I don't get this game. Why is everyone so excited about it?
Is it turn based?
I haven't gotten to any monsters, mostly because I can't figure out how the mage works with his spells.
If its real time, how do I command 4 characters to do something without it being turn based?
I'm so very confused about this game.
It's like phased base. It's on a timer, it's like turn but if you don't do anything, it will gladly continue on. Bioware'ish.
You have to get a scroll to learn the spells. You don't use them or anything, you learn it as you pick it up. Scroll worthless afterwards.
Right click a magic users hand, click the icon in the scroll, then click the blue swirl. Presto changeo!
Just to nit pick here... You don't use a scroll to 'learn' a spell... It just gives you the 'recipe'... Which you can also find out on your own...
And on the other side, having levels for spells unlocked, but not knowing what they are, is rather annoying... I have most of my points in Fire/Spellcraft, and three lines of Spell: ???... I guess I need to experiment more (fighting the urge to google it).

Also, I really hate those damn skeleton warriors.
Just wait till you get 4 at a time : ) Though, I find that easier than the 2-3 wandering separately...
