Right Mouse Button?
Hi all, After playing EB1 on Windows I now started playing EB2 on my iMac (2009). It looks like a great game (I'm just in the start area) and I really appreciate that it directly runs on a Mac. One thing that annoyed me a bit after some playing is the way, the right mouse button is (not) supported i...

Re: Interface suggestion
Depends on the shield actually.There are shields that are strapped to the arm and thus leave the hand free to hold any object. You are right. The game could respect that as well and it would make it harder to choose your shield... BTW. I didn't find any(?) magic shield in the game or at least can't...

Re: Interface suggestion
I *HATE* dragging the shield back and forth to my inventory whenever I need to swap for my bow! I completely agree! I already complained about that in other threads. Regarding the torch: If you carry a sword and shield ready (in your hands), you can't hold a torch, but If you carry a bow (without a...

I think that the paperdoll idea goes to far and isn't realistic in any place. In EB1 I complain about the handling of the shield because I used to switch between sword/shield and bow during combat. This is somehow realistically done in a combat situation, but it usually takes at least a turn and inc...

Oh man I wish you could make the NPCs move! I stored some stuff in a cabinet in the inn. I came back a long (many levels/hours) time later, and the innkeeper was standing right next to the cabinet. I thought nothing of it, went to grab my items and the jerk thought I was stealing from him and attac...

Price differentiation for Book II
You should be carefully when adding different prices in EB2. I currently like in EB1 that I don't have to care about prices. I simply sell in the first store I drop in. I don't like to manage price lists in my back head. Different prices should have a reason and easy to remember. Example: the blacks...

Re: Specialist or Jack of All Trades? (slightly spoily)
Hi, I can't answer that poll because it is a kind of to rough. I usually play a sword and shield paladin type of fighter that knows much about divination magic to be able to sufficiently heal and buff himself. He does good only but can pick locks to a certain complexity. He wears the best armor he c...

PoR 2?
Anybody here played PoR 2 (except me)?
I did it years ago when PoR 2 came out. I never finished a game with that number of bugs so far. Looking back I must have been in a sligthly masochistic phase...
Nevertheless, AFAIR the turn based battles were kind of cool...
Regards,
B.

Re: Wish List for Book II {Compiled}
I'd rather it automatically holster the shield on the characters back when u use the torch or switch to a bow or some other 2-handed weapon I'd like to emphasize that: I'm playing a sword and shield warrior that uses a bow sometimes and it is annoying to unwield the shield before able to press ENTE...

[Spoiler request] Shadowmirk
I found a potion of ogre strength and a healing elixier II (?) in the same level and used them. I'm not sure what the level of the healing potion was. I also closed the chests after placing the potions. AFAIR there will be no message, sound or anything that tells you that the chests are stuffed prop...

Starter Quests
Hi all, I bought the game (EB1) some days ago and started adventuring with my fighter. Nice, nice, nice, really nice. Many already had good ideas for EB2, some I don't like, but that is as always. When browsing through the ideas there is one thing that I have missed during my first hours of playing:...
