Item variety is utterly terrible compared to FFXI, which is the first MMORPG I played, so maybe I'm just spoiled.

No, you won't be able to use the shops. The Anama will hate you forever, unless you use the editor.

I believe everyone in every town on Bigail attacks you as well, but I'm not sure. That may just be Avernum 3.

I dislike most MMORPGs, really. Although they have the potential to be good, I haven't seen any truly great ones.

Final Fantasy XI was okay, I guess. It's huge, there's lots to do besides just fighting, such as fishing and crafting items, and you could join a party of up to six people to fight monsters. It also has an overarching plotline. However, it costs a ridiculous US$12 a month to play, and it's impossible to get very far from the home country until you get much stronger and join a party.

Runescape costs US$5 a month, and has a smaller free version. It also has fishing and item crafting, and it also has minigames, unlike FFXI. You can get to most cities without getting into too much trouble from monsters if you're sneaky. However, you can't join parties, there's far less item variety, and item crafting is too expensive to be very useful. It also has no plot whatsoever.

Most other free MMORPGs I've seen are nothing but combat, combat, combat, and I'm not remotely interested in those. Maybe some day I'll make my own inexpensive MMORPG with lots of playing variety, but if I do, it's a very long way off.

(I like the stump monsters in Maple Story, though. They amuse me.)

Yes, that is the latest version. Yes, inconsistancies in terminology are common in both the help file and the editor application itself. Jeff refuses to fix it. You get used to it eventually.

As the sign near the button says, to press the button and survive, you must have Class D (I think it's D, I haven't played the game in a while) Magical Protection. To get this, you must ask Ahonar about "platypus", as hinted to by the obelisk at the far northwest of Footracer Province later in the game. You must also have at least five points of Bizarre Fauna Lore on one character.

Those graphics are only temporary. The graphics that will actually be used are not done yet. The graphics will, however, be animated, a la Geneforge. Personally, I think the Avernum graphics are horrible. I prefer the Exile graphics, then the Geneforge graphics, then the Avernum graphics.

Jeff doesn't like people making fanfics based on his games, AA. Also, if we have several categories, we can put the winners of each category in an Overal Best contest.
Of course, my "Life In A Fish Tank" sound is guaranteed to win, so it would really be a competition for second best overall entry.
