    (Portralis)I can't advance after level 2

    So, I got myself interested into Portralis due to the deep class fusing system, as well as the RPG elements that came with it.

    I created a character, which I plan to go for a shadowmancer assassin with time travelling powers (because why not), and I stepped into the world. Everything went smoothly up until I got to the point when I got into level 2, that's when things just got stuck.

    I can't gain any more experience, and thus I can't literally fight with virtually anyone except rats of all things. Even after how many rats I kill, I can't gain any more experience.

    I have already placed in the levels in both the base stats as well as the skills, and I have learned all the new abilities. I am completely at a loss as to what went wrong here.

    Does anybody got an idea as to a way to fix this? Seriously, I like this game, but that bug just bugged me off. (Pardon the pun)

      Well, I think I found a fix for it, it's apparently a compatibility issue. A simple switch to compatibility mode to windows 7 will do.

          Woah.

          Is Portralis still a thing, or are you just now discovering it?

          I remember playing it years ago, and it was indeed in interesting and unique variant, but I thought the developer had abandoned it long ago.

          I'm glad you solved the issue you were experiencing - and now I'm off to check out the Portralis forums and see if it's back.

              I might have played Portralis about 200 years ago. Provide me a link.

                  As I recall, it was easy to get a massive damage output, and also easy to find foes with damage reflection in Portalis.

                          It compiles and creates 8 terminal screens. I can't exit the introduction screen with Esc.

                              Portralis doesn't look familiar to me.
