This is an older First Person RPG in the likes of Elder Scrolls Morrowind (albeit way not so "epic/big").

The combat is kinda its weak side, but everything else is pretty great!
Graphics aren't bad for its time; gore is pretty hefty with gallons of blood being spilled and dismemberment!

Story is new and pretty interesting, even if it's just another "rebirth of evil god" theme^^

What's really cool is the magic system: you find and learn runes which will unlock spells ranging from level 1-10. The only requirement these have is your mana pool.
You then DRAW the runes on screen with the mouse and if done correctly, the spell is cast (or when hitting "crouch" you can save up to 3 spells for later use).
This is pretty awesome, but I wouldn't want to play as a mage needing to draw more or less complicated lines on screen while being whacked :P
But three spells are a good way to help your melee character.
