    Any decent turn based/stat focused space games in the last 20 years?

    33, actually.

    In Progress Lets play the best Storyfag RPG of all time: Betrayal at Krondor!

    Two pieces of advice: - Go check out before going into the cave. You'll be glad you did, and IIRC you kind of NEED to before progressing, anyway. - I might be misremembering, but I seem to recall that using the cup a second time (maybe after a certain trigger, but before the end of the...

    The Codex of Roguelikes

    Ragnarok / Valhalla from 1992. (Valhalla is a slightly newer version with music, possibility of making backup saves and IIRC slightly better sounds.) Viking-themed roguelike with a big (but not exclusive) emphasis on overland exploration as you collect magical weapons for the Aesir to wield on...

    In Progress X-Piratez! Ironman! No spoilers! Oldschool X-COM Total Conversion with mutant amazon pirates. Death to the star gods!

    Don't worry. No game is worth burning out over. Just pace yourself and take your time.

    Thief fan missions and campaigns

    Interesting. I always felt that deer legs (both in Thief 2 and FMs) had a higher chance of healing than other foodstuffs. Was I just imagining it, or is it perhaps a deliberate exception?

    Oh yeah, that's right. I misremembered.

    In Progress X-Piratez! Ironman! No spoilers! Oldschool X-COM Total Conversion with mutant amazon pirates. Death to the star gods!

    Yeah, but in the long term, it's not just about the money. IIRC (at least in normal X-Com), if a certain number of countries cuts funding, you automatically lose. And with the inherent autism of X-Piratez, who knows how much country swaying bullshit the game is going to throw at us?

    Gold Box SSI's Gold Box Series Thread

    I for one will certainly want to read it. Here's something you might want to investigate, seemingly a bug I've run into on a playthrough of Matrix Cubed a while ago. Early on on Venus, you can get a whole bunch of Venusian Polearms as loot from a fight. Sometime later I noticed that if I gave...

    In Progress X-Piratez! Ironman! No spoilers! Oldschool X-COM Total Conversion with mutant amazon pirates. Death to the star gods!

    Regarding zombies (or anything else) popping back up after being knocked unconscious... Can't you just handcuff them? I know it used to be a feature in the past, and I imagine it's probably still in. The actual mechanics are a bit obscure, you'd need to look them up.

    Any exploration based RPG to recommend ??

    In that case, I really liked The Outer Wilds, a first person shooter non-violent game which is all about exploration, navigational and environmental challenges. It's got a big heart, you can tell the its a labour of love by the creators.

    Any exploration based RPG to recommend ??

    Just to clarify, do you means exploration-based RPGs specifically (since you posted this in the RPG forum), or any sort of exploration-based game?

    Can you play a campaign as the good guys who protect the colonies from the violent traitorous rebels?

    Islands of the Caliph - Arabian Nights single character dungeon crawler

    Thanks for being oh so useful, may Allah repay it a hundred thousand times next time you're asking for help with a game. But seriously, I'm stuck on the main mission, which will not progress until I find a new source of iron ore. Is the iron on the same island, or somewhere completely different?

    Islands of the Caliph - Arabian Nights single character dungeon crawler

    On Minhaaj Island (northernmost one, where the people are looking for a new source of iron), how the hell do you get to the northwestern half of the caldera? Do you need to go to some other island and find a completely different way there? I've been to everywhere in the accessable area (city...
