I knew HMM serie since I was six, but today a realization hit me with the strength of a charging elephant - why exactly giving away gold grants you experience? All the game has to tell us about it is :
After scouring the area, you fall upon a hidden treasure cache.
You may take the gold or distribute it to the peasants for experience.
Which one do you choose?
Ok, distribute it to peasants for experience? Do they pickle experience in jars? Do they harvest experience every autumn?
Maybe those are not some peasants, but the Peasants, the mystical order in service of Uugan, the God of memory. Maybe this is some kind of moral lesson we are being taught here - that sharing enriches a man beyond measure. Or maybe our heroes looks at his empty tresure, shakes head and says - you know, maybe I should not give away all my shit in the middle of a war - and bam! psychological maturation new level achieved.
