An idea, and hear me out on this... in Blades of Avernum Editor
Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Tuesday, September 28 2004 13:25 Profile #8 Squirrel, Roses of Reckoning sorta sucked. But, ya know, that's just one out of something like 20 scenarios he's designed. Out of those, I'd say at least 15 are better, most of them much better. Now, on the other hand, there's one of you, and you suck. I think TM has a better track record here. Posts: 3234 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00

Silly Request (to Jeff Vogel) in Blades of Avernum
Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Tuesday, September 28 2004 13:16 Profile #2 Wasn't at a computer where I had e-mail access at the time I wrote that message. Still, I want to see (on the boards) if people think this is worth bothering Jeff over. Posts: 3234 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00
Silly Request (to Jeff Vogel) in Blades of Avernum
Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Tuesday, September 28 2004 11:36 Profile #0 There's about no chance of this actually happening, but in my not at all humble opinion, the "ultimate potion" needs to be replaced in BoA. It's a Potion of Invulnerability. Never mind that an earlier potion is easier to make and works better in every conceivable way (yes, it DOES give invulnerability, and for a greater duration), it's a potion of INVULNERABILITY, man! Seriously, just put Knowledge Brews back in as creatable potions or something. They'd go a long way towards letting parties grow at high levels, when it takes a bazillion skill points to increase a stat by one point. Posts: 3234 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00
Jeff's rep and the Perils of Creating a Scenario Editor in General
Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Tuesday, September 28 2004 11:33 Profile #6 quartex - Well, maybe he shouldn't have made BoE. He would have never had me as a customer if he hadn't. Anyway, part of it is that a scenario editor is HARD to make, because people might do things that are totally unexpected. However, several possible expected uses in BoE don't work at all. Petrification Touch, for instance. It's listed as a possible special ability for monsters. If you give it to a monster... ...it diseases players lightly on hit, and does nothing to other monsters. Awesome. Acidic Weapons also count as Lifesaving items. Wow, what sense does that make? Several monsters have nonsense abilities in the base scenario file because monsters with fields weren't added to that database correctly. Meh. The Lyceum has a more complete list of stuff that doesn't work in BoE - and a lot of it seems really obvious. Posts: 3234 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00

A modest proposal in Blades of Avernum Editor
Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Monday, September 27 2004 15:02 Profile #22 Dark Elf, I hope you realize that this thread was long in its grave when you posted in it. The original posters in it don't give a flying crap about it any more, I'm wagering, so your contribution is meaningless and annoying. Don't post in threads on page 17 next time!

Why does Jeff have a bad rep? in General
Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Friday, September 24 2004 09:55 Profile #1 The support he offered for BoE was in many ways less than exceptional - and, at times, less than acceptable. So far, however, I believe that he has been quite supportive of the BoA community. Posts: 3234 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00

Imban Shake Before Using Member # 75	written Wednesday, September 22 2004 17:42 Profile #1 They're fine, so long as you either have some commitment to designing or each part can stand alone as an adventure. Half of an adventure which ends in a cliffhanger is no fun, especially when the second part may never be released. Posts: 3234 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00
