krellin deeps (may contain traces of spoilers)

[slayernz]

I've been wandering around the deeps for a while now and am in the maze. I noticed that it seems thatta there is only one camp so far ... long time between drinks so to speak.

Apart from the do you hear something crash bug by the rodents of unusual size, have you guys noticed anything else around This level?

[beuns]

When you get out of the camp, go west through the corridor with traps, the try to get south ASAP (take care it seems that Cory has had some fun with traps on small corridor ). When you can't go south anymore, go east, that should trigger both a fight a a cut-scene with shifty-eyes telling you that you're back on track. Hope that help

slayernz - we have fixed the crash in the rat den. We have also added a few more shorter routes through the level, tweaked dialog, reduced the size of the trap piles, and even added some more SP pots. Hopefully the Krellin Deeps will be even better next time.

Do you think there is more need for on-going in-game encouragement from the characters? Or are you suggesting a half-way point campsite?

[slayernz]

Yeah suggesting a second camp site maybe in the maze section or even the ratkin village just before the maze?

[beuns]

Second campsite seems good. I like all the cut-scenes. The characters seems so alive

[fallen]

Ok - campsite added! Great idea.

I do like the dialogue. Who's been writing it?

[fallen]

dayan - depends on where you are. I am primarily responsible for story and the majority of the dialog, but as in all things Trese Brothers, its an extremely collaborative effort.

That room with giant rats (first encounter with them) gave me a great sense of suspence..great game really..like someone said, this game is declaring war to my xbox..ahahahahah

[fallen]

If that's what it takes - down with the XBox, TB FTW!

[Slide87]

Ran into a chest, locked, couldn't unlock it. I assume that I need to level my open lock ability, but there was only the first campsite where we could train our abilities, thought the one on top of the stairs would do that, but no. Now I'm faced with the dilemma to go all the way back and hope I don't get lost.

I was just playing around in Oshkahold and got a lot of little story tidbits from NPCs, really cool writing and genuinely interesting to read. Very good job! I hope we get lots more of these little tidbits throughout the episodes.

mikelrysk, was the chest locked with a red padlock or a blue padlock? Red padlocks need a trigger (such as a scripted scene or particular bad guy) before they open. They might turn into blue padlocks, or they might just become unlocked chests.

I've traveled into some of the deeper darker sections of the game and the Lock Pick level 1 spell seems to work fine. I have only ever had the attempt fail once, but I just tried it again and it opened up fine.

slayernz - don't expect that to last
