Was slapping around the first gym trainer in Ecruteak Gym...

...then the battery in my 3DS died.

Pokemon Crystal. Pisses me off not only for losing 3 minutes of progress but also because I checked the battery status less than half an hour before it died and it still said at least 66% charged.

What the hell kind of name even is Ecruteak? Like yeah, sure, "Welcome to our town, Pucebirch. Just down the road thataway, you'll find our neighbors in Ochrebocote. Just make sure you stick to the main road though, so you don't end up in Taupeanigre."

Ecru is a color, teak is a tree. That's the naming theme of Johto: color-plant.

That's also the naming theme of all the examples I provided.

"Blackthorn" is still edgy and weird, particularly as home of the "holy" dragons.

Would be a good name for a shady mercenary company, though.

My own death:

Three peasants and one gal is not a viable team setup when the three peasants all die in the first turn.

If you don’t get distracted by the boobs or enraged by the anime artwork that is used sometimes, it’s a pretty solid, pretty fun game.

Also:

I have no idea how to play M.U.L.E. without ending up dead last every single time. It's kind of frustrating. I'm playing using Planet M.U.L.E. by the way, so if anyone has any advice, do tell, please.

I almost started to strangle myself IRL from rage: All I wanted is simply to vassalize fucking Byzantium, but FUCK THAT SHITLOAD OF FUCK, CUZ THE GAME HAS DECIDED THAT BYZANTIUM SHOULD TAKE MY FORTS IN 6 MONTHS, WHILE MY ARMIES HAD TO BESIEGE CONSTANTINOPLE FOR 3 YEARS STRAIGHT BEFORE FINALLY TAKING IT! FUCK THIS BULLSHIT: FUCK IT! FUCK IT! FUCK IT! FUCK IT! FUCK IT! FUCK IT! FUCK IT, ALL DOWN TO THE SATAN'S SHITTING ROOM!

Or even for a dark action-platformer from the mid 90's! With some minor adjustments, perhaps... Like an "e" on the end, for example. 'Twas the olden days, after all!

[Akura]

Trying to figure this game out. Heard an alarm, "Unauthorized lift access". Somehow the AI snuck a single trooperbot right into my office. Game only lasted 7 minutes.

Executive Assault. Now I know why the player character sleeps in his cryonics tube with a pistol.

[AzyWng]

Decided to do something deliberately stupid and attacked the very first people who I met. At this point, I had a machete and a pistol with less than one magazine. I had no armor. I got shot.

Sprinted around and stepped on a landmine.

Got shot on a number of occasions. The most recent occasion was when I decided to stroll into Neozi territory (Basically Neo-Nazis who hate mutants and such) and ran into some character named "Fuhrer". While I was able to sneakly approach him (even after making him shoot down the door), a few throwing knives made him charge straight at me, and in a few seconds my character was dead.

Almost Alive. Similarly to Fallout: New Vegas, your character wakes up after surviving a shot to the head in a world that has only barely survived a nuclear war. However, in Fallout, sometimes characters can survive multiple shotgun blasts at close range, or take an entire magazine of assault carbine bullets to the head.

In Almost Alive, such an attack would leave them dead for certain - but this cuts both ways since you're also as fragile (unless your armor is really good).

While the game itself is very edgy (The land mine is given the name "Childkiller" because apparently it's likely that a child would fall victim to them) and the writing and dialogue doesn't exactly seem to be the work of a native English speaker, it's got potential, and the developer (singular, since it appears to just be him and a music artist working on the game) seems to genuinely care for his creation - which is more than I can say for some vastly more popular games these days.

[scourge728]

this sounds like an interesting game, where can I obtain it?

[AzyWng]

This is the place.

The games still in development with a whole slew of features to be added. Currently, though, you have guns, people to shoot/stab/beat over the head/talk to, land mines to blunder into, loot to pick up, and a main quest to follow.

Edit: I should remember to scroll down before trying to be snarky

Not my death but I was trying to recruit a pirate from a recent raid.  Sadly he went berserk in the prison.

Ok I'll just have my melee go in there and attack just once, just enough to get them back unconcious from blood loss again, and I'll just patch them back up, I got plenty of medicine.

Ok Friends-with-Moon, be very very careful.



...Good job Moon.

Will, my expert blacksmith, got very upset once and decided to kill our animals.  My melee expert arrested him cut off his leg, but only after he had killed a dog.  Because I didn't have a hospital ready to install a bionic leg, Will was out of commission for 3 days.  The moment he got out of bed, his wife of 5 years divorced him.  Turns out, it was her dog.

Later, he got upset (the last straw was "his wife Amanu divorced him") and decided to smash our TV.  Our expensive megascreen TV that we can't replace on our own.  He managed to do this before anyone could get to him to stop him.  This was a red flag, and I should have banished him while I had the chance, but I valued his blacksmithing skills too much.

A month later, Will was working late in the workshop with Ramon, our artist.  Will got upset (the last straw was "his wife Amanu divorced him"), and went berserk.  Maybe Ramon said something.  Regardless, by the time my melee fighters had dropped their weapons and made their way to the workshop to beat him down, he had already killed Ramon by smashing his torso with a uranium mace.  We successfully arrested him with no further injuries, but this was an unforgivable crime.  The next morning the colony executed Will for murder.  After all the shit he pulled, no one really cared.
