I just beat the German demo! Whoa! Cool!

First, let me congratulate you (Arkane and all involved) for such a cool game. Second, let me congratulate for fixing (nearly ;) all the bugs we complained about, introducing the new features, making it slightly faster. Thank you!

Here are some juiy bits to drool over:

* can crush bones
* rats carry meat (I would have liked a"dead rat" solution more than an inventory, but heh, can't have anything :-)
* physics seem right
* remapping of mousebuttons (see below)

Here is my favourite wa to map the mousebuttons:

Left AND right button to "Aktion" (action)
Middle-button to "Benutzen" (use)
[X] Toggle mouse-view

This way you can:

* right-click on things to get a description (think right-mouse-button context-sensitive menus and you know why people find this intuitive ;)
* if you accidentily left-click, you get the same, nothing bad happens
* drag-and-drop with left (or right) mouse button
* use shift+mb1 or shift+mb2 to pick up things (you get a description of what you picked up, too)
* use middle button to switch between mouse look and mouse use
* you can left-click (or right-click) on the book/inventory to open/close them
* You can enter the fight mode by firsthusing middle button and then theright button
* sneak by press shift

So you can do nearly everthing with right-shift and the mouse, plus the cursors. Which is just ubercool :-)

So, Arkane (especially Raf) - thank you!

I really like this. I almost never click wrong now, as opposed to the original demo, were I got the mouse buttons almost everytime wrong.
