The original AoW is so cool, I played countless hundreds of hours in that game. The thing I liked was how could build a really good character from the ground up. He would start as a warrior with crappy stats and no skills, and you could make him in to a healer with archery and first strike and spell casting and great stats. I loved the underground too, something I will miss in this game.
