I thought they had recalled it or something like that because when I checked the KOA price this morning it was back to full price. I figured they had sent them out in error. Is it even possible to recall an email?
While stealth may not be the best skill in the game, I quite enjoy it. Sneaking up and doing a ton of damage is nice, followed by a smoke bomb and even more big hits. The whole stealth type char just fits my playstyle. And rolling is win. Smoke bomb is a must if you go stealth though. I also have points in bow skills (albeit they aren't maxed, really focusing on capping dagger skills). I tear through things pretty quickly and am content with my pure finesse char. I am soooo tempted to try sorcery/finesse though, or at least pure sorc. Probably my second playthrough will be this.
Also: Smoke Bomb = invisible to all merchants/npc's and you can steal whatever you like.

You should look up random, probabilities have just not been on your side, i myself find crazy loot which i turn into scrap.. you may not be opening chests in the dungeons, some of which require you to pay attention.

Can you please tell us how many points you put in Persuasion to get "A Wink and a Smile"?
That's not how email works

Are there any specific post game quests that open up, like in Fable 2?
Whew. I was gonna say they can't recall a message from your gmail account.
Yes, I got the email and code too. Thanks Amazon!TheApatheticOne

Amazon gonna Amazon. Amazon is the best!
Although Gmail (had?) the beer goggle filter where you could recall an email within 10 seconds or so of hitting the send button!
I agree, I dont know how many times I clicked L1 at the beginning of the game to target a nearby enemy, then realizing the option just isnt there.
What I would really like is a way to center the camera in the direction you are facing. Yes, you can swing the camera around with the right analog stick, but it was just make it so much easier if you could do a quick camera change. Again, like in Zelda.
But they are really minor issues.
I almost made back my cost of buying a copy of Reckoning from the 14.99 + 20 codes. Thanks Amazon!
I have 26 active sidequests right now... Sheesh. Less is more guys.
Pressing one if the analog sticks in does that when you're moving.
Thanks!

I just found that last night in one of the Plains of Erathell dungeons.

A portion of my mana bar was blocked off from some curse or something. How do I restore it? I thought talking to the lady that cures curses would fix it but it didn't.

I just noticed that the Ring of the Magus (+1 sorcery) (iirc, might not remember the name exactly) actually give +2 to the Meteor Storm, not +1. And only to Meteor Storm. I have two such rings and both add an extra point to MS. I also have screenshots that show this (well photos I took with my phone hehe). I have no idea why this is. Doesn't really matter, at level 24 everything I needed in Sorcery was already maxed, but it's interesting.
You are using an ongoing spell or effect that blocks the mana to sustain itself!

Sustained spells use a portion of your mana bar continuously.

What's the damage of your Heart of Ember hammer? I found mine in Detyre mines and it does 187 damage. Just want to check if all the unique items are the same for everyone or maybe they got something to do with location or character level.
According to the devs, Uniques and Sets found randomly are all static. Uniques and Sets as part of a Quest reward are level scaled to a point.

Do you have to finish the whole ME demo to get them?

Currently lv.7, just cleared out the majority of the Web Wood, got my house fully upgraded. =) Was pleased to see how cheap that was.
Is it normal for the best piece of armor I have at this point to still be some crappy boiled leather armor? Rogue armor is drab as hell so far. I got the Perfidious Gloves, and I've been told that I can find the rest by simply farming the area where I found the gloves. Is this true? Does the area have to be exact, or more generalized?

Can someone tell me real quick if, now that the game has been out a week, there's a significant difference between 360 and PS3 versions? Is one better?
It was only for those that purchased the console versions.
Yep. It took me until ~lvl 15 to finally see some ok parts of sets for my Rogue. But yea, I agree that as a whole, the Finesse sets are pretty drab (and look VERY similar).

Fought some orange Ettin War Priests yesterday, more of a challenge. Though I only play on Normal. Level 6.
Also the dungeons I have found have been pretty short, are there longer, expansive dungeons as you go further along?

Finished the game. My thoughts on the final boss:
Still, love the game.
I was a warrior/mage that skilled in Blacksmithing/Sgaecrafting. Needless to say, I was stupid-powerful and untouchable. I finished the game and immediately re-started as a pure Rogue speccing heavily in Stealth and Persuasion. That should gimp me enough.
So sad to see the GB guys hating on the game, I'm having a blast with it. I can see how if you just came from Skyrim you might be burnt out on the genre right now. So glad I didn't like Skyrim.
Kinda "meh" final battle. I hate final bosses that are stupid.
The only way I can damage her is to use my full fate meter. So what does she do? She keeps throwing those fate projections at me to kill so that I can re-build my fate meter and do it to her again. Stupid.

I haven't heard of any major differences.

I don't think you can. The game even tells you in a hint that you can unbind sustained spells after casting them and they'll be kept up, I think that's a not-so-subtle acknowledgement that the 4 skill limit is there. It's one of the more annoying problems with the game.

Yeah, on hard one of those guys erased an hour of gameplay. I've been better at saving since then. I'm level 25 now and have abandoned sidequests and faction quests because the combat is getting really stale since no one is putting up a fight on Hard. Hell even
Balor put up zero fight against me. Disappointing to say the least.
I'm hoping to find that the end game sections are much harder than what I'm currently facing.
Whoa Whoa Whoa. Are we sure there isn't a way to bring up a power wheel like in every other similar games? This is fairly stupid if you can't. I'm playing as a 100% sorcerer and I need my healing, summon, elemental rage, and all the other elemental spells. Some drain MP quickly so I use the cheap ones to kill a single foe and use them only for crowd control.

I'm sad that I can't have any skank- tastic outfits for my elf wench like Alyn Shir's got on.
Why not make it a unique robe/ 2 slot outfit?
I think it would be cool to have some less armor- like designs available for both genders. I'd love to wander around in some of the NPC clothes. Not those lowly peasant/ farmer clothes either. Gotta be stylin' when I go to town!
Maybe I just haven't come across any interesting ones since I've spent more time on my big brute of a man.

Well of course I'm not sure, I just never managed to do it and there was no tutorial that explained how to do it. I'm playing as a sorcerer too but only ever need to use the three basic elemental spells + Meteor though. Healing was only needed while I had to save potions, but I haven't used one in ten hours or so (craft high health regen equipment and have some potions ready anyway just to be safe instead of Healing, they're better in any case - if you need one potion, chances are you'll need several so Healing won't be much use) so was kind of OK - but not being able to use summoning and the sustained defense spell is annoying. Hope I'm wrong though.
