Does this game have a dead end at some point if you don't do something or if you do something? Like being locked forever in a dungeon? Or am I confusing it with something else?

No, you're not wrong. If you go and fight the end boss without being prepared for that fight, you'll end up in an unwinnable position.

Getting to that end boss fight is a task in and of itself, and knowing what to do (and when) in order to win is another task.

But let's see if Darth Roxor can get there without screwing things up...personally I think he's fucked - but that's what old savegames are for.

Not mine, but I've stumbled upon this a number of times.

i am so paranoid about dead-ends in old rpgs that i always keep a walkthrough open and scan it for lines such as 'DO NOT DO THIS!!!!'

Daggerfall: the Instagram/Dressup/Tits RPG
I decided to fire up Daggerfall again. Created a male character, finished the first dungeon, decided to spice things up a little bit.
Created a female char with a single goal - to collect all kinds of clothes and take selfies, while playing the game without shirts/body armor, because everyone loves tits.

Do I look fat in dis dress?

Dis one is sooo tropey, paging Sarkeesian, me feel oppressed!

Dis one isn't bad, but it looks like it was designed for a dwarf. MEH!

Dis and ze yellow one are kinda simple, do I look poor in dese?

Oboi, I feel I'll have tons of fun larping a modern woman.

Real winners don't play games, where you need to jump into developer's head, to play the game and finish them without getting stuck.

Thinking about playing Eye of the Beholder now. Should I?

Have you played Stonekeep?

jesus christ this endgame is so shit

The main quest objectives weren't among the best, either. IIRC they went something like this:

1. Find the 4 magic ingredients for a potion to heal the King.
2. Find the 4 artifacts that unlocks the magical shroud around the King.
3. Find the 4 artifacts that unlocks the magical shroud around the magical shroud around the King.

Still, one of my favorite RPGs.

Have you played Stonekeep?

Yah, long ago. Don't feel like going back to it.

Is that retholical question?

Thinking about playing Eye of the Beholder now. Should I?

Yes. It is one of the games that have the proper dungeon-crawling experience.

I must play it too. It does have the option of exporting the party from the earlier part to next one.

 

[Baron Dupek]

does it look like one

Yes.
I did my EotB1->EotB2 run month ago, wanted to do EotB3 but there is no working automapping software. Yes, I totally would beat it.

 

[FeelTheRads]

Winners don't use automaps.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

The only reason I would not say "Play EotB" is because there's little to be gained by posting screenshots of it, at least the first one. Otherwise, go nuts.

There are no dead ends in EotB1 (though you may screw yourself over if you use your Dwarven Keys foolishly) but there's a big one in EotB2 and a couple of more in EotB3. Instead of consulting walkthroughs, just ask us what they are.

And no one will think less of you if you skip EotB3. If you thought LoL was horribly designed, check out EotB3.

with great kicking comes great responsibility.

This looks fucking great. What's that video you spoke of?

Maybe I'm wrong, but I see a lot of pain behind those eyes:

Is pixel-hunting hidden walls part of that proper experience ?

These guys are p much scrublords.

they move around all slow and try to stomp you which is easy as fug to evade

do enough damage

and they get pissed off!

And even call in mook backup.

which can even get dangerous when you get frozen in the middle of an angry mob

but eventually they get pissed off again after enough damage is dealt

MAXIMUM BROFIST

It's time for this dance to end.

I've played SS before, but this is the first time I killed the end boss. All thanks to the prototype gun.

Please, secret buttons and such are plain to see in EOB1. It's not until EOB3 that they actually get kinda hard to spot.
