"The game practically asks you to fix itself with console commands."
...Todd Howard? You again?
Todd Howard to Modders : "I am once again asking for you modding fixes"
Never had to once use a console code. Played a huge amount over many years.
Several months after Starfield, it still applies. Even mod-makers gave up with it.
It. Just. Works.
"Shock freeze your lava to sell it" has the same energy like "Just boil some water and freeze it for later, so you can start cooking faster"
This is a fucking hilarious comparison.
Why couldn't this thread be the one necro'd for two years of constant replies.
I didn't even think about that lmao
imagine if you just boiled water like, 6000 times, and eventually you get water that acts like a baloon thats been blown up and deflated a few times
Mpemba effect: sometimes, warmish water can freeze faster than coldish water and sometimes the bigger the diffence the more drastic it is. current hypothis, I find most likely; seeing as how temperature is the average excitement of molecules, you end up with isolated super cooling with localised high amounts on impurities and evaporation.
"I broke a concrete wall; I lost a concrete friend."
Absolute poetry, from one of the best to ever do it.
"This is probably the only game you can get caught playing in the office"
False. Base-level Dwarf Fortress looks more like work is being done.
I remember I played dungeon crawl stone soup while idling away in an internship position.
Never caught me.
Just questioned my choice of spreadsheet color themes.
@@SsethTzeentach It is a bit baffling that any manager would not recognise an ASCII game at this point. Than again, it has maybe been too long since their hayday.
SsethTzeentach People have asked me if I was programming while I was really just playing ASCII roguelikes.
@@ineednochannelyoutube5384 They are doing the same
@@SsethTzeentach i legit did this but went afk.. they had to call IT because the staff on my office thought the pc had a virus.. said IT person.. also didn't knew he was just staring at ascii dcss. and just went and used a previous restore point to fix said "virus"
glad it was a shit run ,-,
"Hey, hey people"
Yeah, that's the stuff, right in the vein there.
Never thought 3 words could make my day that much better!
Aim for the big vein. Yea that one right there.
I tried utilizing lava as a source of money after finding a lava weep just outside of the stiltlands. Unfortunately, it was still early on so I had no means of using grenades to freeze-dry lava waterskins. I considered just buying every glass phial and selling it back filled, but thought that was way too slow and inefficient. Then I realized that I only needed a container to be able to hold its capacity in lava long enough for me to sell it, so I filled up glass jars I bought from the same merchants and sold those back to them full of lava. Happy with my newfound wealth, I proceeded to walk away from the merchant I just sold several jars of lava to only to come to an epiphany. I realized that I wasn't playing any old basic game, I was playing Qud. At that moment I thought to myself, "What's stopping the jars from breaking after I sell them?"
That's the neat part: nothing.
That poor merchant got Midas touched
lol
That's beautiful
Let me guess, the jars broke, the merchant melted, the lava spilled out and you recollected the lava and sold them again? sounds like infinite money.
@@Slimurgical It does seem that way, but unless you go through the efforts of cloning people to sell the lava to, it's an infinite money method but finite merchants.
Eventually, you melt enough of the poor bastards that you run out of people to sell to.
@@Slimurgical until you run out of merchants
The patch notes of this game are amazing, a highlight would be "you can no longer transmutate liquids across dimensions".
Then what's even the point anymore??!?/s
Or something newer: "Boulders are less flammable"
"You can no longer dupe chairs by equipping them as weapons and then sitting on them."
"Folding objects no longer dupes them"
"Star kraken no longer extrude the Grit Gate communications panel."
SsethTzeentach: "Because If I Don't Review A Roguelike That Gives Me Constant Agonizing Testicular Agony Once Every Three Months I Will Literally Die."
Edit: How many days has it been since the devs started melting down about Sseth just throwing thousands of people at them?

This game ain't agonizing.
@@CrossBorderNerds agreed, once you get past like the first 3 levels anyone with an IQ higher than room temperature can dominate this game

“Everything eventually runs out of limbs.”

Yeah, getting mad Dead Space vibes
Incorrect. Regeneration 10 grants immunity to decapitation, and has a 100% chance to regrow limbs the turn after they are dismembered. Add Multiple Arms, Multiple Legs, and Two Headed for added memes. You'll never run out of limbs.
Alternatively, avoid melee enemies with forcefields, phasing out of space, teleporting, or stopping time.

@@r3dp9 Regen 10 is fucking amazing. Get level 10 of a stat booster or stinger, and you can have a high stat or a cool stinger. Get Level 10 Regen, and completely ignore a major threat in the game. Plus you heal HP fast as shit. My most successful character has Regen, stat boosting mutations, and the adrenaline rush. Works great.

