dis astranagant posted:is there any reasonable progress in alterhistorian once you get to steam engine? seems like the only thing left to do is the essence purifier but rounding up hundreds of energy 10 at a time is some bullshit. buying a steam engine should unlock the pulverizer for purchase, which is the next big step and if you're not already, you should be using input mergers as storage so you dont have to sit around with poo poo on your cursor waiting for bars to fill

I've been playing Ngu Idle for 650 days now, I'm in late Sadistic, I've maxxed Energy and Magic caps, beaten all the bosses in the boss mode, and just finished all of the hacks. Looking at what the last (?) titan requires for the later forms and the last (?) adventure zone require, should I just be dumping all of my experience into adventure stats? I'm probably about a month from finishing all of the wishes, too, and I don't see any way to bump those adventure stats other than better equipment and metric fucktons of experience.

Looks like I should at least have some idea how to get iron by now (got a bunch of lava made and some upgrades from it and essence) but I'm not seeing anything.

You should definitely be dumping into adventure stats. You'll spend a decent amount of exp on them. And if you're already near to collecting all the other parts, then it's just pumping the stats from rebirths and exp into power/toughness. You may need a little into regen, but also perhaps not. It'll be fairly clear if you do.

also I was being dumb, you want to right click on the input number. e: oh, left clicking also works. was right clicking because I was also right clicking to grab everything out of an output at once. dis astranagant fucked around with this message at 13:10 on Aug 6, 2022 |

Looking like a speedrunner compared to me. I just recently finished around the 1450 day mark...but that's what happens when you forget about something for weeks at a time. More pertinently, yes, my experience is that adventure stats will probably be your final exp sink. You won't have many other productive uses for experience at that point, as you've noticed.

Right clicking has been removing them fine for me, but there have also been times where I didn't understand what was happening and invisible pipes could explain that.

Enjoyed Alterhistorian. Tip: If you're stone-locked, it's definitely worth building up the 810 energy to upgrade it instead of continuing transmuting, i wasted a bunch of time on that.

yeah, getting your stone and water maxed out shortly after you get steam engines online is a very good idea. since it took me ages to blunder into this: the ending is triggered by holding ~.2-.3 of the product of the obvious endgame building on your cursor

Ichabod Sexbeast posted:If the Alkahistorian series scratched a specific itch for you and you've been looking for more, or you just enjoy spinning different resource plates, maybe The Altahistorian's Conquest is for you? Looks like Altahistorian was one of the entries to the Summer Incremental Game Jam on itch. https://itch.io/jam/summer-incremental-game-jam-2022/entries As for Clicker Ultimate, I've hit the prestige/colony option on it and the game just gives no indication on if there is any more content really, or just a couple rounds of prestige-ing. Also having 'colonies' be your prestige mechanic is incredibly silly when you're dumped right back into the pre-stone age. That said, I'm not a huge fan of incremental games like this where all progress just stops the moment you've idled for a bit, because the resource stockpiles max out and nothing happens. Always prefer it when there's atleast -something- that keeps on ticking and working. Be it an automation thing, autobuying certain things, or just a mechanic where 'wasted' resources do something useful. SubNat fucked around with this message at 12:07 on Aug 7, 2022 |

I think I broke something on Alterhistorian's Conquest, I got the Steam Engine but don't seem to actually have a way to make Steam, and none of the upgrades on the other buildings say anything about making steam either.

They don't need an upgrade. And for the future one of the buttons on the left side of the machines tells you all the possible inputs so you don't have to guess.

Cultura just dropped recently as a fun little animal racing/breeding game: https://talaxi.github.io/Cultura/ I've been enjoying myself quite a bit with it, though it's probably worth mentioning the economy is pretty harsh. With your free coins you probably wanna make sure you get at least a barn for each animal type and the auto-breeder or else you'll struggle a bit. Dev's working on it quite a bit, and seems pretty open to feedback just judging from the reddit thread.

Immortality questions: Are followers just mostly useless? I just unlocked them and the only ones that seem helpful at all are the Hunter and the Scout. The hunter brings in enough meat to give you ~10k stamina before he leaves and the scout lets you just rake in gems but they're both random so you can't really rely on getting one over the useless dudes. Is tossing Commune with Divinity/Meditation in the projection slot as powerful as it seems? Spend 5 mana every day to get 10 mana+hundreds of stamina/hp/spirituality? e: For people who are stuck/don't want to do the manual item merging (it sucks a lot) just run infuse equipment for like 20 years. You'll instantly jump way over the limits to automate everything equipment related. uPen fucked around with this message at 20:28 on Aug 12, 2022 |

uPen posted:Immortality questions: you eventually get activities to both recruit and train up followers, and when you get a priest it's very helpful in getting spirituality aptitude up. I'm currently stuck at 997 on ascensions because drag and drop doesn't work on mobile so I can't use projection and even with 60 priests 100q spirituality seems impossible. I also can't finish the last impossible task because even 1 scout gets me killed. not sure what I'm supposed to do except maybe let it run for weeks for empowerment pills

I think the hardest part of these idle games is once you hit a certain level it becomes incredibly difficult to balance the growth scaling with the multiple different forms of high level math you end up having to do for efficiency / to make things actually possible. Realm grinder is great but good lord as soon as you hit midgame it becomes just math. Synergism is like that a little bit it doesn't get anywhere near as bad

For anyone that cares, Legends of Idleon has been released on iOS with cross play between your PC account. There is a big release event, so just playing it on iOS and talking to an NPC gets you a bunch of gems and event chests filled with candy and xp boosters. In addition to being able to get another 50 event chests a day from actively killing monsters. I think I got 600-700 gems from the one time bonus and grinding out some of the extra boxes (while working towards some other stuff). https://apps.apple.com/us/app/idleon-idle-mmo/id1636526901
