Hi Dark, Ah, that does make sense. However, I will say for the record future games in the series will all be 3D First-Person style games and not 2d side-scrollers. I wouldn't have created MOTA as a side-scroller to begin with if it hadn't turned out I had to create a game to replace Montezuma's Revenge. Since I had promised to release a side-scroller I changed my plans for Mysteries of the Ancients to bea a First-Person game and decided to release it as a side-scroller. Unfortunately, that decision has made me deeply unhappy with the game ever since. I'm afraid to say I'll never fully be satisfied with it until I am given the freedom to create the game I wanted and not the one the public apparently wants.
The lesson I've learned is the only person who can make me happy is mme, and I shouldn't be influenced too much about public opinion. Fact of the matter is once MOTA is released I am going to be a lot less open about customer input, comments, and suggestions. If it is something I agree with, happen to like, etc sure I'll go ahead and do it. If not they can just forget it. I'm a little tired of the constant requests to add this or that when it clearly is not something I would have added or done myself. It is my game, I should be able to create it the way I want, but I haven't ever been allowed to really do that ever since I started work on it. So future games in the series will be done my way or no way at all. They can love it or hate it. I don't really care. Anyway, I see your point about possibly confusing weapons like swords, knives, arrows, etc as they all sound pretty much the same. That's something I hadn't really thought about, but makes a world of sense. So I think I should probibly just leave things as they are in that case.
