Is it still worth playing?

You form a party of six at the start, and the races and classes are designed to keep a balance so many different party compositions work. It is a role playing game released in 2001, the last in the Wizardry series. Characters can change class as they progress. The game is played from the first person, with fluid movement in place of grid-based steps, and approaching enemies are visible, so foes never appear suddenly. Combat is turn based, though a continuous-phase mode can be turned on. Monsters scale with the party's level, though only within limits, so a stronger party meets different monsters in the same area. Building a party of your own is the heart of the game, and the invitation to do so is still open.
