Re: Spell ideas

Looks like you've really put some thought into this. Expanding on the spells and their variants cries out to the devs to allow spellcasting for ALL character types (like in DM). This way each could specialize in fire, air, etc. That being said, the entire character engine would have to be re-written...

Re: [Spoilers] Last level not fun.

Kurn,

I loved your rationale.
That was awesome, and I totally agree. Thanks for making me enjoy this even more.

Re: [spoiler] Final Boss discussion

Like the previous posts, I tend to over-analyze things too, so don't take this the wrong way, when I say we should just accept and move on. I try to look at the journey, not the destination. I enjoyed the game immensly, and I also feel that the ending was , err... different than expected. Maybe that...

Re: Average Age ...

I'm 48 and yes, I remember dropping quarters into an original "pong" machine in the early 70's.

Bought my Atari 520 ST just to play "Dungeon Master" in 1987.

Good times... And now, back to the game...

Re: With regret

This is an interesting post, and I am conflicted between my "light" and "dark" responses. On the lighter side, I would encourage you to carry on. These early levels have limited "ranged" weapons, but find the "sling" if you can (I believe it is on the first or...

Re: Enough with the Spiders

Also, don't forget about the blue glowing stone near the entrance to the level. It heals AND cures poison. I ran back there a bunch of times on this level. Wait, can you use these more than once? The health stones have a short "cool down" time. Not sure how long, but I've had to go back m...

Re: Magic is too cumbersome...

If I understand you, I believe that functionality is already there. I prep the spell without casting it, then do other inventory things. When I right click on the caster's wand again, the runes are still selected. It works great. Now the second cast will be a few more hectic "real-time" cl...

Re: Who does the throwing?

Great question, in the original DM, you likely remember it was the highlighted character, of whom you could select. If any XP were to come of it, I imagine it is equally shared, but would like to know what the devs say.

Re: Enough with the Spiders

OK. Level three ramps it up a bit, and I've completed all of it, but I have to say this. Those spiders are friggin awesome! I know it's a game and everyone wants to beat it and "win" but these spiders scared the piss outta me. Yes I almost pee'd me pants. I once screamed out loud when one ...
