How do you know that? I based my statement on the fact that the whole map that you can view on screen is revealed when you use the skill. How is what you say different? Maybe I'm missing something? Is there a button that shows the whole world map for you?

I agree with SW's comment about identify and repair. Identify has become problematic. Not only might you have to identify that rusty sword once, you may have to do it dozens of times over the course of a game if you continue to collect and sell them. And, if you don't choose a character with the ID skill then you're stuck with the cumbersome process of getting everything id'ed in towns.

The Repair skill is a pain in the butt. I only put one point in and then let shopkeepers repair my stuff after I get out of the theatre. And what's with weapons not taking damage? That doesn't make any sense. BTW Have you noticed that headgear takes far more damage than any other piece of equipment?

The rest times between reuses of these skills is too long. Remind you of anything else? There should at least be an "identify all" button (that works) a "repair all" button, a 'sell all' button that sells all equipment in a category like junk, and which has a "confirm" message that pops up before being executed. Small things like this are not difficult to include. They are take a little time on the developers part.
