03:12:05 MJ: decent enough, just studying
03:12:27 Devastator: okay. Finished off some more puzzles.
03:12:48 Devastator: Now on a level of jewelbox tar/spear puzzles and they're effing awful.
03:13:08 Devastator: I've heard the name of this bonus level, and let me tell you, it isn't understated.
03:13:17 Devastator: It's supposed to be awful and it is.
03:13:23 Devastator: "Tar recycling annex."
03:13:39 Egan: game seems fun but also I'm too terrible at puzzles
03:14:17 Devastator: This is the final game, and the puzzles are much harder in it.
03:14:31 Devastator: the other games feature a more sane level of difficulty.
03:17:07 Egan: yeah but then if I start I'll eventually have to solve stupidly hard puzzles to finish it :p
03:17:12 Devastator: I'm really good with golems, and I'm good with slaying lots of tar, but spearcutting tar into overprecise shapes is too much.
03:17:23 Devastator:
Egan, you know how long I've been playing them?
03:17:41 Devastator: probably twenty years.
03:17:52 MJ: how old is this game series?
03:18:03 Devastator: mid-90s was the first one, IIRC.
03:18:12 Devastator: that version had no in-level save points.
03:18:53 Egan: if I play the first I gotta play the next and so on
03:18:59 Egan: if they have a connected plot
03:19:07 Devastator: Nah, there isn't much plot in the first one.
03:19:22 Devastator: The plot doesn't start until the second game, really.
03:22:07 Devastator: 'But, yeah, this is literally the fucking welcome committee and a pretty hard "are you ready for this kind of anarchy?"-check. There's nothing clever you can do to get out of this big fight.'
03:22:49 MJ: Looks like prime placment for a fireball
03:23:28 Devastator: fireball in that setting has friendly-fire.
03:23:36 Devastator: but there is a spell that covers that niche.
03:23:50 Devastator: basically it blasts out omnidirectional radiation that surrounds, but doesn't hit, the party.
03:25:28 Devastator: yeah. Gonna go get some food together soon.
03:25:30 MJ: there's a stone soup spell like that

03:49:45 MJ: Alright, I should go to bed. Goodnight gentleman
04:36:51 Devastator: These particular elementals are guarding a fountain of Dysenteric Wisdom.
