Simply one of the best computer games I've ever played. The world is fantastic, real and historic. The combat is difficult, but again realistic, and you level skills by working on those skills, which adds to the immersion. Want to be better at fighting? Find a sword master and actually undergo some training tutorials. Want to get better at archery? You're probably going to have to go hunting. Want to learn to read (peasants would be illiterate)? Find a scribe to teach you, and actually complete some reading challenges to replicate learning to read. Henry is a sympathetic, genuine character, with plenty of flaws as well as good intentions, and I wanted to see him succeed. A great story with lovely moments, and decisions that actually affect the world. Just waiting for a sequel so Henry can continue his story...
