Hello there, RPG Codex.

In today's episode of 'Bringing games you've never heard about to the Unwashed Masses', we'll be playing...

Just what IS Rage of Mages 2? Well, actually, that's a good question. I'd classify it as a party-based real-time ARPG/hack'n'slash with some added tactical angle and a hell lot of difficulty.

In fact, 'hell lot of difficult' is quite an understatement, and at some points of the game, you'll wish you were never born!

Couldn't find the intro (although it's nothing more than SOME GUY IS RAISING TEH DEAD ON SOME OMINOUS CEMETERY DURING THE NIGHT!!!), but here's a trailer on jewtube to give you the basic idea, although most of that is bollocks (especially non-linear plot, hurr).

Anyway, the starting update will be short, as you'll have to choose a character that will endure the horrible rape magnificent adventures ahead!

That's a cool main menu. Anyway, so you (YES, YOU!) get to choose from...

rom0002.jpg


The faggy male fighter.

rom0003.jpg


The supersexy female bikini fighter.

rom0004.jpg


The milfy female mage.

rom0005.jpg


And the grumpy male mage.

But wait, there's more! Except the sex and class, you also get to choose the weapon/magic school specialization!

For the fighters, they're as follows:

rom0006.jpg


rom0007.jpg


rom0008.jpg


rom0009.jpg


Fighters also start with half their specialization value in shoopin' weapons. They become pretty significant later on, as there are some flying enemies like bats, succubi, and dragons that can't be harmed in melee.

And for the wizards:

rom0010.jpg


rom0011.jpg


rom0012.jpg


rom0013.jpg


While fighters have 10 in shoopin', wizards have 10 in 'astral magic'. These are mostly all-around support spells like healing and magic shield.

So yeah, that's it. Post your prefered sex + class + specialization ITT, and I'll check it after some unspecified time and continue.

I recently finished RoM 1 and I remember playing RoM 2 to death but I also remember it's uberhuman difficulty in some places.

But it is a nice game and I was looking for way to not remove it from inventory some time ago.

I would choose fighter + axe.

And of course, for maximum RAEG, this LP is going to run in the hardest difficulty :smug: (oh God I'm so screwed)

Did anyone else misread the title as "Rape of Mages"? Anyway, I was dissapoint at first but it seems like a cool game. I say go with the milfy mage and the water sphere.

The game is called Rage of Mages...

so...

Grumpy Mage and AIR MAGIC OFCOURSE.
I mean, you can get invisible with air magic.

Invisible = beats everything

Mage, air. Invisibility is a must. Can you believe it's still only a 2nd-level spell in D&D ?

Grumpy fire mage - he will pwn everything (except goblins and squirells) with fireballs.
Also - i wish you luck on the quest with catapult. You're gonna fucking need it.

Female fighter with clubs.

Because I forget how this game works, but the description for clubs makes them sound pretty bad, and she'd look humorous with a big club.

Not only that. There are a couple other superracist quests, like the stone web, magehunters, or hell, anything involving dragons.

Right, I'll let this run for one more day. Gonna start the EPIC ADVENTURE tomorrow, so if anyone still wants to place a character order, you'd better hurry up.

Searching for my kidnapped sister
Name: Black Cat (Kitty is fine too)

Amazon in bikini with bow and dagger/shortsword.
Or
Female wizardess of water.

The witch costume is not skimpy enough or I would have recommend the mage profession alone...

And it's high time some LP take Black Kitty name in vain. And if you neglect it for long time it would be funny, nya?