I like how in the clip where he's eating his own fungal infections you can see another infection he has in the background, implying he has spent enough time in a fungal infestation to contract multiple parasitic growths.
One of the more fun builds is making a Regenerative Mutant with multiple limbs and getting each of them infected with a different growth. If you don't get a different one on a particular limb, just cut it off and grow it back. Surprisingly tanky!
I love how freaky your mutants can get. You can be a 4 headed egomaniac who disintegrates everyone who gets nearby and is friendly with plants, having a mutation that allows him to summon them. That was just low level and that was brutal to behold because the extra heads shake off the exhaustion from the ego spells

I played for 7 minutes. That was enough.
My first death occurred when I made the extremely poor decision of dropping down several shafts, ending up in an underground factory and an endless series of conveyor belts that led me ever deeper. Eventually I ended up in a huge chamber called *The Cloaca* and was killed by a massive slug called SLOG. Afterwards I learned that if I somehow became friendly with mollusks I could learn a secret recipe from Slog that would turn me into a giant slug like him. I spent the next 15 hours working towards this goal. 10/10 would slug again.

Someone probably beat me to this but I went to the wiki for Nutty Putty Cave. The man who died was *far* from the first person to get stuck but he was stuck in such a way that he couldn’t get out without breaking a ton of bones. A rescue team even tried to get him but they couldn’t with a pulley system, and wouldn’t send anyone in due to the obvious added risk.
In a sort of memorial for him, an agreement was made with the wife to close the site permanently with his body sealed inside. The area above the spot was also blown up with explosives to cause a collapse that would hopefully bury him in the rubble.
Every time I remember this case, I get a sudden jolt of second-hand claustrophobia.

Credit where credit is due, Sseth is objective, to the bone.
Please at least *TRY* to understand the mentality of such sort of people - to them a witty parody review made by a chuddie larping as a Jewish-Nigerian warlord who dared to make fun of the exact same things he - and anyone else who still remembers the Ultima game's Lord British postulate would also try doing for that matter, and which coincidentally caused their autism simulator to finallly generate actual profit for the first time ever since this video went up by sheer word of mouth, is inherently more "problematic" than the fact how their main Discord mod and co-developer has been convicted of raping 6 different people (half of them being literal kids under 14) over the span of past 20 years without any real concern on behalf of CoQ devteam or their games virtual automated queer communism hugbox disguised as a disscusion community.
For real though, True Kin Praetorian is by far the best starting race/class if you have no idea what you're doing. It's so tanky compared to all the others it's ridiculous. Save the awesome Mutant powers for when you actually understand the game's mechanics and threats. True Kin, my friends.
I thought so too. Kin start off with more stat points and get more skill points as well, while the cybernetics system is quite straightforward and you can't gimp yourself on the character creation screen so you can get accustomed with the games core mechanics more intimately. Mutants, on the other hand, they get weird and complicated out of the box. Mutations modify your attributes, scale off from certain attributes, have complex interactions with one another and the drawbacks for certain powers are unclear to those unfamiliar with the more advanced interplay of things. So yeah, Kin for beginner, Mutant for the enlightened lol.
Caves of qud:
-sell lava
-clone merchants
-break the economy
It's even easier than that. Kill the low level Raiders, steal their guns, drop the guns in the Six Day Stilt pit for reputation, exchange the reputation for the Proselityze skill, have at least 20 ego (knollworm helmets, severed faces, and sunglasses help), and "preach" to all of the merchants into giving you free stuff.

