Product Description:
*** This is Original & Full U.S. BIG BOX 4-CD Version! ** NOT the Dual Jewel Case 2-CDs** Like advanced Dungeons & Dragons? The Planescape multiverse is composed of a series of "planes" (other dimensions) that rotate around a central city, Sigil, like spokes on a wheel. The character creation feature is just the beginning, your character actually adapts to fit your own personal gaming style.
Amazon.com Review:
In Planescape: Torment, you play a nameless, scarred, immortal on a quest to discover his past, his identity, and his role in the conflict over the nature of reality. The brilliant role-playing and adventure game focuses on the "Planescape" campaign setting of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons game, and combines the best elements of Interplay's phenomenally successful Baldur's Gate with an enthralling story line, well-written dialogue, and beautiful artwork and graphics.
In an inspired choice, Black Isle Studios, the developer of Planescape: Torment, has chosen to provide the player, at least initially, with as little details about the story as possible. After viewing a mysterious introductory movie, players guide The Nameless One on a journey through the bleak city of Sigil and its underground catacombs. The story leads from there to the bizarre realities of alternate planes of existence, where belief and thought determine the laws of physics. Through dialogue with hundreds of nonplayer characters, puzzle solving, and point-and-click combat, The Nameless One discovers clues about his identity and the circumstances surrounding his condition.
Gamers overwhelmed by detailed role-playing games will find Planescape: Torment easier to grasp; players can freely switch between three different character classes (Fighter, Mage, Thief) for The Nameless One as the game progresses, and learning the combat and magic system--with a simple point-and-click interface--takes only a few minutes. Literally hundreds of weapons, items, spells, and "tattoos" can be collected and affixed to The Nameless One or any of the several party members acquired during the course of the game. If you're a fan of role-playing or adventure games, Planescape: Torment's engrossing world creates a must-have gaming experience. --Doug Radcliffe
Pros: - Fascinating, unique setting
- Engrossing story
- Rich graphics and spell effects
- Intriguing dialogue
Cons: - Zoomed-in perspective tends to limit combat to close range
- Long load times
Amazon.com Product Description:
Explore Sigil, the City of Doors. The doors serve as the town's gateway to everything and everywhere that matters. Step through one door and enter the halls of Ysgard, or turn down a particular alley and discover the Abyss. There are more gateways in Sigil than can be imagined. But there's a lot more out there than just Sigil. Get outside the city and there's the planes themselves: the throne of the gods, the battleground of the eternal Blood War, and home to more horrors and wonders than ever existed on any prime world. There's enough crusades, exploits, treasures, and mysteries to keep a band of adventurers busy for centuries to come. All it takes is the right door, so step right through.

Short and sweet: If you like RPGs, and you like games that aren't straightforward and simple-minded, then you simply need to buy this. I have a friend who's not really into RPGs, and he didn't enjoy this. Other reviewers have already covered the important parts, so I'll end with this:
In a time of World of Warcraft and XBOX Live, it's nice to see that games like this are still collected rave reviews.
Games are only as good as the experience playing them. Because of this, ... Read More

This is one of the best RPGs ever made. Only fallout 1/2 and Baldur's gate are close to competing. The reason for Torment's incredible effect is it's dialog. The story is outright amazing. I have fond memories of spending like 4 hours wandering around the "brothel for slating intellectual lusts" just talking to people. The game is a work of art and plays like an intense sci-fi/fantasy novel. They had to have written at least a novel's worth of dialog.
On a less positive note, ... Read More

For some reason, back when this came out I had no warning. All of a sudden it appeared at the Video Game store. I must say that I typically enjoy the products Black Isle puts out and I got quite excited when I saw they had released something in the Planescape setting. I'm probably one of the few die-hard Planescape fans out there. I own all the AD&D books and supplements, as well as the Collectible Card Game. Also, my friends and I are slowly working through playing them all!
Anyway, ... Read More

Quite simply the best game I've ever played. This is my first review online, I did a pc search for best online rated games and this one came up--want to add mine to keep it there.
The planescape universe combines the best elements of all rpg worlds. If you loved warcraft, starcraft, black isle games--now obsidian games this is the best of the best.
The marketing of this game was bad...the name and the guy on the cover could put alot of people...especially parents off. But, this ... Read More

An excellent excellent game, great plot, great setting,and great characters. Its not for people who are looking for a diablo 2 clone or a game where combat is the only thing to do. If you want a good plot, great dialogue, and a captivating story then this is the game for you. A must buy for any RPG lover.
