While this game is the sequel to the lackluster Untold Legends: Brotherhood of the Blade it is fortunately getting pretty good previews. SOE has apparently listened to the complaints of the consumers and corrected many of the issues of the first one. We will find out March 13, 2006 if the game is really going to be what the first one tried to.
