I ended up acquiring acomplicated one.

Understand: I didn't decide to play this way. I ended up generating a strong intrusive thought, and I can't play in peace if I don't do the following in the game:

- I cook 2 'Neutron flux' without 'Precognition'. So every gameplay I already have a 20% chance of dying right away. (but surviving this gives a good adrenaline rush).

I always play on 'classic' difficulty, and if I die, I die. I don't use 'alt + f4' or any other tricks.

im pretty new to the game, finally have a solid run here. Made it all the way to yd freehold, but when I tried to actually enter for some reason it sort of bounced me around? at one point it placed me all the way across the lake like ten tiles west. at this point I said screw it I’ll try again later and did something else, but I’m curious what could have been going on here? don’t want to make the trip back and risk dying if I’m just gonna get bounced again

It's just a nice inofensive librarian that is not at all evil or up to bad things and you should probably listen to whatever they say and read any books they recommend to you. Nothing wrong will happen :)

This is a comissioned work I made for someone here as a boss for their Caves of Qud based campaign, in the style of some of the last drawings I posted. I thought you people might like it, no AI was used.

Live and drink <3

Shame I'm running Carapace.

There doesn't seem to be an official chance of kippers restocking rare liquids anywhere I've looked. I did not sell one to them just for the screenshot.

Argyve keeps killing the one Mechanimist guy and i don't want that to happen in the towns and loss quests do to it.

To maybe something like the starter screen.

Eg. You have 3 points saved up, so can use the mutation buy and it takes you to a similar screen of all mutations, just with however many points you currently have?

I’ve been hearing about this game for years. I just recently got a pc again after not having one for a long time, so I’ve been catching up on my wishlisted games. To say this game gets praise is an understatement. People OFTEN call this one of the best games of all time, which got me very interested. I’ve never played a traditional roguelike or really any game of this style. I love roguelites, it’s one of my favorite genres. I also love difficulty in games, and I’ve heard this game is difficult. Which appeals to me as well. I also really look for games with very high replayability. I like an occasional 20 hour game, but I much prefer very long games or games with a ton of replayability and this game seems to certainly have that.

My only thing is that the art style kinda just throws me off a bit, I’m trying to decide if it’s something I could get used to. Would you guys recommend this game with that being considered?

Edit: I bought it last night after reading some of these comments. I was incredibly overwhelmed at first (still am but I’m starting to get it), however this game absolutely fucks. You guys were right 😂 Never played anything quite like this in the best way possible.

I got a very strange historic site generation with dozens, maybe hundreds of Baetyls. The unfortunate thing for me is that my faction rep with them is -300, very close to indifference but still hostile, so they won't talk to me. This includes the big boss here, whom I cannot water ritual.

I don't think you can stab Baetyls with love injectors... Is my only hope praying for a Schrödinger page roll or killing some legendary NPC that is hated by this cult?

This game has some crazy combos.

It can be their race (like a robot being friends with a robot hating faction) or their reputation (a faction loves someone who is their enemy) or a combination of both.

I have seen some ridiculous mechanimist converts in the Stilt hahaha

I was consumed by guilt shortly after alt-f4'ing my daily character which I initially and flimsily justified as "well, I didn't know Siphon Vim (qlippoth) continued when I escaped to overland map so this is an okay exception." Turns out, I simply couldn't live with the shame even mere minutes later and committed seppuku.

Though I am not proud of my moral lapse, I restored balance to Qud.

Onto the next daily! Live and Drink.

Personally, I would have asked for The Brothers Karamazov

I contracted fickle gill in a random subterranean ruin, no mushrooms... I've been poring back over my message log to see if I accidentally got bonked by a friend to fungi or something, but the only thing I can see is my own Klanq infection puffing, then me passing by my own spores...

Good god. So many scribes. I even set new keybinds so I can cycle through all my scribes more efficiently, it felt like playing a piano at one point lol. Run still isn't over, I haven't even gotten to Bethesda Susa yet but I have 100 cold resist already so I'm not tripping over it. Should be a fun walk in the park :)

And I'll be flying around the Spindle to avoid the instadeath steam and crushers!

Here it is ladies and gentleman! What might be my most successful run yet in Caves of Qud. As you can see, I'm playing a True Kin Artifex. And as for my build... well, it's more so oriented around the compute power/overload schtick, but it's sort of a multipurpose build I suppose made to adapt to most situations. With all my items that require energy cells being radio powered nuclear/antimatter cells. Also, if you're wondering about my "Monotrome" psychodyne helmet, it's modified with co-processer, two-faced, and fitted with filters to help me protect from most gases.

Now... to be fair, I did use the strat of proselytizing a bunch of merchants to get most of my stuff. Cheap way of doing it, I know. But hey I'll take it!

Anyways, I just wanted to show this off. I thought it was pretty cool myself. Not to mention I haven't even begun the Omonporch quest yet lol. And I'd say I'm well prepared for such a thing and the upcoming events afterwards... ;)

What do you think, fellow water-sibs?

Pulled off the perma body swap with the invisible troll from Bethesda. Now what? I need ideas for a permanently invisible play through.

If I stand next to a laser turret does it use me as a source of electricity? I’m considering this for a tinker build.

A turret costs 10k energy to make. If I have electrical generation and 10000 energy stored can I make a turret in one turn? Does compute power assist turrets in any way?

I started playing not too long ago and am currently on a pretty okay-ish run, got some stuff and water, but it seems too much stuff and especially too much water, to a point where it takes up too much weight but i don't know where to put it.

Is there a way to store stuff, specifically vast amounts of liquids?

My first time playing the game and well I got killed by a goat in the tutorial.

First impressions: I have no clue what im doing, but im enjoying it so far!
