This is a historical low. Games are cheaper on CDKeys if you pay in USD. In AUD the game is $5.99.
I like the mediaeval "Germany" setting; a long time ago I played a wonderful DOS RPG called Darklands which was also set in the "Holy Roman Empire". You could travel to any major historical town you wanted, though the towns weren't that different from one another, just a series of 2D images. It had a "low magic" setting: there were prayers (you had to research the saints first) and alchemy (applying or throwing potions in combat), some mythological creatures and stereotypical witches (definitely not modern Wicca). There were also primitive firearms that were fun to use. The game had an interesting armour penetration system.
