Well, I finished the map, twice. Once on easy mode with a beginner, and the second time on master and hardcore.

Conclusion: the map is very good. It has its own storyline, a large number of quests, and the opportunity to max out a hero (although scouting is useless here), and it has its own unique balance. Of course, it's a bit off, but it exists. The most difficult part was the last titan, but the difficulty wasn't that he was super-powered, but rather because of the artifacts, as he likes to give everyone the strength of a dragon, and you can't remove or steal it.

In short, I really liked the map; it's a shame that I didn't get enough points to reach legendary status, but it's still good.

In short, I really liked the map, it's a pity that I didn't get one point to reach the legend, but it's okay anyway.

Thank you. Scouting is not useless at all; if you quickly pump up stealth to GM, you can get a lot of experience (and not only) for free, and during the first playthrough, the scouting skill simplifies the exploration of the map. And also, if you don't pump the third combat skill, you will still become an archmage, which not everyone would want.

Thank you. Scouting is definitely not useless; if you quickly level up stealth to GM, you can get a lot of experience (and more) for free, and during the first playthrough, the scouting skill simplifies map exploration. Also, if you don't level up the third combat skill, you will become an archmage anyway, which not everyone would want.

Well, yes, but experience stops being useful when you're already at level 30 and finding the same chests. I just took it for the gold.

And regarding specialization (archmage), yes, that's true. It's a pity that you can't really choose it, selecting from the skills you have and changing them as needed during the game. It's a bit of a cheat, but it's interesting.

Yes, by the way, I had a question. Why are there only guilds of Order and Chaos in the game? I expected to see guilds of Life and Death as well.

Because this was a suggestion from one of the first (or the very first) alpha testers – to make the game more replayable. Colda didn't have enough resources or artifacts to do much more, and the game already seems to have all possible bonuses.

I'm a furry dragoness, 'cause I can.

Silos Zanj only suggested the guild of mages; I came up with the guild of heretics myself, and the idea to make them mutually exclusive only appeared in 2020. The fact that there are no guilds of Life and Death is already my oversight; many things were invented as the work progressed, and this is the problem with such an approach: without a clear content plan or even an idea of what the final result should be, many ideas seem rather far-fetched. If I had decided to implement them when I returned to the map in 2020, I would have had to radically change many things. So, we have what we have.

Can anyone suggest what to do? I've been struggling with it for 2 days now. I can't complete the thieves' quest, specifically the very first one. I don't understand what to do after the post office. Please, kind people, help me with some advice.

In the first thieves' quest, you need to:
1) Visit Romales' house in Glintatown, then visit the elven hut in Quel-Timrane (the elven city underground);

2) Visit the bakery in Glintatown;

3) Steal armor from the army depot in Glintatown and send it by mail (I assume this has already been done);

After that, you can return to the house where the quest started.
