>>564283272huh, didn't notice they changed the OP a bit since last time
I thought /vg/ had slowed down a bit more than this, oh well.
>>564283272Ah well, it seems like nobody is here anymore. Well, if anyone passes by, the new /rlg/ generals are here >>>/vrpg/3966900
>>564283272ok fine. tell me about the little sister slave trade again and why i should enjoy it?
sad to witness another period of arelgee being so deadmiss younot her
>>564305121Kill yourself faggot
>>564305121Anon, stop with the retarded questions.
>>564307787Well, we have the /vrpg/ threads at least. /rlg/ won't die there, but unfortunately, yes, /rlg/'s time on /vg/ seems to be over. It was bound to happen, it's nothing but gacha and the occasional MMO at the top of activity in this board, that's all the board is at this point, other threads don't have much of a place here.
>>564307787can't believe you're still here after all this time
/rlg/ is dead, long live /rlg/
Ironic that /rlg/ can't handle permadeath settings of /vg/ any more.
If /domg/ can survive, you can survive /rlg/
/rlg/ died a long time ago
it's just a corpse at this point
You bump into page 10
Oh hey, it's still here
>>564331752Didn't even realize /domg/ was still alive, as there been a new release or something?
roguelikes for this feel?
>>564363371What's the deadest roguelike?
>>564361426No but it plays multiplayer
>>564363495I think Hack has been dead the longest
>>564372339There's your answer then, I suppose. Seems fitting for the current situation.
I wonder when was the last time that one video was posted here.
>>564371505Perhaps a multiplayer roguelike is what's needed to save /rlg/.When even was the last time there was any multiplayer activity in /rlg/, it's been like, what, 5 years since any actual participation in the tournament?
>20 hours, 20 repliesgrimanyways now that zombie cows at the dairy farms in cdda can be trapped by the walls, whats a good use for these, besides training a bit of firearms skill or spear stabbin
>>564377067found one "good" use. with a slingshot, and rocks for pebbles, you can spam training archery on these for free. just stand one tile away and hold fire, itll use pebbles on the ground next to you. im battery these poor cows with THOUSANDS of pebbles
>>564378261If it's DDA don't you have practicing so you don't have to do mundane skill grindan manually?
>>564377067Can you milk regular cows? Are there even regular cows in DDA? Honestly now sure what you could do with zombie ones.
>>564377067>grimwe've moved to >>>/vrpg/3966900 lil' nigletyou're free to page 10 miss her offtopic emptybump your shitass thread for no reason other than being a stubborn fuck
>>564379490practice only raises your level so many levels, like, 1, for most cases. and you need equipment/materials to do the practice stuff that goes higher anways. this is marksmanship/archery/throwing with nothing but a stick, rubber hose and pebbles (smashing rocks), so its basically free and feasible to do instantly.anyways, not saying this is the best/most efficient, im just trying to find uses for it. its KINDA useful to me because ive found a few crossbows/bows and my character had zero skill. i might actually try using them since i can theoretically just grind it here tediously.i guess you could lure a shegorath in, and have an enemy you could infinity practice on with the more powerful weapons if you didnt find any other method to train them? if you REALLY havent found an aim game unit. maybe practice grenade launchers? dunno, just spitballing uses for this spot.>>564380074pretty sure you can, but i never get far enough to bother with that mechanic. i get killed way before food actually gets scarce.
>>564381298>from /vg/, a board with 90,000 posts a day>to /vrpg/, a board with...800 posts a dayHOLY jesus, thats...thats a bold strategy, cotton. lets see it pans out.
nigga actually thinks there's 90000 posts a day in this thread which struggles to get 20 posts in 20h if he wasn't 100% black I would have quoted him
>>564381768>in this thread>when i literally said "a board"grim
>>564381298Don't know about the others but I'm gonna stay here until this thread dies
>>564381336What the fuck have they done to DDA? It's been years since I've played, you can't level up past a certain point just by using the skills now?
