quote:True true, though I'm not that much of a masochist. I just wish A3 was a little more rounded, I don't like being able to kill a boss in two or three hits with normal weapons. I agree that I could always play BoA senarios that are hella hard...I guess it just something about fighting in E3 that is just so heart pounding. Daemon lords and Devine Thud's are very amusing. I've always found that less tactics and resorece conservation were needed in the Avernum games, besides I miss all the spells, and casting "Kill" on chickens. I think a mod should be made to incorperate the Exile engine into Avernum. Then again...I am just a plain whiner. Posts: 2 | Registered: Wednesday, May 30 2007 07:00 |

Ok, so I have a couple peeves about Avernum, don't get me wrong though, it's an awsome game. What ever happened to its difficulty? Sure it has the settings that go all the way up to "Torment", but even that's not enough. An example of this is a character around lvl 6 doing (on average) 100 damage points in A3 to the alien slime. I remember in Exile 3, my level 36 fighter rarely hit above 60 dp (not counting assasination) on creatures that were much lower than him, even with some really decked out gear. I made sure when I did my tests, all Avernum games were up to date, but it still seemed like "Torment" wasn't painfull enough (I'm a masochist)! In Exile 3 it took me almost 8 hours to battle through the Tower of Magi, countless char. editor spams and lots of dead mega demons. Even the Alien Slime took a little bit of time to chop into itty-bitty peices. It's becasue of this that I have refrained from buying the full fledged Avernum versions, it became a bit monotonus when one hits the higher levels. I sneeze on a demon and it suddenly takes 271 dp, flips me the bird and hauls ass outta there! I want a difficulty setting that is "Diabolical", it's not fun enough it I'm not tearing chunks out of my face! Please help this pathetic old sot! Posts: 2 | Registered: Wednesday, May 30 2007 07:00 |
