Replaying this game and having shitloads of fun with it. Honestly, the melee fighting hasn't been topped since, and the movement and moves of your character feel so smooth and natural that swordfights (if you're good at melee) are a joy top do. Kicking, stabbing, disarming, throwing barrels in their faces, cutting rope lines...shit is awesome.
I also took some points in the freeze skill this time. Had a lot of lulz with the orcs in the cliffs part of the game...spook orcs in building, run out, put ice patch on building's exit and watch them slide out of the building into the ravine. Hahaha!
Tempted to replay this as a stealther - could be fun, working with bow and daggers instead. Oh and the graphics hold up really well, thanks to the Source engine. Especially lighting. Took two (non actiobn) pics.
