Most story-lines that pass around here feature a list of plot-holes and things we know we should explain. I believe plot holes are present in all games, books and movies and that it's quite easy to fire away at a plot and expose these holes just by keeping on asking why. We try to come up with answers for all of the ones we think of ourselves, but sometimes we miss out on some obvious things. Or, and that's often the case, we had an explanation for something, but then during production it gets cut away so we can still make our deadlines. For instance, in the original story-line of ED the elves and dwarves were very much present, that is, before the entire area where they were living was cut. But then of course you get the problem that there still might be references to it, and that causes a new problem, which isn't always addressed.

What I'm trying to say is - yes, we are aware of certain problems in the storyline, and yes, we think of how we can fix those.
