Although the 3D interfaces are mostly an improvement, in many ways, it seems to me that the graphics have gotten worse, not better, in ways that really shouldn't be necessary. The buttons in the original Exile actually looked pretty cool. But ever since Avernum, they've been becoming more and more cartoony and pixelated. The text that Vogel uses for dialogues and descriptions is the most bland typeface imaginable. Same thing for the main menu screen.

This may seem like a silly complaint. But it really weakened my gaming experience in Avernum and Geneforge. Having an elegant looking font and non-cartoonish interface makes the whole game feel more professional, and it isn't a matter of artistic talent. Just substitute Times instead of Geneva or whatever.

I'm also curious: I loved the music that came with Exile II, but that is the last music that ever came with a Spiderweb game. Is it actually owned by someone else? If not, (or if so) is it possible to just add it in as a optional feature in future Spiderweb games? And if a reasonably talented musician came along and offered their assistance, could they use the basic themes from that music to create newer music?

Final note: I really loved the actual name "Exile" and was a little saddened when it was changed for the sake of the remake. I realize it's too late to change that now, but I thought I'd throw my two cents in.

This is pure torture knowing that A4 will be available soon for all you mac users. As a windows/linux user myself, just knowing that people are playing the game when I can't will be agonizing, not to mention reading about people playing it here on the boards.

To the point, Melora is now inside the cave a second time, with Lisha and Sequoia. Edith and Tuulentekija are trapped in a maze-like cave and looking for a way out. Filbert is somewhere deep in the mountain, and is getting affected by the constant barrage of illusions, because he's seeing pirates that aren't there.

I couldn't find Elton John on that list, and he's a piano player that had a song that was vaguely tied to the theme of Russia. I feel cheated and used by this poll. Please return those minutes of my life, or more carefully consider future polls prior to posting them.

You used 1)? I didn't see it. I'll look better next time. And Thuryl, sometimes I have to say something. I often try not to say anything or just ignore it, but I couldn't let it go this time. maybe because I helpt Master xan with some graphics.

I wonder if there is a connection between Thralni's graphics and scenarios not getting finished...looks like a 1 to 1 correlation thus far... :rolleyes:

The game is tons better as a member. Especially now that I'm starting to break into higher levels. I need a quick 5k? No problem. Give 5 mins of thieving. I need 100k? No problem. An hour of runecrafting gives me 500 nature runes I can sell for up to 300 each. Soon it will be law runes which I can use to rapidly increase my own magic level or sell for up to 1k individually or about 5-800 each when selling in bulk.

What I really want to know is what Wagner is doing on the list.

[Edit: Some characters come out dysf?nctional.]

—Alorael, who has to say that Dvorák wins in that listing. Symphony from the New World.
