	And with that You have all Castle Amber and Ravenloft Castle... but there's maps for all the other quests ( as well as text description of what to expect in each and every room ) in the book.

	Cool. Nostalgic to see the drawings for me, though I never played ravenloft.

	I notice the maps in the books are laid out WAY more logically, so that's nice. Fucking HATE the way they did the maps in DDO's version. Practically fucking useless.

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Practically fucking useless. Death House and Sunrise may as well not have maps. DDO always has a problem with multifloor maps, so Castle Ravenloft, Amber Temple, and Oath of Vengeance maps are only about halfway usable. Still, I don't mind Ravenloft for the most part. I happen to believe that Invitation to Dinner is one of the best quests SSG/Turdbine have made in years. Sunrise is pretty fun too. Most of the others - I can take em or leave em, but at least I don't dislike playing them the way I dislike playing some shit like ToEE or Slavers.

Even if from a Frog point of view I'm on the right side of the spectrum. Now since the American spectrum left starts on the right on Marine Le Pen, Anything from The Rassemblement National to Lutte Ouvrière ( Trostkists ) can be considered as socialist. ( and yes that include the remnants of the Socialists and the few crumbling Communists we have left hiding in the bushes. )

Most of the others - I can take em or leave em, but at least I don't dislike playing them the way I dislike playing some shit like ToEE or Slavers. I would like invitation to dinner 100 times more if the map actually worked. That is literally the only caveat and 90% of why I don't run Ravenloft(the other 10% is amber temple). I'm with you on Sunrise - I had to run that one scores of times for gear farming but it wasn't a chore. Slavers is actually laid out in a logical enough fashion that you don't really need a map. Very different from anything in castle ravenloft where you can and WILL walk in circles without guidance. AAH wrote on Jun 2^nd, 2021 at 10:38pm: I'm confused. I thought you were talking about maps, so why the reference to Jerry? You missed the qualifier "practically". If I had been referring to Jerry I would have said "totally"

	I noticed that none of the spiral stairs have vertical ridges along the walls. Who's brightest idea was it to put that shit in DDO? Feels like its there to spite the players who would have preferred an options to glide across the side walls instead of jerking your camera every 1.5 seconds to the right or left...

	ridges are more there to keep folks from being able to kite backwards easily

	If you can roll it you can smoke it.� If you can carve it you can smoke with it.

Early 80s? maybe I was in middle school by my memory the original ravenloft (I6) is from 1983, Ravenloft II (I10) is from 86. Then there was a Ravenloft campaign setting in the 90s ( for ADD2 ). The above maps comes from the book Called Curse of Stradh from 2016.
