Anthrophobia

Hey,

This is my first post in this forum, hope I'm a stayer

Anyway, I just wanted to point out a couple of things about Planar Sphere Mod. Before I start making critiques, let me say first that I really, really enjoyed it. Especially when the characters started making references to the real world(a demon saying to get it over with b/c he had to do community service, what a laugh).

However, I noticed some bugs(or just my personal opinions) that could be improved on.

Note first that I have Unfinished Business installed and that's the only mod I have so far.
1) At the council of six building during the main quest, the boss only dropped scrolls, and did not drop the key, which made me stuck in the building. I had to use shadowkeeper to get it.
2) Is it just me or is the boss(the one in the council of six, not the sorceror) WAY too hard? I tried him on medium and the guy just blew up my party in a snap, that is considering if I even get past the knights, the harpy, and the globes. After trying a million times and not even coming close to winning, I decided I'm tired of getting my butt wiped and ctrl-Yed my way outta there.   Maybe I should have leveled my party up more(they were at lvl 15 on avg). The cowled wizard at the Promenade Inn was pretty hard too, with their combined comet attacks, and because I can't make much of a fight back because of so many non-enemy characters in the way(no horrid wilting and the like) it's pretty hard to do anything. Of course, it could just be due to that my game has a bug that let's me use dragon's breath, but the spell does nothing, no damage, no buffet, nada. Except the special effect of having a dragon's head appearing.
3) After defeating the Sorceror(which was hard too, but the readme warned me about it) and talking to Belle, I'm assuming Belle was supposed to teleport into the map room, since she said that if I want to talk to her she'll be studying that "map" I have. Problem is I couldn't find her there, or anywhere. So I just cheated and used "createCreature". Lucky me that I guessed Belle would have the code "psBelle" on the first try. I'm no modder, but I believe a easy way to solve this is to just have two Belle characters who look identical and both named "Belle" with different character codes. One of them would be in the map room and the other would be the one that talks to you and then teleports away. That way wouldn't it reduce the chance of Belle not appearing?
4) This isn't much of a big deal of a bug, but I usually tend to keep the Guardian Golem at the entrance of the planar sphere since that's where all the enemies pop up. However once the academy got started the Guardian Golem disappeared. It reappeared later when I finished the main quest.

And the rest isn't really "bugs" but things I noticed that weren't done yet.

5) The Professor and his assistant were trying to open a portal, but apparently it killed the assistant. And then the dialogue popped out saying that BOTH the professor and the assistant "died", but the professor was still there. It then states that the next version will contain the professor/assistant quest, in which we found out their ultimate fate.
6) I made Teos apologize to Belle, and when Belle decided to fry his butt anyways I told her to put a lid over it. She then told me that she would if I do her a "favor". I don't know what this "favor" is, but I'm assuming it's a sexual one   , since she said she "likes a man who's in charge". But when I talked to her I got the dialogue that this part wasn't done yet. Problem is that now everytime I talk to her I get that dialgue instead of "I haven't recieved any orders from above yet". So does that mean she can't give me any quests later on?

But overall, besides the bugs, this is very enjoyable, with the jokes in between.
