Rock Paper Shotgun wrote to me today - we're scheduling an interview for a feature on Kaiju Combat in the near future. @Essence - you make me...
Second on Snow Crash! Loved that book. I've just recently read The Name of the Wind and it's sequel - The Wise Man's Fear. Astoundingly good,...
Pick me! I've quite enjoyed DCU - interestingly, the only MMOs that have ever held my attention are the superhero ones...
Although I absolutely don't have the time to do this, I may have accidentally started building a prototype of that concept. By accident! And it...
Oh man, how hot would it be if, after killing Dredmor, the next Dredmor had the same stats & skills as the hero you last won with? AWESOME.
It reduces exotic damage by 50%, and regular damage by 75% - but that's often enough to make an attack deal no damage.
To be a Lord, you just need a parcel land which you use to generate income for yourself. Obviously the dungeon itself is Dredmor's land! Simple.
Indeed, brittle buffs only decrement when you take damage. High armor value (getting "blocks" all the time) is the best way to keep those buffs...
Almost every one of my characters hordes anti-magic traps. It only takes 2:trap_level: to pick them up, and they are priceless later on. Other...
Hello! You might know me as the guy who writes intro strategy guides for DoD. But did you know that, in my day job, I'm actually a game...
This happened to me the other day as well. I crafted 2 of an item, and they stacked together. Caused me a moment of panic! Now actually, I'd...
If you honestly like Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, you might enjoy Naked Lunch. It's not "accurate" to the book - it is, rather, a movie about...
Recently I've been playing Vampire builds. The big problem with vamp builds is the first level or 2, when you have no method of healing at all...
Serious Sam 2 is EPIC FUN. There are several games in that bundle I am not familiar with - so I can't give a certain assessment of their quality....
In my experience the problem comes from enemy attack animations. I'd like to turn those off sometimes, or have them auto-turnoff when there are a...
I actually like this a bunch - because it reduces your total # of burned-out wands available for new wands. Heck, even wandX + burned-out-wand =...
That sounds hot! Unlock all those recipes at level 3, perhaps. Are mana potions the right thing to recharge wands? Seems like you'd have to...
I was hoping that your crafting skill would limit the number of crusts you could put on an item. So 8:smithing: means you can put up to 8 crusts...
The main use of Lure is to give a group of monsters -2:armor_asorb: - which (usually) means you'll deal 2 more damage to them with every hit....
That's not stupid at all - in fact, being cognizant of ripple effects like that is a key part of good design. In my original post, I...
