The final class is so broken, what the hell. "576 enemies defeated, beat 94% of enemies without taking damage".khrits posted:Grueling maniac done! Those purple dragons hit like a bitch, I could not figure out the secret boss.  Hint to go with the picture: The weapon in that screenshot doesn't actually work for the secret boss (I think?), but if you acquire it, the epilogue essentially tells you how to do it.. Full spoiler: The Holy Weapon "Neith's Holy Bow" fired into the center of the Darkness seems to trigger the fight.. though I haven't beaten it yet.

Bought this game (yesterday), totally addicting. It's like Shiren the Wanderer, in the sense that you can carry over a few items from your last hero to the next one. That way, even if you senselessly die due to bad luck (rare), you can keep that +4 awesome sword for the next run.

Saved the world for real! Got Sara's Epilogue, too.  At least, on Normal. Now to step up my game and maybe try a class that's not God Mode. Maybe Force User, since I got that Meditation +1 item from this clear..thetrin posted:Just got an email from someone who may have already won the contest [to defeat the Secret Boss] we're holding. I probably should not be surprised that it happened already. Going to have to investigate and make sure it's legit. Is that the Darkness? Or is there another secret boss? maketakunai fucked around with this message at 01:18 on Dec 3, 2013 |

nucleicmaxid posted:Is the Playism site down for anyone else? Yeah, it's down at the moment. I just talked to our IT dept, and it looks like reddit basically crashed the site with traffic. One of our other games, Influent, just got a huge insurgence of interest on reddit, and the traffic crashed our server. IT is working on it right now. Sorry guys. I'll definitely let you know when it's back up.

Thanks. quote:The "next time I'll do it without the vault!" victory message spans two options in the menu when you beat the game, and I think picking it or one of them results in a blank message on the "View clear data for other heroes" screen (pic), or at least I've only ever seen the blank message on vault characters. Really though, you guys did a great job on the translation, I love reading the epilogues and death messages I wish the fairy had a ton more questions to ask the player, though.

Force User is actually just as broke as poo poo as Hero once you get it rolling. Also protip do not casually wander into an elf hovel when you have a bounty. Also having a huge bounty does not get you free membership to the dark brotherhood but they just try to kill you like normal NPCs which is similar I guess.

maketakunai posted:If you're looking into cleaning up quirks, here's some I found: Thanks for the pointers, and the kind words! The amount of text is insane (clocking in at roughly 60,000 words). It's been total hell to localize and test the game with just one person doing the majority of it (my coworker, Josh). I helped with the QA at some level, and with editing the script, but it's a LOT for just two people to do, especially when there are so many variables that show up. It was all worth it, though. I'm glad you guys are enjoying the game. We're going to be releasing a new version soon that fixes a few issues, and you'll just need to download the new build from your Playism Account page. zanmatto posted:I cleared the dimension DICKBUTT.

To be honest, it's a little tedious typing in specific Dimension names using the cursor keyboard, so I don't really do anything besides Random. It'd be great if it could support keyboard input like the character name page, but I suppose that'd be up to Wolf to support.

I tried Dickbutt, but I'm also very bad at this game and died. I've started to get the hang of playing Bard, but I've not had any real luck with Adventurer or Force User. I kinda feel like I'm totally missing something with Adventurers, but with Force Users I just usually end up dying to enemies that hit too hard/have too much health to survive against, especially since running away doesn't really work terribly well without consuming an awakening or having dash. Pirate, Swordsman, Knight, etc. aren't too hard for me, though. Also, what's the best setup for an unarmed character? Right now I have four slots, so I was thinking 2 STR and 2 Pro Wrestler? Or should I just go all in on Pro Wrestler or Strength? Miijhal fucked around with this message at 03:56 on Dec 3, 2013 |

I don't have much experience with Force User but I'm pretty sure you'll want to vault in a Staff so you can instacast magic, there's a Holy staff so if you get that then you're probably set for a run. Staves are pretty rare so you can't rely on finding one in a given Dimension. Force Users can also instacast when Awakening is active, or if a strong enemy is headed your way you can stack Meditates and then unleash a high-power fireball on them. They seem to suck up food like a vacuum, with their primary damage output requiring energy.. not too sure what to do about that other than crossing fingers. p.s. Force User is a dumb name, what's wrong with Mage/Wizard/Sorcerer (Forcerer? (okay that's worse)) Miijhal posted:Also, what's the best setup for an unarmed character?

All in Pro-wrestler, in my experience. 1x doesn't mean anything on its own. You want agility or ridiculous crit-rate too, and it works best as a swordsman, because they get a bonus to combo rate and your damage comes from lots of weaker attacks. It takes a little bit to get going for that reason: you need lucky points of agility at level up or the goddess statue, or perhaps a lot of strength is sufficient. Hulkamania runnin' wild. Ed: Note the benefits from +Strength perks can be acquired down the line, but the benefit from Pro-wrestler is basically unique, as far as I know. It makes you quite tough, but you still need to avoid certain fights early on. The Mimic fucked around with this message at 06:04 on Dec 3, 2013 |

Hard clear! This one was a bit of a cheat. I took a semi-common armor and shield from the vault for added protection at the start and I saved once cause I had to take a break to get other stuff done.  Also check out dat stacked plate!

maketakunai posted:Out of curiosity, there aren't any "password"/easter egg dimensions, are there? Like a developer-defined "if you punch in PLAYISM you get the Queen and King by 100km". Keyboard input was actually something we requested from WOLF early on, but he explained that unfortunately, it would completely break the game as its currently built (the naming system used phonetic kana originally, and the input system was designed to avoid glitches when someone typed an incomplete kana. When it was switched to English, it makes less sense to do it that way, but he would have to rebuild certain things to implement keyboard support). It's something I'm sure he'd like to revisit at a later date.

New stuff is up, merc for the early companion. The armor merchant thing sounds underwhelming, and it is, but the actual map has 2 brotherhoods at 300 km and a third brotherhood plus a holy shrine at 500 km.

A Durability Attrition of >100% still won't stop you losing a little durability, but I do mean a little. This thing loses 1 durability every 12 attacks or so: Sturdy Panty's Sword +9 posted:Weight 4, Attack 22 x 1.4 Also, if you keep reading stuff on a level 9+ sword you'll just increase variables already on it.

The pirate damage is really ridiculous. If you find equipment that helps survivability he can really dominate a game.

How does the vault actually work? If I grab something out of it and use it, it's gone right? Is the basic idea to save a good sword, pull it out at the beginning, apply sharpening stones and scrolls to it, and then save it at the end. Repeat until it's awesome?

That's what I've been doing, banking anything else remotely interesting along the way. Getting some 'good but light' equipment in there can really help boost a character, too. And bracelets should always be saved, they're just too good not to cycle through the vault.

I just realized that when you die, you can still put stuff in the vault. That makes everything so much simpler, might as well bring along a few items, just in case. If I get killed 30 seconds in, I can just put them back in the vault.

You don't even need to put the stuff back into the vault, you only need to put the items back if you want to put something else in there too, or if you win the game. If you pick up Your Fave Sword and a bunch of other swag on a new character and die at 50km to a red star doggy or something, you can just leave the result screen after you die and the items in the vault will stay as they were before you started. The items pretty much only change when you put in or swap stuff after a game, or when you win. So you can have fun trying out characters with cool equipment but a godly sword can't carry you through more than a few victories, unless you get lucky with repair scrolls.
