Legend of Grimrock Patch Plans

The Legend of Grimrock Website has a launch week update, saying the dungeon crawler can still be had for its 10% preorder discount, and also outlining plans for the game's first patch, to address the following issues:

  • vsync is enabled by default
  • borderless windows are no longer topmost
  • pressing ESC closes character sheet
  • fixed unlimited frost arrow exploit
  • bug fix: topmost menu item don’t work reliably in 2560×1440 resolution
  • bug fix: wall text translations are not dismissed when right-clicking
  • bug fix: inanimate objects can be backstabbed
  • bug fix: projectiles go through doors in some very rare cases
  • improved display resolution auto-detection at first launch
  • fixed a couple of typos
  • removed check that disables high texture resolution setting when running low on video memory (some graphics drivers seem to report available video memory incorrectly)

This has nothing to do with games being dumbed down. In this case the game has made something more complicated than the old school games it's modeled after.

I don't know how Dungeon Master did it, and Arx Fatalis is a different class of game since you are in control of one person, not managing a party of characters. The games I grew up playing were AD&D titles like Pool of Radiance and Eye of the Beholder, none of which required YOU to memorize spells. Once the character learned the spell, to make them cast it you select their spell book then click the spell to cast.

As it is now in Grimrock, I'm regretting bringing a mage. The other characters are leveling faster than the mage is because for the mage to attack it requires a minimum of 3 clicks to cast a spell while the others only require one click to attack. I usually cast one spell then just finish the fight with the other three characters unless I have room to retreat enough to re-select the symbols for another spell.
