Ah. OK, thanks, yes I found the crystals, the plants and finished that quest.
In the previous, discarded game, I couldn't get into the castle at all - because I killed the guard. This time round, I've found the teleporter that needs the gemn, I found the intelligent elemental, who gave me the gem ... but the gem won't go into the teleporter this time. Worse, the game crashed on me, and the last save crashes out as well. If I could get to Serricks tower, if ...
And, to make it all even worse still, on the Lost Monks ... no key to be found. I probably already have picked it up from before - don't usually miss picking things up. In which case, it simply isn't registering at the door. (I do have a few keys in the inventory)
It's not desperately important - but I do need one more quest done to get to the top or second to top on the list. And that doesn't look like its going to happen now.
I've also noticed from time to time that the xp points don't increase with kills, so I have to go back to a previous save to get them building up again.
I'm beginning to think it's serioously time to ditch this game: I'm on v1.44 - every time I download a version, within a day or so it seems another version is out, with all sorts of caveats. I see 1.45 is out now. Ugh!
I'm not very impressed with it, I'm afraid. A disappointment after DD, which I enjoyed without any problems. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />
