Ballsy is in the catacombs beneath the castle. It's a dungeon full of zombies. Maybe you missed it.. the entrance is from the basement of the castle.

mission complete loot= 6835/7215,,,1/3 secrets,,,,,12/12 pockets picked,,,,2 hours 38 min to complete on expert
loved the art/exploration,yes i found dewdrop with healing fruit :)
one question, in factory area there is a mold form holder that highlights, is there a mold anywhere to use it?
a tip for those stuck on masks there is i think 5 in castle in different locations one i think had 3 then 2 other areas with 1 each i think

downwinder: the mold form holder is only for decorative purposes so no, there is no mold for it

loved the layout of the village and the castle exterior. fully expected lots of frame dropping in the big open areas, but i saw little to none.
didnt love the maze-like layout of the sewers, factory, and catacombs (edit: i suppose for the last of these it is thematically appropriate) — kept getting lost and going in circles. (made worse by accidentally picking up a compass early on that replaced the familiar and easy to read star shaped compass with the hard to read small circular one :( )
hated all the semitransparent curtains and windows that let noise go everywhere, and that made it hard for me see through doorways while guards could see me right through them from a long distance away.
the lich death explosion is a bit over the top! it outright killed me from full health, twice, and one of those times the explosion also killed josh and/or ballsy, somehow causing me to fail the "dont kill anyone objective".
anyway, problems aside, a good loot crawl mission with some really great outdoor architecture!

Well, I quit.
I am mostly quite patient with T1 missions albeit I don't like their aesthetics but this looks like mocking:
1) Technically it is T2 FM. But the textures look like they are even worse than those from T1 (Not sure why. Overbright, maybe?).
2) Mazes. Mazey mazes. The only area that I saw that didn't bring any negative was the outside. It was strange and logically unrealistic but at least you can see where you are.
3) Semitransparent curtains in the doorframes. They don't even look like curtains.
4) Navigation is impossible.
5) Rather strange architecture. Those bedroom rooms with huge windows looking into other rooms are... perplexing at least.
Well, I hope your next FM will be more "standard"

Pretty harsh.
There's some genuinely cool looking areas here, but the flow could use some work.
I still haven't finished yet, but I like a lot of the strange architectural choices.

I am going to be sure to dive into this, for what you described it sounds VERY interesting to explore this... regardless of architectural choices I like when its a little bit chaotic in the sense of "The Sword" vibes.
Congratulations and thank you for such a surprise release, I will post my thoughts later once I have played it through, today I just lack that free time to spend 6-8 hours but I will find the time to enjoying this weekend. :)
