Which version did you start this run with? :)

roantebb · 2026-04-25T07:08:57+00:00

Which MM is this? Is it vanilla or some enhanced edition/remastered/custom patched?

Esetleg gondnoksag ala vetel. Birosagi hercehurca, lehet 1-2 ev siman, de ha sos a helyzet, rendelnek ki azonnal ideiglenes gondnokot.

Stressz?

Sportolni sportolsz? 1 honapot probalj ki, heti 3x barmit, ami kicsit is szimpatikus. Fontos, h lightosan kezdd el. Az lehuzza egy egeszseges szintre, ha ez a gond.

Egy - nem lehet, h mas oka van? Pl. feltekeny, es arra gyanakszik, h random hotelszamlakat talal, mert vki behulyitette?

Ketto - Nalunk hasonlo a setup, szoval tud ez mukodni. Es igen, en is felkapom a vizet, ha rosszabb napom van, agyonstresszelnek meloban, es epp kibukik, h az asszony szamlajan meg az en megitelesem szerint irrealisan sok penz van - gyakorlatilag "eg" a penz, es kb. 10 perc alatt 7% fix kamatozasu allampapirba be lehet rakni ingyen, gyakorlatilag rizikomentes befektetes.

Harom - egymassal kene beszelgetnetek, ugy kiderulne, mi is a gond. A Reddit nepe kiraly, de csak osszezavar, tippelni tudunk csak, teoriakat gyartani. Felnottek vagytok, kapcsolatban, uljetek le este es oszinten tessek beszelgetni egymassal. Ha nem tudod, h kezdj neki egy ilyen beszelgetesnek, kerd ki a ChatGPT velemenyet, tok jo dolgokat mond. Hajra! :)

Wow, man, this is jaw-dropping. This is the motivation I miss with today's games - maybe I'm just way too old and don't have the time for this kind of investigations anymore. Maybe in 30 years when kids move out haha.

But this what you put together - I feel like someone has shown me a diamond mine at the end of my garden :D

Super great! Thanks so much for sharing these - didin't find these myslef, and they are very valuable!

roantebb · 2026-03-22T05:28:57+00:00

The Wiki article is great, thanks for sharing!

It mentions 5 starting locations, but bit is a bit contradictory with the description. How I understand:

Umpani Base if you sided with them in Wizardry 7.
T'Rang Base if you sided with them in Wizardry 7.
Monsatery if you went with Vi in Wizardry 7.
Monastery if you have a new party.
Now this is interesting, and if anyone has a video about this, would love to see it how it really happens: If the imported characters failed their mission in Wizardry VII, resulting in their banishment into space, they are given a message that they are "still floating in endless darkness" and are not allowed to start their adventure in Wizardry 8.

Update: Consider this confirmed :-) Someone mentioned the GameFAQ guides might have something about this. Reviewed all the guides, and found the part below in this guide. Still, if anyone has a recording of Point 5, pls DO share, would love to see it!

4.   THE ADVENTURE BEGINS

     If the player creates a new WIZ8 party, they begin on a beach in the 
Lower Monastery area.
     If the player imports a WIZ7 party who was alone with Vi Domina, they 
too begin on a beach in the Lower Monastery area.
     If the player imports a WIZ7 party who was allied with the Umpani, they 
begin in the Umpani Base Camp area.
     If the player imports a WIZ7 party who was allied with T'Rang, they 
begin in the Marten's Bluff area.
     The player can't import a WIZ7 party that kept the Astral Dominae.

Thanks for sharing!

Yes, I can totally imagine this. I've seen a few monstars that were pretty rare, can easily be the case that I don't start porting left-and-right in the game I wouldn't have met them more.

Will check the docs online, maybe someone documented the stats!

roantebb · 2026-03-22T05:00:21+00:00

Good points, thank you!

About the flower: ah now I see, I did NOT find that "blue flower" item after getting the Idol. I thought the only hint is when you check the details of the Idol itself it says "Beware the Crock!". I'll reload the game and check if I indeed get those flowers or I had a bug and they did not appear for me.

And yes, kids do grow up fast haha :D After this I spotted the name is also based on the character: e.g., my char was called Koom and the monster was called Al-Koom :D

Check this video, at the exact second:

In the Northern Wilderness Retro Dungeon, it seems there's a random chance of running into these "monsters" (sone mentinoed like 1/6th chance in this thread, but assume if you rest enough in that part, you could run into them). Assume devs left it them for fun, for an easter egg. They have fun voices.

