The game is good but... Damn it! I HATE the puzzles!

[Merciful]

Legend of Grimrock 2 better remove all those damn puzzles. It is so frustrating. I keep getting stuck from point to point going in circles for hours. Damn those teleporters and pressure plates!

The combat is good and fun but puzzles need to go for Grimrock 2.

More focus on the dungeon crawling, killing, looting, RPG elements.

[Mr. Otter]

Yeah thats gonna happen. Pretty sure there will be more puzzles in the next game.

[Figwhistle2]

what is needed is logical clues to the puzzle solutoins not just random guessing at how many buttons to push, when, what order,etc. Where are the clues?

[dnlkiro]

Remove the puzzles and you kill the game

[Mr.Ninja]

Without the puzzles you'd have nothing but hack'n'slash. I think it's a good thing that the game doesn't hold my hand with too many clues. The more the feeling of actually accomplishing something when you finally get it.

[Thulsa Fucking Doom]

I agree with you Ronnie. But I can understand what Mr. Ninja says. I would like more plot/npcs too.

[Dr.Disaster]

dungeon crawler minus puzzles -> just another boring first person shooter

The clues are there. For every single puzzle in this game, if it's anything more complex than just "push 1 button", there's a clue.
For instance, there's a place where you need to push button, switch a lever 2 times, then push another button. And nearby, there's a secret room with a note: "I stored my surplus food in the nearby room. I don't remember exactly how I opened it, but I knew it took 2 buttons and 1 lever, with the lever being operated multiple times and ending in up position" --> clearly limits the number of possible combinations to 6, which is doable. But of course, if you don't find that note, then you're in trouble.

When i realized how difficult the puzzles were gonna be in this game I gave up,just dont have the time to figure them out, and its pretty stupid that I'd have to go to the web for every one. Im more into the hack n'slash games I guess. Definitly not getting the second one. Maybe its for some, not me though.

I would not play this game if they removed the puzzles. I like the breakup from the dungeon exploring.

David, it takes a man to admit that the "inadequacy" lies in you instead of blaming the game for being bad. Kudos to you! If only more people were willing to act like grown people - like you.

Have a nice day!

The puzzles are pretty easy if you're capable of basic logic/reasoning...

That's very arrogant to say. There is a multitude of different reasons why someone may be unable to solve the puzzle - language skill, eye-to-hand coordination, impaired sight etc.

There are hundreds of games that seem "easy" to their players that you would fail in, and you would feel insulted if someone said something like that about you, so please, don't.

The puzzles are what makes the game. without the puzzles the name would be the legand of zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

[Litewolf]

i hope more puzzel and must be harder one !

[Plaid]

remove the puzzles?! You've gotta be crazy!

Keep the puzzles and make them better.
Add deeper combat with more elaborate skill trees.
Built a greater variety of enemies.
Give us more stuff to find, better graphics, more environmental variation, etc.

Don't make the game stupid for people that can't figure out that this is as much a puzzle game as it is a game about exploration, memorization, combat and skill upgrades.

Use your brain or find another series, I say.
