Sorry to hear of your bad fortune with this game Jocco, i hadnt had THAT much trouble with the game as you apparantly have had..
This game has managed to make the whole gameplay uncertain for me, everything is soo vague.. And later you find out, much later, you did do actually do the right thing (or not), though i did not feel any convincement.
The Battlefields was a nice idea, though i did have alot of question during gameplay that the manual could just not answer.. Ofcourse i found out through trial and error.
Nothing is more worse to me than having distrust in makers of the game during gameplay, doing something and thinking: "Did they actually think of this?" ...
And then you find out that they just made it as linear as possible..
Example=> The white rum quest that the user decides not to do, though SAMUEL the arch demon does concratulate you on it!!! VERY deflating indeed.
I simply cant stress how much of a bad job that is, it really is worrying how little effort has gone into things in this game...
