I like making characters in Crawl and seeing how fast I can get them killed.

It's strangely addictive.

Dexters Secret: Jun 19, 2014

dungeons of dredmor is pretty fun at first. the skill system is really well done, lots of fun combinations. but the item system is bad, the crafting system is bad, the trap system is bad, navigating levels is tedious, and the monsters could be better. also why include monsters that can destroy your poo poo in a 'casual' roguelike?

it's a little thing, but I hate that dredmor doesn't have a rest button. the devs justify it with you're just supposed to keep moving but actually it just means optimal play is running back and forth like an idiot while you heal

koolkal: Oct 21, 2008; this thread maybe doesnt have room for 2 green xbox one avs

i didnt like that the skills didnt give u info on what they actually did in dredmor

if u go on the wiki theres tons of stat buffs and poo poo that dont show up

ex:

With this skill you have a chance of sneaking in an extra attack with your dagger during combat that does extra sneaky damage depending on how sneaky you are.
Dmg piercing+1
Stat counter+2

those 2 stat bonuses are just passives, the skill doesnt actually tell u wtf it does

heres the actual skill:

30% chance of inflicting Two Attacks One Dagger! on attack.

Two Attacks One Dagger!
Deals: Dmg piercing 1(+ 0.15 �Stat sneakiness) Dmg crushing (1 � Stat meleepower)

that would be good to know in a loving rougelike

# ? Jan 11, 2015 20:22

Considering that some of those skills were actually broken for a really long while (i.e. scaled off of magic instead of other stats), it would have been cool to know ahead of time. Think there are still a few ones that you need to mod to fix.

Overall really cool skill system. Definitely dislike the crafting system, but it felt kind of mandatory to take at least one (what am I going to do with all this garbage otherwise?)
