Excellent game, a surprise hit for me. I thought it would be a shitty budget title. I don't know how long it'll be, but already at this point it's more than worth the money. I haven't seen any bugs yet, so all is fine for me.

The only good thing there is +50% for gold and +10 dexterity.

Resistance means nothing. Hover over the icon and you will see actual percentage of resistance. These GIANT values in items is meh. Valuable ones is these that has percentage resistance.

well, it raises my % by like 10%, so its not that bad.

oh i also got my first crash. When using the forge in the secret lair (the engineer), when adding a 5th item, the game crashes for me.

edit :

its repeatable. When i add items to generator/forge with right click, the 5th makes the game crash.

It doesn't crash tho, if i put the items in the slots myself, instead of rightclicking them.

I had two crashes so far with the legit version. Once while talking to the ghost in the forest while Katarina was shopping for me and once while trying to enter the werewolf den.

With the pirate version i had zero crashes.

Coincidence? Probably.

It is not TAGES man, they don't have some stupid scripts that lock doors or prevent you from leveling because you play torrent-edition. Coincidence indeed.

Thanks you for the manifest files Kein!

3DM Update 2 validates fine so its safe and full. Use the same crack you used before (if reloaded don't copy the .exe's again)


When I install the 3DM update over the REL cracked version, does it change the location of the savegames? Confused (so I have to move them to continue with the 3DM updated version?)

thx

I've had NO crashes so far, played for over 12 hours and not had a single crash. Poison bug (that could just as easily been from tasting that ooze) and the Thunder Strike addon not giving 100% Melee like it should -- though I'm not sure even that is accurate, since my Lightning Strike DPS is now 500odd and my Normal Strike DPS is around 480.

You meet a gambler late in the game, much like Wirt in Diablo, who sells unidentified items. So far they've all been shit Sad

By the way.

I don't know if it is a bug or feature, but whatever bonuses your second weapon has, it always stacks and active even if you don't use it. Damage bonus, percentage bonuses etc - it all adds to your final DPS.

If you´re used to ARPG, choose hard, otherwise normal is fine.

Somewhat, it is a hack & slash action-RPG after all, it's also fairly similar to Legend: Hand of God come to think of it. Smile

I really like how you can customize the companions setup for administering potions and all the other little options in that tab.

This game is a beautiful blend of Diablo with Torchlights ARPG improvements added in with it.

But I already finished it and afaik the guy gave me an amulet (or so he said in the dialogue). I had old rune in the swamp area (or, rather, shore area), then I got my pack full, teleported, sold all crap, came back and then it was gone. Huh?

Also, one of us bad at math, either me or the game:

It's a very general value that takes into account all bonuses, even the percentage ones. Fro example, my equipped boots has higher protection due to the luck which affect DODGE thus, according to some metacritic-tier calculation formula - "it is better for protection in general". Which is, of course, is wrong, but game does not care, it operates by these values and when you equip it your protection indeed will be higher despite the fact dodge has nothing to do with it.

But the worst part is that this affect weapon and DPS and sometimes weapon with clearly better stats may have lower DPS. Whose idea it was I wonder.
