Re: Who's getting Dragon Age?

The game has four difficulty levels from Easy to Nightmare. Even at Normal level some of the battles are intense. The first boss (ogre) in the tower gives you a taste of things to come. You will have to make use of the pause button and customize how your party members should react to certain situati...

Re: Who's getting Dragon Age?

I do not understand the vast difference in price between the United States and Australia. The exchange rate difference is only 8 cents. I paid $59.99 (free shipping) for the Collector's edition from Amazon. The local WalMart has it for $64.82. The regular edition can be had for $49.99. But for 130 i...

Re: Who's getting Dragon Age?

Dragon Age is a blast. I am having fun playing the game. The beginning is a little linear, but that is to be expected to setup the basic story. You do have a choice of one of six origins depending on the character you build. The combat is real time with a pause feature. You can customize how your he...

Re: October/November Update

Anticipation! The cruelty of it all! But this little update will help ease the withdrawal symptoms! But for a full cure I need Book II. But if more time will help the quality I can wait! Oh, the humanity!

Re: The Age of Decadence

If this game gets any more polish the brightest may blind us! Still waiting for this game. I have a feeling Book II will be out before AoD!

Re: Book II Questions Thread

You could add a skill that allows your character to craft wondrous items or magic weapons/armor. You would have to find or buy all the necessary components. Your skill level would have to high enough to craft certain items. If you attempt and fail, all the components are used up. If you succeed you ...

Re: Developers Notes: Eschalon World Map

Unfortunately, when designers or publishers try to put an exact date on a release and announce it to the public, one of two things will happen the product will be rushed to meet the deadline or the product will miss the release date. I like BW's approach in giving a ball park time. The best estimate...

Re: yay for getting closer to the release date

A high Cartography skill allows you to draw a more accurate map. Spot hidden should be used to find hidden or difficult to find paths. Once the path is found the high cartography skill would allow the character to draw the hidden path in great detail, so anyone using the map could find it. A high Ca...

Re: * BOOK II COMBAT OPTIONS *

If you are going into a Fully Defensive mode you should not be able to attack, because you are placing all your concentration and skill into not getting hit or minimizing the effects of a hit. Your attack rating should be halved when moving to attack from the Fully Defensive position because your sw...

Re: Discussion: possible alternatives to the saved game

Back to the topic at hand. The designer of the game is going to have to decide what type of save to use and how it will fit into the overall game world. The designer can also develop multiple ways to save the game and allow the user to decide what save to use at character creation. The user will hav...
