I had forgotten how difficult MM7 is at the start 02/22/2019, 05:56:49

Liliths Slave writes: It is so hard to get your skills and basic spell books because you never have enough money. Fighting is slow and tedious and even something as puny as a goblin lord takes time to kill. It often takes so much time to reload bows that I wonder if my A key is working properly! I can't mix a simple purple potion without somebody having an alchemy skill. The game becomes more fun later on but IMO contains too much tricky stuff to be anywhere near as enjoyable as 6 or 8. One thing I do like in 7 is the regeneration spell - it has kept my characters alive on so many occasions.
