The premise is what sucked me in as well -- that, and the level of customization available. In many ways it reminded me of Fable 2, which I also loved, but it was more serious where Fable 2 was sometimes a little over the top in its goofiness. Take a look at what I told Emmy in her reply above -- pretty much sums up all of what I loved about this game. I'm already planning to play it again, considering different paths to take, and different decisions, and basically -- aside from the boss battles -- have a totally different experience with the next go-round than with this one.
*reads comment to Emy* Hmmmm. Maybe this will find its way onto my Christmas list after all. It sounds like an awesome game. Will definitely have to look into it more.
There are also several options in the game if you want your character to pursue a romance with one of his/her companions. I developed a total fangirl crush on one of them. XD
