Yeah, mung demons. I hate mung demons. I still remember the whole map even though I haven't played in half a year.

He should update the artifact's hall first.

You're actually trying to play it? I nearly yanked the cord out of the wall a minute after I entered the scenario!

Mine is like this: Shamgar - Slith with sickness prone trait. Lots of pole and strength, and quickstrike and defense, along with high endurance. Ivanhoe - Nephil with sickness prone trait. High dexterity, tool use, melee weapons, and archery, as well as a little bit of gymnastics. Dahlia - Human with natural mage and sluggish trait. Priest spells, potion making, intelligence, and dabbling in a variety of skills. Vanval - Human with natural mage and sluggish trait. Mage spells, arcane lore, intelligence, and dabbling in a variety of skills. (He gets a blessed sling, which doesn't cause much damage, but I think it's funny for some reason)

Liches have a much better understanding of summoning magic than you do though, they've had hundreds of years to masters it.

My favorite area is Melanchion's Lands. I liked the fights, the discussions with normally hostile monsters, and of course, the GIFTS, which I think is the best group of them so far (I haven't played A4, so I don't know about that one). My least favorite area is the Anama Lands, since most of the fights are with chitraches, which I found a bit boring sometimes. I thought Tranquility and the Vahnatai Lands were so-so, and liked all the other areas.

One would think that giving her your opinion would affect a certain faction's attitude toward you. I mean... I thought that that's what that particular dialogue option was for? She's at Harston Docks, actually.

Disney made a movie of A Wrinkle in Time. The only thing in common was the names, for the most part.

Yeah, me too, but then I'd have to boot up my old Power Mac. Interesting character name Ethermind: "Vraiment," French for "truly."

Nineteen Eighty-Four

Fyoras rule!

I thought Exile was hard, but I was ten years old when I played it. I remember the main slith dungeon took me four hours.

Hmm. Did you read about the 16 bit MS-Dos Subsystem Error it talks about on the bottom of the page?

I tried using it with 2000 and the editor opens, then closes shortly after. I think the scenario editor comes with the demo of Blades of Exile, which is here.

I don't really play much, only when I'm overcome with a bit of nostalgia.

I always liked the alien blade more than the serendipity knife. Problem is that you can't throw it.

I think Zkal was the lich with the ring of endless magery, but I don't really remember.

I always went around through Squiggus and picked up some cash as a courier.

Hmm...Thanks.

I decided to steal some of the ceremonial artifacts of the Fang Clan this time through (And dang is that longbow nice!). I got them out okay, but whenever I piloted my boat into the sections with the Western rapids and the approach to the Fang Clan the artifacts would suddenly disappear. Is this a bug or something? -I simply left the items at Shanker's Tower and slew those mercenaries without them. The items don't disappear anywhere else.
