Real gamers drop their "adult" responsabilities in order to do justice to the greates cause. Everything else, like delivering the manuscript, deadlines and giving food to your kids comes second.

I'm not at home until Tuesday.

Well, I bought it. I mean, why care if I'll have to eat sandwiches for 2 days instead of lunch, if I'll be doing the right thing? :salute:

Now, it's time to die a lot. This will be a fun weekend.

Finally I started repeating a fight over and over hoping for the RNG to give me the needed edge, lol. Good old AoD.
I keep getting shot to shit by a crossbow girl I can't hit with my shit crossbow dude and I can't reach her with melee. It's the 2nd Roxxane? fight. She wipes out my team before I can kill all her henchmen. Think think, what to do...
Hoping for RNG is not a good strategy, but it does work if you're min-maxing. If you're not, I suggest bombs to knock her down, nets to decrease her THC a hammer to the face to put her in her place.
Crossbows are a pain though. Positioning is important against them, I found.

It seems that the emperor fight (or the entirety of the game after the Praetorians) is a bit overtuned for Solo Psychopath. It boils down to hoping that RNG wins you the entire fight through constant dodging/blocking.

Thanks for the suggestions, brah.
Can you also suggest where should I conjure some additonal bombs to knock her down? I will ask those ants to kindly pick up the pieces of the bombs from their tunnels and bring them up to the surface again I suppose. Also, while you're at it, explain to me how can I net her when I don't have any nets left? Does "a hammer to the face" work when I cannot reach her with melee weapons? It sure as shit doesn't seem like it cuz I keep clicking that buten and nothing happens.

Anyway, thanks for the attempt at advice but that's useless as shit.

Is there a way to tell my characters which way to face while they're in battle? I can't seem to find anything.

Sorry too late - already gave it to some Codexer with ~10 posts.

But I can give you Caves of Qud if you are like and play roguelikes. )
No dad! I want dungeon rats! It's what the cool kids are playing!

Actually, it's kinda a pity that you can't rape her when you encounter her later on (she's in the perfect position for that). It's annoying that the game world does everything it can to humiliate you in every manner possible, but you can't even once punch it back.

Anyway, whoever asked for Caves of Qud, you'll get it.
But don't ask it for collection sake please, only if you like to play roguelikes.

Ugh, another spin-off cash-grab by a huge publisher. A party-based strategy game? How mainstream. Someone at Iron Tower Studios is making a lot of money off this one.

I'll bet their next title is going to be a gem-based card collecting 'RPG'.

Obviously just kidding.

I bought AoD as well besides having a shit ton of other rpgs on my playlist currently ongoing. But I was in the mood for something a bit more gritty. Which one should I play first? Does AoD takes place before DR in the timeline of the world?

Yeah, I'll do them. I'm also streaming this on twitch (in russian). Keep in mind that I only got my hands on this game in early friday so I still have to do some testing & stuff. Plenty of it, actually.
