Hammer blow to the skull has consistently worked for killing things.

Corai's guide to the galaxy.

• Step 1: Be yourself!

...

• Step 6: OH GOD HIDE THE BODIES HIDE ALL THE BODIES!

Lol, LW, you always come up with the best posts :p

[Devling]

It also mentions something about removing the quest system of,
"Hey random guy, give me shit to kill!"
And replacing it with something more like,
"Hey leader of this bandit gang, give me shit to kill!"
and then he'll tell you to kill a mayor, or an enemy bandit or something.
That's what I hope happens.

Oh, wow. This is gunna be epic.

I can't wait until I can walk into an elf town and kill everything, then head to a dwarf town and everyone calls me a hero for killing so many elves.

Or when you utterly destroy all attempts made by Dwarves to build diplomatic relations with the Elves, branding you a terrorist by both civilizations. Oh yeah, the RNG would do that.

Non-lethal combat? Finally, I can be Batman!

...I mean, I could be Batman right now, if I modded the Bat men to appear as adventurers, but they'd still end up killing their bounties.

Speaking of bounties, it would be nice if you could capture some villains non-lethally (hogtie?), bring them back to town and get paid for the work. That way, you won't have to be the unstoppable force each and every time you play Adventure Mode.

While I tend to only play a good guy, I'm most exited about starting grudges and having groups and possibly even civilizations make a priority of catching you. The burning vengeful rage of a bandit clan that has had its every members teeth knocked out by "that one damn guy" is something no other game has even dreamed of implementing!

Lol, or the one guy that broke every finger of every hand in the bandit clan (I was really bored, once :p)

I can't help but be excited at the possibilities for future gameplay that these first updates are going to open up. First, we'll be able to coerce enemies into submission, and force them to return to their commanders. Then, we'll get to turn them in to the town guard (if they coul be proven to be a criminal rather than you!) and send them to prison, where we can visit them in their cell. Then, we might be able to take someone to court, get involved with the law and try to provide evidence against someone that we may have gathered/witnessed/pulled out of our asses in order to frame them and convince the guard to incarcerate them without a direct act of violence involved.

The change in immediate enemy recognition is also VERY appreciated. It's a huge step toward fixing the "I walked through a door and accidentally chopped a guy's head off because I beat up somebody's bunny earlier." issues, where the entire civ immediately knows and bumrushes you. It would also be a potential fix for loyalty cascades (but oh the FUN we'd lose!) and generally just handling crimes better. I'm looking forward to this update, and then punching somebody in the face, only to submit a bug report because they sometimes NEVER register you as an enemy, no matter what you do, or your companions fail to recognize that you're under attack. You know it'll happen in the first couple updates.

Now, the problem is raised.


What of kobolds, goblins, and elves? They dont have law.


Would kobolds jsut zerg-rush like humans do now?

Would goblins just be hostile instantly?

HOW will elves "exile" you from a civ your not in?

[Fniff]

I can't wait for a law system, because then I can disregard it and be a cowboy, dispensing justice with a crossbow and sword.

Me gusta.

LEAVE NO SURVIVORS.

[Powder Miner]

Yyeessss! I can finally align myself with my kingdom!
Also this is a step forward to being able to make groups w/ your adventurer as the leader, something I have always wanted to do.
