Some typos in 1.1 (spoilers)

#1 Post by adeyke » Tue Jan 28, 2003 10:14 am

I just played 1.1 through for the first time <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> . I had had a list of things to report but had to make sure they're actually still in 1.1..<br><br>When trying to swim to the unswimmable screen, from the west, the word "East" shouldn't be capitalized.<br><br>When you use the emerald on Valanice after moving the mirror but before adjusting it, there's a comma that shouldn't be there.<br><br>When you click the hand on the building at top-right from the town gate screen, "Beyond" shouldn't be capitalized.<br><br>Also, I noticed that after I arrived at the tower realm, my inventory was blank. That is, it was scrolled down to below where my items were. This might be because I was already scrolled down and then used the last row of inventory, and it didn't automatically scroll up a line. Nothing major, though. <p></p><i></i>

When you use the hand icon in the coffin room, the message is : <br><br>"You <b>are loath</b> to touch anything in this room!"<br><br>I think it should read:<br><br>"You loathe to touch anything in the room!"<br><br>Just a thought <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif" /><br> <p></p><i></i>

Loath (also spelled loth) means "Unwilling or reluctant; disinclined," so this would actually be correct. <p></p><i></i>

How about the one just before the closeup of Graham and the Enchanter?<br><br>It says that the Enchanter "does not dare breath."<br>Shouldn't that be "does not dare breath<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>e</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->"?<br><br>After all, "breath" is a noun, and what is needed is an infinitive, like "to breathe"... however "to" isn't and doesn't need to be there in that case.<br><br>Also, the Sharkee King and Neptune (when seen in the endgame) both mention "the Mer-peoples' <<something or other>>."<br><br>It should be "...Mer-people's..." Unless of course there are other mer-races allied with Neptune and his folk who would also be in danger from the Sharkees and would celebrate Graham's return of the trident. <p></p><i></i>
