"Bright moments"
Thought I would share some intertaining moment in my time spent with Wizardry 8:

- Having played through the monestary several times, to get a feel for races and classes. Moving through a corridor into a room with a tempting red button on the wall. Thinking "why don't I go over and push the bottun, BEFORE I rest?"! Can't really use the excuse "But, but...the room LOOKED empty" when you have been there before 6 or 7 times.....

- Leaving the monestary for the first time, when something comes flying through the air like a meteorite from hell. Thinking "AAAAAH, vampire demons comming to rip me apart!!!!".
Only to realise it's just an animation of a falling leaf.

- In Arnika, short on everything from hp to sp running from some local scum. Diving through a door, closing the door and thinking "I made it". Try to rest - only to be interrupted, auto-spunned around to se the door open behind you, and 6 raiders peeking in, most likely saying "I told you they went in here".
Obviously I didn't know the enemy could open doors.....

- In Trynton, after killing the Rapax with the trynnie guards, decided to heal the guards, to see if they respond diffently in gratitude. Only got a "Beware not to fall of the bough" in response. I smile, thinking "OK, nothing usefull there", and go to investigate the far corner for hidden items. Weeeeeeeeeee.....
Pretty stupid, eh? Wasn't my first time there either. Did I mention it was an Iron-man attemt ?
Lucky me, I have Vi with me, and she survives in her Valkyrie way (knocked out, with 18 hp). I think "It's gonna cost me a fortune in ressurect powders, but I made it!". Only to realise the game is paused, and on top of the screen it says: "6 plants, 4 plants, 2 plants........".

Thank you for the best laugh I've had in a long time!

2. "Watch out for falling leaves"
.. I never got why that was in the game ... especially in spots with no trees, or trees shorter than where this single leaf seems to fall from

3. "The answer is blowing in the wind"
You can hear the wind blowing, so you can see the leaves blow too. Speaking of inappropriate effects, why is it raining INSIDE Crock's place ? And why doesn't he have a fireplace, like the Monastery lunch room ? The first time I entered the swamp was in December and I could FEEL that cold damp swamp !!
