gongonpunch: Was this game patched in some way in the last year for the gog download? I've played a ton of Sacred Gold over the last 3 or 4 years. I used to have the discs and I purchased on gog early last year i believe. I'm currently in the birth woes of a new battle mage and I can't even gallop from porto bellum back to bellevue without being abso-frickin-lutely zerged by orcs and goblins. This is on bronze, new toon like I said. The beginning of this game has NEVER been difficult for me. A tad boring actually, especially with the dmg output of a starter fire or wind bm. Wtf happened? I haven't done a head count but just running in between porto and that little haven in between it and the starting zone and I am swimming in like 50 baddies. Every time. No rant here, just asking.
