Is DQB basically Minecraft but not incredibly ugly?

Looper posted:Is DQB basically Minecraft but not incredibly ugly? It's basically minecraft with a story, quests, things to actually, building things that provide tangible benefits, etc. For example, if you put a cookfire and a chest in a room, that's called building a kitchen, and NPC will cook food for you there. So basically building rooms causes passive generation of items for you to use. And all kinds of other features. It's like what if minecraft was a game instead of a sandbox. It's neat.

So it's basically just taking management style game rules and implying them to Minecraft! That is really neat and cool.

precision posted:dq builders is completely cool and good That is crazy. By the time I finished up my first base, it was really basic compared to that, just a square fortress with each room facing inward. This is inspiring me to do like a tree house thing for my next base.

I'm not very far but I messed around a little with a second floor for the forge/blacksmith room but I didn't seem to get points for anything I put in the second floor (my stairs were inside the room though, not outside like that screenshot) Also the camera made it impossible to see anything when you were in the first floor but I have the ability to make glass now so maybe that's not a problem if you make some windows or something It's a super fun game though. I never could get into Minecraft/Terraria but I love this

Why would you not invert it always, if you're going to do it for some? As soon as I use a controller making sure it's properly inverted is the first thing I do.

Just make sure to put rooms you never visit on lower floors, like npc bedrooms Ideally they would have done an xray type thing through roofs but they didnt.

If I'm controlling something like a viewpoint it needs to be inverted, if I'm moving a sight or cursor around on a screen it needs to not be.

HMS Boromir posted:Not being a moon person, I don't use inverted controls, but most games tend to foist inverted flight controls on you by default so it makes sense to have an option to invert just those. I'm not sure why you'd want different settings for person and tank or plane and bird but it's nice to include them. Plane games have just traditionally been that way because you pull up on a throttle. They tried doing other controls in later Ace Combat games but they always felt like crap to me. I don't remember ever noticing that was weird until I heard a bunch of people complaining about the flight school missions in San Andreas back in the day. HMS Boromir posted:To this day I don't know which horizontal camera setting is "normal" and which is "inverted" and I'm not sure it's even consistent across games. Which one is the one where when you move the stick/mouse right you look to the right? Going back to old PS2 games, they're not consistent at all until like the 360. I think no one knew what should be normal until then.

Which one is the one where when you move the stick/mouse right you look to the right? In the n64/psx era the idea was you were moving the camera, so left would move the camera to your character's left and your view would turn to the right. Now that 3rd person shooters are a thing, the correct controls are flipped where pushing right turns the camera right. It was pretty inconsistent last generation, where some 3rd person games that didn't have shooting mechanics would have the horizontal camera turning the wrong direction.

If anyone in this thread has like a 4-year-old please mess up your kid real bad by giving them only plane games with non-inverted Y axis controls and report back.

Right. Any camera angle must be inverted. I don't know why, I absolutely cannot play anything without Y axis inversion. It's baffling. It's not just that I'm not very good at it -- I'm completely disabled. My brain does not adhere to it. First person shooters on a console without Y inversion involve me staring at the ground or the sky the whole time.

Andrast posted:The D&D license was stuck inside the dying shell of Atari when it was relevant so it never got games. I don't know much about D&D, I've never done the table top poo poo. What's the difference between that and AD&D? Because there were a shitload of those games in the '80s / early '90s and they were all awesome to 10 year old me.

Advance was basically a rework of the rules and added some more classes and poo poo. Early d&d gets confusing with all the different boxes and poo poo.

Snak posted:wanted to share some shots of my DQB chapter 1 base. Man that's so much more elaborate than mine. I feel like I should've planned better because I've just been making it up as I go along and the area they give you is honestly pretty small. Doing a couple of quests for monsters got me some cool blueprints for a hothouse and a little restaurant type building but I have no space for either One thing I would say if you didn't know is that putting the three teleporters in a room with a light source is a 'Triple Teleportarium'

I give everyone their own room out of principle. I haven't discovered hothouse or cafe yet. Also I think having a private room makes your citizen more productive.
