Mod not complete.
Fun to play but does leave you without a real ending. Interesting that the final area requires you to level up substantially before you are allowed to enter! Still, nicely done and some different baddies. Too bad this was never added on to.
Henchmen are not really usable as they just are a babysitting nightmare! I hate that you cannot equip them properly. You really need a proper inventory screen and not just through dialogue! I have yet to see a henchie that doesn't just lose all the gear that they started with, not equipping anything when you tell them you are done managing their stuff! Only a few modules seem to have the right haks to allow for a good relationship with your helpers. Not sure why that is...
I now know that the earliest modules (2002, 2003 etc...) did not have the ability to enable a full henchperson interface. Sorry for all my reviews that called this aspect out for the past few years. A bit naiive I am afraid!
