Grimrock 2 import?

Post by Destro »

I am sure someone has posted about this somewhere but I didn't find it. Would you want to be able to import your characters from Grimrock 1 into Grimrock 2? I myself am torn about it There is certainly room to develop characters skill point wise and it would be interesting if carrying all those "treasures" out would have an impact on how well off you started in Grimrock 2. On the other hand I wouldn't want to start so well off in Grimrock 2 that it isn't challenging (perhaps there could be a special import only difficulty or simply scaled up). Plus they may add new classes and races in which case Importing may seem like less fun anyway. Ok my rant is over, does anyone else have any thoughts?

Did you say "Import"? "Scaling"? Have you seen Master Quest? :D :mrgreen:

Hello and welcome to the forums! :)

One of the foremost reasons for doing a full blown sequel instead of an expansion/dlc was that we would have the freedom to change things as we please and one of the areas where we still want to exercise that freedom (but which we haven't gotten around to doing) is the character systems like skills and such. We think that there is room for improvement there so there's a very real possibility that the characters themselves will be so different between 1 and 2 that a conversion would be kind of difficult or even pointless to do.

And yeah, we wouldn't want people to miss the opportunity to try out the new races and classes either. :)

That's exactly what I had in mind when I said scaling haha. And yeah I kind of figured that if new classes were added the old ones would be changed or even without new classes there would be changes, I forgot to write that as a consideration before. And thank you! I signed up a while ago but I only just activated and this is my first day posting lol. I don't really ever post in forums so I have no idea how to work any of the mechanics but thank you both for posting replys so quickly!
