New PoR Preview

A brand new Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor preview has surfaced at LoadedInc.com. A snippet to follow:

    Graphically Pool of Radiance is one stunning game. All the backgrounds are rendered in 2D with the characters being fully 3D. The backgrounds are vibrant really pulling you into the game with their sense of scale and realism. The character animations are smooth and fluid with each character being easily identifiable, this really helps in the combat situations when the turn-based mode kicks in. Characters will also perform different actions depending on the weapons they are carrying adding realism to the combat, and all the different weapons will be visible on the characters. The spell effects are top notch and with around 100 spells, either completely new or taken from the 3rd edition AD&D rules, there will be plenty of opportunity to experiment.
