INSTEAD of simply accept that this idea, even tho it sounded cool, was bad one ... and rewind back to patch 1 Darkvision, where our Darkvisioning characters were simply source of their own "cold light" and whole space around them litteraly looked differently. That is equivalent of "we will rather try hard to create bzillions of permutation for meeting with Shadowheart, than give that stupid box to player right after he leaves first room."
What do you think? Am i on right track, or completely off?
You are I believe exactly on track. I've never watched a PFH before but to hear Sven constantly asking about throwing the gnome was as revealing as it was annoying.
