02:16:26 ER: whatever, let's beat up carina!
02:23:52 ER: decided to start a replay of Alpha Protocol
02:24:03 ER: it's a better game than it seems to be, I guess?
02:27:48 ER: the mechanics don't feel super polished but they DO work, and it's in service to a more ambitious RPG than you tend to see

02:34:03 MidJag:
Devastator up for any more stone soup>
02:37:27 Devastator: just lemme finish this video first.
02:38:17 MidJag: Cool, I was gonnna start with any troll bersker that run had potential I was just fucking dumb
02:39:42 MidJag: I can do a differnt build if you'd prefer?
02:46:35 MJ has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:42:30 ER_ has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:43:36 ER_: didn't notice I disconnected
03:43:39 Devastator:
MJ's streaming some Stone Soup.
03:43:44 ER_: anyways ye seen the moon? :3
03:43:51 Devastator: No, the sun's still up here.
03:44:19 Devastator:
ER's just a werewolf. ;-p
03:44:37 Devastator: yeah, no, sun's up and it's been cloudy.
03:45:23 ER has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
03:45:39 Devastator: well, you powered through it.
03:46:15 Devastator: well I think you can dive back in the main dungeon.
03:47:23 Devastator: sheesh, halfway to level 15.
03:48:28 Devastator: I mean.. yeah, you can throw curare darts, I suppose.
03:48:32 Devastator: I thought those required a blowgun.
03:49:16 Devastator: Roguelike teleport rules.
03:49:20 Devastator: teleport the enemies, not yourself. ;-p
03:50:05 Devastator: apparently he was so fucked. ;-p
03:50:10 Devastator: but yeah, that was hellish.
03:50:35 Devastator: I've seen teleport self fail before, but that was spectacular.
03:51:06 Devastator: No, no pixies anymore.
03:53:25 Devastator: I didn't even know those existed.
03:54:37 Devastator: pixies are not slow but are supid fragile.
03:54:49 Devastator: like 'you start with 4 HP fragile'
03:55:46 Devastator: well there's always the magic god of magic.
03:57:23 ER_: magic magic is magic magic's magic
03:57:25 Devastator: yeah, you gotta watch those extra slow moves.
03:57:31 Devastator: they're pretty nasty.
03:57:42 Devastator: and yeah, you probably want some kinda weapon.
03:57:54 Devastator: like even a dagger or something.
03:58:45 Devastator: I'm sure you'll find some haste boots.
03:59:28 Devastator: oh man, if you find haste naga barding..
03:59:37 Devastator: you musta done something right in a past life.
04:00:08 Devastator: I think I played a bunch of centaur games. Not sure I ever found a centaur barding in one of them.
04:00:51 Devastator: well, it's poisoned so it'll die on it's owned eventually.
04:01:05 Devastator: hey, you can wear body armour. But isn't spell failure still a thing?
04:01:41 Devastator: oh that does seem nice.
04:02:42 Devastator: anyway, any chance of the bigger spells? That seems like a low MP total for level 4.
04:03:37 Devastator: right, spellcasting skill gives bonus MP.
04:05:03 Devastator: ..might have trouble finding branches.
04:05:45 Devastator: well you're more stealthy when you aren't running up to enemies and whacking them. ;-p
04:07:15 Devastator: the damage does go up.
04:07:26 Devastator: you can fly so those darts are yours.
04:07:41 Devastator: forget you aren't a troll? ;-p
04:08:19 Devastator: antyhing else you feel like?
04:08:32 Devastator: so it's the replacement for centaur?
04:08:43 Devastator: but you know what they do with races.
04:09:00 Devastator: well, could change your name to Trence and play Draconian.
04:09:42 Devastator: then something else next.
04:10:20 Devastator: well, the elements are a big dieroll.
04:10:25 Devastator: to see if you got the right one.
04:11:04 Devastator: Have you ever won this?
04:11:19 Devastator: this is some first room.
04:11:50 Devastator: you'll be a sky dragon, won't you? ;-p
04:12:02 Devastator: ..this is some first level.
04:13:07 Devastator: well that kobold has a sling.
04:13:10 Devastator: so you're getting them back.
04:13:22 Devastator: This is impressive.
04:13:29 Devastator: pick different stairs next time.
04:13:53 Devastator: it'll be fine if you survive.
04:13:59 Devastator: more Xp than normal. ;-p
04:15:29 Devastator: yeah, but you have more space.
04:18:07 Devastator: I hate how random he feels. He's weak enough to go down like that.
04:18:14 Devastator: yes, draconians can't wear much.
04:18:29 Devastator: robes, dragon scales, cloaks, and soft hats.
04:19:29 Devastator: what I remember was you couldn't fit into it except for robes.
