For example, a monster hurts you.  How would would you be able to tell without numbers?  If its a graphical implementation, you might not notice.. and that is not life-like (people always notice if they are hurt).

Castle of the Winds.  It\'s a great game.  I found out this year that Castle of the Winds II is now FREEWARE!  I FINALLY GOT TO AVENGE MY MURDERED FAMILY!

I remember! Oh man, that was ridiculously fun. I need to get my hands on it again... And the sequel! My god :3~~

All the notes hidden around everywhere were so awesome to read.

Notes?  There weren\'t that many, where there?

Two actual letters in the first one, then a few more plot related ones in the sequel right?  I\'m not counting plot developements like when your home or village is razed.

Well, the kobalds were gaurding one note and the king of the hill giants was gaurding another.  Besides that, there\'s the opening story line, then the story when your house burns down, then the story when the town is razed, then the story when you travel to the second town or activate the amulet of kings.  That\'s what I remember off the top of my head.  I only played through the sequel twice so I don\'t remember it as well.

The ending to the whole thing is kinda lonely though... very influenced by viking mythology, but lonely!  If you haven\'t played the sequel then I won\'t spoil it.

Ah, Castle of the Winds 2!!!  I had absolutely forgotten about that game!  I agree with you guys, that was a fun game.

Back on topic, I didn\'t realize that you meant keep the bars, but just take out the numbers, I thought just have damage show up on the character...

LOL Talk about \"Off Topic\".  Im glad some good has come out of my anti-RP Idea.  

I suppose I didnt think of it in that I would be destroying some part of the whole meaning of the game.  Such knowledge is best left in the eyes of the gods...

...forgive me laanx...(Ignores Talad)

Besides, I dont have much time left :(

I think your idea is great.  Just keep it in character and in game, that\'s all.

I also gave you a lot of swords for study in-game, but then you got possessed and kidnapped or something.  You were in the plaza taking orders from some crazed elf... you emptied your inventory, then deleted your character.  It struck me.

Hehe... sorry about that (shal) I did try and give them back to you but you kept closing the trade window.  I owe you big time!. I deleted the character by mistake and when I realised Id deleted her, I was too depressed to recreate her again.

It was Embers Wildflame a diaboli atually... which reminds me I must finish the story off, theres alot of confussion of what happened (I say story but its more like an acount of events).

Looks like Im guilty now of \"Off-Topic Conversation\" LOL.
