sorry....the quest involving victor misk and the book "curse of t'sern ang" (i think that's the title)...no im not patched....but after re-loading about half a dozen times i managed to get him to appear ....phew...
If you're able to finish the game unpatched, then good for you, but most people get crazy errors that usually end up with them needing to delete their file. The 1074 patch makes the game run like it should, without alot of cracked out problems that end up fucking up your save. Amato. No one fucking cares.
Sometimes if you cause Kendrick to move across the room at an earlier stage in the game he won't move back and when he dies he is actually closer to the door and out of sight due to the graphic of the front wall being in your way.
When I bought the game when it first came out, there was no patch. However, I didn't start having problems with it until about the tenth time I played it. I think it was just my computer fucking up though. The whole time I've had the game, it has only messed up once, I just erased it off the system and reinstalled it. Luckly I found the patch(the older one) and it never happened again.
Strange tthing is end the game when you join the big bad guy.....you don't killl the hole damm world...which would be very interesting..
