@nixter ?

@toksyuryel Be warned; it is pretty much a given that at least one of your first few games will end with !everythingsonfire. Heck, that's half the fun. :)

@toksyuryel Pretty much. I almost didn't go through with that one because I felt so bad. As far as my thoughts on it go, the optimum path is [sp]fnir Mhys naq rinphngr[/sp]. #spoiler

@toksyuryel Oh hey, since you're online right now and it seems like it'd be your kinda thing: ever tried !Brogue? It's honestly the most fun I've had with a roguelike in a while (I'm actually kinda annoyed I didn't find it earlier).
-
@rozeluck Huh? I've completed it via all four ending paths (2 choices with 2 options = 4 possible paths), and I'm pretty sure it's always "Setting Sail, Coming Home".
-
@toksyuryel Strangely, my favourite song is actually one which I've not yet encountered in the game itself: The Pantheon (Ain't Gonna Catch You). It's on the soundtrack album, but I can't say I remember ever hearing it in-game.
-
I'm honestly not seeing anything on the Steam sale that both interests me, and didn't interest me enough to buy it at a higher price (or on an earlier sale if it's not new). Ah well, it's early days yet.

@purplephish20 I didn't see the page yet, but I kinda figured that when my Steam client started hanging and crashing out whenever it tried to talk to the mothership. Really hoping this stability problem is just temporary. :/
-
@toksyuryel I set my sail, fly, the winds they may take me, back to my home, sweet home.
-
Build that wall and build it strong, 'cause we'll be there before too long.
-
Okay. Assuming no more ideas invade my brain, good night for real.
-
Well, sort of. I'm going back to bed shortly, but the first time I tried I suddenly had an idea that didn't want to be left until tomorrow: http://bigmacintosh.net/brogue !brogue
-
Remember when I said I was asleep? I LIED
-
And now I'm actually off to bed. G'night, everypony!
-
It occurs to me that I should post a link to my !broguerecs folder in the group, so the link isn't so hard to find: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/srifo5ihabdxnth/vguf0PeRow

@minti Aaand dead for the last time tonight, since I'm going to bed now. New recording's in the broguerecs folder, too. (This time it's "tentacle horrors oh my".)
-
@minti It was a spider before all this, so I'm not sure I made a good choice. Trying my other wand, only to find it was a wand of beckoning, didn't really help either, but I did somehow survive it all. :D
-
@minti Luckily, the same wand that got me into this mess (unknown, turned out to be polymorphism) got me out of it. :)
-
Uh-oh. !brogue http://ur1.ca/9rm1b
-
@redenchilada Is a "#spammer" response actually useful? (If not, sorry. :C)
-
Oh dear, maybe drinking the first potion I found wasn't the best idea. "It must have been a potion of creeping death." (The best part is, I actually found two of them in the same room.) !Brogue

Heh. !brogue http://ur1.ca/9rlso

@minti Plus most potions have slightly different area effects to personal effects (for example, drink a potion of descent and you just teleport down a depth level; throw one, and you make a temporary pit that opens onto the next depth level), and it can be fun to just throw them anyway.
-
@minti Resets. Once your adventurer has encountered it in a run and seen its effect, they'll recognize it on sight (well, some roguelikes have a rare amnesia effect that wipes ~1/4 of your discovered items), but each new run resets all the appearance/effect pairings.
-
@minti It's like Nethack without all the "wait, what does this do? *checks wiki* ohhhh".
-
@minti Also, I have now died to the goblin that the totem hasted, so that one's now in the folder as goblins.broguerec if you want to watch me basically eat/drink everything I find, and generally endanger my own safety. :)
