my smart tip for hard mode fight achievments

[flavie]

I've found a tip about getting the "defeat XXX on hard mode" achievments.
As you can change the mode of difficulty anytime during the game,(press ESC) before the start of the boss fight, switch to hard mode and defeat him,

I've a "castle of N'Mar" question. It's an expansion that's to say added content and added achievments? Dos its events have an impact on the story?

Heh, in my newer RPG (SOTW) that trick won't work
Castle of N'Mar adds a whole new zone with many quests and also 2 new romances, probably the hottest of the game and yes it has a big impact on the story as well.

He's not kidding. Volcano breathes fire, definitely the hottest character in the game.

I've recruited Hellhound.
Well I didn't get the achievment cos I defeted Khan the alpha golem in Normal mode and changed to hard mode just before winning. With what I had at this point (level of characters, gear..) I was near from getting the hard mode achievment. I don't have a save of it, I'm in chap 3.
I'll try my best in a second playthrough.
I've went until a fight after a wall, looks it's quite tough.


Do you get one romance achievment per playthrough or can you get one romance achievment and get a next one later in the game, having worked on several romances?
Does a romance achievment bring the game to its end sooner?

As I remember, you can't multi-romance; they'll get jealous and make you pick one. And no it doesn't hasten or slow the main plot.

The real question is though, are you named after a Diablo 2 NPC?

[flavie]

named after a Diablo 2 NPC?" What does it mean? Diablo is a character? Is "NPC" a boss in an RPG?

[Foelhe]

NPC = Non-Player Character, so any game character the player doesn't control. Diablo is a game.

I never played those "recent MMORPG" sth, they are complicated for me. We find it in "Loren", I'm glad it's more simple, cool to manage characters, I love this game.

Well I just had to renounce to Rei or Mesphit romance. I keep saves of some choices for other playthroughs / see what happens.

We can't miss a chance to get romance hearts talking at the camp.

Diablo 2 is neither recent nor an MMO. But meet your name-sister!
