Yeah, you worked at the warehouse, you know. But all these whiny bitches who go to college on their parents' money and then design games have never been inside a real loving warehouse and have no loving clue that in order to move a loving crate, you need to have a goddamn pallet. Hey Monolith, how'd that loving box get in there? They were breakable so people put those suckers between small fixed-position forge objects you can walk through like the little covenant weapon holders or deactivated teleporters to make walls you could break through that could be set to respawn.

Zaodai posted:Can someone sell me on 868-hack? I picked it up super cheap at some point, but I just can't get it. It simultaneously seems very simple and oddly brutal, which usually means I'm missing an obvious mechanic. It also just may not be my style of roguelike. You're right, it's both simple and brutal. I was gonna post tips but these places are where I found the advice that got me through a run, so check these out: http://roguelikedeveloper.blogspot.com/2013/09/tips-for-868-hack-part-one.html http://steamcommunity.com/app/274700/discussions/0/604941528471190918/ (yes i know it's a Steam discussion forum thread but it has good advice)

The big new version of dragonfin soup hasn't quite come out yet IIRC---I want to say it was going to land somewhere in the next few months though.

I don't think there's any downside to better equipment in Rogue, right? Armor and weapons just get stronger. The only thing with a downside is rings costing food to wear.

The only thing I can think of, is that you'll want to change to shittier armor when an Aquator comes around, so it doesn't ruin your best suit.

I have had a few weeks off so I decided to do a bit of work on my Final Fantasy rogue-like. Its mostly inspired by Siralim, except instead of Pokemon it is Final Fantasy. A "bit of work" turned into a complete overhaul. It started off with a randomized battle arena, I just started fighting lots of random battles until I got the balance the way I liked it. Mostly I added a achievement system and a world nexus. The game tracks all kinds of things and if you gain certain achievements you earn Platinum Coins. You can use Platinum Coins to unlock new classes and dungeons and towns. All of the dungeons are infinite and randomly generated, you can just keep going down and they get harder as you go. In fact there are achievements for going quite deep! I think I might have done something right, as I am now often getting addicted to playing my own game when I do testing and get distracted for hours  Its not done yet of course (nothing ever is). I plan to add many more portals over time, and refine a few things here and there. The non-basic classes are also a bit of a mess at the moment!Final Fantasy R V1.00 http://www.mediafire.com/download/k2pfaob7uh79aia/Final+Fantasy+R+V1.00.rar

And are mages still useless out of the box, requiring a bunch of grinding to learn to cast basic spells?

You shouldn't have any trouble getting some elemental attacks going to take out immune enemies, even at the beginning. Learning skills takes 100X less grinding than before. This is the version where I tested it for hours on end and tweaked the numbers.

This bug is really annoying for new players so I'll do a quick fix for it. In the mean time, if you go into the back there are some easy achievements you can do to get a few hundred coins.

How big is the file? Does the game need anything to run? I'm on extremely limited data here, and I'd be downloading it over mobile and transferring it to a laptop with no ability to download runtimes ot may or may not already have. (chilling in a hospital with no wifi)

I think the thief may be bugged. He's hitting from between 3k to 9999 dmg while everyone else does like 500 or less. Only thing I taught him were the 2 agi skills.

Hmm interesting. Its not actually the thief, its the way Daggers calculate damage based on Agility! I'll add that to the list to look into. Of course, in theory nothing is broken unless you can beat the level 9999 eight boss arena challenge

Recently someone mentioned a way to make the transmog chest spit out gems if you have the extraction ability before spitting out gold? Or was that a wish?

You can pay the fortress AI in fort power to make your box convert gear to gems and transmog those gems if you have gem extraction. Any gems you might want to keep you still need to extract manually though.

I hope you get out of the hospital soon, but these folks are just trying to suggest fun games for you to play. If all I had was Tome, I would start working on that novel that I've been kicking around.

I legitimately don't understand how it could be. Even if it had been true, a dude gave a lighthearted name to a roguelike, I FEEL SICK JUST THINKING ABOUT THE LACK OF RESPECT SHOWN TO THE ROGUELIKE GENRE? Do you just hate bros? Recommendation: Save calling things loving disgusting for things that are actually reprehensible.
