I think I understand what youre talking about.
The riddles part of it is almost impossible to figure out on your own.
I agree. If I had bought wizardry 8 when it had just came out... there would be no way I would figure out how to drink the potion and eat the flower on the 8th bough of the trynnie tree. 0% chance.
What about just getting the black box to arnika?
Actually I dont think I would have ever even discovered the mook exist without refering to a walkthrough... and without the mook, you are missing one item and can never finish the game so I might never have been able to finish it( I still havent btw)
Never would have figured out what '100% trang item' to bring back to the umpani and would have completed 0 of their quests.
My friend is playing it now and he just walked into martens bluff and killed all the trang. Slam dunk lol. I think he can still finish the game but I do see your point. The puzzles in wiz8 are difficult

The combat I really like the most though. I think its the best in any game ever, its a strategy game. Different strokes for different folks. I think its the only game to try and make strategy combat with a modern 3d engine...
