I still feel isolation in dungeons, hell, I even feel isolated while exploring the island

This time round, we have quite a 'Myst'-like atmosphere in outdoor areas while in dungeons you have a classic unbeatable Grimrock atmosphere

I felt isolated until I ran into the trickster. Now I just feel like I want to murder him over and over and over and over.......

So far (my characters are level 8 now) I would agree with two things, already mentioned in this thread, that I'm missing in LoG2:
1. No empty bottles needed in alchemy.
2. No claustrophobic suffocating isolation atmosphere.

They are both very minor issues though and it's nothing game-breaking.
I fully understand that LoG2 is a new game with new and unique theme and atmosphere.

How is that guys ??

About empty bottles, I miss it so hard, now you can't just make potion without recepy.
Abouut charged weapons, probably yes, now it become some kinnd useless, because it takes too much time and energy to charge it, in LoG1 I used that in 'gangbang' situations. But mostly I want the returning of treasures (useless gold things), that was so exciting to find those.

These should be easy to mod into user maps.

But it usn't interesting if treasures would be same as in LoG1, so you also need a good art designer.

exactly the same feeling. I am quite dissapointed from new skill system, I expected much more. Les hope it will be fully moddable

I enjoy both skill systems ... mb this one is more elaborate and allows for more combinations ? Because in LoG 1 you really had to focus one tree
