I know: that's why it was painful, it takes so long! (And is such boring, cheesy gameplay).

Fixing the still early was even more agonising. At one stage, I had 10 simultaneously geckos on my tail and 9HPs. I don't know what was worse, watching my 16% to hit a golden gecko attacks fail or waiting for the 10 geckos to move. In the end, I invested all my accumulated skill points into unarmed to get it to 99%, as I could not bear it anymore.

I'm starting to think, like froggy, may be this was great in its day, but times have moved on. If I want a blast of a familiar immersive CRPG, I may be better off with System Shock 2 or Vampire Bloodlines.
