    That explains alot

    Wow! For a one man show I give Jason a lot of credit. It's a great achievement in that context.

    Unfortunately as a consumer, I am still disappointed. I want more. Bottom line: difficulty balance, skills, and character uniqueness must all be addressed before I'll be interested in buying expansion quests. The replayability of Oblivion came from it's flexibility and variety. Without those elements, 2 playthroughs are all I need.

    Over there --->
    Aren't there two people working on this? Josh and Jason?
    I'm not saying it's not any less of a gigantically magnificent accomplishment or anything. Just asking.

    Just finished my second playthrough (this time as a Mage). man, what a great game this is.

    Quick question... do the pipe and tobacco really do anything? When equipped it makes a few small puffs of smoke (at 500 gold each use).

    Or is it really just a public service announcement that tobacco products cost you a lot of money and it's a terrible habit? :)

    You lost what? We can't really help you if you use such an ambiguous word as "it".

    Hahahahahaha my bad! OK here's your answer:
    In Callaheim, you'll find an orc (?) close to the harbor. He'll sell you a variety of fishing rods.

    Edit: Specific locations:
    East Callaheim, Callaheim Bay. There's an orc called Harg Gutter, trade with him. He'll have the original fishing rod, and two higher quality variants. Cheers!

    I have questions about merificus, but first, a secret quest you may not know about. If you sail to redrock bay and then go to Valemar keep in the southeast corner of the map, you can fight your way through it and you will find a key from one of the people. Then, you can go into the main part of Valemar keep (which is in the back of the bottom floor, centered between the left and right side is the large door). Once in the main part, fight your way through and somewhere in there is a dungeon. Inside the dungeon, you will soon loot 4 keys which open jail cells. Inside a jail cell later on is guy who gives you a quest to seek out an ice dragon in the far north. You can get to the dragon by sailing to redrock bay and then traveling north to the mountain pass, where you will find a snowy zone. Talk to the dragon in lair, do the quest by going into the shadowspire mines and killing a dragon, then you go back and talk to the ice dragon, which flies you to the "Shadowspire." At the very end of the spire through 3 different parts is Merificus in demon form. The way I beat him was to run up, damage him, he will stun you and knock you back, then run back up and repeat. If you stay far away, he summons monsters that attack you.


    Anyway, my question:I killed merificus in his lair, but then i was Teleported to the rich house in callahaim east. I still had "The plan" quest because I never got the scepter (question two- why won't the sun dragon talk to me? He has a ! Mark over his head). Anway, I killed merificus the non-main story way and I don't know if I should abandon "the plan" and talk to the man who was next to the king in that nobles house.

    No secrets there. You basically jumped the gun on the main quest (the story would have had you do all that stuff anyway). Go ahead and talk to Darius (the guy standing next to the king). He'll probably give you quests that you already did, but you will also probably be able to hand I the quests right away (well, maybe all except for the scepter one).

    Sun claw won't talk to you because his mouth hurts. Go searching around Karn for a Soothing Balm and bring it back to Sunclaw. Problem is, that all leads to getting the main storyline parts that you already did so there is really no pooping in doing it...

    Crescent Moon Games did help with it, I think design wise mostly though.

    Jason did all the actual coding himself though.

    I think this game would be just what people want it to be if there was a giant team working on it, non stop, but it's only a handful of people, so everything takes longer, and is more prone to bugs.

    The sapphires are randomly placed in chests; you'll run into the just keep questing.

    No, I found several when I backtracked to Taryn Ridge and a few North of Calleheim. The sapphires appear entirely randomly, just proceed and you'll find them. The guilds in Calleheim have a lot of quests requiring you to venture and return anyway so explore and you'll find them. Sapphires are not an exclusive quest item there are more than 3 and they show up as treasure similar to emeralds, topaz, etc and you would normally just sell for gold.

    Doubtful that there is a solution to selling irreplaceable quest items, this is one of the pitfalls of open ended games. I think the lock is too high to pick.
