R. Should you really be out here kid? These areas are dangerous.

R. I bet you do.

I bet you _can_ is what is natural in this case, not _do_.
I laughed when I saw this in game. I figured it was a joke.
You: I can handle myself.
R. I bet you do. Handle yourself. :lol:

Please don't correct! It is just too funny to remove.
I didn't think that this was a joke but laughed all the same. One would indeed think it was a deliberate joke if the rest of the dialogues were 100% correct but I guess that would take an educated native speaker to go over the dialogues and game texts again.

I was very glad to see that Oskar stuck to his guns about "skulking" not changing to "sulking", since I was reading it a year after the "correction" was proposed. Congratulations to you, Oskar, for knowing the word. Many native English-speakers do not know it, and it is not used very often. It somehow sounds so descriptive of the action that it is really the perfect word to use, besides which "sulking" does not make much sense in that sentence.

I just saw this one in the quest log for "A difference in opinion":

"but Elwel insists that the potion had a green substance"
should instead be
"but Elwel insists that the potion was a green substance"

The Feyguard chap at the Crossroads Guardhouse refers to Alishara as a *fellow* and uses the pronoun *her* in the same breath

This is my first post for your game, so please be gentle ;)

I came across a typo today:

I am fighting a small burrower (in the cave with all the burrowers and cave bats), which has the name "Young posionous cave burrower" (posionous should be poisonous)

Also, rather than "A difference in opinion" it should be "A difference of opinion"

Agreed. I fixed both of these.
