Default Discworld 2

What makes this game rot, is the obvious factor of unfinished tasks.
Like:
- you get obvious hints you need to iron the ghost
- obviously established you need to make the boots more attractive for The Stench, that's why you get the dumphill, the River Ankh, a pile of corpses and such in the game. But they later decided against D1-lookalike quest.
- to get the honey you were supposed to get more protection, not get rid of the beekeeper
- not to mention the whole 1stAct was supposed to be choosing the difficulty-setting depending on what you do or do not collect (only sticks and mouse-blood, or glitter+stench too)
- in Act 2 certain puzzles lack indication, like getting the imp, or getting the seurajester (at least she's an original idea for the game)
- also I couldn't find certain entire areas, 'cause crappy game design


And why was I carrying around an undead mouse?
