    This summed up my initial reaction entirely! Grats to Corvinius and Rhian especially :beer:Glad you liked Hunger, Rhian. You did an excellent job with Chaining A Hawk!I went on a must-read-everything spree after I realised the results were out and I have to admit: the standard of everything now...

    [GENERAL] Dicepoker, Drinking, Fistfighting

    Hmm... well, everyone who says that if you lose then you can win more is perfectly correct. However, you're basically winning back the money you lost the first time(s).

    [GENERAL] Dicepoker, Drinking, Fistfighting

    I'm only in the dice playing for the quest and for the money. So i cheat outrageously: I save beforehand, bet to the maximum, and reload if I end up losing. ;DMost of the time I don't need to reload... so I think it's just you, Mad. :dead:

    First impressions

    1) As others have said, there's as much daylight in the game as not. The reason many screens are taken at night is that monsters only come out at night in certain parts of the game... and killing monsters makes for good screenshots! ;DSeriously though, my personal favourite is being outside -...

    A minor point of clarification for anyone interested: Peazo's save game comment is with regards to the incompatibility of saves from the demo with that of the actual game.Congratulations on the awards, you guys seem to be collecting quite a few of them!And imho you deserve 'em all, too. ;)

    Talents - info, recommended [SPOILERS POSSIBLE]

    From books. Herbalism guides or ones with plants in the title etc will teach you about the herbs you can gather. Books can be bought from various NPCs or found all over the place. ;)

    [ACT II] Tip for Coccacidium and Wyverns (spoilers)

    It's a monster which is created at the scene of a particularly horrible crime if I remember correctly. It is sensitive to silver, so I used silver. Haven't tried with steel, although the echinopsae in act ! did die (eventually) to it.

    It's white myrtle petals or something isn't it?Firstly, you need to read a book that gives you the ability to harvest them (Talk to the guy outside the inn I think). Secondly, there's an ability in the Intelligence line on the hero panel called Herbalism or something that you will need.Once you...
