    Awesome reviews Tipa! Totally fair on Coeden as well. If you are wondering about the drop in encounter quality, I did make it before Arroway Manor but only published it recently because, well - I thought I had already published it. Oops. :P

    A big thank you to both Tipa and Kasul for the continued weekly reviews! Solid constructive feedback is fairly limited in the slim review space the foundry system offers. Your thoughtful reviews offer valuable insight into a quest's actual play-through experience. These reviews help both the readers and original author improve their current and future quests.

    For my quest, I will certainly look into having the cowardly lizard warrior be a true warrior if the PC chooses the harder option. The easy mode version of the warrior does follow the PC around as a friendly encounter. But, at some point during the creation process, I got sick of how frequently the warrior died against hard mode encounters and made him an NPC until the PC reaches the shrine. Now that I am more comfortable with using hidden triggers, I'll revisit having the hard mode lizard warrior actually aid in the defense of his village once again.

    Thanks again for the weekly reviews and for running through my quest! I'm looking forward to reading through more of your reviews!

    1. This is the problem with detailed reviews. There is never enough space to put them in.
    2. Exactly. As a reviewer, you have to look both from the perspectives of the author and the potential player. They have done just that making their analysis' reliable to both audiences.

    Ah, we always use hard mode, when available. Which was kinda fun -- we'd smash down those doors and go RAWWWWWR HARRRD MODDDDE! And the lizard would get lost.

    A fun read as always - and thank you for throwing a spotlight on Mere Expedition. I hadn't played that one before, and it was truly stunning.