04:19:40 Devastator: now it's nothing, eh?
04:19:46 Devastator: oh well, maybe you get more AC when levelling.
04:20:42 Devastator: did you level armour? ;-p
04:20:56 Devastator: I was tempted into suggesting fighter draconian, because that's more Trence's style.
04:21:28 Devastator: welp, dodging it is.
04:22:18 Devastator: It seems a lot more consistant, but less satisfying.
04:22:33 Devastator: very pro-magic, though, with no spell slots.
04:25:15 Devastator: two branches on the same level.
04:25:17 Devastator: no, that's new to me.
04:25:29 Devastator: well, lets hope the cock pauses.
04:25:57 Devastator: mummies don't die easy to sand?
04:26:34 Devastator: non-elemental magic.
04:29:20 Devastator: well you lived, but no loot!
04:29:31 Devastator: well it doesn't stop when you heal.
04:30:45 Devastator: 3 scrolls of enchant armour, heh.
04:33:35 Devastator: ooh, crystal spear.
04:33:39 Devastator: now that's a bitchin' spell.
04:33:54 Devastator: also yay, weapon! ;-p
04:35:27 Devastator: next char should be a fighter.
04:35:33 Devastator: so you can continue to find no armour.
04:36:06 Devastator: thought those rocks were a ring.
04:37:24 Devastator: they'd only get in the way of your bright purple scales. ;-p
04:38:58 Devastator: he likes it when you do stupid stuff.
04:39:02 Devastator: or when you almost die.
04:39:33 Devastator: you ever tried him? He's a fun character.
04:39:59 Devastator: You can get some pretty nice stuff.
04:40:14 Devastator: admittedly, sometimes he teleports you around a level trying to land you in a room like the one that killed trollboy.
04:40:36 Devastator: and he wants you to keep exploring instead of backtracking.
04:42:13 Devastator: He's not really as random as people say.
04:43:22 Devastator: shoulda kept walking! But damn.
04:43:56 Devastator: yeah, but you know how same-speed walking works. Sometimes you get an extra space, but the other monster will catch up.
04:44:06 Devastator: something that uses weapons. ;-p
04:44:21 Devastator: could be ill-suited for it.
04:44:24 Devastator: that'd make it more amusing.
04:45:03 Devastator: some kind of fighter from something that's not good for it.
04:45:23 Devastator: nah no worries, this is fine.
04:48:19 Devastator: yeah, sometimes you don't find them until orc town.
04:50:43 Devastator: Didn't you agree to that?
04:51:19 Devastator: if you ever leave Xom there are few punishments.
04:51:36 Devastator: he mostly just forgets about you.
04:53:24 Devastator: +3 trident of venom!
04:53:46 Devastator: from blork the orc.
04:54:43 Devastator: gotta roll with the punches.
04:54:52 Devastator: and make sure you id cure potions.
04:56:53 Devastator: that triden really kicks ass.
04:57:18 Devastator: piety progress is entirely random.
04:57:37 Devastator: but yeah, when you're beloved you have like a really good chance of being lifesaved.
04:57:48 Devastator: and enchant weapon.
04:57:51 Devastator: can it go up another plus?
04:58:16 Devastator: Xom gave you three random positive mutations.
05:01:11 Devastator: ..did Xom fireball the crowd?
05:01:34 Devastator: yeah, he said Ka Boom
05:03:21 Devastator: don't forget your +4 throwing spears.
05:03:24 Devastator: and that they can use them back.
05:04:07 Devastator: Oh, that teleport thing was also classic Xom, looking to land you in trouble.
05:04:45 Devastator: looks as sick as possible? Did they cap poison?
05:05:38 Devastator: yup, but you're on 'fovored toy' so you should be in the gift zone instead of the curse zone now.
05:05:54 Devastator: oh, also, Xom likes it if you confuse people.
05:06:11 Devastator: someone kills themselves by walking into deep water? Go you.
05:06:36 Devastator: What are the degen potions are for?
05:06:42 Devastator: +4 ring of evasoin!
05:06:47 Devastator: oh fuck, I hate her.
05:06:59 Devastator: just wondering why you're carrying them.
05:07:52 Devastator: also, what you got as rings?
05:08:16 Devastator: oop, +1 con and regeneration.
05:08:22 Devastator: Usually. Sometimes he hates you and that goes away.
05:10:15 Devastator: did Xom just give you a bundle of summons?
05:12:21 Devastator: yeah, Xom's been very generous.
05:13:18 Devastator: he's not usually this good, but enjoy it while it's happening.
05:14:16 Devastator: what the latency is?
05:14:23 Devastator: seems to be no more than ten or so seconds.
05:14:38 Devastator: stop at the next stairs and I'll say when you go down.
