How do git gud at crawl??

Be more specific, please, what are you dying to?

>rlg is kill

Seems like a recent update of CDDA borked up lighting calculations.
Going down into a lab gives me a 1 tile sight range even though I have full night vision.
Turning on a flashlight still gives me the same sight range so something's fucked.

I'm going to chalk this up the holidays
fucking normies

Pretty much everything. I used to reliably get to at least lair but then I took a break for a year or so and now I've seen lair once over 30 splats.

I hate roguelieks.

The games you hate probably aren't even roguelikes, lmoa.

yeah dungoen crawl rng suop isnt a roguelike

Correct, it honestly isn't

Nethack might be more your speed

It's paid but it costs practically nothing unless you want the DLC. It goes on sale from time to time too

One Way Heroics v1.91 inc. PLUS v1.28 - SteamRIP / by tentononc

got that one
I guess its a few versions behind but w/e

Who the fuck was on the night shift?
You really dropped the ball man.

I just noticed the same thing. There's an issue on GitHub, posted today, that says it's been broken since September.

I am positive that I played with normal sightranges long after september, it just got broke with the recent update.
The github issue post also only talks about flashlight ranges and not natural sight range as well as nightvision.

Tuturu!
i need to finish watching that anime

>started s;g
>didn't finish
user

Are there still vaguely optimal positive and negative traits to take in DDA?

How about stats? Is it worthwhile to minmax them, or is it better to have a mostly even spread?

>halfway through 10+ anime
>only watching ~1 episode per day
i have a problem

Pretty sure the Poles are responsible for /rlg/ staying up when the Burgers are asleep.

>I played with normal sightranges long after september
Oh, that makes more sense. It would have been a bit weird for all of underground to be broken for three months.

Aboveground is also broken, by the way. Items dropped at Z+1 fall through floors.

Yes and yes.
Positive traits are more valuable with the newish multipool system because you don't have to reduce your stats to take them.

Just watch the good ones, user. S;G is one of the best.

So the thing that is most important to understand about DDA is that literally any character can "win" it, or at least thrive. This isn't like someone saying that mummy chaos knight is easy and that anyone who can't win with broken fingers and no blood is bad at the game. This is just a fact. Once you realize that the key to cata is a wooden spear, turbo sewing and gathering, you'll also realize that your starting stats, traits and skills are purely there for you to set the pace of the start of the game. Do you want to be a shining golden god, able to rain death upon your zombo enemies by punching them into gibs with your 14 strength? Do you want to have fun in the start of the game by starting with all the busy work of grinding done away with by starting with fab/cook/sewing/whatever at 2-6? Do you want to be nofun allowed guy and start with paper skin and glass bones? Its really up to you. I'd suggest NO stat adjustments from 8 except maybe Int to 10, whatever traits you want and at least 1 point of skill investment in survival/tailoring/fab/cooking for a more balanced cata experience. Probably 2 points for fabrication. Take a good start like survivalist too, since the point investment stacks very well along with it being cheaper overall to grab the backround vs. the skills it brings. A lot of people would tell me I'm wrong for not min maxing the start, but I really do feel like the worst part of cataclysm is the book grind and skill grind. Being able to start right away while also not being an invincible perfect stat Adonis is a fun experience, since the monsters scale better than you do. At least until you have enough shotguns and cars to not worry about hulks. You just can't manfight them is all.

I was kinda expecting this long ass post to be about grinding and oats farming

I know reddit spacing is a meme, but you know you're still allowed to have paragraph breaks right?

If you have Cigotuvi's Embrace should you keep animate dead on or no?

Thanks for the detailed answer, user. I mainly just want to know which negative traits are best to take and which positive traits are best to take from a gamey point of view.

When I used to play DDA years ago, I pretty much took the same traits every time.because most of them were no-brainers.

Where the fuck were you queers last night?

i gotta ulock shit in one way heroics ? man this kinda sux

Asleep, you dummy. I passed out after finally finishing my tome run.

How does this make any sense?

It's a bug that occurs when alt-tabbing.
The HUD only updates when it is changed, so when it turns all black due to that bug, you either have to update every single HUD element through gameplay or quickly save and reload.
I do the latter option.

neverEVER

I could never be oatguy

I'm glad it's not just me. I can fix it just by opening the inventory, though.

what do you think of downwell

>roguelike platform game

it's not a roguelike
i played it on android and fount the touchscreen controls poorly done
there are just big touchscreen buttons along the bottom for "move left" "move right" and "jump"

Sauce?

Some shit does in fact make a big difference. Parkour, for example, matters not just to expedite kiting, but also to make it vastly quicker to get in and out of your vehicle.

will this be sufficient?

Thats right, worship me with your eyes you slut.
i'm just trying to have fun and keep the thread alive with some spice, man. come on, its all in good fun

>stumbling over words during dramatic reading
My roommates thought i was having a fight with someone and came in to ask if I was ok

I am back after a couple of years. Anything new? This general seems less bloated than before.

thankfully most of rlg's content has been removed
the remainder is far more elegant and tactical

Where is the staff approved bloat?

oh yeah you could play the Sil-Q fork that's new
or ~caves of qud~ and ~tangleeep~ but those are steam roguelikes that cost dollars so rlg hates them

15 rune mumo was won.
Ivan got a new update with tons of content.
sil-Q is a new thing, thats a huge FotM.
I think thats it. the rest is pretty much just shi-

I literally, Literally! LITERALLY! went from max HP- oh-oh wait its the same gu- never mind, sorry.

>Sil-q
>UNFUCKED SMITHING
Yiss
I know what will I play over the next few months months

So I guess all food is bread now.

fucking stupid. Why would you not add more food to make it more varied- I don't understand the devil's team. I'm not even mad. just confused.

when you see that d:5 twogre just press aa and hold that mf tab

If all food is functionally the same, why not literally have it all be the same. You lose flavour but gain less inventory bloat I guess. I don't really mind it. It just means I get to pickup some javelins and tomahawks since its all 1 thing now.

why not just get rid of food then

since outside of extra circumstances its never an issue at all

A madman actually did it? Naice, naice, veri naice.

throwing reform when desu

It already got reformed tho. Its very strong as is.

that's endgame
first you reduce all food to one type
next is to "goldify" food and just turn it into a counter on the ui like gold instead of an inventory item
then at that point the devs will realize how pointless and meaningless it actually is, add some minor nerfs to spriggans and trolls, and then remove food entirely

throwing is great but having 3 of each kind of javelin and tomahawk and needle isnt
devil's team pls merge some of the shit ones

like does anyone miss having +0, +1, +2 and +3 arrows of 4 different brands
it's the same shit

I can't really see them fixing it without outright removing stuff like poison javelin/steel tomahawk and just buffing the base item again. Or making throwing require a base item to throw them and moving all egos to that. Just enjoy ye olde autism of FUCKING your inventory up with missiles. Just like .13

poison at least has a reason to exist
steel vs regular is pointless
too bad devs would never add quivers or a throwing shit bag

*implements a quiver*

*implements a scrolling inventory system like in ADOM*

DCSS already has that, you buffoon.

do not do this it makes mustard gas

I feel like the only game that does ranged combat right is Tome4, which is very odd to me.

wow that is a lot of tactics. time to play adom

DCSS everything bound to a key so you have a cap of ABCDEabcde etc

adom lets you have unlimited stacks of items and nothing is bound to a key

That's not a "scrolling inventory system." That's just a lack of inventory size limit.

...

are you an idiot

This sounds great. Anyone know if there are more new spells?

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Can I go to sleep without you faggots letting the thread die?

No, in fact that is you.
