First, let me just say that I'm glad there are other reviewers/players out there that are enjoying this game.
Secondly, I didn't know there was a multiplayer option so I thank all those that have clued us in on that.
Thirdly, my impressions on the game. I bought this game when it first came out and enjoyed it from the start.It seems daunting at first, but if you give it time(and refer to the manual if you're a newbie), the options/controls become second nature soon enough.The graphics could be better, but anyone who puts gameplay above graphics will be richly rewarded.The game has a good mix of strategy(turn-based battles/diplomacy), simulation(simplistic resource management), and rpg(character development) elements.The best part of the game is probably the role-playing aspect of the game.Pick (or create) any character...and do whatever you want to him/her.Whether it's improving their abilities, interacting with other characters, or trying to rise through the ranks;you can do it in this game. It gives you the freedom to do all that.This allows for massive replay value. The worst aspect of the game is the slightly tedious nature of the actual battles. They can be engrossing at times...downright boring at others. Still, the game is very involving, addictive, complex(at first), interactive and enjoyable. The objective may be to unify China, but the journey in getting there with your character(s) is the true reason for experiencing this game.
An example of why:when i first bought it, i just booted it up and started playing(not much for reading manuals).I picked a character i didn't care much about, so i thought "just play it for an hour to get the hang of it...then start a real scenario". More than 10 hrs later and I was still playing my "throw-away" scenario(which is still saved on one of the six allotted save options). During this time my ruler character:died, his son took over, Sun Ce demanded I surrendered, I did and became one of his officers,became a ronin, snuck into an empty province, set up my own kingdom again, got beaten and recruited(by Sun Ce again!), decided to be a loyal officer this time and rise in the ranks,got caught in battle against Cao Cao's forces, joined him,etc. Again, all this in my first "gonna play for just an hour"scenario! So if you want that "what's gonna happen next to my character" type of game, this is for you.Whether you are the type that knows you can control your own fate, or enjoy the unpredictability of events around you controlling your fate;I highly recommend you give this game a try/rental for its high replay value. For die-hard fans of the series, you should already have bought it long ago :)
