    Looks great, and I love the music samples! :)

    What is this? It's very intriguing, whatever it is. image

    So we don't need to pick items up one by one any more?

    Is kelemvor aknowledge enough to have a phrase in baldur's gate: "tell whatever you want to kelemvor"... cos he become the lord of dead in the same year that begun the bhaalspawn crisis, aka Baldur's Gate 2 (1368DR), in 1369DR happens the Throne of Bhaal events.

    Well it's not wrong at all but maybe a bit forced.

    Awesome glow shrooms! That area might be part of Neera's side quests, maybe a wild magic zone?

    @mch202 yeah you might be right, here was me hoping it was a button to bring up a screen to customise your quick action buttons (F1-F12) ala Icewind Dale 2.

    @Dee et al, please ask the UI devs to add this :)

    If I recall, ascensions of gods are pretty high-impact in the Realms so everyone would be up-to-date in a matter of months, if not weeks.
    "Go talk to Kelemvor" might just be hip new slang.

    IRT Thread
    Those screenshots look good, lots of weird new stuff in the interface and environment. Can't wait!

    The mushrooms map looks totally psychedelic... I think @OneAngryMushroom will enjoy this map!
  • Fighting_FerretFighting_Ferret Member Posts: 229
    If you go to the Cemetery District in BG2 you will see a monument dedicated to Kelemvor, as the god of the dead, so apparently his ascension has already happened.

    Clearly Marketing doesn't know what they're talking about.

    *Shudders at the sight of PhillipDaigle's post*

    Blackguards give me the creeps... You can clearly tell they have sold their souls to an evil end...

    So Tazok is back to his BG1 self. Shame, I preferred his BG2 model. Though I think he shared that model with other monsters in the game. Will they still appear also?

    Also does anybody know why they didn't simply use his BG1 model in BG2?

    I think they stole his bg2 model from icewind dale. In BG2 his model is unique to the best of my recollection

    @ajwz You may be right. I think I may be getting confused with Tazog's model and the Orog's that appear (which were somewhat similar, but red and with different armour, I think).

    @PhillipDaigle "Who built this door, space dwarves?!"

    What is this? Door for ant? (Zoolander joke reference)
