[QUOTE="Angel of Adventure, post: 2533527, member: 19165"] [b]I sense some disagreement with my comments . . .[/b] It seems that, according to some of you, my comments about this mod sharpening gamin' skills is somewhat in dispute. :p Let me just say a couple of more things - 1) The ToH cannot be beaten by luck, only carefully moving around and picking up on the clues. If you rely on luck you will probably be dead within your first hour. 2) The real, acutalized fear of immenent death for you and your friends will make you a bettter gamer. You will be forced to make better decisions and work better together as a group. (Let's face it, most all encounters usually end with all the PCs living and all the monsters dead. ToH turns the tables on this, but all PCs know this going into it.) 3) Per cheating, this is certainly one mod that knowing all the secrets may not save you. You must still make smart decisions and make sure your fellow PCs do the same. Per meta/powergaming, ToH is not any kinder to those who can build kick butt characters on paper. It still comes down to what you do, not what you are capable of. (Per the accusation that I, or we, cheated in this mod, these cannot harm me. My friends and I beat the ToH, fair and square, and we are mightier for it!) Later, AoA (Ducks behind a rock before the tomato impacts with his face.) [/QUOTE]