Gonna try rn
18:31 After playing this game for a while, I'd like to propose a more efficient way to do this. Instead of cloning the clone, always clone the original one. Then, when you use Proselytize or Domination or Beguile, use it on the main merchant. This will make every clone of that merchant your friend, and you can steal all their inventories without needing to use the ability multiple times just to ransack their belongings. Another thing of note, if you proselytize/dominate/beguile a clone, none of the other merchants would be your friend. Only befriending the original merchant converts the clones, and if you try befriending the original merchant after befriending a clone, that clone would not automatically be befriended anymore.
Another thing to note if you're using dominate or beguile is that the merchants would turn hostile to you if you fail your domination or if you break your beguilement, but only after a screen transition (unless you fail to dominate in which case all the merchants become hostile simultaneously). To combat this, lure the merchant to one side of an empty screen close to the six day stilt, like a parsec nearby since the salt dunes are barren as fuck and start duplicating them. Then, befriend a farm animal or some other small critter (you can find a few in the pens in six day stilt) and bring them to the same place you put all the merchants, but on the other side of the screen. Befriend the main merchant, then go around every merchant and tell them to stay where they are to prevent them from aggroing and killing the critter. Now every time you rob their inventories, you can go befriend the critter before leaving so only the critter becomes angry and you won't aggro the merchants upon return. Of course, this doesn't apply if you proselytize since proselytize never triggers aggro but you need to basically invest everything into charisma to consistently pull off proselytize.
Also, merchants won't restock if they are befriended to you, so always go befriend the critter to unfriend the merchants so they can successfully restock.
19:12 do this if you are truekin, but not if you are a mutant. Sphyx salt injectors don't give you precognition if you're a mutant. You'll have to either select it as a starting mutation or randomly mutate it later on (i recommend just starting out with it since it is stupidly powerful)
Another thing to do is to clone bookkeepers, and befriend then steal all their books (they also have a chance to sell advertisements to the location of legendary merchants or schroedinger's pages. steal those too), then go to the center of Six Day Stilt, where the Mecha Pope is. To the left of the entrance is this girl who you can give the books for for an absurd amount of experience.
EDIT: After fiddling around, I figured out that if you order your beguiled companion to only fight defensively, they won't attack you even after beguilement is broken and they're hostile. Do that instead of the critter thing.
EDIT EDIT: Another thing to note is that though RNG can still be rerolled by precognition, certain things can't be anymore. For example, in the early versions you could use precognition, open up your menu and roll a random mutation, then if you don't like that mutation you can revert precognition and roll to something else. However, now you can't. Mutations, Brain Brine, and Drop of Nectar cooking can't be rerolled with precognition anymore. You'll always get the same mutations, same brain brine results, and same eater's nectar results.
There is a way to combat this. Cooking and eating a Drop of Nectar (you can get these by preserving Eater's Nectar or randomly finding them on Chefs or Kippers in the Six Day Stilt.) will reroll all things you can't reroll with precognition. So now whenever you revert, cook some nectar before trying again for better rng. Also, Neutron Flux is not immune to precog rerolling, so you can still get a shitton of permanent armour by just using precog. Also also, Neutron Flux is incredibly fucking unstable. Dropping it or throwing it will instantly blow up half the screen, but you can transfer it safely inside a chest. It's very funny.
EDIT EDIT EDIT: Metamorphic Polygel doesn't (it is really, really, really unlikely) spawn in merchants in Six Day Stilt, since the area level is too low and the merchants can't spawn high-level items consistently. Therefore, go to Yd Freehold (to the bottom-right of the map, past the mushroom forest and before the deathlands) and go to I think the staircare to the bottom-right of Yd Freehold. There is a plant at the very end called Tillifergaewicz. She is actually the most powerful merchant in the game, and consistently sells metamorphic polygel at like a 20% chance. If you level up beguile/proselytize/domination high enough, you can kidnap the plant and take it back to the salt dunes and do the cloning draught trick and make infinite plants and print polygel at an industrial level. Now you have infinite everything. Have fun winning the game.
thanks i will definitely do this. very based

@@ChadVulpes
This game is a perfect representation of separate the art from the artist
The game is immaculate
But the devs are fucking cringe
@@coleandhisvideos I think the game wouldn't exist if the devs weren't the way they are. It's like Terry Davis, his mental instability allowed him to do what he did.
Devs: "Please don't break our game again."
Players: "Please don't patch our game again."
Sseth: *"FUCK YOU ALL I'M EATING THE SKY"*
He isnt breaking the game he is just useing game mechanics kekw
I think it's a tad bit more accurate to state that sseth worked around the mechanics, and became god so hard that the devs had to invent other gods to counteract being god. Making a sandbox RPG with this much open endedness asks to be broken not because breaking it is something players should do, but because the option is made available. The fear is that Sseth is the omnipotent god of breaking games, finding every crack, and exploiting them all at the same time, and making the experience of being a deity well worth his time. Even the basic lava economy was likely patched out to prevent exploiting on a mass scale, and yet sseth pushed through anyways and laughed at the face of patchwork because, he could.
They kind of are patching out the fun bits. Y-know that thing about using precognition to reroll eater nectar? Yeah they patched that out in the beta. Between that and roleplay mode (non-permadeath which I play because, I want to play the fucking game) precognition is kind of pointless. It's a bit lame but, I get it. The real issue is that these kinds of games are inherently prone to being broken, and you have to allow a bit of it to be fun at all. If you want a lesson in why limiting player choice for balance sucks, look at the history of D&D 4E.
@@TheGreatYukon The question is - are there mods that revert the lame changes and bring back the fun broken stuff? Because that's literally the only reason I would have to play the game.
