What do you think?
I think your use of text formatting is annoying .

I think it's somewhat dumb to tell a dev he should change core mechanics of his game.

I think you may want to play a different game. The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion comes to mind.

I also think it's funny that you rolled a die to ...

It's the power of the net. No debate is over as long as someone is capable and willing to resurrect a thread.

I guess it wasn't a problem with the rolls after all. More an issue of the basic skill mechanics.
I hope the seeds will help.

An update?

Hey, is it too late to add wishes to the list?
My wishes aren't really new - I've stated them long ago, but they are not on this list.

1) An improved spell book. I dislike having to "bind" every spell prior to casting it. I'd rather be able to select a spell in the book and cast it immediately ...

I pretty much finished the Ossuary as well, but I found no hint of anything that would seal the entrance.

An Easter Egg, I'm afraid.

Good old light exploit won't go down without a fight.

Unfortunately, it works the other way 'round, too.

I use a Gravedigger's amulet instead of a torch, which doesn't take a round to unequip, although that's not the root of the problem. When I take it off without moving afterwards, my enemies ...

That would be interesting if there are several schools with different spells. Even a pure caster could hardly learn them all so you'd have to choose.

I don't really want skill-dependant spell power other than what we already have, i.e. higher skill needed to cast spells at higher levels.
I'd rather see the current system refined, and the proposed changes would require an overhaul of the system.
I would be satisfied if high-level damage spells ...

I've mentioned in another thread that if Oblivion's team of AI programmers couldn't get it right, I don't think I even want to try.
Wow, Oblivion is truly one of the most influencial RPGs of all time. A pity it's a shitty hack by incompetent morons. There is no more (and rather less) AI in ...

3) Go with a party, but take the engine in a radical new direction: an engine that we have been developing that would be similar to Wizardry 8, with hints of Dungeon Master / Eye of the Beholder.
You mean this was your original plan? Whatever gave you the idea that creating a new engine for Book ...

I found out what happened. The Drone was hidden behind a tree which I couldn't see in the darkness. It was visible when I lit it up with the cursor, because that penetrates the tree, unlike the PS effect.

Whether that's a bug or not is up to you, although I'll say it's very inconvenient.

I've got some issues with the spell effectiveness and mana cost.

For instance, how is Enkindled Weapon balanced versus Ogre Strength? As far as I can tell, the latter also gives me +1 damage per level for the same mana, but with extra perks like the much longer duration.

I am a bit wary of using ...

Not entirely true. You may want to use two weapons, and what do you do then? Whether or not you can cast even with a light weapon depends on your strength.

The real problem is that you can always open your inventory and change your equipment. If you change your equipment, the round should end once ...

I had an odd bug with 1.03 today - It was getting dark when I was surprised by some Hive Drones and cast Predator Sight.
I defeated the drone I saw but I was attacked again. It turned out there was a second drone next to me, which was unaffected by Predator Sight.

I don't know if the drone ever ...
