Cool, so you can get the point either way. I was wondering if I'd have still got it had I chosen to go into town for him rather than guard the cart.It had to do with that, but I was the one who had to go to town and fetch a new wheel. Either it was when he fixed the wheel or when the blacksmith was working. Yes, it's rather cool. You must pass an intelligence difficulty check to get the skill point, and that's all.
Those were the kind of things I liked about the demo. I'm just hoping they improve the combat which I feel is average.
