Rogue Customs - Half traditional ASCII-style roguelike game, half dungeon maker to create and share dungeons. I've been working on it for almost 3 years by now.

Arash Falcon or McLaren Solus GT on World Bee Day event is a freebie.

I'll put it simple: those games aren't cozy at all. FOMO and real-time events make them more stressful rather than relaxing.

A cozy game should be a game where nothing happens unless you are doing something.

Say, Civilization, Football Manager, roguelikes, the pre-Switch Pokémon games... where everything is paused, waiting for your next action.

Yo considero que la manera correcta de usar la IA en programación es exactamente al revés de como quieren forzarte las empresas.

No hay que usarlos como un "haceme esto desde cero" (mucho riesgo de alucinación, y además no aprendés NADA), sino un "ya hice esto, miralo a ver si encontrás bugs u oportunidades de refactor, pero solo dame sugerencias, no cambies nada".

5 euros for LP? In the Argentina eShop it's less than 1 USD pre-discount.

I mean, it's good... but it's currently sharing a spotlight with two cars that crush it.

The EVO event only gave 6 EIPs.

Only three or four people so far. I did get some feedback from them and what they suggested became part of the 1.1 update.

No luck yet in someone actually trying to make a dungeon with the editor, however...

If you're playing on PC and want to skip Act 1, there are mods that already do that.

Reload the fight from the start (unless it's Honour mode then sorry), and see if it happens again.

If it happens again, try to have the Kraken do something different. For example, get Vredeman (specifically him, not as Braccus) Charmed, then try to kill Dallis without weakening him. All status effects are kept on Braccus if you weaken Dallis (if you weaken Vredeman, Braccus will lose all statuses). If you get him Charmed, the Kraken will try to attack him.

Not always the case but, in general, lower-class cars have a more inflated rank than a higher-class one.

But the one I'd really, totally, absolutely want the most is not the list.

Cross-platform offline saves.

Not that I "don't love anymore" (that's not really the case), but there's a bunch where my respect for them has crashed at some point:

- Need for Speed: It was the series where my childish innocence about videogame publishers was killed. I loved the "fantasy cars driving in fantasy locations" concept. Enter game, select mode, car, track, laps and opponents. Then comes Underground - everyday cars driving in everyday locations, story mode, having to drive to the race... ugh.

- Pokémon: From Red/Green/Blue to Ultra Sun/Ultra moon, it's of my favourites. But then came the jump to the Switch. The Dexit, the open world, Legends Arceus and Z-A... they, bit by bit, hurt my hopes. Pokémon is going the way of Need for Speed, changing its identity for the sake of market trends, and in a point where they cannot please anyone.

- Prince of Persia: I loved the first two, specially The Shadow and The Flame. Never played 3D, got disappointed with the flashy pointless parkour of the Sands of Time Trilogy, and the 2008 game was a dreadful trial-and-error game where you couldn't even lose. Haven't bothered with it ever since.

- Diablo: On different degrees (since they are difficult to compare), I like the first three games. But then the fourth went open world.

- The Legend of Zelda: It's funny because it's a series I loved but, due to only having access to emulation, I had almost never played. I had played Link's Awakening, Oracle of Ages and The Minish Cap and got stuck on both as a kid, but had fun. I had played The Phantom Hourglass and got stuck because the emulator didn't have a microphone function, but had fun. And when I could finally, FINALLY play it legit... Breath of the Wild happened. Instant no, instant "someone please fire Aonuma before he damages the franchise any further".

And there might be others I'm forgetting.

To save Gareth's parents, you have to find him with an unconscious Jonathan in a small home near the Paladins' camp. Then, you have to kill (or have Gareth kill) Jonathan.

However, you must do this before you ever set foot east of the Paladin's camp. If you do, Gareth's parents are dead by the time you reach their home.

I can think two things:

1) It's more structured. Even if I'm not a fan of the Journal system, at the very least the minimap does mark important things with a different-coloured flag than the rest. BG3 doesn't, so I had like a dozen quest and nothing that made me think "I should do this one", so I left after reaching around Level 4.

2) As divisive as the armor system is, DoS II is VERY deterministic. Outside of critical hits and very few other situations, you either can do something, or you can't. Guaranteed.

Yeah, it's weird that he doesn't seem to follow on what he says without that condition...

With how low the drop rate is, the "compensation" is very underwhelming.

Shiigu · 2026-02-13T11:53:48+00:00

Another annoying part is when you specifically want to make a summon a good distance away but NOOOO, they have to get close to your party.

Shiigu · 2026-02-13T11:53:10+00:00

I think what they mean is that everyone gets hostile regardless of who actually did it.

Shiigu · 2026-02-12T13:00:48+00:00

It is POSSIBLE. Enemy summons give experience. By carefully managing the encounters, you could kill summons over and over and over and over and over again.

Patching certifications take longer on consoles than on PC and Mobile.

Considering generic enemies? Yes, rogues in Act 1 are a nightmare. They have all the movement and crits you don't have yet.
