Newbie question
 

A lot of the reviews of Elven Legacy complained that you had to do things too quickly. Or you would lose the scenario.
Is that complaint overblown for this game or its sequels?
I notice the game package is on sale over on Impulse.

It depends on how you play. You can finish a scenario with a bronze, silver or gold medal, depending on how fast you do it. If you try for this in games anyway, then you won't run into any problems. If, however, you want to explore the whole map, look in every corner and take your time, you may find yourself not completing the mission in time.

The pace is brisk, but this does go with the storyline. You have to move and you can't sit around doing little (in terms of the story). It's not as bad as some messages I saw make it sound, though, and it's part of the challenge. It's a strategy title, not an exploration game. :)

this is a wonderful and challengic game.
however, it seems not very popular to players.
what a big pity!!
