Hey Dr.Disaster, thanks for the feedback.
Yet here are some nitpicks:
- all tombstones show their backside so any inscription that might be there can't be read Good Catch! Actually this was intended as I wanted them unmarked. If you face them correctly then you have an empty chat bubble.
- some secrets are required(!) to progress further which makes no sense I can only think of one area in particular that would require you to use your noodle and that was for one of the gems in the first level of the castle. I specifically tried to avoid this issue as I found it extremely annoying in the main campaign. Sorry you felt otherwise, I thought for the most part puzzles were NOT required.
- food is a bit scarce; some fish/warg respawns might help So I didnt anticipate players seeking out all the secrets. Ive recieved feedback for lack of food due to players spending more time than what was intended. I may end up adding food to some of the scarcer secrets to compensate you for the time spent. Thanks
- the empty alcoves in the relic vault imply that all 6 parts of the valor set are around but it seems the shield is missing So this is the second time someone brought this up and Im going to address it shortly. Basically there was a set of armor in there but then was moved to Joseph's tomb. I can see it adds confusion and it will be cleared up, thanks for the feedback.
About the first fight with Prince Alric: it might take the party a really long time but this fight can be won. I guess i spend over an hour whittling him down. If your intention is to have the player run from him i can think of a much better way then giving him several ten thousand health: let him heal back up to full once the player managed to deal more than 100 damage. In addition some HUD text might be of help. This way the player can tell very quick that he is not supposed to fight this fight.
I agree a self heal would probably be a better solution. I thought it was clear as it was stated in a nearby note they are powerful and should be avoided as well as a plaque indicating the solution to your predicament. Ill see about adjusting, thanks.
At any rate congratulations on finishing and seeking out all the secrets!
