New Player Thoughts (Spoilers I suppose)

[Kaldire]

Except there's no lightning spells.

lol i meant dnd style  lol

ever play pnp dnd, and wear armor, if you do cast  anything esp lightning you fumble falter and zap yourself or fizzle out lol

didnt mean in QFI but yea, always thought that qfi needed taking armor off or something when sneaking or hear  CLANG CLING CLANG lol

as for activision, well at least they stopped withholding the ips even if the games that will come will not be great
shudder for the new KQ platform but  we shall see
at LEAST they got off the   put this in the darkest dungeon you can find phase
i felt like sierra and LA games were like the old atari ET cartridges 

oh which reminds me .. a semi new documentary is about atari, rise n fall and mainly deals with ET games dumped and filled over with concrete, shows them digging them out with super yellow/orange beasts
lolol

i blame steven for that (SS not BT)
he okayed ET the game on atari
doh! bart

i seriously await the book too goatmeal, to see what other tidbits might be in there

From the QFI Companion... this is what Jason Lamb notes about the sewer screen...

“Steve approached me with an interesting idea about the world of QFI and its ancient lore--basically the idea was that the world of QFI was actually built upon the remnants of a previous society which had been destroyed long ago. Thousands of years after some great cataclysm destroyed this advanced civilization, nature had regrown to cover up that long-forgotten past. The idea of this cataclysm and its consequences is an important part of the plot of Quest for Infamy 2, but would be something that we would only subtly hint at in this first game, mainly through certain details and design decisions with some of the background art. There's also some dialog with the members of the Thieve's Guild that references this subplot.” Jason

Look guys sorry about posting while drunk but I have some ideas you might like. (no ranting lol)

Your in a uniqe postion to do alot with qfi lore and interaction/feature wise, alot of neat stuff never even thought of in qfg.

You can for exsample really make infamy count and effect the story and character reactions some positvly some negativly.

You can also do alot of great stuff never allowed in qfi.

I relalize a may have hurt my credabilty a bit here but I have a few good simple to put in update ideas.

......................................................LORE:
Lost relics of those who came before can be collected and put to use, maybe to unlock a secret puzzle and revale more hidden lore. Trigering the arcaolgist achievement.

.........................................RELATIONSHIP:
Do a update of the game, where there is a gifting feature and hidden relationship bar with ina, kit and volarus. You know how the game hints at play your cards right making you think this already is in there?

Well you could follow up on that.

Developing it a little in first games and continuing through all 5, when you make them, never allowed much in q4g 5, always later when the game was over which was a cop out. What is it?...a few dialog options, gifting 3 correct items and a cut sence followed by a little dialog at end of game? You could ad this in a couple weeks.

...........................INFAMY:
Another idea, more options for infamy and odd and cool things you can do, that are not strctly speaking neccasary Maybe 4 new hidden things for each class?

............................GAMEPLAY COMBAT:
An achivment for legetmently maxing your stats and getting the best stuff in act one before it was intended and breezing through the game after exsesivly grinding, like a feat of strength.

I know you guys hate stuff like that but people love it. Feeling like a total bad ass and managing through effort to do what they are not supposed to be able to do, well...seemingly. Though it should not be easy, that defeats the point.

.....................................ADVANCEMENT:
Make it so if you get all achivments and do all 3 classes it unlocks a speical play through, not a pure cheat mode, but kind of like agd blue frog and battle mode but diffrent.

Rather special pristige options through game play, for a optional semi-non cannon play thoughrough just for fun. Make achivments mean something and keep people playing longer while they wait for next game.

Well I did not expect this level of response.

As a stand-alone game - it was fabulous - I do not feel we need to pressure the designers for a direct sequel *poke* Roe *poke*

Regarding stat cap:

As Brigand, several stats went to 110+ with bracers of Mastery
As Rogue, same happened (caveat earlier mentioned bug w/sneaking)
As Sorcerer: I know I got Weapon/hit% to at least 105 (Bracers of mastery?)

All other stats seem to be appropriately capped at 100 - unless there is something I did not find... like the 3 hidden rooms... and some developer bar

**bbbbut... I want to survive the hickory stick... I luuuvs her??? Maybe?**

[Kaldire]

yes the 3 secret rooms boosted my stats above 100 well above, no masters stuff

and 1 room is pretty fun,
and one room, has mmmmmmm 's  nom nom 

(odd you didnt find even one of the rooms, at least 1 is able to be found by all classes just you cant do anything unless you are a specific class)

other than  Nom nom mmmm 
more please?
lol


as for the act 1 achievement, thats odd idk
i usually grinded on all classes to get all skills to 100 before even picking a class,
sadly once you do pick a class all the stats kinda reshuffle  sorta reset but not really.

so i do it in prologue usually. not act 1 !

i did think that maybe getting a home with matching furniture n such for the class you become with a few options sounded kinda cool but that sounds a bit like the keep in overlord  the game series  lolol

The main chest cannot be looted, theif 100 yet dont have skill have special bracer and nothing, the one at foot of volaraces bed in rouge room, cant be done tried crow bar oil, sword putting smok bomb in room, to knock out sleeping guards and using hammer, nothing works.

edit of course I tried kit first as it opened other chests in room on skill alone.

[Kaldire]

muyhahhahaha

[roeadventue32]

dont tell me how just if it can be done.

[Raner]

Kaldire - I like ya - yer an arse.

HOWEVER I never said I maxed stats in Act 1 - the golden period is the Prologue (Evening before class choosing) and Night (Past class choosing ... how do I end a parenthesis without a... parenthesis?!?!?!)

well I guess no one will speak of that with me.

[Kaldire]

raner hehe ty
im the bombastic spastic resident here, until the new guy here posts drunk hehe
makes me feel less like im the only one(though i dont drink (only coffee))

problems with maxing before picking a class is , that the code still resets some stats or lowers them vastly
try it out esp sorc gets shafted on most skills even combat

had like 100 on all, went down to wanna say 70 or 60 per stat.. just picking sorc,
same with sneak etc all went down

was worse in 1.0 but still exists in 1.1

dude calm down! ya just posted some of us have.. other stuff to do than just sit in forums, though its odd me saying that if you read all my posts from the old days of this forum hahah



the big chest? you mean where you get the main secret item for rogue?
if its the one im thinking of.. yes it can be opened.
but im not sure if its the one im thinkin o

responded to message, yeah got a bit carried away with my game lol.

[roeadventue32]

haha that chest at the foot of volaris bed is a tough nut to crack. I thought maybe the diamond tiped crowbar but that failed too.

[Kaldire]

hmm did you pee on it? lol
jk jk

urmm ill have to check that out again

[Raner]

I'm anxiously awaiting the HintArt™ Book to see if Blackthorne delves into the backstory / world history of Tarhsein.  (hint, HINT).

Seconded
