General Chatter - The Boozer / Re: Exilian Pub Quiz - The Seconde!

Well, I nailed the war round at least, so for once I seem to be representing the pseudo-Fremen position on a quiz: dim at the culture stuff but knows about how to wage destruction on your feeble "civilisations" with their puny "music videos" and "comedy".

Yeah, that sounds good, I should have another version by then
So today's addition is another new hero/companion type - the scholar! You've been able to escort them on missions for a while, but now they can be part of your party and may offer their services at the end of an escort quest. Scholars have the worst statline by far (literally straight 1s) of the heroes, but they have a maximum of four abilities and start with two (rather than max 3 start 1 with the other hero types), and will offer a range of party management and information bonuses via their skills.
I think I've also fixed the bug where squires could get combat stances despite already having an attack or defence skill in place.

I knew you'd say that
But yeah, that would make a lot of sense honestly. I just have a feeling I'll hate the combat, from what I've seen of it?

I don't know what to play next 
Could go back and see if Bannerlord has improved... I'm kind of feeling like another RPG would be good maybe, but I don't know which I really want to play.

Bigosaur / Re: Son of a Witch: Devlog and general discussion

Hm, yeah... I think personally I'd put increasing variation in rooms/enemies higher than increasing options for e.g. weapons or potions by way of priority - I tend to feel that I get a good amount of diversity in equipment, and that quite a number of things require unusual combos to really work so I don't get to use them much already (like for example the weapons that do damage to you, which are really hard to make work without vampire blood potions). The occasional chance of variant enemies or slightly more room options I think would add more - especially the dungeon which only & always has the wolf wheel thing, and the desert which doesn't really have any unique special rooms.
But anyway, I'm just one person & I'm sure other people are giving you thoughts too!
This also reminds me, I made at least one or two more skins I've not released yet...

Oh wow! Let me know when things need testing
Will you have any additional rooms for current levels? I think one or two of them could maybe do with extra possibilities for special rooms, which would help freshen up the replayability.

Discussion and Debate - The Philosopher's Plaza / Re: Canadian Politics 2020
« on: November 26, 2020, 09:42:10 AM »
I tried doing a quiz on remembering the Canadian provinces yesterday. I got most of them - the exceptions were the Northern Territory, Newfoundland and Labrador, and New Brunswick, the last of which I really should have got as it's mentioned in the song Cousin Jack, so I know the name well I just forget it's in Canada and is a province level unit. I also went and did this for a bunch of other countries - I only got about five of the Indian states (including forgetting the name of Kashmir, embarrassingly), was on a total non-starter with most places (I was totally lost trying to do France). The only places I got 100% scores for were Austria and the USA, which says something about my world alignment I guess.
