Because the developers can't tell a good videogame from their arses.

Icelus, I asked you before in PM not to give spoilers away. Do it again and pay the Ultimate Price.

« on: December 18, 2004, 07:01:18 PM »I'll not release spoilers, but many more loose ends will be tied up with the component, yes, including the Lilarcor mystery. We're trying to decide if we should change the description of Imoen's belt or not, just so that it doesn't seem to out of place.
What is there to say about Imoen's belt? It was used to stop her from dieing in the beginning of the game.

« on: December 18, 2004, 03:04:04 PM »I dunno, jester. I mean, the developers obviously wanted the whole Twisted Rune subplot to be responsible for all of the various criminal activities going on around Amn, but it's so much work for us to include that. I think that Mad Sling has reminded us of something that we could easily restore with a minimal amount of muss and fuss.

« on: December 18, 2004, 02:55:32 PM »Let's face it: Most coders produce a lot of junk on the side and when the product gets shipped noone has the time to remove unnecessary bits that do not hurt the product itself or its saleability. UB did a pretty good job at finishing what the developers either did not have time, ideas or intenion to finish, but this is just a joke.
