No I agree with this wholeheartedly. I guess my thing is that if a dev opens this up to the public / community then they are subject to an onslaught of unrealistic requests. There is a difference between make the undeadcow a playable character and oh and by the way can you change the ENTIRE graphics? I kind of feel bad I said I didn't like the icon now even. I guess my point is that everyone should be careful what they wish for. If something takes too much of a developer's time and energy than other cool things might get abandoned.

However my thurst for Goblin Mage blood can only be satiated with expansion content.True as this is; I find it refreshing to see a developer seeking audience feedback in direction.

I suspect that those who want improvements in QuestLord's graphics might not have been playing games yet back in the Apple II or DOS era. Maybe that is why its graphics are acceptable to some and not to others.

The graphics aren't broken. But I am guessing the higher resolution of the newer i devices require more hardware aliasing, enhancing the softened look.

Thanks for the conversation

Well said and quoted for truth. Looking forward to whatever the future has in store for QuestLord; whenever the developer seems fit to give us a hint.

I was trying to figure out how to say (essentially) the same thing earlier! So succinct! Thank you

I'll vote for more content - Eric was going to focus on the Quick Game mode, bring it on

But yes, one of my main niggles is the home button on the items screen, I keep hitting it when wanting to go back... If that would be changed, it would be great Other than that, nothing from my end, really.

Me too, hitting the back to main menu button instead of the back button that is...
