Why does this happen all the time?
« on: May 13, 2012, 05:45:42 pm »
It really annoys me when, in combat it says "the cow gores you in the third to with its horn" or "the chicken punches you in the finger" WTF also how do they rip my fat by shaking me and also why is the human child biting my foot and latching on?

You'll stop asking those questions when you manage to lodge a lion's corpse into another lion. By throwing.

Thank you for all the fish. It was a good run.

Edit. Oh Jesus Christ, Necro would be proud. The second horse in the caravan came in and immediately caught on fire. I looked into his inventory and found a burning pig tail fiber bag. Curious, I looked inside.

I don't know how lodging lions on other lions is fun...
But it's your opinion, I hate throwing stuff, it just ruins the realism.

It is very realistic to assume you can throw a lion onto another one, it just requires a large amount of force from the thrower.

Lion lodged on Lion is also realistic, except it's more "lion #1's guts lodged onto lion #2's fur" as opposed to two lions stuck together...

Open to interpretation, really.

This combat system is awesome, just wait till you shatter skulls by throwing water and pummel kobolds with dragon corpses.
