He's already made his decision. For this game at least, he's going to stick with the original. It's what most of us wanted, so that's what we're getting. The only thing I didn't like is that he's replacing Angela Smith, but from the sounds of things we haven't seen the last of her, so it's all good. It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you with no place to go. >From: chris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Gamers Discussion list <gamers@audyssey.org> >To: Gamers Discussion list <gamers@audyssey.org> >Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Thoughts about Montezuma's Revenge. >Date: Sun, 01 Oct 2006 11:54:03 +0100 > >Hi, Just to add my info, like has been said here, the original should >be kept, or you just might find a hole lot of people asking for >refunds, and yes, I do remember that you have stated, refunds will >only be given as tokens of a future production you bring out, but you >will still be the looser in the long run. > >So please keep to the original as much as possible. > >Regards > >Chris 'England' > >At 19:51 29/09/2006, you wrote: > >Tom: Your ideas, each one followed by my thoughts: > > > >Today I have been doing some major revising of the Monty game engine, > >and I've really had some ideas how I could make the game better, but by > >introducing the changes it may completely alter the original intent of > >the game. > >Thought: You've already hit on why you should not make these changes. >It > >changes the game's original intent.
