The game is actually quite balanced, much like Wiz 7/8. You can succeed with any reasonable party and there is some overlap of skills and spells such as you find in the Wiz games as well.

Cleve mentioned in the Codex thread that he did not encounter the problems on the Windows 7 machines he uses, so he does have them. What I guess he lacks is experience in programming on Windows 7 or maybe even Windows in general.
He should get someone involved who does have that experience. Then again Cleve does not strike me much as someone who works really wel with others.
100 men pushing one single person in the corner? Certainly this person can hardly keep his polite attitude in such circumstainces. The joke is 17 year old. Isn't it time to talk about the game and what can we do to make it better instead of spending yet another year searching for weak spots in someone's personality?
By the way, is there any site where we can report Grimoire bugs?
…I mean, let's face it, somewhere out there there is a parallel universe almost exactly identical to ours where, at some point in the past decade, one vaguely critical forum-post was made or not made, and now Cleve is proudly holding court amongst his various disciples in the RPGWatch Grimoire MegaThread.
I suppose what I'm saying is; you may scoff and mock and enjoy your sense of internet-tribalist superiority now, folks, but soon enough fortune's wheel will turn again. And then you can have him back.
Same position as mine.
…isn't all this 'Huh, no wonder Cleve's being worshipped on the CODEX, how typical of them, they're not like us smarter-than-your-average bears who post here' stuff more than a little one-eyed, given that the man has shuttlecocked back and forth between both forums over the years, hanging out at one community for a couple of months before taking umbrage at something or other someone said about him or his game and then leaving again with a dramatic and deeply inaccurate vow never to return?

To be fair, that incident took place in Politics & Religion, IIRC? Things that happen there have little to do with the professional relationship between a developer and a games journalist, IMHO. We all venture there at our own risk.
Well unfortunately being "nuts" may help with entertaining and crazy writing, but it's a very bad thing when it comes to writing computer programs. People who are delusional or who have similar disorders also tend to have severely disordered thinking, which is the sort of thing that can severely get in the way when your trying to write complex code or plan out a detailed project. Sadly it usually gets worse and worse with age.
Also, who cares if he's mature? I sure as hell am not.
@Gozioso - Don't you think we can be big enough on RPGWatch not to react to those things? And perhaps to understand where that kind of angst comes from?
I disagree. You developed and released an indie game, responded well to criticism, and demonstrated a commitment to supporting your game. Very professionally, I might add. That sounds mature to me. That's part of the reason why I purchased your game.
People like you…I want to succeed. People like Cleve…not so much.
Oh Cleve, you are so sexy when you talk like that to me…You sound like you have a really rich fantasy life you enjoy with me. Do you have a little doll in your room you call Cleve and have complex discussions with?
If you have any experience programming in Windows at all then you already know such porting problems are common going from 98 to XP and XP to W7/Vista.
Common.
Unless you're one of the sh*thouse lawyers on here who had probably never had a bug in any of his code. Because he works the night shift at Dennys.
