Hi, I've played through Avadon 1 and am starting Avadon 2. Disclaimer: I have not read the entire thread.
The OP mentions sortable quest list. I would go further. Have 3 categories - active quests, repeatable quests like drake skins, and "check back later". Right now I have about 15 quests and finding info can be annoying.
Some quests are vague and it's not really clear what to do. At the very least, it would be nice if you could ping the *zone* you should be in for a given quest. Just as an example, I got a quest to get a hunting token in Avadon. His description on where to go was kinda vague, and the quest text in the journal was not much better. (Side note, I'm not looking for info on this quest, it was just an example).
I also want to jump on the "toggle" bandwagon with respect to keys like "g" or "i". I am guessing you don't do this because letters choose items in the inventory or on the ground, but there's got to be some way to work around this.
Thanks!
