You're talking about Earth's moon. On Eschalon, maybe the moon is always on the opposite side of the planet from the sun. But the reference in the explanation is probably from the sundial feature of the GUI that shows the time of day. Excellent points! :) I'd never taken any notice of the graphics ...

Can you see where the moon is in this game when it gets dark though? What I mean is that sunset and moonrise aren't actually directly related in the real world anyway. Sometimes the moon rises very late at night and sometimes during the day. There are times when you can clearly see it in the daytime...

:P Let me rephrase: I want to build a character that's based on exploiting bugs that are currently in the game, not cheat using the editor or any other tools. I'm still at a loss for a good name though. Lance Armstrong? Or is that too soon? :mrgreen: No that name's perfect. And there's your exploit...

Always hated it when a game has dumbed down features but it says that the game is hard because you can raise the hitpoints of the enemies. For me difficulty is so much more than combat. Like I mentioned before, as my ranger I felt the need to take foraging to be able to get enough food (I was going...

I've read quite a few reactions to the game, and what people seem to like most about Book III is exploration design and puzzles. Nobody says combat is the best part. So if you make combat more difficult people will probably not like that. Personally I find it very dependent on how it is set up. Is ...

Also, I have reached the point in the underground portion where you can pick one of two stars. One takes you to a place where you have to fight for your life, and the other takes you to a room with a door that I cannot pick the lock on. Is there a switch in the room? I am trying to get across the r...

I think in another thread he mentioned that Malkur's face was seen right at the start of Book I. It probably was, but there are two problems here: first, even with my good memory, I don't remember that (it being years since I played E1), and second, new players who begin with Book III aren't going ...

Nice one mate. I'll have to steal that.

yes- I put in a water flask that I set to exactly 5 pounds. Is there anything else in the game that helps trigger this? It's not on any quest. Maybe try taking the flask out and making the weight up another way with a few items. There are several with exact weights in lbs. It might work? You should...

When I first went down there, I found the room of chests (NW) next to his room first. I did not see anyone around. Naturally, I had to see what was in the chests. Later when I can across him, he attacked first. I figured that he was a monster like the marauders in the SeaFairer's Guild dungeon, so ...

I think that the best clue was in the description: "You see a basic oak chest sitting upon some kind of floor plate" I often rush reading the captions, or miss them, so the first thing I tried was 5 red things (potion bottles). But - once I actually read the description again properly - th...

It creates the feeling of an artificial end. You nailed it there. It felt completely artificial and tacked on. Any sense of a great good or evil, or of a final revelation to a tightly constructed story, simply evaporated leaving it looking all rather lame. More like a piece of pop music that is sim...

Pretty much every game of this type that I've ever played (and I've played a heck of a lot over 25+ years, starting with text only games on 5" floppies…) has basically the same ending. It goes something like this: "Congratulations, your valiant efforts have finally saved the world from the...

I hope you guys won't kill me, because this bug can give you infinite money. Which might have ruined my game, so I'm using it only once. Here it is you slackers: When you kill the scorpions at rock hammer mine, you can get the 300gols from the dwarf there(forgot his name) every time you start the d...

And there's a bug - if you kill the scorpions before you talk to Logi, you can't access the second level at all. I think that you can actually kill all the scorpions first but the key is you just mustn't tell Logi that you've killed them until he's given you the quest "officially". So you...
