This utterly fascinating fact brought to you by our resident cryptician and provocateur.

Honestly, I'm not certain I want to know what he means... Where did the registration barrier end up again?

Anything after Formello. EDIT: Which Jeff says is 1/5 of the game, but it sure isn't timewise (the game is bigger), though it could be areawise, and it is a fair bit of play.

That demo seemed a whole lot shorter than the others. :( How long's the rest of the game compared to others? EDIT: Oh, and he needs to officially release it so I can register already! Time to go see what's available in the giant lands by Fort Monastery.

Hmmm, I've been to the barrier and I think I've done everything I can... But I can't seem to complete the quests dealing with the mining cave. I killed the guy creating the undead. I also killed EVERY SINGLE monster in the the mine. No one wants to give me any money for it though, so now i'm angry! So can I not complete those quests untill after I register, or is my game just screwed up? Posts: 4 | Registered: Sunday, December 11 2005 08:00 |

Okay, you mean the mines by Fort Draco, correct? Have you talked to the commander of the fort? Who have you talked to? Did I even guess the right quest? Please be specific, in short. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games." Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

I believe he means the "mines" in the Formello area. Some of those quest payoffs are crippled as part of the registration barrier evidently. As I was saying, no way is this demo 1/5 of the game. I'd say it covers about 1/6 the area (max) and maybe 1/10-1/15 the time required to play it doing all the quests. The game is as big or bigger than any previous Avernum, though it's a bit hard to gauge in the same way due to all terrain being continuous "outdoors". It takes longer to get places as often as not. -------------------- A4 Items • A4 Singleton • G4 Items • G4 Forging • G4 Infiltrator • NR Items • The Lonely Celt Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

Sorry, I meant the mines north of Draco. I talked to both the owner of the mines and the Fort Leader of Draco itself. Also, I can't complete the quest involving the sage that wanted the Vahnati crystal, which I believe you get from the Vahnati in the caves north of Draco.

Okay, that isn't the right crystal (that one figures into the game later, though). You need to go back to the mine and check some cabinets... And I honestly don't know why you can't finish that quest... you should just be able to get a reward from Commander Anford. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

You could always order by phone at 10 AM tomorrow morning, if the online version isn't available by then. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I finished both of those quests. The only ones I've got left are "Metal for Dawdy" (which I doubt ever ends), "Translate Scrolls" (the ones from Monastery), "Go to Castle," "Wanted: Graymold," "Rat Hunt" (I've been through the whole region and have 4; I'm not looking for more), and "Message to Silvar." Some of those are from the job boards. I can't order at 10 AM tomorrow as I'll be taking a chemistry final until 11. Besides which the phone frightens me. :/ -------------------- There are two kinds of game players...those who are newbies, and those who were. Posts: 322 | Registered: Monday, April 12 2004 07:00 |

quote:You can finish the rat hunt (try revisiting somewhere you already found rats) and the graymold quests, but the latter only if you are willing to steal out from under someone's nose. Not sure how many players have noticed, but you CAN steal openly (seen) a certain number of times in any town or area before the locals will get up in arms against you. If you are going to be a shameless thief, choose your targets carefully.

The game is pretty darn' big. It's hard to even remember it all. As for the giant lands across from Fort Monastery: this is definitely a case of 'so near and yet so far.' -------------------- We're not doing cool. We're doing pretty. Posts: 3335 | Registered: Thursday, September 4 2003 07:00 |

No one have registered yet? I have some questions: Are the vahnatai lands availible in this game? Tower of magi is ok now? Cotra has been rebuilt? Can you go to upper avernum or the surface? I really hope that in avernum 5 people may go to the Avernum area in Valorim. What happened to the crystal cave to the west of cotra? I liked that place...

There is a crystal cave. I'm not sure if it is 'the' crystal cave. The wishing well is still there (and thanks to the power of 'grep' I know what it does in this game). Posts: 148 | Registered: Tuesday, December 7 2004 08:00 |

Do tell, Skippy. I could tell the well was trying to do something, but couldn't figure out what exactly. There are many nods to and relics of old familiar places throughout this retread through Avernum, and you can see how time has changed some of them. But I could not find any hint of the crystal caves in the Eastern Gallery, and I was expecting something to be there.
