Can't talk to Elf

#1 Post by Elendil » Tue Sep 01, 2015 2:03 am

I can't talk to the elf or to the whittling gnome. I use the speech cursor and click on the figure repeatedly but get the message, "That's strange, there's no answer."

Am I doing something wrong or is there possibly a glitch in my game?

That sort of things usually means you're not hitting the hotspot of the cursor on what you're trying to click. The hotspot is the red dot; on the talk cursor, it's at the base of the speech bubble. Make sure that's over the character you're trying to click on.

Thanks, I figured that out myself already. I was assuming the red peak of Graham's cap was the hotspot.

Talking to those guys sure opened the game up!
