Temple of Elemental Evil (off-topic)

[Greg Neumann]

Make SURE you patch TOEE! It's damn near unplayable in the unpatched 
state. It was so bad that a bunch of hackers released their own patch 
before Atari got around to it. There's a sorry story to go along w/ 
that, but suffice it to say that Atari deserves to be ripped off for the 
way development and relese was handled! Also, look for the hack to boost 
the player stats to 18's, when you want. It's pretty sweet playing the 
game solo, and hacked character makes it doable! The party handling was 
very fun, but the experience payout system was flawed, so that at the 
deeper levels you were always hopelessly outclassed ... sending lvl 5-6 
party against multiple enemies that are assuming the party is lvl 9-10. 
Another Atari mismanagement problem.
And yes, I am one of those w/ Windows machines around for game playing. 
Damn DirectX!!
