Yes, I spent 19 weeks of game time sitting in the shop reading.
The shop had cheap rations, which was good, since every 3 readings of the book took 2 days. I sat in the store and read all through both books 100 times (that's how many times you can read a book before it wore out). One game I got a copy of Thiful's Bird Migrations via a sidequest, and then bought another one at a store. Of course, that didn't tell you if it had gone up +1 since you last checked, or +5. These increases were never announced of course, though the first time you looked at the char screen after a change, any value that had changed was highlighted. So if you took your time and rested often, you would tend to gain more hp/stam. In Betrayal at Krondor, your hp/stam went up one point every two weeks of game time that passed. If you haven't played Betrayal at Krondor - it's fairly hard to get working but it's totally worth it (and I can help anyone who needs to get it running).Įdit: it was also released by Sierra to generate interest in either Antara or Return to Krondor. Since I travelled a lot, even my magician has 120 HP/Stamnia total though He's a terror on the battlefield. It, like most skills, grow pretty gradually. The only way I could figure out that my HP/Stamina were going up is that they'd show up as red in the character sheets. Think mazes that burn through your torches with an encounter at every turn. With the dungeons in that engine you aren't missing a whole lot. The good news is that they also buy at very high rates, so after that gold isn't much of an issue. In one of the chapters a city is going through a guild crisis, and all of the wares are overpriced. In Betrayal at Krondor money could easily be quite a problem - you'd be lifting the worst swords and armor for a paltry 5-6 gold, but at a few moments you can really cash in.
I guess we're comparing apples to much older apples, so my 'help' might not really be worth anything So is Antara any good? I read a very harsh review of it, perhaps by those expecting it to be Betrayal at Krondor 2 (Return to Krondor, which also flopped lol). Again, this is if the engine kept all of these features smile.gif Shop-keeps will hold onto what you sell them forever, but you have to buy it back. Word-boxes are even safer, and in v 1.02, infinitely safe. Chests are safer, but you don't wanna leave for too long. Leaving things outside in caches and bags is risky, as it may disappear. In BaK, though, you can do a few things for extra storage.
Shops are your friends, and extra equipment is your enemy. In Betrayal at Krondor, you're limited in what you can carry by what's in the inventory - no extra backpacks or anything. Travelling tends to increase health and stamina, and strength goes up in hard fights, along with those other skills. The combat remains believeable through the entire game this way, preventing any character from taking a ridiculous amount of hits before reducing his combat effectiveness. Kakero - I can only answer from Betrayal at Krondor.but it's the same engine so it might be the same.
