Ok well I used scorpion traps to kill the demon of lies.

DOH turns out he just is dead and the game never ends if you do that.


So I went back to an earlier save, and beefed up my sword skills and added some damage and got some super restore potions.

So I killed him again. Only all that happened after that was a long loading time and then it showed me the credits. the same credits you can see from the opening screen.


Did I win? Was I supposed to see something else? What happened? Did the demon kill everyone or did I woop his ass? And who is the kid at the altar?

Am I supposed to see a movie or something?

Question 2, on the disc 3 play disc there are 2 bink movies. Only bink player wont play them. The first one i have to assume is the opening movie, but the 2nd one might be the one im supposed to see at the end. is there any way I can open that file to see what it is?

No I didnt.

It accessed my hard drive for a very long time... and then it showed the credits.

Well rather than go through that again, I was wondering if there is anyway I can just see the movie, if anyone has opened the movie from the cd somehow?

Ok I figured out what my problem was.

I was using no cd and it eliminates calls to the cd drive. In older faq i read about it.
So I put the cd in and looked at the movies, aparentlyi had missed 2 movies. I couldnt say where they are located in the game but one seems to be right after you ring the gong, and the other one is after you kill the demon of lies.

Ok I saw the movie I still dont quite get it. You dont kill the baby and a statue falls from the sky.
So I guess well all see in DD2 coming soon to a theatre near you.

Great game I had a lot of fun. I beat it a little at a time over three months. I couldnt say how many hours, close to the advertised 100 hours I would say.
The only quests I never did were kill the tree... sword from the stone, the treasure maps... perhaps a couple more.

Hmm.. well this icon Ive used on message boards for like 4 years. Its a frazetta painting from the 50s first seen on Conan the Conquerer. I didnt know Molly hatchet used it, although I do definitely remember they used another famous Frazetta Painting called Death Dealer. Im a big Frazetta fan but I couldnt tell you much about Molly hatchet.

*sigh*
I would have never thought that the language of pure image is so hard to understand. We have to think about that in the future...

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!

Ascension "Blessing" cutscene
After you got sacrificed by the council of seven your spirit awakes in a divine realms on an altar. Around you the ideas of the seven gods are manifesting. You can roughly separate impish, human, elven or orcish gods...
Everyone of them grabs into their chest and puts a small part of the heart into your weightless shape. After you received all blessing the <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> in you is fully developed and so her wings grow and she flies up to the mortal plane where she descends as the reborn hero into the wastelands.

Extro scene
You see the demon of lies dying. In fact you see the mutiliated body of janus ripped into pieces and the leftover, the sword of lies, remains. It comes closer and tries to seduce the hero. The hero is tempted to take it but refuses and sends it back to hell away from the mortal plane.
Then the hero hears the cries of the baby. Knowing that it is the lord of chaos inside the child he/she draws the dagger to kill it. In the hero's moral struggle to kill a neborn innocent child the scene fades out.
Much later you see the hero walk out victorious into the swamp area. He carries something. Loot? The child? You don't know for sure...
Somewhere on a distant hill Arhu and Zandalor watch you coming when suddenly the statue you lifted up in the sky while entering the katacombs of aleroth comes down finally...(side joke, nothing more)

Oh well.... absolutely. In my case I was not actually looking at the movies at the time i was supposed to lol so I may have missed their intended meaning even more so.

But the movies while very nice didnt relate that story to me very clearly. As a matter of fact I went through the whole last castle thinking that they were sacrificing a baby to summon an evil demon.
I entered a castle and there is a demon over a coffin and there is already a baby there, and he says sorcerous words. When you are in the demons castle you can scroll over to the final room.... and you see a baby and a coffin and nothing else. The Demon of lies should have said ' I have summoned the evil into the child before you got here, you are too late.'
At the end what may have helped would have been a short conversation between zandalor and the Cat saying... 'So he defeated the Demon of lies, but did he off the demon baby?' 'meow I dont know Zandalor lets go ask him and find out.....;
