QFG4 Greatness
Remember in QFG4, while playing with the magic user, Baba Yaga teaches you a spell called hide. And when you are out in the wilderness and encounter a monster you can always cast hide and the monster wont be able to see you and will eventually go away.
Maybe anyone else has also noticed this, but the hide spell won't help you if you encounter bats. And why not? Of course, because bats can't see anyway. They detect your presence by the echo of their screams. So no matter how much you "hide", the bats will attack you.
Pretty cool huh? In my view these are the small things that combine together and make a game classic. Which QFG4 really is.

From Wikipedia Article on Bats (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bats)
Bats aren't blind. A common misconception.Although the eyes of most microbat species are small and poorly developed, their sense of vision is typically very good, especially at long distances, beyond the range of echolocation. It has even been discovered that some species are able to detect ultraviolet light.
