While checking out the PC games at Wally World (Wal-Mart), I saw a cheap $10 game called 'Fate' by WildTangent, and decided to pick it up
Upon installation and entering the game, I was greeted with painfull graphics and a horribly simple character customizer.
Choosing a human, I was then prompted to choose a pet to fight beside me. I went with a fox which I named Kurama.
The game starts with a poorly voiced over introduction, and dumps you in a sort of "world selection" area. The character and combat are all controlled 3rd person, almost identical to Runescape Classic.
So what makes this game special?

Pros:
It's $10
The games surprisingly well built and hard to break.
The graphics aren't "too" bad for 3rd person.
The magic system is pretty fun.
Wide Variety of Weapons and Armours
Enchanting is kinda fun
----------------
Cons:
You spent $10 on it.
It's a game perfect for multiplayer.... with NO multiplayer support.
Quests consist of going to X dungeon, to Y floor, and killing Z. Sometimes they spice it up and tell you to kill 10 X. Yeah, quests suck eggs.
There are 4 dungeons, which don't really stand out from each other. Oh, and you want to clear a dungeon? They all have 2,147,483,647 floors. Manage to make it past that? Computer Crash!

Q) What happens if I try to go to level 2,147,483,648?
A) You have the worst computer crash you can imagine.
Repetitive beyond belief.
Horrible leveling system. Just. Horrible.
Overall I'd rate this game 2/5
It's not the worst game I have ever played. Thats it. Period.
