    Love procedurally generated stuff and this was super interesting to learn about.

    To make it simple, history generation in CoQ is like this. Every time you start new game, RNG seed generates new set of 5 Sultans, which names would be mentioned in description of some objects in the world. 🎉 Besides we have a static worldmap with static cities, and procedural generated dungeons.

    I once found a fresh water weep in a dungeon that the Elder told me about... I then got cocky and died in the next dungeon.

    This is one of my favorite roguelikes. However, the procedurally generated lore feels like MadLibs to me and often just sounds like nonsense.

      @@jth4242 Everything else said in the video, probably. Water is a currency so trading stuff almost always matter. A bunch of factions that fight and have different relations. The ability to sell secrets as information so exploration gets more rewards. And also timeclones.

      In a post-apocalyptic world full of genetic and cybernetic "mishaps," the gradual devolution of information and rhetoric into a nonsensical hodge podge sorta makes sense, though.

    What a disjointed, uninspired and visually ugly game... I'd play Ultima III on my C64 emulator if I wanted something this primitive.
