Might and Magic Might & Magic X - Legacy

To be fair, almost all dungeons are small with a short nearest way to the exit. Afaik there are only three longish ones - the Portmeyron Castle, the Lost City nad the Tomb. In the first one you don't have the beacon yet, Lost City is laced with various exits and you're not meant to pop out from the Tomb before you're done there.

But to get to exit, you have to go through several unnecessarily long load screens. And you can't even switch to browser - damn game stops level loading when window is not active.

Hopefully the patch will improve that too.

They haven't changed the Earth GM spell FFS

 

[Average Manatee]

Not like Earth needs a buff.

Oh yeah, that is the worst thing. I can't alt-tab while loading? Seriously?

The only major bug I've found is the Fire Shard puzzle where one of the rocks will move before I'm on it preventing me from completing. And the Beacon I guess.

So, as a general opinion, does MMX qualify over Dead State early access, or which way does it go? I haven't tried DS yet because of my state of being (Dddd runk), but I'd just like to know for the fuck of it.

Are you seriously asking whether you should buy a finished game or a beta demo

No. I've finished MMX already and have a second run on the go. I just ask people for comparisons for the fuck of it. :D

 

[Mortmal]

213 pages with people fighting each others , fundamentalists of two faith battlings, blackguard vs MMX, and theres still a guy asking if its good or if its better than a demo...

Wait, is there supposed to be a difference nowadays

It takes some eye, though, to notice... just like before.

The finished games might be betas but they're usually not demos.

 

[Excidium]

They sure feel like it with how limited the scope usually is.

 

[Bubbles]

Can MMX really be called "finished" if the first patch after launch includes three new dungeons, one of which already has an achievement in the game?

I don't know, can RoA HD really be called "finished"?

 

[Average Manatee]

Any word on how the new dungeons are integrated? Are they accessible in the middle of the game or post-game?

the limbo dungeon at the very least is postgame.

 

[Average Manatee]

I'm hoping they all are and that the new stuff is a way to challenge end-game groups rather than simply more stuff for mid-game groups to grind up on and become OP with.

You fail at puzzles.

There's a reset button in the Fire Shard puzzle for a reason.

Sounds like the puzzle might actually already be solved. it's not a bug, you're not supposed to step on the moving float. You get to the node from the other side of the cave.

 

[Turjan]

So I caved in and bought this sucker. The start is already spot on.

Just out of mild curiosity, and I don't want to read the whole thread to find out, how did a game like this end up with UPlay? In some ways, it's like a clash of worlds.

ubisoft owns might and magic and they not so recently started investing or being more open towards oldschool small budget games made by passionate people.

 

[Turjan]

Ah, thanks. Let's see how long this love affair lasts. I cannot imagine those games sold well.

 

[GlutenBurger]

Is it possible to leave Karthal Jail before you've rescued the guy? I'm unable to collect him because I stupidly went in with a quest companion and a packhorse who has become loaded with loot. Backtracking is impossible because a door closed behind me, and I'm not sure whether trying to fight my way out to sell the excess loot will be a waste of time when I could simply load an earlier save and start the segment again.

I suppose there's also the option of dumping the unwanted loot and firing the packhorse immediately, but I'm a miser.

I hit the beacons in a clockwise manner starting from one nearest the end destination (the 'fire wall' door), then started going across - indeed from 'the far side of the cave'. Just as my party moves onto a square next to a moving piece which I had already moved there in order to cross the final bit of lava, the piece suddenly moves away from me as if I had pushed a button.

GlutenBurger fire one dude, then as soon as you're done go back to wherever you found him and rehire him. The loss of 100 gold or whatever, compared to minutes of your life wasted. Easy toss.
