WTF do you mean "Yuck". That's what System Shock 2 used and it was great.

When you start the game you get the option to play traditional or the oddity system. The designer intended the game to be played using the oddity system. People who tried both claim that the oddity is better than the traditional XP system. I'm using the oddity system and have no complaints, it gives a very nice progression. Enemies drop oddities too if that's what you are wondering.

It's not 3D obviously but it has a lot of detail and ways to do stuff. Not as much as Age of Decadence though. Also combat can be pretty punishing but since I play a Not Wizard I sort of just brutally kill everyone almost instantly unless they are a robot. It seems like its possible in a few spots to talk your way/sneak your way out of stuff but I haven't figured out how.

The map thing sucks but the levels are well designed so it's easy to remember where everything is in relation to eachother. IMO>

I bought this game when it was in one of those bundles and the version was 0.1.x or so, but saw that it was released.
I just did the training mission that it has now and I messed up on the stealth part.
Did I miss something or is there no LOS cones for stealth mode?

Has anyone else played this game yet, or maybe been interested in it. It's yet another oldschool isometric RPG like Age of Decadence or Fallout. It's an actual 2D game so it's much more like Fallout or the new Shadowrun games. Graphically it's pretty decent. Higher resolution than fallout but still not super detailed or anything.

It's a post-apocalyptic game where all (known) survivors are living in this huge metro system/cave system called Underrail. It has psionics and personal force fields and cyborgs and mutant insects and poo poo. I beat the first quest so far which had a bunch of alternate routes and secrets to explore and stuff so if the rest of the game is even half as decent as the first area then it's a good rear end game. IDK how long it is or if there's even a main quest yet.

The graphics remind me a lot of X-Com Apocalypse, especially this explosion:

There are no LoS cones. But, when you stealth, you are invisible. If you bump into someone you leave stealth and roll for initiative. While stealthed, anyone who's Perception range you are within has a green eye above them. It will fill if you are close enough that they can eventually detect you, then it will turn yellow and fill again. Once it hits red they know where you are and you don't count as stealthed to that target. You can leave stealth directly into combat but you will have no movement points and I think slightly reduced AP? Not sure.

IF this is a serious post, a blobber is a game like Wizardry or Might and Magic where everyone moves together one tile at a time. The graphics in the very early wizardrys looked like a green or white on black wireframe representation of a hallways as seen from first person.

This has been your over 30 gamer post for the day.
