Hey, you should give Sam a chance! Maybe he can help, and you'd certainly have another customer if he does!

Fair enough. Too bad I have a powerbook... no real way to upgrade the video card on that. I guess I'll have to wait until I have a new computer to start seriously playing :(

Thanks anyway!

Disappointingly slow!

I've been waiting for this game to come out forever, and it's horribly slow. I'm running a G4 1.66 GHz with 2 GB of ram, 128 mb video card. That should be more than enough, but my computer consistently overheats and gameplay gets excruciatingly slow, especially when I get to a village with lots of ...

Hi there! I've got a question about items. Are there any special items with magic powers that can only be found once? I mean like swords that shoot magic missles, things that produce infinite sources of light so you don't have to go out and buy torches every other second, etc. I remember objects ...

Here's one..

Will there be plagues during the game? I think that would be incredible... like quarenteened (sp?) villages, rats, what have you. Thoughts?

One thing I will say about design documents - post scans/pictures of this stuff after the game is released.

I have a friend who was a key developer on another game (DROD) and he has released scans of design docs as part of bonus content. It made for a lot of fun seeing the crude hand-drawn stuff ...

It's a lot like waiting for Christmas, isn't it? To the developers of Eschalon: I applaud you for taking your time in making this game. Most developers just try to get out a game as quick as possible, without making sure it's a quality game. They're after money, and you guys are after a solid game ...

Here's my question.

Are the creatures in Eschalon in fixed numbers so that you can hunt certain ones to extinction, or are they generated as needed? Can they reproduce?

Also, with regards to gameplay itself, I know that Eschalon is tile-based. I would like to know, however, if the player's view of the world moves ...

What's going on over at Basilisk?

Hi everyone! I think it's time for a little update. What's going on at Basilisk games? Any breakthroughs? Setbacks? Can't wait to play your game.

Just wanted to say that I'm excited for the game to come out. It's going to be fun to play.

Also, I was wondering, will your character from the first game transfer to the next two games? That'd be sweet. It'd be okay if you had to make a new character for each, but to just be able to carry over ...

Preorder? Release date? Winning the game?

For those of you who might have pre-ordered an app called Tubular, you might not be so welcoming to the idea of a pre-order (I know I'll never buy from that developer again...), but I was wondering if Basilisk was going to offer a preorder of Book I, or maybe even all three games so that you get ...
