ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

The main issues I had with Steam was having it backdate my saves, erasing hours of gameplay a few times. Sometimes I don't have connection, dammit; leave me alone, Steam! And WTF is up with replacing newer files?!

Luckily, you can still download the standalone version; I think I may.

OK. Still not impressed.

Perhaps so, but I've seen no real nerfs to the Shalore... Ever. I may have missed something, ofc, but that's what I've seen. So far, the apparent rule has been "nerf everything so it's crappier than the Shalore".

Edit -> Oops! Didn't check the post dates, pardon the silly necro.

Once again, everything is nerfed to keep the Elves on top. Yay?

To be clear: When you get to the 3rd dungeon, DON'T MOVE at all; immediately pop your RoR and wait in place. If X sees you, the Wayist will die almost immediately.

Your issue seems highly likely to stem from using a freeware copy of the game, while attempting to turn it into the equivalent of a paid version.

Thanks.

*ALL* of my unlocks are gone, except those that merely involve paying for the game itself, after installing on a new PC, yet they still show on the main site, along with all of my achievements.

Using the latest Windows Steam version of 1.3.1, I came across a bug that lets you duplicate any non-stackable item, up to and including uniques such as the Orb of Scrying, Rod of Recall, and Transmogrification Chest! To reproduce: - Start an Alchemist character. - Use the skill "Interact with ...