05:16:25 Devastator: ring randarts are usually pretty good stuff.
05:16:52 Devastator: hah, it's a ring of fire, like your ring of fire, with 4 dex.
05:17:21 Devastator: yeah, this is a new vault for me.
05:19:01 Devastator: 4 more dex 9 MP? Not bad.
05:19:04 Devastator: do you do any spells?
05:21:18 Devastator: although that's a lovely ring if you were a hybrid caster.
05:21:23 Devastator: so just the gold then.
05:21:40 Devastator: Wizardry's great when you have low spell levels.
05:23:34 Devastator: Xom taketh sometimes.
05:23:58 Devastator: yes he does look for big monsters to drop you next to.
05:24:15 Devastator: Cold Hammer, right.
05:24:32 Devastator: also that trident is ridiculous.
05:24:35 Devastator: isn't that what you said?
05:25:51 Devastator: You can always renounce Xom.
05:26:53 Devastator: plaything's on the negative side.
05:29:45 Devastator: ooh 'beloved toy' is like right at the top.
05:30:14 Devastator: some kinda berzerker.
05:30:45 Devastator: no, special plaything is really bad.
05:31:05 Devastator: this guy's got a lotta HP.
05:31:37 Devastator: is your evasion like super good or something?
05:31:53 Devastator: no, it's 18 AC and 20 evasion.
05:31:58 Devastator: no wonder you don't take much.
05:32:21 Devastator: and you have 9 points in shielding.
05:32:32 Devastator: don't usually have both of them that high.
05:32:35 Devastator: one or the other, sure, but both?
05:33:30 Devastator: you can just bash an oklob plant down no worries?
05:35:42 Devastator: "oh cool, I'm invisible."
05:35:51 Devastator: Another happy customer of the Xom Experience.
05:36:48 Devastator: man, I mean, these creatures just die.
05:37:24 Devastator: yeah, lemme reload the stream.
05:37:44 Devastator: it was a bit behind.
05:41:45 Devastator: I loaded it and have been watching.
05:41:56 Devastator: Just haven't said much as you've got a proper murder machine.
05:42:53 Devastator: actually, I remember potions of degen were good for that poison spell that blew up potions into fog clouds.
05:43:37 Devastator: aww. That was a fun spell.
05:43:47 Devastator: not amazing, but fun.
05:45:26 Devastator: I think that's the potion spell.
05:45:33 Devastator: in the first book you looked at.
05:46:42 Devastator: oh man a randart lajatang?
05:48:13 Devastator: yeah, just wondering. You got the bucks?
05:49:28 Devastator: venom, + dex, see invisible.
05:49:38 Devastator: a direct upgrade, hah.
05:49:57 Devastator: man, that shield ring is also broken.
05:51:07 Devastator: I thought you had a ring that gave you 9 points of shielding.
05:51:38 Devastator: ..you can mutate to have shields? Damn.
05:52:05 Devastator: also you're still wearing boots and have cloven hooves.
05:53:33 Devastator: is that a cloak on the last level?
05:54:26 Devastator: well you probably have more HP than those around you.
05:54:54 Devastator: scroll of fear too.
05:55:59 Devastator: and no potion heal, heh.
05:56:20 Devastator: Xom might lifesave you.
05:56:59 Devastator: yeah, got a bit too cocky there.
05:57:37 Devastator: you're too bloody fragile to ever get cocky.
05:59:04 Devastator: you can wear armour.
05:59:37 Devastator: I think I'll get the new version, the skill training screen looks so much more useful than a menu.
06:00:12 Devastator: They've been through like four iterations of how xp works.
06:00:20 Devastator: also, you can wear armour.
06:00:45 Devastator: no, you can't wear boots actually.
06:00:54 Devastator: yeah, that was a huge buff.
06:01:12 Devastator: tell you what, I'll try the next game, ok?
06:01:58 Devastator: 19 damage, -4 HP. ;-p
06:02:09 Devastator: it's making me want to play it again.
06:03:45 Devastator: also the download screenshot shows a food ration.
06:04:56 Devastator: been relatively normal so far.
06:05:50 Devastator: Xom's interesting. Not exactly the power choice, but entertaining.
06:07:46 Devastator: nah, that's fine, just tempted to play.
06:07:56 Devastator: and yeah, tis the Tengu Experience.
06:08:30 Devastator: should stop walking past plain leather armour.
06:08:40 Devastator: shouldn't hurt your spells and it's like 2 more AC.
06:09:26 Devastator: oh sorry, those are robes.
06:11:36 Devastator: be glad you don't have the old style of training.
06:11:45 Devastator: if you wanted to, say, train block, you had to let people try to hit you.
06:11:56 Devastator: There were several different systems.
06:12:08 Devastator: yes. You had two XP systems.
