  • +1

    I love this game so much, would definitely recommend if you like the old school bioware type games and are open to trying an older game. IMO I feel they play (in terms of story/gameplay) quite well in this day and age even with controller support on my ROG Ally.
    But just like many older games its a pain to get working, ini file changes, updates, xml changes etc. I for some reason have to open it up directly from the install file as the "steam" play doesn't work for me.
    Still though I love the story and its totally worth it to me.

    • I have very fond memories of this game. I still have the PC version steel case.

  • Not a all time low, but did it come out in 2005 or 2007?

    • came out on og xbox in 2005, the special edition came Feb 2007 for PC. There is no, "regular edition", they just made a lot of improvements / changes porting it to windows. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jade_Empire#Jade_Empire:_Speci…

      It's weird, in OzBargain expired deals, I've seen it for $3 and also 75% off so i guess it's regular price has actually gone up.

      I've remembered a fair bit about this game since I posted, its basically medieval Chinese DnD using the same engine and mechanics as the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic games ?
