  Hey D. Sorry I haven't been keeping up with your streams. Been preoccupied. I try to watch replays when I can though. For future consideration do you think you could create a character for me? Would be appreciated. Preference would be a Psionic with Chaotic 1 personality. Basically a crazy Psionic. Lol Should be fun. Thanks in advance. 👍

  @@biogoo I didn't think Armormelt lowered evasion armor class, just anti-penetration armor class? I don't think it makes him any easier to hit with all the misses. And the "no penetration" on the ranged weapons is a lie. It always says that when it's close, even though it counted as a miss.

  @@dfortaeGameReviews Well, the anti penetration AC is the one to beat to do damage, and aside some exceptions it is higher than evasion AC. Plus, blunt weapons incur a -1 penalty to penetrate. I will not pretend that I know exactly how everything works with ranged attacks, but I think that the hit/miss is decided by the angle of precision of the shot. Attack rating and evasion play a role, but so does model size and distance, so in melee range it's pretty much always a hit against large enough enemies. Damage/no penetration comparison is then same as melee. It is possible that if the attack roll was so small that it wouldn't even beat the usually lower evasion, that the game then still considers it a technical miss in terms of stamina cost for the defender and animation played, if that's what you are reffering to. But if you cast a PL7 armormelt, which might even be boosted by powercast in effectiveness (or not, I don't know), you can bring the anti penetration AC value below the evasion AC, which means that it ultimately lowers the only relevant AC value that is to be beaten, because the shot will always land if close enough. Superman is more important, and even more so if you are below 100 STR/DEX/SEN. But of course, as it is, the most effective way is to stack the favours in your way, superman+armormelt+bless.

  I really enjoy your reviews but I think there's some things you could do to improve: 1. Use Audacity to remove the fuzz in the background. Free open source program, totally worth it. 2. Plan your reviews slightly. just a rough bullet points plan of what to talk about, not an actual script. 3. refining the videos down a little, maybe multiple takes to add/remove whatever you want. You've got so much experience in the wild and hard RPGs of yesteryear and I think you'd be really popular if your content was slightly more approachable. I love it but the average person is not very competent or thoughtful. Not trying to take away from what you do at all, as I said I love it. Just want to see you rewarded more.

  Thanks for posting this interesting video. With this game the programmers cheated big time. D&D is a written rules based game and the dungeon master is supposed to be an impartial referee and not the ruler of Hades. Despite this the coders decided to unilaterally remove the players gear and have them awake naked in an inn. There is nothing in the rule book that would allow this. Players that used a disk editor to restore their gear and added a few more bottles of Dust of Dissapearance as compensation were just responding to the company's massive cheating. Gameplay was much smoother after the illegally stolen gear was righfully restored.

  I just got my human magic-user up to experience level six, so now he can learn the fireball spell, (which he did). But when I encamp and memorize my spells, "fireball" doesn't even appear on the list of spells in which I can choose to memorize, even though I learned it. I don't get this game at all.

  43:00 I played on a MUD thats been around, since the late 1990s. Thankfully there are still players that have been there for 20 years. A few of the secrets that were put in. The inputs are very specific, and no relevant information is given how to discover them. What the programmers did a long time ago was tell "certain" players. How to access it. Therefore almost no one other than the developers can readily access these rooms. That is because you will not know where to do command imputs in a specific places. I believe it was done on purpose not to be necessary for advancement, nor getting something special. It was hidden for the purpose of staying hidden, while still being accessible.

  Please don't misunderstand me; I think that this is a fantastic game and Sirtech did a fantastic job with it. But it is the only Wizardry game I have not completed, (granted the first four games in the series I completed on a console, and I don't think I could have ever completed part 4 without an automap feature and a guide). But that being said, I could never complete this one because, as great as a game as it is, it just doesn't feel like a Wizardry game to me at all, and is such a huge departure form the previous entries in the series. Plus, some of the battles are so long and drawn out. In my opinion, the series peaked at part 7. I am watching this guide to perhaps motivate me to give it another shot. I think it would be great if someone got the licensing rights to make a part 9.
