DISCLAIMER First I want to clarify that this isn't about cheating, tampering or exploiting the game mechanics so it is within the forum rules. I'm not looking for any bugs or glitches to advance myself. This is merely about testing the limits of the game.
Make something idiot-proof, and life will build a bigger idiot
I have decided that I'm going to try to be that bigger idiot by doing things no normal player would do and maybe even "break" the game because of it. I have already thought of a series of "tests" to see how long it'll take until I manage "break" something.
First test: Killing Adaon
Everybody knows about this annoying thief robbing you at the very start of your journey and slowing down your progress a bit. There is no way to avoid this robbery though... or is there? Adaon can't really rob you when he's dead, can he?
In this test I'll try to kill Adaon by not fighting any creatures on my path in the beginning but letting Adaon handle them. Maybe he'll just get knocked down and recovers afterwards like a companion? Or maybe he'll stay dead and the game will be broken? Let's test it out.
RESULTS: Failure
After trying a few times I managed to send almost the entire horde on Adaon and... he managed to fight them all off alone. He has a surprising lot of health for a rogue and can kill the critters with ease.
David won this round, but I have more "gamebreaking" plans for the future. I'll return!
