More items for the shops yes, Better variety more magical rings, bracelets etc. Perhaps somehow a merge between Artifact Hall and HLPM. So like the library, some items from every scenario would be available. Oh and at high levels like 60 and above the only monsters no matter the difficulty level in the arena are dragons. Maybe some more high ended badies. Possibly have the HLPM fit into the Avernum world in some way. I now Machrone does that to some extent. Perhaps thoughthere could be more.

Yes get help from the vampire then kill him. Because he is a vampire so naturally should be eliminated.

How are Khoth and Box pronounced differently. To me they're both Kawth, Bawx "O" makes an aw sound, right. It should never say its own name "O" unless there's an e one letter over or its one of the numerous exceptions.

Exactly, I don't imagine a lot of designers feel like putting that much time and effort into a scenario. But time influencing outcomes is a much better alternative to; pick 1 if you want to join lord evil, pick 2 if you want to eat a cookie, pick 3 if you want to stay with lord good.

Fer Real that would have been the best thing to do. Its still really minor Smoo can work on that next scenario. But one thing I really think somebody should have caught was the duplicate text in the outro. It was obviously copied then pasted, twice.

Yeah I cant understand why none of the beta testers found the typos. If English isn't your native language Im sure it was theirs. Oh and you need to get graymold salve form that wizard in the hut to cure Sigmund.

Has any one else had problems with the alter in the lake or was it just me?

Linear non-linear whatever. I suppose its up to the designer there's more than a single personality, so Scenarios should be the same. All linear scenarios would be just as boring as all non-linear scenarios. Variety is fun, I really don't think one is better than the other just biased one way or the other depending on the person aii.

Yes to the boat problem good thing I bought two because one disappeared when I reentered town.

Oh and that alter in the middle of the lake does not work. It asks for one Character to sit in the chair you select one, but then nothing happens. At least there is no dialogue box to indicate anything happened.

Oh and there are several spelling mistakes in the opening script and first section of the scenario Lermer sp? and goblin caves area. That's really minor but still. They're more wrong words such as cook instead of cooked an example. Im surprised nobody noticed they're really obvious.

We don't all have endless hours to replay and experiment with scenarios. A scenario that's totally non-linear is like those choose-your-own-adventure books, they seem cool but you always wonder what would happen if your choices were different. I rarely replay scenarios so linearity is a must. That's not to say side quests and such shouldn't be included its just the main story should be very linear and easy to access. Perhaps one or two major choices along the line would be cool but more are just annoying.

edit: Cut scenes are sweet no matter what. Its better than reading page after page of text. Though I will say cut scene dialogue should be displayed in larger sized font if that's possible. Also along the lines of the custom sounds petition thing, voices for cut scenes would be even better, though that's probably just a dream.

Bahssikava Laser Puzzle 3 in Blades of Avernum
Shaper
Member # 247
Profile Homepage #5
quote:
Written by Kelandon: I tried to get rid of all of these and thought I had. Where did you experience this? Which sources were at fault?

Hmm its been a while since I played it. But Im pretty sure it was the source just right of the initial hallway with the alternating beam. I did the puzzles in an odd order though finishing the third then first then second, according to your walkthrough any way. After completing the puzzle on the right of the first hallway the game really slowed down. Not so much the whole dungeon level, but more the hallway directly leading up to the three un-powered doors. Once my party moved away from that area the game resumed normal speed. I am sure now that the afore mentioned source was to blame for slow downs in that specific hallway. I remember checking the un-powered doors after finishing all the other puzzles, and I noticed no slow down. So yeah the first source to the right of the alternating beam, or directly in front of it I guess you could say. Hope this helps. Respek..

I found the best way to deal with all 3 puzzles was to enter combat mode. That way you have 4 hands instead of one. If one char gets trapped behind a laser by exiting combat mode they usually come to the correct side of the laser. They really weren't all that hard. Though the sound effect when all were powered slowed the game considerably.

Article - Party vs. Designer in Blades of Avernum
Shaper
Member # 247

Personally in a Scenario I don't like missing things since I rarely have time to play through twice. So I really don't think I would have liked the decision of going North or South from the Guard post. When I play a scenario I don't want anything left undone. The designer should always point the party in the correct direction to get the most from the plot. Perhaps not force but nudge the party a bit.
