Re: What game are you playing until book 3?
ToME can be REALLY harsh RIGHT at the beginning, sometimes getting you killed before you've explored any more of the map than the area you can see when you start the game. But that's due to randomization and generally doesn't happen much (started probably 3 dozen games, had it happen twice I think)....

Re: Small(?) Book III Request...
Developers who respond in a positive light to suggestions from their fans is the exact reason why I love indie companies like Basilisk Games. Big studios just aren't able to be this "in touch" with their fans, and even when the developers can't make the changes you personally think would b...

Re: Automapping feature instead of requiring Cartography ski
I am a big fan of the idea of making it a difficulty modifying option (like the options at the beginning of book II to turn hunger on/off, item degradation on/off, etc) to start the game with 1 in cartography.

Re: buying stuff
I am not a fan of haggling, simply because it makes what should be a simple shopping trip into a bigger hassle than it really needs to be. However, I do love the idea of having a "special selection" for people with high mercantile. It could be as easy as certain thresholds of mercantile al...

Re: What game are you playing until book 3?
Someone mentioned it a while back in a different post, but the main game I am playing between now and when book 3 comes out is Tales of Maj'Eyal (ToME). It's a totally free (although there are some very small in-game benefits to donating), very fun roguelike. It reminds me a lot of the Eschalon seri...