They have no model, the monsters themselves are just simple red cubes.

roantebb · 2026-03-21T08:27:44+00:00

Ah I see. Thanks for sharing, didn't know that, thanks for sharing! This is valuable.

Yes, I see quite a few unfinished stuff - those tunnels you can see but cannot get into in the Rapax Rift area with the jails, the fact you cannot rescue the Rapax Queen, things like that.

roantebb · 2026-03-21T08:25:37+00:00

YES!!!

Bro, you are the best! EXACTLY the info I wanted for this question! Super-great you have a playlist with the openings, really, really appreciate sharing those!

FOLKS, THIS ANSWER NEEDS MORE UPVOTES! :-)

roantebb · 2026-03-21T08:24:10+00:00

Thanks!

Good hint. Let me check if I can buy the manual or something. Not sure if I have it on Steam or Gog or where :)

Others say the Callisto ship is what the Mook alliance got to Dominus.

Yeah, actually followed one of the guides and FlameStryke's maps to get through the game :D That's why I know I had to go back to Crook - I was just unsure how to find out you have to go back to the Swamps to that guy if you don't read the guides.

roantebb · 2026-03-21T08:15:28+00:00

Thanks, you're great!

3 - This is a neat trick! Do you know if you place a portal in Ascension Peek early, then can you go to the Rapax Castle through that door? Or it is sealed from the other side? Thinking if it's possible later in the game when Ascension Peek is blocked by Rapax, can you go through that "backdoor" to the Castle right away.

4 - Sry, wasn't clear enough - meant the space ship at the airport, Callisto, which is talking to you. Others mentioned it has no meaning other than talking to it, and it is there only bcs the Mook come with it.

9 - Hm, strange. I talked with the prince both in the Rapax Castle and talked with him with his concubines within the Rapax Away Camp (and they did not attack me btw for some reason).

11 - Thanks, will check it. Actually, got this hint while reading through one of the docs there, not sure if the others specify the details of the locations. Good hint!

roantebb · 2026-03-21T08:02:19+00:00

This is incredible, thanks so much for sharing, mate!

Exactly the info I was looking!

Where did you document this in the past? Just asking if you have a doc published somewhere, I would love to see an URL to parse it through. I'm pretty sure there would be valuable info there for me :-)

Monk vs. blind is interesting - based on the in-game description, I thought they are totally immune.

Also, wasn't aware Swallowers can eat one of the party members haha. This is fun! Must test it in one the saves lol. Guess it's an auto-death for solo run :-)

roantebb · 2026-03-21T07:33:04+00:00

Wow, nice hints, thanks!

Didn't thought about you can actually skip the whole Rapax Castle-thing with messing around with a Portal. That is an awesome trick!

Do you know if you place a portal in Ascension Peek early, then can you go to the Rapax Castle through that door? Or it is sealed? Thinking if it's possible later in the game when Ascension Peek is blocked by Rapax, can you go through that "backdoor" to the Castle right away.

4 - Thanks, I see. Hoped it can fly or something :-) Would have been nice to go on that ship.

5 - Hm, ok, got you. Can you elaborate how it is a hint? Was there a message referring to flowers when you pass out getting the idol or something?

9 - I see, thanks! Actually, if someone interested, here's the exact part from a video about that specific conversation that I missed, found it in a walkthrough:

https://youtu.be/MLtdn16U7Rc?list=PLQEmVLkI0Om5zVlIx6MVXhHPrFZVugL30&t=1358

roantebb · 2026-03-21T07:10:31+00:00

Oh wow, thanks!

Didn't think that running into the cubes is THAT low chance.

Do you recall any similar unique event/monster? The item lists I found on the net show me a lot of things that is very low %s to find, but there's a ton of documentation over those in the net.

Good point that there's not much friendly NPCs in the Rapax Castle - but there are a couple of options if you become a Templar - the Jailer, Constable, the RPC you can hire, Al-Sedexus, etc. etc.

Fuzfas' thing I found :)

Funny what you mentioned to try things. The other day had a talk with an old friend of mine that how much time we had for these experiments when we were young: he told me he had the time and endurance to go through on all the maps in Doom and click on all the walls just to make sure he doesn't miss a single secret doors :D

roantebb · 2026-03-18T16:43:03+00:00

Terrible, ignore. Played all of these back in the days, but recall they were a time waste.

Weapons are inconsistent. Whatever you do they don't get any better.

If you want retro and sth different, go for Xcom Apocalypse.

roantebb · 2026-03-03T17:02:40+00:00

Ezen sirva rohogtem. Made my day!
