    I don't know how many people will remember this, but does anyone know if this game has the same plotline as the Pool of Radiance game for Commodore 64, oh so many years ago? Just wondering. I don't think I can count high enough to count the number of hours I spent on that game. Never got very far though. Was too young then.

    This Pool of Radiance and the old Pool of Radiance do NOT share any plot. This is a spiritual successor not an actual sequel.

    [​IMG] I would have loved to have seen them reissue the original Pool 4 parter and Dragonlance trilogy using the new game engine

    The old POR was CLASSIC. I have a couple different disc for it from various colletions of games, and 3 of the code wheels(intact even). I hope this game will be as good

    What I remember from all those gold box series is the insanely huge amount of monsters in every batle. In fact if they made them now there should be like 12 dragons per screen at high levels. Nevertheless they were good games that today gamers can't play because they are difficult to control.
