    Why everyone keeps forgetting mimics?

    Oh yes, I did not forget the mimics. They do not try to kill you, they just want to give you a hug... with their mouth.. because they are hungry and believe you taste good with ketchup! :)

    I for one like the idea of interacting with objects in the world... The more the better..... would be nice if we got a surprise from them though... like if i break a barrel, i might get some wood from it.... or if i break jars, i might get some food or potions from it..... or if i open closets or drawers in INNS only, i might find some neat wardrobes, for men and woman, depending on the room i sneak into..... some jewelry from the night stands etc .... I would like to be able to sit on any tree stumps in the woods, after all woods have stumps from trees that erode in time, when it snows, i want to make snow balls to throw at peeps walking by hehehehe, or make a snowman for my yard, hope we get weather. I want to be able to climb a tree, and sit on its branch, i want to pick shells from the ocean with the possibility of finding a really awesome one, but also rare ones that are larger in scale , that can not be sold , but can be placed in my home. when we get fishing, i want to be able to mount my biggest catch for my house. I want to pick stones in forests etc and be able to throw them at the critters hehehe or what ever .... so on and so forth ... Stealing though should always carry a penalty for doing so.... An animation for climbing would be nice....

    I think one way to give feedback on what the oracle has observed would be the more violent? you is the more likely you is to smash open a container
    the less violent then the more likely you would be to open the container instead

    If I've had a bad day, sometimes I'll go and bash some crates., and it'll make me feel better. I'm philosophical about it, like Socrates was about Sotacrates. :eek:

    Breakable crates & barrels is the Ultima way, it goes all the way back to the old school days of Ultima Forever or U4E as the kids liked to call it.
