What I would like to see in U9:

1) From reading these messages, it seems that most people are for a 
highly complex combat/talking system. I thought that U7 & 8 got it right, 
and I definetely want to use my mouse to do all of the above. U8 combat 
was a bit rough, but with the reintroduction of a party, it should be 
great. I do not want to have to use the keyboard to talk, and combat 
should be as quick and easy as can be, since it is after all not the most 
important aspect of the game.
2) Since U9 will be on a CD, it must be FULL!! By that I mean that we 
want lots of interaction with people, places and objects. I want to be 
able to have a job in a bakery, go sailing, fishing, flying, ie:I should 
be able to spend a week in a city looking around without being killed by 
a ghoul or a pack of kids (U8) while guards are hanging around and going 
about their everyday buisiness. I want a huge world, with lots of places 
to see (more like U7). When I started U8, I was very dissapointed to find 
that I could only become a Necromencer, and when I decided to walk 
around, there was nowhere for me to go as any creature would kill me in 2 
moves.
3) Full speech would be great, as long as I can understand what people 
are saying.
4) U8 had great graphics, and I am sure that U9 will be even better, but 
please, make sure i can recover an object behind a wall or something. The 
idea of a transparent wall hotkey seems like a good idea for this.
5)Locating objects like reagents in your bag MUST be made simpler and 
other people have also made good sugestions to that effect.ie: when I 
pick up some reagents, they should pile up in my bag and not be all over 
the place.
6)The top view or angled top view from U8 was fine, and I do not want a 
Doom like UW like front on view. It gives me headaches, and you cant see 
enough of what I am hoping will be a huge and beautiful world.
7) The atmosphere in U8 was morbid all along, with foes at every corner, 
and frankly, that sux. I want more happy people around, happy cities and 
pubs wher you feel like sitting down and having a beer with your mates.
More pubs, Casinos, whorehouses, Markets and the like make a hard days 
work really pleasant and were some of the great features of U7. So I want 
them back!!!

	In conclusion, I hope you take notice of the various comments 
made by everyone and relise that we want a large world with many things 
to do. We dont want to have to become a Necromencer to become an airman 
to become a fireman to become a... to become a...etc... If you've played 
U8 you get the picture. We want freedom (to a certain limit to complete 
the given task of course) to walk around, talk to people, visit places, 
in the order we decide to approach things. And please no jumpig on moving 
dissapearing platforms and limit the lever puzzles as they are not 
challenging and sitting for 3 hours in front of my screen saving, dying 
and loading really sux. You should be able to complete the game having 
died very few times (in U8 I must have died over 200 times!!!!!).
There's more I'd like to request, but I'm sure that reading all of those 
messages should direct you on the right path.