>>564382042yeah splitting an already super slow thread is bound to pan out super well. oh well.>>564382127maybe im not getting you? yes, you can shoot real zombies with real ammo and get to level 9+ eventually. theres a practice menu where you can get to some levels, without using ammo, which is the trade off. your just dry firing/practicing drawing, not actually shooting. that gets you SOME levels but tops out.what do you mean, could you just "forever practice, not using any ammo" in a basement and become a sniper tier marksman?
lmao never had one of the workers just decide to ride along in my car. gonna go drop him off at a town or something lol
>>564382781>yeah splitting an already super slow thread is bound to pan out super wellIt's only splitting if there's people like you who absolutely and categorically need to post on veegee. Is the name of the board you post on that important? 99% of /vg/ users don't even look at generals other than "their" game so it's not like staying on /vg/ will bring new roguelike enjoyers overnight, see people like :https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/562923749/#563009626
>>564385597theres already literally been people posting here who didnt know there was a different thread in a different board, and a few that said they wouldnt swap. dunno what to tell you. its already happening, not "what if it happens".anyways, im not even gonna beef, if this gets enough posts that a mention the other thread exists is no longer near the bottom of the thread, ill mention it. good luck
Nigga the thread was made by a guy from the other general and then another schizo bumped this 20 times before it got its first real post, which is from the DDA guy who was also posting in the other threadIt's the exact same group of people.
>>564386087Calm down, schizo
Does dwarf fortress adventure mode have diagonal movement? I don’t have a numpad and can’t seem to figure out diagonal binds
>>564392194It does, without a numpad you could use vi keys instead, I remember DF had them but they might not be on by default.
>>564382781>yes, you can shoot real zombies with real ammo and get to level 9+ eventually. theres a practice menu where you can get to some levels, without using ammo, which is the trade off. your just dry firing/practicing drawing, not actually shooting. that gets you SOME levels but tops out.Ok, I understand now, I simply misunderstood you.
>>564384737He will become your best buddy, trust.
>>564363371a dead online RL?no idea. host a telnet game that no one plays?
>>564402767Give some suggestions.
When are they gonna make a roguelike about planes
>>564382127>What the fuck have they done to DDA?Many awful things, and only weirdos haven't moved to BN by now
>>564415468What about C:TLG, is that any good?
>>564410246About a year ago I saw screenshots of a WWI aerial combat roguelike that somebody had posted, but the project never released anything.
>>564415667I think it depends on if you like bugs and crashes and "realism-autism, but different this time." For me, no. I wanna play a game for a while, have fun, and turn it off, and DDA/TLG
>>564416861..are not built for that. Too grindy(Didn't notice I had accidentally hit post so that it was counting down to auto post while I was in the middle of typing/editing, lol)
>>564416739Really? Sounds interesting, can you at least remember the name if it had one, or what the image actually showed?
>>564416861>>564417005Sounds like just a different flavor of the same shit. I expected something different since TLG does seem to have gaines a considerable following.
>>564418426Found it in the archives. Terence McKenna, the Skies of Bloody April, he's some roguelike dev guy who hangs out on reddit, it was a project he had briefly, posted a few WIP screenshots, and then I guess abandoned it.
>>564424876Goddamn, this is really interesting, shame it seemed to have went nowhere, it does look very in-depth, I wonder how the gameplay was intended to work.
>>564283272>MudGateApparently this thing has 1-8 player Co-Op, not sure exactly how that works in a turn-based game.
>>564392194Looking at it you might just have to rebind the keys manually to actually get vi keys support.
Is stoneshard any good? I tried it and it seems really lame
>>564438040From all that I've heard, it can be good, but not really worth the price they're asking, better to pirate or buy on a sale. Also it seems like the devs are taking their sweet time adding things into the game.
>Stoneshard has been in early access for over 6 years nowlollmao
I wonder if the guy who made the Shadowed game is still here
>>564382781How would you train social skills by yourself? Talking to yourself in front of a mirror?
......The fuck is that? Whatever it is I'm not touching it as it seems like certain death.
>>564451814Touching it is bad but I do not remember if it was an extreme threat. It could be possible that it spawn enemies though.
alive
>>564434228Thanks for checking. I don’t really like vi keys so guess I’ll just have to buy a numpad or smth
>>564451814Portals are a field effect, like fire, sparks, toxic gas or smoke, and different levels of it have different namesI believe Tear in Reality is the strongest tier of portal, but I haven't noticed any difference between the various tiers so it is just cosmetic.If you touch it, you'll be teleported, and don't try to drive through it, but aside from that it's mostly harmless. If you spend too much time near it, various monsters will spawn. So if you want to see what a lepidopterid is, keep hanging around
Name a roguelike
>>564455040Spawns enemies same as any other portal.
>>564447625Hitler did it
>>564451814Portals like this can spawn flaming eyes, so it's best to leave the area and not come back.
what am i in for
>>564477583A good, but VERY difficult experience.
>>564477583Also, tell us how it goes, first time Infra Arcana runs are always fun to read about.