06:12:36 Devastator: you exercised skills, and then when you earned XP it got assigned to those skills by the percentages of each one earned in them.
06:14:55 Devastator: "How dare I be expected to learn"
06:16:52 Devastator: Told ya they were too fragile to ever get cocky!
06:19:49 Devastator: well you made it to XL 2.
06:19:57 Devastator: casting zap spells?
06:20:04 Devastator: yeah, but they die like orc wizards.
06:21:23 Devastator: what boosts your spell's to hit?
06:21:46 Devastator: also you have swiftness spell.
06:22:20 Devastator: hah, the helpfile lists a race you don't have.
06:22:24 Devastator: that doesn't exist.
06:23:18 Devastator: I'm just glad they didn't cut humans yet. ;-p
06:23:41 Devastator: ugh, it slows after expires.
06:23:57 Devastator: makes it much worse.
06:24:28 Devastator: I'll play a Tengu Fighter. ;-p
06:24:56 Devastator: Yeah, they have a free melee attack
06:25:06 Devastator: a good one. Not the match of troll claws but good.
06:25:27 Devastator: it's also a bonus one that stacks with weapons.
06:25:56 Devastator: a peck and a talon claw.
06:26:15 Devastator: so they can hit really really hard, but they're super fragile.
06:26:20 Devastator: it's automatic and based off unarmed.
06:27:50 Devastator: and you are really good at it.
06:27:58 MJ has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
06:28:05 MidJag: Damn, that almost was great
06:28:18 MidJag: But wow Xom was hilarious
06:28:38 MidJag: Just trying to manage the amount of chaos he causes was hilarious
06:28:45 Devastator: well I'll try a quickie.
06:28:49 Devastator: will probably die quick.
06:29:21 Devastator: that's a big window.
06:29:32 Devastator: Aight. What's the name of Harvey Birdman's pet?
06:29:52 MidJag: I've actually never seen that movie
06:30:54 MidJag: My twin brother keeps trying to get me to see it
06:31:06 ER_: I've found a comic that I like
06:31:22 ER_: and not even for the usual reasons I like things!~
06:32:20 ER_: it's a black and white comic about a pair of demons trying to tempt people into sin, set during tulipmania
06:32:29 ER_: entertaining history and stuff
06:32:39 MidJag: That sounds really fun actually
06:33:13 Devastator: fired it up, started with 14 HP, and converted at a random altar.
06:33:29 Devastator: that does sound cool.
06:33:41 MidJag: Apperently they changed Okawru to be like a duel god
06:33:46 MidJag: Sounds kinda awesome actually
06:34:46 MJ has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:35:25 Devastator: No. I'll go fire it up.
06:35:57 MidJag: I like the art style
ER, reminds me of like wood cuts
06:35:58 Devastator: just beat two endoplasms with the Heroism skill. Each one could two shot me.
06:40:11 Devastator: so can't really fit properly.
06:41:59 MidJag:
dev you can just autoexplore
06:46:13 MidJag: Yeah, I would just get like a throwing dart or a sling or something
06:48:01 MidJag: you can set skill targets
06:48:13 MidJag: Just go to the skill screen mMM and then press the equal sign
06:48:23 MidJag: And then click on the right skill
06:49:25 MidJag: But yeah, skill targets are awersome
06:49:32 MidJag: Means you don't need to babysit your skills
06:50:17 MidJag: Tree is super tanky but can't teleport
06:51:08 MidJag: Your also torment immmune for reasons I'e never figured out
06:52:58 MidJag: Yeah, the chasms have a chance of fallling
06:53:20 MidJag: But you can also get random chasmed still
06:53:36 MidJag: I don't think you can poision people
06:54:45 MidJag: I never really used the goody two shoes gods
06:55:03 MidJag: Mostly because I always forgot about their rules and ended up excominicated
06:57:23 MidJag: Yeah, some of the enemies seem to be classics
07:00:43 MidJag: Yeah, but your failure rate is rather high
07:01:19 MidJag: But yeah, you still have to learn spells, you just don't need to carry the books around .
07:01:58 MidJag: They stopped having the ghosts waner around
07:03:24 MidJag: Well, I'm gonna go to bed.
07:22:05 Devastator: I'm also seeing a heavy presence of birds in that comic.
07:26:48 Devastator: well, assuming that the first one at least isn't just another demon. ;-p
07:28:08 ER_: the crow and the rooster are both just animals
07:28:22 ER_: though it is indicated that they're as immortal as their masters
07:28:29 Devastator: That 'just' word is doing some heavy lifting.
07:28:36 ER_: but devils can apparently just talk to animals
07:28:44 Devastator: that part makes sense.
07:30:09 ER_: the dastardly rooster is cute
