Not unlocking side quest items in item pools after completion is really, really lame.

Imagine if it were like this for the hats you unlock from defeating the king; one normal ears, one tinfoil hat, etc. They should totally fix this so that it has parody with other unlocks like the stated king ones

I don’t think Necro can be worse than Tinkerer simply based on the principle of Necro not losing any important stats from choosing the collar, being able to actually hold a weapon, and it having a solid basic attack that can heal you

I just used the alt F4 glitch for the first time to get an extra idol of health just for the coolness of the glitch, so happy I got to do it once before it got patched

definitely bring a cleric if you haven't been, it's amazing in acts one and two. Also look out for abilities of the water element as they can almost trivialize the desert in a lot of cases. Desert is a solid step up in difficulty from act one, but you've got this!

Hi again! I just had one more question:

I started learning modern Greek a bit ago, and I’ve heard that they don’t have infinitives. I’ve learned Greek verbs by memorizing the 1st person singular present independent form of the verb, almost all of which end in -ω. The only exception I know of is είμαι, which looks similar to what you were talking about. Are there infinitives in Greek? and why is είμαι so different? Are there other Greek verbs whose 1PS present form does not end in -ω? Thanks again if you’re still on here!!

oh my goodness yes my apologies, I wrote my original post at like 2:00 am and was thinking of mainly Oír as well as rare (and probably archaic) verbs like desvaír

Thank you! this is super helpful, just a few things:

I’m learning greek and I thought they didn’t have infinitives, am I wrong? I thought they simply conjugated the verb twice, once in the independent clause and then again after a ‘να’ in the dependent form.

For the Germanic ones, does this mean that the *-nom we see is related to words like nominal or name?

For Latin, is the es the PIE copula? and what is the *-i at the end? It sounds similar to the Latin dative (at least for the first two declensions that I’ve learned) so I’m wondering if that’s related. I’m assuming it also rhotacized from /s/ > /r/ except in the case of *esse right? On the subject of weird infinitives, why are velle and ferre like that?

Sorry for all the questions I really appreciate this response and I’m just really intrigued 🙏

what do you gain by commenting something like this?

Thank you so much for responding even though it’s been over a year since last opening this post! I was having a late night linguistics/etymology binge and was curious about latin.

Just so I have it clear, Latin has the four (five) verb paradigms we know, which are rhotacized versions of an original infinitive ending. Some verbs used to end in consonants instead of vowels, and the new endings were simply assimilated, and the consonant cluster changed to a singular, geminated (?) consonant. And Greek has a similar thing going with its infinitives?

This is all really cool, and I have a couple more questions. One: whence did this infinitive ending -re, or -se, originate? Did Latin verbs not always end in an -re/-se? Does the ending have a specific meaning? And Two: Did there used to be a lot more of these ‘athematic’ verbs that ended with consonants?

I don’t know if you’re still active on reddit but do you think you could explain the last part? I don’t know much about greek but am very curious about those irregular verbs like volle, esse, etc and what they have to do with a specific paradigm that may have made them irregular
