first for centipedes
>>148468497
Centipede fact: Centipedes always have an odd number of legs, barring an injury. Thus a centipede with 100 legs can't exist naturally.
>>148468695
>odd number of pairs of legs
FTFY
>>148468695
centipede fact: despite having more than a hundred legs, centipedes can only wear 6 pairs of boots, much like the mythical hydra
>>148468695
Insect factoid: millipedes always have one thousand pairs of legs, barring injury.

>>148467971
>one ring
No. Every ring and amulet in nethack increases hunger. of Hunger just does it much more so.
>>148469078
tung isn't ded, maintaining dyna was just too much work
>>148469246
really?
I got spoiled
>>148469532
each piece of jewelry adds 1 turn worth of hunger every 20th turn,
the check is actually only on turns divisible by 20 I think, so if you're autistic enough you can take your ring off on the 19th turn and put it back on on the 21st
>>148469246
not to mention there are three rings that increase hunger more than the normal 1 tick every 20 turns:
conflict, hunger, and regen
also ring of slow digest doesn't prevent jewelry hunger, so if you're wearing nothing but sd you still get the 1-in-20 food tick
>>148435612

>>148469996
no, you don't understand
He didn't know I was there, but he was five tiles away from me and in my LOS
You know how some enemies can't see you yet even if they're in your LOS
So instead of walking towards him and leaving 4 tiles of pure rape because he would have noticed me, I walk away to get out of LOS
but he moves too and he notices me
so I take another step away so that I would be out of LOS in the next, so he only gets one shot
and one shot takes away more than half my health
and that was when I was forced to melee him
I honestly thought you guys were joking

Is that really supposed to be Trog in the OP? Looks like some magic-using demon sissy nerd.

>>148479372
I doubt Trog and Sif Muna are younger than even the US age of consent in universe.
>>148480210
You can be a thousand year-old vampire and still be a loli, anon
You could even be a thirty year-old neckbeard loli
>>148480537
Nabokov is turning over in his grave.
>>148480810
he's done that a lot
I lost track, is he upside down or rightside up now?
>>148481047
He's like one of those twisted up horrors from an ito Junji manga.
>Try one of the sprints
>This happens
I didn't know rock walls counted as air
>>148480810
I don't see why. The name wasn't that important.
>>148480810
I don't see why he should be all that attached to the novel that got him labelled as a pedophile by the public and which had to be published as porn initially because nobody else wanted it
He was actually going to burn the whole thing before his wife stopped him
>>148481154

also sif is clearly a disgusting imouto
I kind of want to try cult of personality but my chr is currently shitty so it won't really do much until much later
or do i just go the ez route and pick grasp
>>148483486
MERCHANT'S
FRIEND
>>148483486
Grasp won't do anything until much later either.
I'm pretty bad at the game, but when I picked cult of personality I was disappointed. It makes weak summon spam friendly but it won't reliably work on dangerous summons, if I understood correctly.
>>148483486
Class?
>>148483705
burglary rogue, so I already get spells for quick walk and faster-than-astral-guide teleports
>>148483271
>sif is clearly a disgusting imouto
Sif looks more like she would be one of the imouto's friends.
Trog does kind of look like Kirino, though.
I should rewatch Oreimo
>>148478302
This is a canon depiction of Trog.
>>148485727
Oh, thanks.
>>148485376
You should do yourself a favour and watch something decent, like Mars of Destruction instead.
>>148485727
More like Xom.
>three scrolls of acquirement
>wand of random effects
>wand of acid
>wand of ice blast
>>148485863
>'Xom' is just playing Calvinball with his worshipers
IT ALL MAKES SENSE
>>148485863
i bet he grows up to be an architect
>>148486041
>he fell for the wand acquirement meme
I'm sorry you had to find out this way pepe
>>148485863
Wasn't MoD a clusterfuck of nonsense?
>>148485863
mars of destruction is fucking garbage, you dolt
>>148487853
I would also recommend Butt Punisher Attack Girl before Oreimo.
>>148488183
>>148485863
Master of Martial Hearts is also pretty good.
>>148488183
Oreimo is one of the greatest romances of the modern era though
>>148485848
Rate the schoolies, /vg/
It is my firm opinion thatLiskais top schoolie
>>148482490
But it didn't? The message log clearly reveals that the wall disappeared because it's fucking Violet Keep and that is a thing that happens?
>>148488732
The story in Angband is about as compelling.
>the epic saga of a hobbit and his love for speed
>>148488735
Looks like furshit, so I rank them all dead last.
>>148488735
Violet is my favorite.
>>148483689
It works when monsters summon a lot of nasty shit. I've gotten friendly Hera and others before.

