Love how his rapsheet is just two pages of him being an angry rear end in a top hat about the smallest issues, all the time. Someone needs to go to anger management classes.

IronicDongz posted:why on earth would you care so much about the stupid precog exploit. isn't the point of getting new mutations that they're very random See precog was the baby that got thrown out but lets take a look at the bathwater we're supposed to be drinking. You build a character, four arms, phase, sleepy gas and spinarettes, really good. Fun guy. You ghost around sleeping people and stabbing them. Its fun. But it could be more fun. So you save up your cash and you wander down to the circus to visit the Mutation Clown. You hand him four hundred dollars and suddenly he snaps one of those dog control leashes around your loving neck, you scream and thrash but he dosn't let go... eventually you calm down and he fans his cards, "CHOOSE" he bellows in a shrieking voice, "Can't I just get paralytic stinger?? Its the only one I really want" you cry but he simply wails "CHOOSE" so you choose three cards, "Erectile dysfunction, glue womb and beeteeth" reads your selection as you stare, sweating. "What'd you get?" Asks the clown... you can't show him these, "Nothing. Uh, can I go... please" "No pal, you paid up! Show me what you got??" But you can't show him. None of this is fun. This would ruin your fun... You spent so long getting this far, your only crime was wanting novelty and now you are trapped. Trapped by the clown.

I did LOL at "Erectile dysfunction, glue womb and beeteeth", that's some creative hyperbole at least! I haven't played in quite a while but I'm planning to soon with the big tomb release. I know they added some procedural generated book of sonnets a while ago iirc, is there a place I would go to find that specifically other than a bookseller?

New Mental Defect idea: Belligerent. You have a small chance when talking to someone to go on an explosive tirade, decreasing your faction rep with whoever you’re talking to, and maybe any faction that loves them. Edit: love the new music BTW, I'm excited to check out the new content but I'm very, very bad at this game so it'll probably be a while.

Xik posted:Maybe if unormal didn't nerf precog we could have seen this coming god drat  So I've been loving around with various classes and I still feel like True Kin just don't measure up to the sheer power of mutations, partly because cyberbux are fairly scarce early on, and across several Kin mans I had more implants than I could install (and not by a little, by like, a lot). Stronger injectors ain't nothing, and their start is definitely solid, but iunno, I've felt weaker on every TK I've played. Can anyone point me to the true power of the arcologies that I'm missing?

DisDisDis posted:the real strong thing about short blades (strength is an infinite dump stat and you get tons of dv) is still strong it's just less accessible to new/less tryhard players because you need to know how to handle yourself til you get a vibroblade (and i guess this playstyle is really more about being a defensive stance longblade user who picks up the vibrokhopesh than about shortblades now) what was busted about short blades is there used to be a skill that let you substitute agility for strength in penetration rolls. it wasn't necessarily the single most broken thing in the game, but it was the easiest and most passive. you just went all-in on agility and spent the rest of the game with max penetration and only getting hit on a natural 20 vibroblades are great and all but they're a "when you've already mostly won the game you can sub these in for slightly better results against hard targets" e: a good way to put it is that an agility-focused build still works, more or less, it's just that now you actually have to pay your dues for it  victrix posted:Can anyone point me to the true power of the arcologies that I'm missing? You're not missing anything. Mutants are just stronger. (As long as you're making at least a modestly informed attempt to optimize and not picking mutations at random or something).

victrix posted:Can anyone point me to the true power of the arcologies that I'm missing? True Kin really just trades the absolutely busted potential of a Mutant in favor of a much easier early game (in the sense that you can play sloppy and come out alive, obviously Freezing Hands+Teleport trivializes everything if you have the patience). Also you can put skillpoints in QOL stuff earlier because of the extra attributes and skill points, and personally getting lost over and over and over again drives me completely loving insane, so being able to afford Mind's Compass without feeling like I'm missing out on something important is a big deal. I like TK but they're basically on par with medium-effort Mutant builds. Dachshundofdoom fucked around with this message at 10:52 on Jul 22, 2020 |

This is probably a Thing that should happen for the procgen villages, because yeah, this is the shittiest part about a random start. Just highlight the two main quest givers or whatever, bonus if the warden and stilt dude start near you every time. quote:Oh and while I'm on the topic of True Kin, the character creation screen for True Kin is no longer telling you what cybernetics actually mechanically do, so I assume that's a personal attack on me and I'll be drafting my 2000 word rant shortly.  Just as a general rule, I can't decide if I should bother posting giant (feedback) screeds or not, since they're so focused on pushing to 1.0 release, it feels like little niggles are either already in the queue to fix, or won't be priority to touch until later anyway. That goes double for ~balance~ feedback, since so many totally broken things are still around after years, so I kinda get the impression that isn't really a concern at all either until post Real Release, or like, at all ever. Maybe I'll just stick to stuff that really annoys the piss out of me (permanently paralyzed by sleep gas is a fun one). Oh, here's a big one - I'd really like to see a ui 'quick menu' of some sort that lets me assign specific commands to a shortlist. So one button pops up the quick menu, then another press activates <whatever> Like 'target this wall and auto attack it until broken', 'drop this bedroll', 'clean my gear with water', 'show me salves only', 'show me grenades only', 'swap these two weapons', and so on. I find there are a handful of inventory actions I take repeatedly over the course of a game that are just kind of annoying with the default inventory ui, and a few edge case commands that aren't covered by any default commands elegantly.
