This really is Dick Moves: the Game isn't it? All it's missing are old school unavoidable instadeath mechanics.

That roots thing is another quest that feels weirdly MMO-ey to me, like a typical gather quest instead of fetch quest. I completely forgot about the entire tree dungeon, maybe because it was comparatively dull compared to the Underground City and the zones that are coming up right after it. Oh and the Amber Dragon was kind of lame too. Stonekeep did the whole "Dragons in Dungeons" () thing way better; it had a similar first person dungeon crawling setup to it, but The dragon NPC, who was in the dungeon because it was chained and you were supposed to rescue it, was so huge that its body parts would block entire hallways of a dungeon - an arm here, a foot there, its tail and head. Made the thing feel loving massive during a time period where scaling things to size was almost impossible.

hmm that puzzle is pretty head-scratchy. i wonder if it's a matter of weighing them down in sequence and then letting up some of the earlier ones or something? that would be my only guess. it kind of seemed like your magic levels stayed more competitive when you were just spamming heal versus skulling everyone left or right, but that just might have been more the ratio of enemies you were fighting versus the amount of spells you were casting since some of these later ones have way more guys.

It's driving me crazy, you keep calling those water jet traps "fires". I wasn't 100% sure until I saw them trigger in the start of this video as a rain effect.

You're on the right track! Also you may be right about the magic. Healing's even more mana / xp efficient now that we have the stick. I might decide to face tank some enemies in the next area for a bit to see how things go. Melaneus posted:It's driving me crazy, you keep calling those water jet traps "fires". Ohhhhhhhhh. I forgot about that spell. That makes me wonder what the other fire spell we have is.

I'm quite enjoying your LP, good work so far. You're very diligent and whatnot and I wanted to let you know it's appreciated. I tried this game a long time ago, but it triggered the hell out of my OCD, so I gave up before I got to any good part. It's proving to be quite a gem.

Melaneus posted:It's driving me crazy, you keep calling those water jet traps "fires". I think those actually are fires, from the spell "Unholy Conflagration". The manual says "blue-hued flames erupt from the floor. Burning in place, these inflict damage". I don't think there are any water traps. Most of the dickishly placed traps in this game are spells that the player can cast him/herself. Too bad you can't learn and cast the Giant Boulder of Fuckyou on enemies.

It might also be Fountain of Scorching Vapors. I'll try to remember to cast the Unholy Conflagration spell next episode so we can all see for sure.

That loving hand Also yeah, those monkey guys are always tough but they seem to be hitting you extra hard. Maybe you're underleveled for the area and the game wants you to do Temple of the Moon first? I don't remember how scaling works in this game. The baboon guys have sad lore by the way, they are apparently nice guys but work for the Warlord because if they don't he'll kill their king

I love the art in the Temple of the Moon. It's full of pretty sculptures and unique art assets and JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE gently caress IS THAT Seriously, I get the vibe that the artist of this game really wanted to design for a horror game instead of an RPG.

This game has some of the weirdest and best monsters I've ever seen in a dungeon crawler, and I like how it runs the full spectrum too. You've got badass barbarians as the first enemy you fight, snakes with fists for heads wielding daggers, undead pirates, golems made of blood, dragons, weird jesters that juggle and throw skulls at you, angry giant baboons, and whatever the gently caress those things in the Temple of the Moon are. Can't wait to see whatever weird rear end creatures this game throws at rojo next. Not to mention most of them have cool death animations! My favorites are the sword guys getting their flesh burned off leaving only bones behind and the dragons loving EXPLODING when killed. That's metal as gently caress. wafflemoose fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Nov 10, 2015 |

Those owl guys are called Minervan Harpies. Also holy poo poo, I don't know if it's because your spear is really outdated or if bashing is better but the damage difference seems to be night and day. I hope you find an updated spear soon so those points don't go to waste

Missed a little chunk of the Moon Temple at 1:30 or so on episode 44, I'm sure it's just some random stuff though. This LP is super chill to do other stuff with it playing, enjoying it.