>>564448890Xom's make-a-wish kid (has 9 lives)
>>564427487This is so fucking weird, it's like they took the dungeon generation from Rogue that was just rectangles, but removed the corridors that connected the rooms and instead just made portal tiles that teleport you to the next adjacent room. What a weird way to make a roguelike.
>>564486817At least the matrix roguelike rolled with it and had you superjump between rectangles.
>>564451814pro-tip, hit r or shift + r i think on the map and set a radius to mark an area as dangerous. the nice thing about this is that youll autopath around it for the autodrive, so you can just mark off towns or paths that are a pain to go down and not have to micromanage the autodrive.shit example, but on some older maps i had, i could just autopath from say, exodi to hub which was like 150 tiles away without having to baby it once. just click go and tab out, tab back in and id be there
>>564492682I remember people complaining about autodrive years ago when it was added, I wonder if they made it any better.
>>564493776the time saves worth it fucking you over every once and a while, just save and be ready to roll back if it does something dumb. hit x to turn on fast travel, so you dont even leave the overmap and its MUCH faster then doing it manually.things it may fuck you on are barbed wire fences. so the (insert special event here) and say, the farms that have barbed wire fences around them, or camps with spiked pits? if you autodrive around those autodrive may just fuckin yolo a tire into it and kill your car, which is pretty shit. and SOMETIMES youll get kicked out of autodrive only to find youve stopped right next to a feral at your car door, which can fuck you hard as well.seriously, it cuts down on large travel time SO much, its worth trying out. seriously if they removed it i would just drop the game entirely, i wouldnt bother slogging it out.
the sheer amount of key-presses and focus this saved me, and cut it down to 26 seconds? totally worth the risk.
>>564492682>>564495804I have this vague recollection of someone on this general who for some reason wanted to play Cataclysm entirely on the overmap. It's so strange I'm not sure if I'm just remembering it wrong or if it was actually real.
>>564500165I think I once dreamt that I tried to flush a fruit down the toilet. Or maybe it wasn't a dream. I just know that there was a period of time where this really confused me. It must be a memory of a memory of a memory at this point; I don't even remember what fruit it was.Your post just randomly reminded me of this.
>>564500165i can picture how that would work. those games that have an "auto battle" feature? you could just click on like, a house and get a list of options:>loot (y/n)>fight(y/n)>sleep(y/n)and like, check a few boxes and an a.i attempts all your goals and gives you a status report.>>564503104when you go to sleep, do you sometimes fall through the bed, and this jolts you awake
>>564283272Just read the patch notes for .34 for Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. I already have been aware of how retarded things were getting and wrote them off. I had 0 faith for whoever is running things, it's been obvious for years that they're dead set on just ruining the game and taking it into a stupid direction. But even with 0 expectations, they still managed to impress me with how fucking dumb the changes and additions are. It's so clear that some anal-retentive midwit with a penchant for tedium came up with these ideas. Like every line is dense, obtuse, needlessly convoluted, and overcomplicated for no real reason. DCSS used to be great for its tight design and simplicity. It was really concise, coherent, and straightforward. Now every enemy, every spell, every interaction is an exercise in frustration. "X adds 1 stack of Y 1/nth of the time where n is a function f(x + c/4) where x is the current number of enemies in view and c is a constant which is randomly generated each time you go down a staircase. At 3 stacks, your characters tillywinkles Stat is deincremented by 3/5k where k is the number of individuals keystrokes you've entered since the last time you encountered any enemy with the FLUID_ID flag". Jesus fucking christ. Midwits not even once. They love their complexities, they really think it makes them smart to design such rotten garbage. Not to mention the very slight tinge of malice that undercurrents everything now. Just below the surface but undoubtedly there once you notice it. Some hateful dweeb is responsible, probably a tranny, I'd bet money on it.
>>564505816That's a lot of words for>more knowledge burden=more skill
>>564505816Anon, while your complaints are all valid, at the end of the day, it's your fault for even bothering to keep up with DCSS in this day and age. The game that we knew of is long gone, it's time to forget about it.
>>564505816have they removed attack of opportunity yet or are they still in the game
>>564507873Still in the game >>564506856I know it's just so painful. I really loved DCSS a lot. A whole lot. Obviously I can just play older versions but then there are legitimate improvements and features that I do genuinely like, it's just mixed in with a massive number of godawful changes. The solution is of course playing a fork or making my own which I suppose I will do one of these days.>>564506095Care to elaborate?
>>564509757>Still in the gameGame's still shit then. Are there any good DCSS forks these days? Last one I played was Kimchi many years ago.