What's the best way to manage Vampire satiation? Stay fully alive at all times unless you're fighting something that uses cold/torment/drain?
>>148488973
>his love for speed
Is there anything more pure in this world?
>>148490732
Full as possible until level 3, then satiated for batform access, thirsty if you need rPois for a poison branch is what I do.
>>148491007
Is batform actually useful?
>>148491050
do you like to walk away? then yes
>>148491104
Not usually but I guess I could try
>>148491050
>trade your shitty <10 AC for a bunch of AC, fast move and flight all in one action
Seems pretty good to me.
>>148490732
Stay alive until very late game when you need torment immunity and/or extremely high stealth. Stabbing through Tomb/Hell just so happens to benefit from both aspects of being bloodless. By then you should have at least one wand of HW and plenty of recharge scrolls, or have six stars with Makh.

It's roguelikes, friend. All of it.
>>148505779
so i did the Grieve path, here's how it endedyou tell the sun about what the bazaar and masters have done, and also about the bazaar's reason for hiding in the neath. i.e. the message it sent the bazaar out with, a declaration of love for another Judgment, came back as "no." what happens after that is exactly what the bazaar was afraid of: the sun kills itself in grief and, in doing so, destroys the earth, the neath, and everyone in it. naturally you get obliterated as well, but through your horrible, burning-freezing sacrifice, a debt was paid and a due was given. it was described a lot better and longer ingame and i legit teared up towards the end, but that's the super condensed version

I only made it to POSI and bruteforce bought a home in the Bazaar with whispered hints before the braindead grinding became too much to bear.
God-tier world locked behind garbage mobage. Greatest tragedy of a generation.
>>148505367
I binge-read over a thousand posts when I first found it. Literally did nothing but read thousands and thousands of words of Echo Bazaar lore.
I still check the page at least a couple times a day to see if he's posted anything new.
>>148506074it's Fallen London, a browser-based game with some really good writing. it's hit-or-miss, to be sure.
>>148506140What if I told you a lot of what he writes is blatantly false, to mislead people like you
>>148506246
SHHHHH DON'T TELL PEOPLE SHIT LIKE THAT
>>148505941
You are a god among men. I would pay so much money for a hardcover book that was just a well-organized textdump of everything in Fallen London.
>>148506140
They should just start writing fucking books, like the Discworld series or some shit at this point. I'd kill for that kind of thing.
>>148506246He's employed with failbetter now, so it's not entirely out of the question.
>>148506081
Wow dude. That's so fucking deep.
It's like in Inception when they say "We have to go deeper!"
>>148506332
He's been doing it since way before he got in with Failbetter.Something like 75% of what he writes is either totally made up or a half-truth and most of it isn't supported in lore at all, people just take him at his word about it.
>>148506452I want to believe this
>>148506531Devils are not bees, that's one of the biggest lies he's put out there. You have to dig deep to learn what they really are.
bavarian fire drills
>>148506246
I wouldn't even care, because the world as he presents it is amazing enough.
Besides, everything I've read that wasn't a tongue-in-cheek joke has lined up with what I've experienced in the game and what I've read elsewhere. Sometimes you just have to decipher when he's describing how things probably are vs how characters in the world see it.
>>148506603Then what of the buzzing that always is tied in with them? And what about the chitinous Prince of Hell you meet in Heart's Desire?
>>148506704They are related to the lamplighter bees, obviously, but they aren't skinsuits for them or any retarded shit like that. It's more like they're cousins to them.
It's over
Rogulike are finished!
>>148506820That's what I figured. Curious as to whether they treat Lamplighter Bees as kin or as a sort of slave caste of sorts? Or maybe they're all part of the same community after the revolution?

just perfect for dumb people
just killed Smaug on my burglary rogue
most of the spells in the third book are kinda shit
why would i want to pay 48sp to summon a pile of shitty low-level traps and then teleport, when i could just pay 12sp to teleport
especially because all the 'panic' spells have a chance to not actually teleport based on your disarming skill, for some reason

Traps are useless, that's a fact.
They're just slight annoyance to the player and "oh look, it's nothing" to the mobs.
