    Pretty much the same as the other two, which I did enjoy, for the most part but this one I feel is a little imbalanced though in some aspects. Eschalon has some issues that were never really addressed I feel, the camping thing, basically you fight one enemy you have to find a place to camp, fight another, find a place to camp, then you can get jumped while camping, you will do lots ofPretty much the same as the other two, which I did enjoy, for the most part but this one I feel is a little imbalanced though in some aspects. Eschalon has some issues that were never really addressed I feel, the camping thing, basically you fight one enemy you have to find a place to camp, fight another, find a place to camp, then you can get jumped while camping, you will do lots of quick saving and camping cause you never know what can happen. The game seems to favor Ranged and/or pure casters, going melee is probably the worse thing to do in many situations while ranged and kiting is far easier.
    I lost my liking for this game with Eschalon 3, not that it is much different than 1 and 2, but I finally got tired of it. Graphics never changed either, very small graphics running in 1024x768.
    Music is fantastic though through entire series as is the sound effects.    … Expand

    The last Eschalon is not as good as the previous one, which is bit of shame. Great trilogy however. [March 2014]

    A hardcore RPG not forgiving mistakes is quite a good thing. But it's not suited for everyone even though you are a fan of the genre. Still, among the indie RPG projects it's a well-executed piece of work.

    Eschalon: Book III is a very classic RPG that starts too slowly. It's a game rich of contents but you have to overcome a big wall to get the gold.
