List of fate structures?[edit]
Is the list of heaven and hell's fate structures really necessary here? It's really not useful except as a curiosity, it's very long, and it doesn't add much to an encyclopedic article. I think we could do without it. --Chrismith 03:52, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
- I did a rewrite of the article; it's not just a list of the fate structures anymore. I'll try to add a screenshot or two sometime soon, and some more external links would be nice, too, if anyone knows of any. --Chrismith 21:31, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
I have changed Avarice to Greed under the list of sins. It seemed more appropriate to use a more common word...?
- It's specifically and exclusively referred to as "avarice" in the game. Chrismith 13:41, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Windows or DOS or BOTH!?![edit]
I happen to know that this game is DOS game. Did it ship with Windows binaries too? If not then it is not Windows game. It's an dos game which has sertain level of support for working under Windows 95 DOS mode. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dekonegawa (talk • contribs) 16:24, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- The game indeed ships with Win32 binaries. In fact I've justed tested it and it works without any issue I've noticed on Vista x64 without an compatibility settings (albeit it does recommend a colour depth of 8bit/256 colours when you start, I changed the ini and it stopped saying that but whether it made any difference I don't know). The Win32 setup exe doesn't however seem to work. Well it runs fine but it seems to get stuck when you try to install (playing or reading the readme is fine) and compatibility settings didn't help but I didn't try extensively.

- Actually it appears I was a bit too hasty. The tutorial doesn't work properly unless you run in either Win 9x compatibility mode (any Windows NT mode isn't enough, e.g. NT4, 2k, XP, 2k3). The voice stops and the tutorial breaks. Also at maximum speed at least, it appears the game doesn't control the time so on modern processors it's way to fast which is problematic given that maximum speed is used by the tutorials. This is unlikely to be related to the OS of course. See also [1] Nil Einne (talk)
Death Threats vs. George Lucas over the game[edit]
I know it sounds lame, but there were actual threatening letters about this game sent to George Lucas (who didn't participate in design or production at all, but, hey, people assume...) I saw them posted on Michael Stemmle's (the designer) window. Can't find a reference though. Would be worth adding if someone could. Some Turkish Rush Limbaugh wanna be riled up his radio listeners about the game. - Richfife (talk) 05:10, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
