Re: Healing injuries w/o wasting potions

What I think would be cool (perhaps for LOG3?) is have a "Medical Skill" As soon as medicine gets involved, people will ride the whole 'that's not realistic!' train even harder though. When its a magic crystal or potion; you can happily suspend reality and let it slide, but splint up that...

Re: Spoilers. Finished it, here's my review and thoughts.

Good review; having now just completed the game, I agree with most of it. Fortunately, I completed the Runemaster's challenge straight away and completed the Pyramid shortly after the Ruins of Desarune (thinking 'that staff looks mighty important~ better snatch'; though never making the link that yo...

Re: The design of special attack can be done better.

If you got rid of it, no-one would ever basic attack unless out of energy since invariably the charged strikes are superior individually; making the choice to blitz or get everyone to make strong attacks is an interesting one. Mixing the two is even better; and you can charge whilst doing the old sq...

Re: Pie

The pie follows the same format as the earlier pyramid puzzles around making offerings. Specifically, the note with the Mirror Gauntlets describes that they are a gift to the Glutton, who needed to be put in six coffins. So find the chamber like that. Fittingly for a glutton, the hidden treasure is ...

Re: altar of water

SpoilerShow
Center of Sleet Island next to the flooded dungeon. You need to activate the light bridge to get there. By the sounds of it, you haven't done the pyramid and the desert.

Re: The Decline of Video Games

Mm, its like saying movies took a sharp decline in quality because of VHS making them more portable. The problem is not the consoles, but rather the 'take no risks' business-model the corporate side of gaming industry has adopted. Because people will always buy X if it has Y, that sort of thing is d...

Re: Quest for Glory on GoG

Will we be able to take our hero from one to the next regardless of version we play? Daniel. Yes, I used the hero from the VGA QFG 1, put him into the Remake of QFG 2, and he then proceeded fine onto the original QFG 3 (as a Paladin). Compatibility was a big priority for the remake group, if I reme...

Re: Quest for Glory on GoG
