One thing I have notice though is the strike/hit amount is variable eg Marine hit 150 one hit next she only hit 25, similar thing with Benoit, is this a feature we have to expect.


Hmmm on the same monster, no. Variance is not as big.


Except when the monster defends. That sort of variance should be expected though

Wonderful game! Love the wide open feel when you're out in the world. Also having fun with the little secret (?) hints that you cross over. Neat touch! +::shhhh
Got to get my sound fixed so I can hear the music! +::whistle
Got to finish LFII so I can really get going on BOTM! +::biggrin

I think LF2 and BOTM are my two best games ever (in a totally different way lol)
now let's see how Asguaard turns out - this is my new challenge +::biggrin

Just got to say I'm really enjoying it! As was already mentioned, great artwork and superb new music indeed! +::Thumbup
I've reached the end point for this chapter but I'm still going to try to finish some more open quests and spotting more secret rooms around before I call it a quit and as I'm sure that even then I will be far from finding everything I will have the pleasure of having another go at starting from the begining!
Thanks Indy for making it so enjoyable! +::YAY

I think this is your best ever game. I think the lack of gold and having to make an effort to find restorative items is the way to go. It was all too easy before. You just found a place with easy to kill monsters who dropped lots of gold and you could get as many items as you wanted. Here you have to be a bit more careful and think a bit more which has to be good. One small downside. I miss the journal and think it should be put back. I know talk tells you what to do next, but I cant remember the details of quests when there are several open.

Hmmmm let me think of it and maybe put it back (it's not a promise though) +::Thumbup
I originally felt BOTM wasn't as complicated as LF and did not really need it.... +::O_o

I don't know if this is possible but when you fix the journal can you maybe add a counter at the bottom for number of secret rooms found. Thanks much.

Number of secret rooms is shown during the ending credits so it's not hard to check.

I will also number the secret rooms, ie
???? #12 instead of just ????

I just downloaded & purchased this game today. My 1st thoughts are: I love the music in battle scenes etc. but the overall "zen" type music that seems to be the main score almost put me to sleep. LOL
I'm on a quest not going to a tea party +::whistle . With that said: I adore the auto battle feature , the journal & talk features. This game has done so many things RIGHT that I can't wait to get back to the game ( tho I shall crank ac/dc) +::YAY . I would really like to see this game exposed to more people that my not know about this genre.....with the options for difficulty level & the ability to use the mouse; I think it could appeal to a wide audience.
Over all WTG Aldorlea +::clap +::clap +::heart

Thank for your feedback!

There are faster and more uptempo tunes later on (Rocky Path anyone? lol)
Although nah, it's never AC/DC (You want blooood, I have it lol)

Also you have a Friday the 13rd-like tune during a croco hunt lol maybe you'll like this one

Thanks again +::Thumbup

LOL i made it to rocky pass...while not quite ac/dc...much better & " they are getting blood" +::fear +::biggrin .
Now that I'm further into this game my huge gripe is lack of gold. If I'm going to be hit w/ venom etc. I like to be able to cure myself. I like to explore every nook & cranny in a game. So I tend to run into trouble but find some really cool things...like secret rooms 8) . This became such an issue w/ me that I restarted a game and selected the very easy mode, LOL>
I think maybe it's my playing style but I'd really like to see the critters you kill drop gold.Ah well...I'll keep playing...I have a love/hate relationship w/ this game at this point. +::music +::heart
