[QUOTE="Lord_Blacksteel, post: 7708052, member: 53082"] Very cool to bring up an oft-overlooked game. I have this nit to pick though: [COLOR=#000000][I]"There's really nothing in the fiction to demonstrate that the sword Stormbringer is a demon bound into a weapon."[/I] Except the climactic scene of the whole series? You know the one, right? The end of the sixth book? Right before "The end of the saga of Elric of Melnibone"? That was in print by 77 so it was out there before the game was written. I'm pretty sure it's what inspired that whole bound demon thing in the game.[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000] (Avoiding spoilers to a 40 year old book here, I know, but it's the ultimate moment of the series in a lot of ways) I like the post but that line jumped off of the screen at me.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
