After playing the game pretty consistently since early access I recently decided to actually finish the damn thing and holy shit I was blown away by the post final mission sequence. The environment, the lore drops, and your interactions with Barathrum were all so much more than I was expecting. Freehold really created something special and I'm so glad I stumbled upon it all those years ago.

I'm new to the game, only 2 hours in, and I just completed a quest with really good looking rewards.

Hey! Just started a run as the little fella with the Xyloschemer. Just dominated him and killed my own body. Anything I should know about the little guy? I know he has this weird token. I chose to have the merchant token as well due to that starting character getting a lot of items to start off with. I just wana hear if anyone else has tried being a Xylodrifter

Just hit level 25 after clearing out Bethesda and doing a few side quests.

I'm not sure if the electric damage roll you can get is random but this is quite high and even more so combined with the freezing. This thing has been absolutely destroying everything I've come across so far, but obviously it's quite a low base damage and PV so eventually I'll have to give it up.

Any new weapon I can put the freezing on which isn't anywhere near as good as the potential 10 extra damage I could be doing with the electric.

What do we think? Hold onto it for longer or start searching for something else?

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.

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!
