Lord of Midnight was a piece of art. A game of epic scale that managed to combine army-rallying and war strategy with adventuring and sneaking behind enemy lines. It was also a product of a time when everything was possible and single-person would do everything from graphics to programming to writing (in this case a substantial novella). It seeps nostalgia from every pore. Unfortunately it won't sit well with today's gamers. Not just because the low resolution graphics, but because it requires much patience and learning from own mistakes. The culture has long shifted to hand-guiding and "succeed on first try" mentality.
