When playing the BD demo, what small touches did you notice and like. I liked how you now hold 2 handed sword with 1 hand when you run, where as in DD it went on your back. Also bows now go on your back with looks beeter IMO.

when you press C for combat, it takes a minute for your sword (weapon) to get out of its sheeth (of your back, out of your belt, etc).

I liked the animation after your character gets poisoned and their hit points drop to zero, though I don't know if I'd call it a 'nice' touch. You can not die from poison by itself; it requires some other damage to kill you.

i guess that this isn't a small touch but rather a big improvement on gameplay. i'm talking about right-click menu. it was accidental when i found it & i find it very very useful & makes great gaming experience. it kills the need to put clunky interface on the sides of the screen when we should be enjoying the view of the game world. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

sidenote: it's a wonderful surprise to see u back here, kiya. i'm glad. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> hope u'll stick around.

Ah, so this is how it works... I was looking to find the barf animation but it didn't work. I tried to drink 8 bottles of vine/beer but didn't work either. Looks like I have to restart the game <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.

I'm always wondering whether the chunks are caught between the grate of his helmet or not.

Edit: oh yeah, on-topic: the skeleton in the hallway to Fergus' room...

anyways about little touches I laughed my [nocando] off @ the talking skull especially the "what you think we skulls just float around?" remark, that was such a funny pun towards planescape torment <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
