what went so right? will there ever be another game as perfect as TOME?
>>750732762I just pressed random shit, cleared 3-4 areas and then spontaneously died. Need to retry it some day.
>>750732762>what went so right?Playable skeleton race
>>750732762I tried this shit and was bored to tears. What's the appeal? I've played Rift Wizard 2, Path of Achra, Infra Arcana, and Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, and all of those were WAYY more interesting.
>>750735434normal difficulty involves a lot of mindless mob clearing, but on nightmare difficulty or higher the enemies you encounter are a lot more interesting. at that point things become tactically rich, and you have to manage cooldowns, debuffs, positioning, etc in a layered way that the games you mention (which are also good) don't do.
>>750732762I hope that goofy frog gets over his mental issues and finishes the next couple expansions
>>750732762haven't played in years but I remember managing to clear insane rl on like 10 classespretty good timesdoes get a bit repetitive though
I'd like it if it didn't crash all the time
>>750735863one of the expansions was supposed to be done by a different person entirely, whatever happened to that? maybe he can't do it without darkgod in some capacity
Necromancer class is fun, need to try winning as possesser, any tips?
>>750736040Not sure since I haven't seen any news about it/him for at least a few years now
>>750732762>have game for free for years>put it on steam>haha ummmm lolz okay so I HAVE to charge money mmmkay???? I HAVE to since Steam won't let me put a free base game out and change for expansions. I'm so sorry!!!!!!Fuck the faggot[I still think it's a great game/spoiler]>>750735434only played DC:SS out of those and ToME 4 is more autism based around 'more spreadsheets' for me. It's also more 'specific' in terms of you can build a character from the start more accurately like NetHack does. DC:SS is more open and can let you have your MiFi worship Sif and have her giving you a bunch of spells to become 'I am the melee caster bull now'
>>750736130>>750736040>>750735863anons, he's retiredhe openly said he made like 10 million and is done
>>750738885he recently returned to the discord. the expansion is coming bros.
>>750732762How to play this on controller? I have an ROG Ally that I installed SteamOS onto, so that means I cannot play without controller controls.
>>750732762update when?
>>750739125Anon he's done
>>750740225i dont see lost land dlc on steam
>>750740225do not spread lies on /v/ the expansion is coming bros
>>750732762It's britty gud
>>750732762I prefer DCSS
dark god more like gay loser lmao
>>750732762I love this game so much, and I'm not even a roguelike guy. There's something about it that feels so quaint and simple at first and then you hit the overworld and it's like your own personal Lord of the Rings unfolding
>>750732762Anybody on here actually do the max difficulty one life? Seems fucking insane.
>>750732762Tome has a few tracks hidden in it that I really like as background music.It has its niche and in that niche it has HEAPS of content classes and so on
tome was supposed to be a Middle Earth game but he didn't wanna pay a licensing fee so it ain't a Middle Earth game. the soul comes from how the guy just throws stuff in to the game, all sorts of shit he comes up with it's real kitchen sink development, and whether it's good or sucks a huge dick he leaves it in. game can be wild
>>750741516what shitstorm?
>>750744873Trannisms
>>750744891really?
>>750744873the php vulnerability stuff
>>750741516this will be ready in 2035
>>750744990oh
>>750744858"tome" is ToME4It WAS Tales of Middle Earth until tome2When copyright and shit started cracking down on free software.All of band games are lotr based as well.What a weird way to try to frame how this was a lotr fan game like many other roguelikes and became its own thing.
>>750744858>>750745135You both mean angand
>>750745463>All of band games are lotr based as well.What do you think this means?And angband is based on the dungeons of moria dipshit
>>750745495And in itself moira was based on RogueAnon, it wasn't LotR
>>750732762I love the class design of this game so much. So many unique concepts and mechanics. Paradox Mage with its literal time travel mechanics, Solipsist with the dream duel, Writhing One straight out of Cthulhu, and so on. Although some of the classes are blatant ripoffs of World of Warcraft.
>>750745604Yup yup yupLots or Tolkien's works has shit like uh... big worms
>>750745645>Although some of the classes are blatant ripoffs of World of Warcraft.The classes take a lot from angband's classes....which is uh... from the 90s and a lot older than wowblizzard took a lot from roguelikes.
>>75074576780% of Sun Paladin's abilities are straight copies of WoW Holy/Prot/Ret Paladin spells.Shadowblade too. Shadowstep, Shadow Dance, etc.
I've gotten really far with Dwarf Beserk, Elf Archer and Human Bulwark especially (Darth turned into a cloudy city with lightning storms attacking the people and I). However, I don't have all classes.
Trust, two expansions soon!
>>750741516>Darkgod alive>Qud expansion coming in December>Tarn delayed the myth and magic update but itz still coming soon>Biskup is still supposedly going to be updating ADOM at some point ever since he got the rights back (the fuck)>Jupiter Hell Classic is.... Kind of being rushed out because nobody bought it because he fumbled the ball by confusing everyone and it probably won't be a sovlfvl as DRL and not as well refined or good as Jupiter Hell but it's still pretty fun anywayOh yeah, it's all coming together
>>750732762I haven't beaten the game onceI've only ever made it to the other continent twicevery good game
>>750732762How do I make this game not look like blurry shit?
>>750746180Why not just play on infinite life mode?
>>750747934Why not just mod your games to be invincible all the time?Why not just watch a video of someone beating the game?Why not just imagine beating the game?Why not say you played and beat it despite never having touched it?
>>750747981so you only play on hardcore?very impressive
>>750748061>hardcore?You mean Roguelike difficulty?The default difficulty of the game?The intended difficulty of the game?The literal point of the genre?Yes anon, that is the ONLY difficulty I have ever played the game on and to play on any other is pointless.Did you really just ask if people actually play on roguelike in a thread about roguelikes?
>>750748089>The default difficulty of the game?NTA but HACKSCHEWALLY by default it goes to adventure mode so you get a few lives to play around with since ToME tends to suddenly spring one hit killers on you out of nowhere
>>750736270Retard. ToME stayed free, the steam version is basically the donator version that lets you get the premium content and the expansions without having to mess with his crusty site and its donation system
>>750747934i'm that anon, I like the tension in roguelike a lot more, the dopamine rush from actually reaching the latter parts of the game that one time was crazy
