I don't think my wife thought that when I brought her there. The guy running the wheel appreciated my style though!

ARGH, this game sucks. I was not interested in it at all, but my friend still decided to bring it over one night for me to check out. I watched him play for a while, listened to his sales pitch and decided that it looked like a fun game and that night, I went out and bought it. That was Sunday. Since then I've had maybe 4 hours of sleep a night. I've skipped out on nights out with friends just to stay home and play this game. It's seriously what a crack addiction must feel like.

Do you take a corruption hit for that? I mean it's not like you killed her, exactly.

Lame. An entire village in my game was killed in a, uh, natural disaster. The next day it just respawned.

I'm having trouble finding someone for an assassination mission. It's the one for Peter the Monk. There are plenty of monks walking around the pub he's suppose to be in but I can't find him and time for the mission is running out. Did anyone else run into this?

OK - I merged with my "glitched" gambler yesterday. All I saw was a bunch of unlockables that I got, experience, and cash. No ill will so far.

Does it get better, more interesting?


I totally agree

Am I the only one who thinks it's a bad idea that they used the same button to back out of menus and also to instill all surrounding villagers with fear as you break out a powerful magic spell if you press the button once too much?

I agree 100%! I've made that mistake too many times already.

I did that too many times. I don't understand why they won't let us customize our own controller buttons...

Yes, my villagers are getting tired of time stopping, they run away in fear and don't patronize my furniture store.

I just finished beating up the ghost pirate. Really getting sick of having to find these gargoyles.

So how do I lose weight in the game? My guy looks like Violet from Willy Wonka, and I didn't even eat much!

The only thing that I've found is to eat celery. It's available at produce traders once every 24 hours per stand.

eating vegetables, really just celery is your best bet, takes 5lbs off your weight. look at the 'fat content' of your food. just eat the negatives for awhile.

My "wife" is missing... After I successfully rescued my "daughter" from Hobbes and Alex is still alive, scolded at her for going on adventure. When I returned to "home" and Alex's not there and I couldn't find her anywhere in Oakfield or other villages. Any idea where she is? Should I add her picture on milk carton?

Is that the same "Alex" that the ghost wants you to devastate emotionally? I went the classic route of doing just that. Maybe there's some sort of a penalty if you go ahead and marry her?

Spoiler:
I just did that last night (right before I saw you online) and I married her. The ghost was happy that she was happy.
