The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk - parodic fantasy tactical RPG - now with Back to the Futon DLC

[Gregz]

Whisper please kindly go fuck off somewhere else.

Arguing about the perfect way to play a game is so fucking cringe...especially a game like this.

You know games are for fun right?

I am mid-game, I just cleaned up the goblin-announcer. I am NOT doing 100+ damage. The +4 DMG bug makes some differences when it is available from the first floor.

Gratz on killing goblin on easy mode. I finished on hardest (Gzor Nightmare) like 2-3 weaks ago.

I do at most 1 battle a day. Congratulations on having a lot more time on your hands than I do, or just being dedicated to one game at a time I guess.
As for finishing the game in Gzor Nightmare mode... it is totally worthless if you did not Ironman it. With enough savescumming, I could finish pretty much any game any difficulty.

 

[Desiderius]

Don't know what brand of Slav you are, but you can't be Serbs, my Serb friends have very convoluted and efficient ways to insult someone, a skill that sadly I don't have.

In WW2 we fought Germans (respect, good warriors, may they reach Valhalla) while you frenchies just ran away, screaming. Fcking weaklings. You will never please Crom.

You cant even deal with mudslim Allah Akbar cryers now. Killed good teacher, just out of hate. Heard in news.

You fought more Romanians than Germans, who lets face it are pretty much fuck-ups, and by you of course I mean your endless miles and mires and merciless cold.

Oh, and you're talking about a game made by the French.

I saved between battles and replayed full battle on wipes.
Nice try, though.

And since you play on easy and at like 1/3 of game yet (goblin boss battle) your insight on game mechanics is very valuable. Should have told this earlier. I am out.

I know, right.
I just dont like fuckers. They surrended in WW2, leaving us to fight (like one guy who betray his bros and runs first from fight). And now they promote Allahu Akbar, that spreads to other regions, so harming other countries.

This is known as "not Ironman" .

So, bottom-line :
- Whisper puts all his eggs in the same basket by giving all grenades to the rogue, and call it the only worthwhile strategy, though possibly it is at end game,
- Apparently drinks & (quality) foods apparently don't scale up in end-game, as they give a flat bonus. Early game they really make the difference, which Whisper apparently missed,
- I guess the end game/ not end-game dichotomy explains why CHA is useless to me. When you have high level characters, allocating all the points needed to AGI is going to take let's say only 20% of your available points, whereas early game or mid game it would eat up though a significant amount of points,
- And similarly, wounds are probably more irrelevant at high level than they are at low level, given from what I see they give a flat debuff,
- OK, CHA is still dump for the Elf I ll grant Whisper this point,

All in all, Whisper was talking about the end game, I am talking about let's say the mid-game - at which point this was still true, though from the experience of our very patriotic Russian here it breaks by end-game.

So know you know how we feel about 1918. Also, keep in mind that when we surrendered, YOU were allied with Germany . Technically, we left the Commonwealth to fight alone the Germans and the Italians.
Our latest Allahu Akbar came from Russia.

Ironman is not working for this game yet. You cant play Ironman.


Another nice try, though.

Did not know. I thought the button was greyed out because it was not authorized for first run.
I actually like to Ironman my games, but I never combine Ironman + hardest difficulty.

I actually died on the last floor of TOEE in my Ironman run. Due to this, never finished TOEE

 

[Whisper]

Our latest Allahu Akbar came from Russia.

Yes, you invite all our terrorists and hide them from our laws. We would deal with them, if you had sent them back.

 

[ValeVelKal]

Yes, you invite all our terrorists and hide them from our laws. They would be dead (good riddance) if you just sent them out.

Well, as you know, they are escaping the quasi-shariah regime that is approved by Moscow, so WHO KNEW some of these would also be terrorists. Hopefully this madness will stop, but I doubt it.
In any case, this strays too far away from RPG, so I'll stop that.

 

[ValeVelKal]

My point stands, I am only impressed by people who Ironman a game, either self imposed challenged or as allowed by the game. Else, sorry, even loading at the beginning of a battle (as I do actually) does not cut it.

Tinman is the way to go.

Getting more and more incline for that sci fi game they are making.

Is there more info about this anywhere?

this one maybe: Les naufragés d'ythaq?

"Les naufragés d'ythaq"
Type of game : Tactical RPG

Release date : TBD

Platforms : PC

Number of players : 1 to 8 (local or online multiplayer)

In « Les naufragés d’Ythaq », human beings travel through space and have colonized many worlds. When the White Star Line's space cruiser, the "Comet's Tail", crashes on a mysterious planet, our heroes are thrown into a ruthless survival among the strange inhabitants of Ythaq.

The young and bold astronavigator Granite Welgoat, the poetic technician Narvath Bodissey and the beautiful but materialistic Callista of Saramore will have to understand the rules of Ythaq if they want to survive and leave that strange planet...

It's adapted from a (French) comic book. I think I've been seeing this comic book series in libraries for years, but I don't think I've ever opened one.

Apparently they got some money from the EU (or French gov, it's not really clear) for this project back in 2015: https://relais-culture-europe.eu/fr/projet/les-naufrages-dythaq-le-jeu.

I'm playing at the highest difficulty level and got stuck on the optional boss just before the end. Kind of stumped with that guy. I guess I could use the reset potions to optimize builds around surviving that fight, but that kind of feels cheap.

Spoiler

I can get him down to 1/3 HP before skeletons overwhelm the party, probably should not have stopped pumping agility for DODGE as DODGE trumps almost everything. Can't seem to find a balance between dealing damage to him, killing the fucking skeleton priests which can heal him and bogging down the trash skeletons. Is my assumption that the skeleton reinforcements keep coming infinitely and that this is a race against time correct? Otherwise I would go for an endurance approach (unless the number of waves is something retarded like 99).

Is there some way to reduce his protection besides acid bombs? I tried those but unfortunately it seems they don't stack, if I could get it low enough I think I could kill him before the second skeleton priest wave.

[/spoiler]

Yeah, it's a fun encounter.
I failed on my first attempt and thought about changing specs for a bit of extra damage too.
But I got him next try, when I almost completely ignored the adds (the only one I killed was the skeleton-wizard in the first wave) and focused on burning the boss down.
I placed him near the left middle-column, which provided some cover against all adds waves.
And I had to sacrifice all my melee guys by leaving them within the 2nd huge-ass AOE just so they could deal an extra turn worth of damage.

The things this game made me do for victory, - my Dwarf gave his life so the Elf could get a kill shot.

 

[Cleric of Asmodeus]

I feel like the Ogre door busting feats really lend themselves to respeccing eventually so I don’t really see it as like a cheat or difficulty option external to the game. Just another tool

 

[Cleric of Asmodeus]

The battle with the three lichs and bunch of hell knights is kicking my butt

Fuck it, copped it on GOG. Remember seeing it release on Steam's front page and the initial art style (not even averse to a cartoon style on its own) gave me such a Clash of Clans mobile vibe I immediately considered it shovelware. Genuinely surprised with how positive the reception in here has been so screw it, hopefully I can get around to it sooner than later.

The combat and encounter design is genuinely great. The comedy wasn't my thing, though, and I think there's nothing more awful than slogging through bad comedy.

If you like the jokes though you'll probably have a great time. I'm hoping they maybe make something more serious next time.

I found the writing and VA excellent.
