Talking to yourself
« on: August 16, 2018, 11:34:38 am »

If you talk to an unconscious/unable to talk creature, and bypass the greeting, you can talk to yourself. Yes, this DOES satisfy needs that involve talking.

Should make marriageable bonds highly amusing.

You can't marry in adventure mode.

I'm noticing more and more, lack of marriage, lack of smithing, how will I be able to create from scratch the Quests of Siegfried? I'll leave it up to the modding board though.

You can't mod in marriage. The game is less than 50% complete, it kind of makes sense, you know.

I don't mean to impinge on this topic, but DF is the perfect format for modding in Old World style settings, like Finland's Unreal World, but with quests to slay dragons and become immortal by bathing in their blood, after forging the legendary sword spoken of in myth that is required to slay it, then going forward to win the great Queen's favor.

Procedurally generated magic is coming in ~2-3 years. So you can recreate myths or something. But you can't mod anything like that right now.

Be careful if you try to argue with yourself - last time I played with it you could give yourself needs but not remove them.

Ironblood didn't use an axe because he needed it. He used it to be kind. And right now he wasn't being kind.
