-snipped- by Reudh because it was rude



As for your

"TES V. OH WAIT THAT IS TOO OBSCURE; Skyrim." shit, why mock me? If i'm on an internet connection that's stretched paper thin, then one more tab might bring it down. Jeeze. I know Wiki and Google aren't especially heavy, but it would've been faster if he'd simply mentioned it rather than me having to cross-reference my facts every time someone mentions a game.

Jeeze, calm down.

I agree with Reudh, who cares if he asked for the name of a game, I have never heard of APB.
And posting memes and asking for games isn't exactly "Wrong". If your example had to do with thinking it's okay to murder someone because someone else did, I would understand... but we're talking about video games, on a forum based around Dwarf Fortress.

I have tried out many games based off this thread. THAT's why you add the name.

Alright, everyone needs to take five and chill out. Anyone can make an honest mistake.

Dungeons of Dredmor, ran into the floor 3 monster zoo. Slaughtering left and right, but then suddenly invisible named boss diggle that does 11 damage per hit (I had 71 hp) and I'm down.

I stabbed myself in the stomach and my bodyguard/someone sliced my head off to finish me.

Slaughtered everything on the 2nd floor of the Puppy Cave dungeon, went to explore the one tiny room I hadn't entered and got absolutely WTFPWNRAPED in 1 hit by a Lizardman. First of all, HOW THE FUCK does something in a level 2 dungeon murder me when I'm very well-armored, and second of all, I've never seen a Lizardman before. No damn clue how in the hell it randomly found its way to a newbie low-level dungeon where I 1-hit everything with my bow. (and I'm a horrible bowman).


Elona. Haven't played in months, but I'm back to playing it. >_> I never resurrect my characters unless they're very well-off and worth it. This was such an odd death that I decided to savescum to a few moments earlier and promptly haul ass the fuck out of the dungeon.

Due to intense graphics lag, I was unable to hit my healing spell 'Radiating Aura' in time against some level 5 gangsta who shot me to pieces.

The very first dungeon door I've found was locked, so naturally I kicked it.

Exploded right into my face.

Even though I'm a horse lancer build I decided to help my Nord allies attack Sudo (or something along those lines) owned by some red country.   Taking part in the battle meant that I would be using my lance on foot which obviously isn't ideal, but I didn't have another weapon handy and it seemed pretty one sided favoring my guys so I wasn't worried.

So I climb up the ladders and perch near the top poking at the defenders trying to keep me from getting onto the wall because I completely outrange them by a mile with my big pointy stick vs their small metal club.  The nords and my own troops from the other ladder manage to take the wall in front of me thanks to my incessant kidney poking and I hop up too to take part. 

We take the defenders out but more keep showing up.  And soon enough from my own not paying attention I am the only attacker left on the wall.  I hold for a short time until defenders start showing up behind me too and jump back to my ladder.  Except I kinda lost track of where my ladder was and jumped out the wrong gap in the fortifications.  I fall and take 15 damage knocking me out.

On my way back to the nord capital I get intercepted by a small war party and with my greatly weakened guards and my low health I am easily captured and my remaining personal army gets scattered to the winds.

*sneaks into the next room of the dungeon*
Necromancer: "...and then I was all like: What up bro and he-"
*sound of rattling bones as my follower attempts to rip the gaudy decorations out of the roof*
Necromancer: "It's the Fuzz! Cheese it!"
*seeing that there's no escape they both summon fire daemons and ready their most powerful fire spells*
Follower: "This calls for my fiery death wall spell and the STAFF OF FIERY APOCALYPSE!"
Me: "Is that oil on the ground."

I swear that the entire world just exploded over the course of five seconds.

Yay! After a certain scene with two dragons on the Throat of the World, I decided to test out that Ethereal shout. I leapt off the highest point of the Throat of the World, but I forgot to make a quicksave/sleep, then cancel in rapid succesion to make an autosave, and as I was falling, I learned the hard way that you can't use shouts in mid-air.

Cue dying and sliding off the mountain at high velocities.

And I'm back to the beginning of the aforementioned certain scene, and I have to fight that dragon again...

Took a strategy of island-hopping, destroying every enemy on it, then setting up towers to keep them from re-settling there. Eventually, I was on the island closest to their main base, their navy being constantly sunk by my laser ships, their costal facilities and aircraft bombed by laser planes, and both navy and coastal buildings took a good smashing from across the water with my laser artillery(by the endgame, everything is laser). I was preparing to move my troops onto their main island.

Then all of a sudden many Marines attacking my everything. The laser towers, they do nothing.

Kicking from a diagonal direction seems to increase your chances of dodging whatever trap(and allows you to completely escape falling doors, since they only fall forward). Throwing an anvil around helps, too.
