I finished just now. 14 hours and 13 minutes of fun !
6185 loot (100%) in total and 32/32 secrets. (With some help from TTLL)
Oh boy, I don't recall any other campaing with so many secrets.

OK, i just tried the updated version and the videos both intro and end cutscenes work for me now. I am assuming only the videos were changed, as my saves from the first version also load using this updated one too, excellent! :cheeky:

Thank you so much Gaetane! The intro movie works with this updated version. So I'm sure the ending movie will too. You truly are one of the best mission designers. I hope there will be more missions coming from you in the future. :angel::thumb::):cheeky:

Hallo Gaëtane, I've played your Campaign too and it was fun the most time:
Interesting Story, great leveldesign, especially this lovely little town. I also like the style of the sanctuary, the village and the temple of the frog(is this Arx Fatalis, is it Lara Croft, no it's Thief).
Spooky atmosphere when the third mission begins. I don't know when it was the last time in a game I felt scared, no kidding.-)
Unfortunately(for me) the joy of playing changed when mission five started. To be exact after frobbing the wrong glyph.
This surreal frog world looks great again but I ran in circles, didn't know exacly what to do. Must started again because often this Golem killed me. For me it was a bit to confused ..:p
The end is sad when she dies, I felt sorry for Emilie.
Nevertheless, Chapeau for this campaign:thumb:

I must admit the Black Frog World was my least favourite of mission 5. In hindsight one can get through it. I noticed that the Golem always seem to be alerted by things i did no matter where i was and how far i was from it. Like stepping on noisy surfaces, even at a slow pace or killing the skeletons, the Golem would always appear moments later. Of course all one needs to do is hide, but still it had me on egg shells. I know the readable explains that Emilie can see everything Garrett does and the Golem is probably her will manifested, but still. :D
About the ending:
Also i am surprised Emilie surrendered so easily, she had Garrett trapped and could have killed him, but decides hey the Black Frog and it's personification in the real world i.e. Emilie herself, is too dangerous to exist, lets just die.
I must ask, the Black Frog glyph was not intended to be evil right? It simply gives substance to the darker parts of human beings minds right? That's what i got from the readables. Kinda like Forbidden Planet's "monsters from the id" concept, as opposed to Sauron's One Ring, which was evil and enslaved any being to do it's bidding.

Garrett is trapped, sure, but he has trapped Emilie too. He is about to destroy the glyph (and Emilie too). What could Emilie do? Her last hope could be that the last trap (ceiling trapped) kill Garrett. But does she really wants that?
I don't know if you have read Emilie's journal but i tried to explain a bit more on Emilie and her feeling about her fate.
Emilie is tired by this symbiose between the glyphe and she. She never wanted that and she knows it is impossible to break this link. She is a sort of a prisoner of the glyphe. She knows that the glyphe is an abomination and she would like go far from it. But she can't. So the only thing she can do is to prevent the other people trying to grab the glyph for to use its power.
Garrett don't want to grab the glyphe, he want to destroy it (after his exit from the BF world). This would be the best solution after all? In other hands than those of Emilie, the power of the glyphe could have catastrophic consequences (Belmont is one example). The Keepers themselves didn't see the magnitude of the threat.
Emilie knows she'll can't protect the glyph forever and her die could release the world from the ugly power of the BF glyphe. (Wow! She is really a "great" lady!).
I have perhaps not enough to represent this part of the story, i'm sorry :erm:

Basso71: I know my missions can be very frustrating sometimes :o Yet I try to improve! :rolleyes:
Thank my testers, without them the world black frog would have been even more incomprehensible :cheeky:
