The Drunken Lizard Pub

alandale and palog put together a pretty comprehensive list of the best for mac that i have found...

do yourself a favor and injoy the spiderweb's lineup of avernum! I prefer that series over the geneforge...
i know that the graphics are not top of the line, but it more than makes up for it in ...

looks promising!
do you know if it is going to be available for the mac?

I'm fine with it the current size, but if you wanna go big, injoy...
My only request is to keep it windowed instead of taking up the whole screen... I like to be able to jump back and forth from stuff w/o having to shut down the game...

blessingzzz

It's funny, but I played all of the old rpg's when they came out, Wizardry, Bard's Tale, Gold boxes, etc. but never bothered making maps... just too darn lazy... I probably missed out on a few things, but I got through all of the games...

I must say, for lazy boyz like me, the automapping is a BIG ...

I had some trouble getting through "the sword" also... my brother recommended the series to me, but gave me the warning that the first one was tough to swallow, but it gets better... Don't know, cause I never went back...

Along those lines...
Anyone have any comments on the "Wheel of Time" series ...

my 2.5 cents worth...

George RR Martin is still my favorite "fantasy" writer, definitely must reads for, well... almost anyone...
enjoy RA Salvatore's stuff as well, excellent action writer...

Just stumbled upon David Gemmel's writing... he passed away recently, but left behind a goldmine in great ...

I rather enjoy Spiderweb's stuff in general... Eschalon is a better game in many ways, but the Avernum stuff is fun to play and the games are pretty large. They might not be everyone's cup o' tea, but I'd recommend them to anyone and you can always check out how you like the game with a demo download.

Is there anybody who has made a list of what key goes where?
I have a "Heavy Key" which I have no idea where I picked up or where it goes. And also the "Gate Key" from darkford... where the heck does that one go?
Oh, and also a "Fancy Key"...

keys, keys, keys...


Thanks in advance...

edit: got ...

Also, although technically not an rpg, Battle for Wesnoth is a no frills highly addictive fantasy style game... Lots o hours gone to that one...

same problem with me...
i have the sound turned off on everything and still i get sound when fighting and atmosphere at times... the footstep is the only one that stays off...
mac version...

couldja send me a patch also if you get this resolved?

17!!! ouch... i thought that i didn't notice a difference when i had on scout sandals + the amulet that gives you 2 to cartography... so i dumped them for better stuff...

okay, now i know... thank you...

I agree with some of the suggestions, someone recommended a "running" key and lock, that would really improve the movement in the game.

A bit of randomness and multi-level dungeons would, of course, be an improvement... as well as more baddies... everyone wants more baddies...

I think cartography ...

The dungeon with the gates, "the outpost in burning sand"?,
is that the place where you need the key? The room with the two gates seem like they would be activated with levers, but I've gone over lots of the map looking for more of them, can't find 'em... I might have missed somewhere, but I also ...

Thank you for the info, acoustibop...

the widget has no use?!!! I've been carrying that thing in my pack, for what?!
looked interesting enough...

hmm, shadowmirk... doesn't ring a bell... maybe haven't gotten there yet...
where is that next to?

edit: duh!!! maybe reading the map would be helpful ...

I'm a long time gamer having started my addiction with Wizardry I on the Apple II+ back in the day...
I must say that I am very impressed with Eschalon and have thoroughly injoyed exploring the world...

I haven't finished the game yet, but I feel like I'm close...

Have a gadget thing I don't know ...
