[rant]Ok, this just drove me nuts. (beware, ending spoiler!)[SPOILER]I don't get to wreak venegance on the hag, and avenge Lauryl's death. I did the museum, bashed some statues, put some artifacts around the place and for what?!?!! No killing Gamall? Nothing!?!!? No righteous venegance...oh come on! Fine then. Be like that. Give me Lauryl then!!!! Grrr...didn't get to right the most depressing part of the story...big whoop I'm a keeper. Does that bring Lauryl back or allow me to go into a vicious frenzy on Gamall? No. Even that thief apprentice kid could've have been Lauryl or something. Then again, I'm not sure many people aren't scared of Lauryl, the shadow isn't creepy...What are you scared of more? An innocent child who was viciously murdered by some freaking wierdarse keeper or an undead mental psycho with metal cages on his fists and head charging towards you at high speed? [/SPOILER] [/rant]
Anyone else feel this way? :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
P.S. GGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

If you reeeeeeaaaaaaaly wanted to....
[SPOILER]You CAN kill Gamall but you don't get anything out of it. It just takes a well-placed oil flask and she'll slip n' slide. Presto, she's fallen and she can't get up.[/SPOILER]

You kill Gamall the same way you killed the enemies of the previous 2 games - you set a trap. You don't kill the Trickster or Karras directly.

I, too, felt the same helpless anger when I discovered that I couldn't take revenge on Gamal or right the wrong that had been done to Lauryl. But, after ranting & raving to my cats (my husband ran out of the room with his hands over his ears), I realized that the end of DS pretty much imitated life in that life is not fair sometimes.
So I burned the TDS disk, smashed my PC, chased my cats under the sofa took a deep breath and started playing an FM and felt much better almost immediately.
It still ticks me off, though.
A lot.

I didn't feel that way. I was perfectly happy with the way Gamall was defeated. Garrett stripped her of all her powers, broke down all her grand plans that she'd spent lifetimes making. Then, rather then go and stab her to death, he showed he didn't believe it to even be worth the effort. He just slowly backed into the shadows and watched as The Keepers took their revenge on Gamall.

Lauryl was on a much more personal level for me...

The best way to hurt someone is to take away the thing they value the most. Gamall valued the power that the glyphs gave her. Garrett took it all away from her.

Pffttt....I still didn't get to kill her...or put her in endless torture. Hell, if even I was shown in the cutscene her being put in endless torture, I'd be happy.
Lauryl is one of the only characters in the game that actually feels real, and to miss the chance of an eye for an eye or (this would be way to gruesome but) [SPOILER]gamall[/SPOILER] being flayed...slowly...

I felt perfectly satisfied watching her transform into that weak old lady and have all her dreams and plans crushed by a "weak" mortal.

Lauryl isnt your destiny for revenge, thats poor old Drept's. He was totally obsessed with giving her justice, so I would have left it to him to find a way to destroy the Cradle, and truly end the suffering. And after you destroying the inmates, he only just has to set a few of the good ol' hammerite explosives!
Perhaps the suffering of the Cradle, and the reason it remembers is because people remember the suffering that it caused. So in reality, as soon as people forget the Cradle, it would end. Well, its not exactly easy to forget... Hold on, Im starting to go into rant mode.... {/rant}
