Regarding Treasure Goblins by flaminggutsin Diablo

[–]Anatidaephobia 7 points8 points ago

This is true. As long as you don't actually hurt the goblin, it will sit perfectly still. What you can often do is go behind him before attacking to steer him in the desired direction.

Use Spiritual Attunement in combination with Vision Quest. Now, Vision Quest is the key here – all you need to do is to keep 4 skills on cooldown. In this example it was gargantuan, fetish army, soul harvest and big bad voodoo.

Your mana regen will be insane, and you can channel zombie burrs for all eternity.

Dear new posters - a note about what goes here. by haymakers9thin dolan

[–]Anatidaephobia[M] 98 points99 points ago

Earlier response to a very similar thread:

I won't try to define any rules, because there are none. I will, however, give some keywords and examples.

When it comes to visual style, a good dolan commonly has beautifully shitty drawing and brilliantly shitty grammar – four panel preferred. Its content is random, absurd, often brutal/controversial in a ridiculous way. What I think is the hallmark of a great dolan is its ability to leave you going "… what?" while still laughing audibly.

Here are some examples of classic dolans showcasing a variety of these qualities:
Example 1
Example 2
Example 3

And here is some cancer:
Cancer 1
Cancer 2

Keep in mind these are subjective guidelines, not rules. As long as it's absurd, funny and "home made", you're probably fine. Things change. Just refrain from effortless penis jokes.

Regards.

What's the point of the random stat rolling when creating a new character? by Anatidaephobiain WazHack

[–]Anatidaephobia[S] 1 point2 points ago

Yeah I can understand that mentality to a certain degree, but it just doesn't seem to apply well here. You just end up dealing your own hand a thousand times until you get the stats you want, which is pretty much the same as a tedious way of allocating your own stats.

I would suggest allowing manual stat allocation within class limits, and then add a "randomize and go" kind of button for those who enjoy that sort of play.

WazHack Beta5: Multiplayer without a realtime treadmill by WazWazin roguelikes

[–]Anatidaephobia 8 points9 points ago

Just tried it out, first impressions:

I reached the free to play limit on my first character within 18 minutes. It plays like a platformer nethack for casuals. Practical controls, neat graphics, pretty fun. Keyboard-only was fairly intuitive, although I still cannot figure out how to aim and zap wands without the mouse.

The stat-rolling system is completely unnecessary and straight up bad design. You can get the stat allocation you want (within what seems to be preset min/max for each stat for each class), you just have to get through the tedious step of clicking reroll… reroll… reroll… Just let us choose, damn it.

I would never know about the talent/skills window had I not found it by accidentally pressing 'y'. It's confusing that it does not have its icon in the row with inventory, quaff, zap etc.

During the short time I played I don't think I spotted a single thing not taken directly from nethack. It was a bit disappointing seeing such an original concept having no original lore.

Either way, it's fun, it's neat. It's clearly far from finished, but it plays.

My biggest problem with r/dolan since its newly found popularity by dailybeefstewin dolan

[–]Anatidaephobia 9 points10 points ago

Actually it's the other way around. Goofy and gooby are not the same character. Goofy is the mundane goofy in a car, usually getting cheated. Gooby is the hairy "new age" character, similar to bogs and dafty.

New users don't realize "goofy pls" originates from a comic with goofy, not gooby.
