Ah bother, I've long lost the escort. I'll go look anyway - thanks. I must have missed that one, though I thought I checked everywhere... Posts: 3 | Registered: Monday, December 19 2005 08:00 |

OK, so I have found Rentar's fortress behind Frt Remote and cleared out half of it - the upper level with Vahnahtai assistance, but then I lost them. But I need a key for the other half and I have no idea where to find it. I have 2 copies of the crystal key, one of which was in a Vahnahtai box by the locked door... I've done all the quests I can think of - still need Grall Ihrno's fine waveblade, but I am now stuck with this or getting to the Abyss. I guess there's a back route somewhere - but where?

Here's my first impressions: I sent this in email as feedback. I wonder if I'm the only one who cares about the mouse-heavy nature ot it? ===== A couple of comments on the game so far (only half an hour, so not plot points yet) - * I love the inventory window, the quick use slots, the larger viewing area, the organised save slots. * I really super hate the loss of the keyboard shortcuts. I rarely touched the mouse in Avernum 3 or Blades - and as I'm prone to tennis elbow, this is more than just a little idiosyncracy of mine. In fact, it's so bad that my glee at getting Avernum 4 has turned to a bitter disappointment. Right now I'm sorta wishing I hadn't trusted you and registered without even trying it. I'm serious. It is BAD. It causes me physical pain. Please, please, *please* bring back the Avernum 3 keyboard options - 'l' command to look, 't' for talk, target selection for distance attacks by letter not mouseclick. Likewise spell selection. And please do it soon! Do it in a 1.1 version and I will update immediately and love you for ever. And while you're at it, please let the arrow keys be useful in selecting save slots, 'escape' key choices etc. ======== Posts: 3 | Registered: Monday, December 19 2005 08:00 |
