I don't recall a point where I couldn't do side quests, but I had none left, I think, before I ventured into the last part of the game. When you set out on the last quest, it sort of has "end game" flashing in neon, anyway.
I better get back to my game! It'll take me a couple of hours to remember what I'm doing -- right in the middle of a huge battle.

I am working on getting the items for the star ship. I have a problem with the crystal in Thalgard. The map marker can't be correct. There is no way to get to it.
Found it by heading north toward the big round light. There is a stairway there. Heading into the workshop to find the cube.
I have the cube and alloys, so will be heading off in the star ship.

You're chugging right along, then. It's a decent game, especially since it was free! You have to love the dedication, making something like that for others to enjoy.

Yes, I'm looking forward to Nehrim. I had it on a disk a while back, but when we moved it got scratched and I never downloaded it again.
The ability to improve magic weapons is great, I think. I've upgraded all my stuff. But you do find excellent weapons along the way.

I think that's the camp you can fast-travel to, so It's handy because there's a merchant there. Because my character is a cowardly archer I do sometimes draw enemy monsters close to villages and other populated sites and watch other people take the pounding I was meant to take. I rationalize that since I have to save the world, I better stay alive.

I think food only works if you aren't in combat.

You're ahead of me now! I tried to play the other day and my old Alienware seems to have given up the ghost. My other computer won't run it. I'll have to see if it can be resurrected but if not it may be time for a new gaming laptop. How did you kill the boss? I had an awful time, being an archer, and that was why I stalled at that point.

I guess being an archer is great up to the point where you actually have a challenge, and then it's not so great. My computer was running the game perfectly. It's just old, and starting to have problems, not the least of which was a complete freakout a while back in which it inexplicably did a factory reset on bootup without being asked to do so, and in the process I lost some of my game installations like my modded Fallout 4. Also, its internal Alienware backup system stopped working properly a while back and I'm not even sure what's backed up and what isn't. Not a huge deal, because the only thing that's eve on it is games, but still it's an annoyance. I'm taking it in next week for a checkup.

I think I did all of the available quests except for the one given to me by the kid right at the start of the game -- I think you have to find a number of locations and I couldn't be bothered. There was a lot to explore in this game and it's got decent re-playability.
So, what are you playing next?

I haven't played any of the Mafia games. I'll check that out and see if I have any of them in my list of un-played games, which is embarrassingly long.

Hagatha, did you ever meet up with a Lord of the Lost Ones in all your exploration? There is one in North Grave just south of the Northwind Camp. They are the most powerful characters in the game. I couldn't use melee because he would kill me with one swing. Magic was out because I couldn't throw fireballs fast enough. So I decided it would have to be the bow.
I did find a perch close to the building where they were hiding out and summoned my Oorbaya to pull them out. I did kill the bowman when he just stood still, but the Lord was tough to get out. He finally ran out and across the path and behind a big rock. Every once in a while he would step out and I got a shot with my fire bow. It took a long while but I did kill him. Earlier, I met up with the female version in the Crypt by the Dunville Myrad. She had the greatsword I used the rest of the game.
I've pretty much finished my post game exploring.

I pretty much explored the whole map so I may have come across this guy. I wish I'd finished the game before my computer bit the biscuit. It'll be a while before I can buy a new one -- we just renovated our kitchen and I'll have to save some pennies. EDIT: Wait -- the old girl (my Alienware, not me ) still has some life left in her! Our local tech was not only able to save her, but give her a complete workover. She's been upgraded to Windows 10 and has a new battery. Game on!

I hope my game saves are intact! They should be, but you never know. EDIT: Game saves are intact, but coming back to this game right in the middle of the boss fight after months of not playing is not recommended! My poor archer never makes it past the first of the glowing thingies. I might have to give up.
