Game News Grimoire Version 2 is actually out

[Grunker]

Is there any kind of noob guide for this game? It's literally the first blobber that's turn based I'm ever going to play. Might as well play the best, right?

Start with World of Xeen, MM7 or Wizardry 8.

 

[Lady_Error]

Since Grimoire was inspired by Wizardry 7 the most and has many of the same systems, that could be the only alternative.

Why is that retarded little fuck Zepo Zep still posting here? He claimed the game was a scam and was never coming out, then that it was a buggy mess that would never get patched, then that because it had no manual it was even worse...
One by one ALL of his stupid comments and jealousy fueled angst have been proven wrong yet he still hangs around Grimoire threads throwing his bullshit to anything and everyone
I have to agree that the moderators of this forum should give Mr Blakemore the authority to ban idiots like him from posting in Grimoire threads, its one thing to have some fun a a little trolling just to spice things up... hell Mr Blakemore engages in enough of that himself but plain old hateful comments are not only boring but are like white noise after a while

Cleve needs a persistent but impotent troll to pummel to bring forth true thread incline. Zep is a bit predictable but will have to do until a worthy arch nemesis turns up.

 

[Bohr]

It's a little known fact that Zep unfortunately grew tired of Grimoire and Cleve's threads and moved on with his life

I don't even care about your shitty game anymore...but you continue to drag my name into it.


Zep--

 

[Zep Zepo]

It's pretty easy to trigger Cleve.

One or two sentences, or a shit rating.

Then you clowns get to read his 4 paragraph rants and all circle jerk with each other.

You should be thanking me.

Why thank you, Zep, for acting both as circus ringmaster and head clown.

Zep--

Really? But he keeps talking, again and again and again. His heart isn't even in it, it's all low-effort going through the motions, like a guy who's been pissing on the stairs to the restaurant for years and just is on autopilot by now.

 

[Iskramor]

so there's no excuse not to get it now

Except it's only available for "sale" from reptilians.

I'll buy it full price from GOG if it ever comes there, not giving a cent to Steam.

I'm in the same boat to be honest. Never played an old-school blobber. I just got Inclinoire and I'm getting my ass whopped left and right. The spells of the magic classes are always resisted and even the weapons don't penetrate shit most of the time, in fact I have discovered that if I remove the starting weapons I increase the chance of hitting with my warrior, berseker and ranger; of course that's not what you want to do long term because weapon skills improve with use. Anyway, I was close to defeat the moustached rude chaps in Aquavia but then the asshole whistled and more appeared, so I'm still working on that, the plan is to grind a few lowly mobs and level up before facing them again. The most important thing is that I'm having fun, the game oozes charm from every pixel.

Then you're ahead of 99% of the people who start playing Grimoire. It's not Pillars of Eternity and you can have really shitty party builds and awesome party builds.

Is it normal to get pretty much all my spells resisted at the beginning? or was it my fault for not distribuiting points accurately at the beginning with my magic classes? maybe I'm missing something, what's the skill that influences your chance to hit with spells? Also, does the chance to hit change depending on the level of the spell (represented by those dices) I choose to cast?

 

[Lady_Error]

Depending on the magic school that class uses, the name of the magic skill can be different. It's always among the mental skills and should be highlighted in pink:

• Alchemistry The magical study of the four elements of fire, air, water and earth.

(06:Assassin,Berserker,Metalsmith,Ranger,Thaumaturge,Thief)

• Litany The holy study of divine prayers that lead to power and favour with the gods.

(02:Cleric,Templar)

• Necromancy Communication with the spirits of the dead and demons to acquire occult secrets.

(01:Necromancer)

• Sorcery The magical art of memorizing and casting spells.

(06:Bard,Jester,Pirate,Sage,Warrior,Wizard)

• Arcanum The study of the most powerful, dangerous and arcane magic secrets and spells.

(06:Bard,Cleric,Necromancer,Sage,Thaumaturge,Wizard)

http://grimoire.wiki/index.php/Skills#Mental_skills_.2815.29

The amount of points in that skill, the power level of the spell and the attributes/resistances of the monster determine whether you hit with a spell.

 

[Agame]

Brand new spell casters are pretty terrible, but you notice a difference as they level up. As mentioned above the characters primary casting skill is highlighted in pink so just make sure to pump points into that.

Version 2.0.0.10 Up, Manual SOON!
JANUARY 6 - GOLDEN ERA GAMES
Have put an updated build on Steam that fixes a possible glitch in inventory management and a couple changes to configuration to protect users from screwing up their own configuration file so badly they have to delete it to get the default.

You should not be able to set a screen mode or scaling in configuration unless fullscreen mode is first set to ON. Otherwise both these values will remain at defaults for a windowed mode. I suspect this might solve some problems where users toy with their configuration file and set something like a windowed mode with scaling and a different screen resolution on.

Working on the manual every day, should be out by this Friday. Almost all Grimoire milestones are due next Friday and this one is no different. The manual is bound to come out by next Friday.

Can you change the main screen background image, or does it load up a different one randomly? (Didnt see the cool new ones, yet)

This game will never, ever be offered anywhere for $12.95 before the year 2025. That's a promise.

I am considering an opening discount. It is highly recommended by Steam. After that, it will go to full price and stay there for the next 8 years.

He was calculating in neanderthal years, which is different obviously
