Might & Magic IX (PC) (2002) (New World Computing) (1/2)
25There's no denying that the original release of M&MIX was broken - which isn't especially surprising considering that the game was rushed out the door during its' pre-alpha stage by a desperate publisher (3DO).
However, once you get the inofficial "TELP patch", Might & Magic IX becomes a reasonably playable (if admittedly often uninspiring and underwhelming) traditional CRPG experience. Although the 3D graphics are simplistic and often look unfinished, the controls are fast and responsive, the interface is easy to use and the music is rather nice.
The primary attraction of M&MIX lies in the skill- and promotion-centered character development system carried over reasonably well from M&M 6-8. Fans of the series who can overcome the game's unpolished nature and occasionally dreary presentation will probably find NWC's ill-fated last release to be an almost decent game (post-patch, that is).
