Ooh, so you're at the Oliver chapter, aren't you? Damn that chapter is hard. The reinforcements that teleport in there are simply hell, and the fact that you have to restart the entire chapter almost put me off Radiant Dawn for a while (I actually went away from the game for 2 hours!)
Is there no way you can reset and stop Tormod from dieing? You're gonna miss out on a few awesome "info"s.
When I write Fact: in one part of the post, and opinion: (or a similar word), it's not because I can then say "my opinion can't be wrong". It is to inform what part is pure facts, and which part I try to draw a conclusion in.
