  1. Even beating this small distance I manage on my ~10 attempt, bc your ship will constantly take damage in near water, serpent, and harpies.

  1. Ok, somehow you manage to jump over the land from your broken ship - the entire continent will rush you, I have count: 5 melee skeletons, 3 skeleton archers, 3 harpies, 5 "abominations" with a ranged attack, all of them will follow you whatever you go, any rock, any edge, waters and ruins - they will hunt you.

From the very first EA days, I loved that game, forests, swamps and plains gave me a unique exploration experience, it was fun and entertaining. Issues started with the mistlands, stupidly hard every few meters on the ground, the game stopped being fun to explore but ok, you can overcome it with magic, but it is still stupid, bc magic is the only option to play there, you have to, but...fine.

Ashlands...devs just fucking with you, not fun, not entertaining, completely broken user experience.

It was a joy to play 300 hours in this game, but this is the end of it.
