03:57:00 Devastator: what are you playing?
04:00:11 ER: detective game. with first person platforming and exploration?
04:06:45 Devastator: MG the Sherlock Holmes?
04:08:14 ER: I dunno about MG, though she can double jump ;p
04:10:31 Devastator: Hmm, so mobility then. ;-p
04:10:43 Devastator: ..I do want bird, though.
04:31:17 Devastator: oh my, berryjohn finished his Descent LP, so it's all on youtube at this point.
04:32:16 Devastator: guy's not playing it keyboard only, and he's playing it on Hotshot.. ;-p
04:32:22 Devastator: (third of five difficulties)
04:32:25 Devastator: but it's still more than enough.
04:34:54 Devastator: Third is about where it turns from a casual game into a serious one.
04:35:14 Devastator: fourth and fifth is best described as 'Hellish' and 'Insane'
04:36:35 Devastator: don't worry about those.
04:37:07 ER: I won't worry about any of them
04:38:02 Devastator: gah, I gotta stop watching it, guy missed a secret. I love the game, but it'll drive me nuts actually watching someone else play it. ;-p
04:49:01 Devastator: skipping ahead to a known fun level.. yeah, this guy's a very good entertainer.
05:20:03 Devastator: they're also mocking level 11, one of the ones I like the most. ;-p
05:32:07 Devastator: guy does polish up his skills a lot over the time, which is good.
06:03:07 Devastator: well, I'll write some extinction.
06:16:42 Devastator: next update is probably another TBC, and then there's fight stuff.

17:31:57 ER: so in my test game I'm running now, turns are deterministic and I ask players to describe the outcome of their actions in a 'cool' way
17:32:18 ER: with carrot, not stick. they gain 1 mana when they do so
17:33:13 ER: was thinking about how to do a kind of character action rpg, so this is my equivalent of the style meter in devil may cry
17:33:51 ER: but adapted to encourage collaborative writing
17:36:26 Devastator: yeah, it's interesting.
17:49:09 Nikitian: Sounds interesting, wish you success with this system! :)
19:11:22 ER: I also ponder if giving the enemies the power to stunlock players is, while fair, perhaps a little mean
19:13:23 ER: but one the other hand I'm trying to get through rounds quickly, and the players are strictly more powerful than these grunts, they're just fighting more simplisticaly. Than the enemy type which just has one actionset it endlessly repeats :p
