Well I finally finished the demo. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" />

At first I was a wee bit disapointed in the start. Seems that I did not read the readme file that was installed in it's directory. When I did that it was a bit easier. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kissyou.gif" alt="" />

One thing I found at the start and all the way through was that the hero and death knight seemed to move slow. My system is a P 3, 450mhz, 384 ram. What is the suggested system requirement? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I ran into a problem with Fergus, but follwed Raze's advise and set my stats at level 2 to what he suggested. What a difference it made. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

After that the only things I need to ask about are how do you open the chest in the hall near the locked gate that is opened from the other side?

Next how do you open the door at the south (bottom) east (right)corner of the dungeon.

Overall <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> great. Will be looking for it at a store near me soon. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />


God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill, because they pissed me off.

at the end of the demo, in the first spiders cell, in the heystack, the key <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" />


BTW, try playing on a lower screen setting. and maybe your guys are walking? stamina ran out? in the begining of the game you start out with a VERY low consitution and stamina.

Carrie,
There are 4 levels at the north of the room and one at the south west.
Use this one after you open the door with the four others.
Hope it helps.

From the fan kit;
"System Requirements: Pentium III-500, Geforce 2 class 3D accelerator,128 MB of RAM"

I don't think the door to the south east (blocked by the guard) can be opened in the demo. When you click on the door, the DK says it can only be opened from the other side, but there may be another way. The only way anywhere else on the level is the pit in the arena at the end of the demo.

Well, finished it...though i could not give the guy water. I had water in my inventory...but no speech option to give him any.

Anyway, i think i will buy it when it comes out. I must say, a very challanging demo - man - some of those things were near impossible to kill!
I suppose once you get used to the voice, it is alright.
I do hope combat is a little easier though in the real game.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> Truly Larian...
I am looking forward to it.

There is a bottle of water in the kitchen the prisoner will take. Actually, he should take cups of water as well, but then ask for more.

Maybe even a thirsty prisoner wants his very special Imp Perrier, home made, correct kitchen temperature <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

like if he's bleeding to death from a cut on his arm, and he needs a BandAID, but he only accepts one kind. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Well, I've finished the demo myself now.

On the basis of this, I'll DEFINITELY be buying the game. I had a problem with targeting at first, but I solved that by pausing before clicking to attack.

I'm not worried about the voice acting, it doesn't seem bad to me.

It's going to be a great game!

I am really disappointed, the demo is too short <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />
I would have liked to play much longer.
But the demo is very great.
I loved everything in it.
Even the Deathknight's voice !
I don't think it is too dark because there are very beautiful colours, specially the reds which give a lot of luminosity.
I loved the characters, how they look, how they move. Marian great job !
And i did not find any bug !
Congratulations to everybody who worked on the game.

Barta
