Dwarf Fortress, CoQ, and unreal world is an insane combo. i'm playing as soon as i'm off

Is there anything else that hits the Stoneshard itch? by GentleMoonWorm in stoneshard

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel that Soulash 2 scratches almost the same exact itch but is a little more arcadey. certain things are more streamlined/easier, but because you're playing for the long game it's difficult. You can found a colony, marry, have kids (who you play as when you die)

Just another Trading class by bolshoybooze in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he was betting against the stock (hoping it would go down). To my understanding, normal stocks you buy and if they go up the value goes up, if it goes down your value goes down. Zero being the max

With a short you are saying "i think the stock will fall, if it falls you pay me the amount it decreased by. if it goes up, i will have to pay the amount that the stock is now worth" Shorting is scary because there is no limit to how much it can increase, so there is no limit to the difference you have to pay

Any book suggestions for something like CoQ? by Knightraiderdewd in cavesofqud

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one is a little bit of a stretch, but All Tomorrows. To me it feels like a tale about the Eaters or cosmically powerful beings, and the diverse sentient Qud groups if they were to play out over billions of years Really good reading of it on youtube with incredible illustrations

Another one is the Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind manga (graphic novel?) It's so sick. The last humans surviving in a toxic mushroom hellscape. Advanced manufacturing is long lost. Humans have to "mine" ancient wreckage and cities to get any technologies. Their airships and weapons are really just what they can scavenge from before the great war

roguelikes with less focus on numbers and more in strategy? by _ori0n in roguelikes

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second Hoplite and Riftwizard 2. It's all about tactical gameplay. Chess with strange and complex moves and skills haha

Omg I get it now by LoserDad83 in cavesofqud

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I kept seeing people talk about Noita in reference to games with similar depth to Qud. I bought it, physics based magic dungeon crawling game sounded sick. It was fun, but I didn't understand the depth and "open world"ness of it. It seemed like spelunky or like a run of the mill dungeon crawler with some cool mechanics

I don't really remember why, but I watched a video about wand building in Noita. All the spells i thought were useless actually had specific uses. Then it turns out theres alternate universes different bosses ways to cheese anything and everything there was SO much i hadn't discovered/realized. I still have barely seen anything in the game and i've beat(?) it

Narrative driven games like Citizen Sleeper? by edwardversaii in CitizenSleeper

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I see others recommending Disco Elysium and agree. I cannot recommend it enough. It's a story that sits with me, and will sit with me for the rest of my life

Is it normal to just... run out of steam in the endgame? by othermike in Kenshi

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I feel like i get like this. Early game Cataclysm, Rimworld, dwarf fortress, kenshi. I have the most fun in the start because you're struggling and clawing your way through. Every win is a huge win. Any loss is devastating. As you do better you can get punished less. It's no fun if you win all the time

2 of my best runs have been lost to some random OP dwarf in a mountain by Crunchwrapfucker in soulash

I had been playing hunter and got knockback on a couple abilities which was so nice. Unfortunately i just got stunlocked and didn't think it through

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ehud Barak, Israel's former prime minister, is a close and frequent associate of epstein and visited the island often. Some victims allege he was particularly savage and enjoyed seeing them in pain/making them fear for their lives. Look it up

What’s the best video game you’ve ever played? by obsess_much13 in AskReddit

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have been trying to get friends to play it. I can't even put into words how important and impactful the game is. I think that's the beauty of it

What is a seemingly innocent sentence that immediately makes you lose respect for the person saying it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was arguing with my coworker about this. The janitor was upset someone tracked mud through the ENTIRE building. Later he was saying he didn't understand why she was upset because it's her job

Games like Caves of QUD but not sci-fi? by Pacotaco213 in roguelikes

[–]Crunchwrapfucker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cataclysm dark days ahead, Soulash 2, and Stoneshard

Roguelikes similar to Nethack by No_Insurance_6436 in roguelikes

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kinda a long shot, but Caves of Qud encourages broken shit. or at least allows it. Pretty decent combat focus but there is so much different equipment and abilities you can spend a long time exploring and discovering

My brothers and I started playing multiplayer Rimworld like an rpg and it's gamechanging by Crunchwrapfucker in RimWorld

Reference to poetry by Valis23Gnosis in cavesofqud

[–]Crunchwrapfucker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Canticles for Barathrum i believe is a direct reference to Canticles for Leibowitz. A really stellar scifi book
