I tried a game at the "easier" level, for a change. And quite early on there was a new quest, the Secret Potion quest. I completed the quest, drank the potion and got turned into a smurf. Was that an April Fools joke? Does it have a purpose? I kinda like the new look. Will it fade away?
Are there many differences between the difficulty levels? I noticed when playing at the hardest level one should factor in chewing the food before taking the next bite. (Unfortunately I could not get passed the aliens inside the largest enemy starship, so I eventually gave up that level.)
