Sorry I was feeling a bit grumpy yesterday guys!
Excellent, will try this out, thanks!
What do you need this scroll for? Because I seem to never had it in the first place and could continue my game just fine without it.
The game says I need it to gain access to Evelyn's lair?
Hello Yosharian,
Have you checked to see if you sold it to an NPC? All items you sell to NPCs remain in their inventories forever. Also to generate "lost items" I don't think any of those commands are publicly available. There are no ways to generate lost items in older Divinity games with the exception of the Divinity 2 the Developer edition.
Also ignore Hiver's purely negative comments, he is our resident 'unemployed' troll. The Troll King fired him since he can't count his money from his TROLL TOLL. People were giving him 15 gold instead of 150 to cross his bridge...rather embarrassing isn't it?
I checked quite a few NPCs and I couldn't see it. The problem is tenfold here - I've used practically every vendor I can offloading paintings etc, I also never sold any scrolls at all so aside from misclicking I don't see how it's possible that I sold the scroll.
Lastly I specifically remember removing the Reveal Spell from my hotbar after trying fruitlessly to use it in various places around town, such as the Mortician's Workshop etc.
I learned later, or maybe around the same time (can't remember exactly) that when you do that, your character throws the item on the floor (WHY OH WHY!). So it's almost 100% certain that I've thrown it on the floor without realising and gone on my merry way.
There is no actual such intent in my reply, and you just inventing it and implying it doesnt make you anything less then an actual cunt.
He is not halfway through but barely in the beginning, playing a game that is made for replays yet he himself said, rather emphatically and dramatically, that he would rather deinstall then restart and even added some super smart "great work devs!" comments - because he dropped a spell himself because he wasnt paying attention.
Even if he was half way through it wouldnt really matter. Sure it sucks, but you suck it up and relaod earlier save or start the game over. Thats what RPGs are for anyway.
Were, and now are again.
He wants to stop playing instead? Then he should.
Or you and gyson can go and croon over him because thats what really should be done for cases such as that.
Wow. Ok. A few things to address here:
1) 'At the beginning' - I'm about 20 hours in
2) 'Playing a game that's meant for replays' - no it's not
3) 'he dropped a spell himself' - the UI dropped the spell, I only
removed it from my hotbar4) 'wasn't paying attention' - I don't go around holding the ALT button everywhere I go, that's not 'not paying attention', that's a design flaw in the game
5) 'that's what RPGs are for' - some, yes. I just finished my 5th playthrough of Baldur's Gate 2, I've completed 3 playthroughs of Fallout: New Vegas, 2 of Fallout 3, I've completed FF7 5 times, the entire Half-Life series three times, Deus Ex at least 3 times, Skyrim three times, KotOR 1 at least 4 times, KotOR 2 twice, countless playthroughs of Diablo 2, completed FEAR twice, Homeworld twice, Jedi Knight twice, Neverwinter Nights 2 three times, Thief 1 at least twice, Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines twice, and finally I've completed Warzone 2100 three times (I fuckin love that game!).
I won't be playing this game again - there's no reason to. There are no paths to choose from, no decisions that severely affect the game (other than wow you now have +1 to loremaster instead of something else!), no characters that think differently of you (in a meaningful way) or many deep NPCs to choose from to make up your party. The game is clunky, awkward and slow, and has many fiddly aspects like crafting and stealing that are like crack cocaine to OCD players but who wants to go through Cyseal stealing everything that's not nailed down
twice? And I'm already playing on hard.
I really like a lot of things about this game, but claiming it's the second coming of CRPGs is a bit much. It isn't exactly Baldur's Gate 2 reborn. It's more like Icewind Dale II with a kooky flavour and a not-so-solid ruleset, wrapped in a clunky UI and an even clunkier battle system.
Furthermore, making elitist judgements about someone you haven't even met, based off a few off-hand comments made in a thread about a bug (yes it's a bug, and/or a design flaw), is pretty ignorant, and makes you come off as self-righteous and basically an asshole. My nerd-cred is solid, kid. You ain't got shit on me.
Question is: Is this even main-plot relevant? I donｴt see how this blocks progress.
that was more in response to what I posted (and then removed in an edit).
Even so, items which exist only to be used in quests generally have that tag I was talking about.
In fact, i wish there was a 'quest item' ivnentory tab. I hate it when quest important shit gets put into the 'crafting' tab.
Music to my ears, couldn't agree more.
