you will begin to enjoy the game. It is still M&M with respect to the humor the designers put into the game. And it has one of the most fabulous plotlines I've ever seen in a game (but you have to play it to the end to see it unfold).It is missing the world beauty of Morrowind and many of the good features of the previous M&M's (I guess what I miss most is the previous inventory system - the new one is just annoying).
Recommendation: Play the game you have now for a little while, but consider it a practice game to see how the new systems work. Then, start over with a new game, where you have the stats and skills chosen for what you've assessed will work best of you in MM9. The game will be much easier. Believe me, I almost gave up the first time I played - I kept getting killed and I never had any money at all for anything, including training. Finally I started over and it was like a miracle.
