  1. Really? So now difficulty is: normal=casual gamer, hard=normal torment=hard? This explains something.. well, still hoping Avadon 2 will have a better ability tree and more original fights, i will play it in hard mode. @Dear Potato: Play avernum and geneforce. Now.
  2. Hi, i'm a fan of spiderweb games, and i've played all of avernum and geneforge games liking them immensely (some were better, some were worse, but in the end they remained in my heart). Then i started avadon, and after some time i started getting bored. Then, after a pause of many months, managed to finish it but without much enjoyment. I think the causes of MY dislike (this is purely personal, i'm sure a lot of people liked it)are due to the combat: In normal difficulty you basically have to slay hordes of mobs who are too weak to pose any danger, who lacked particular strategy or tricky game mechanics. I felt the combat challenging only three times in the whole playthrough, all the rest was just boring mob grinding. The ability tree gave some nice powers, but in the end i felt it much more limited than the spell lists of the previus games ( in terms of quantity and usefulness). It really felt like spiderweb did the same mistake wotc did by making D&D 4ed. Combat simplified, boredom increased. I really liked the plot (like all previous games), though. What do you think? Am i crazy or there is someone who share my wiews?
