That sounds like it would indeed rock.  But, multiplayer, turn-based roguelike?

Zombies bloody everywhere

I've got a couple rounds and another spare pistol, but I'm down to one health without any medkits or safety in sight.

And I'm playing Thriller in the background.  Feels good man.


Also, the sleep music is really nice.  That sleep moves at 1 turn every half-second is a bit less great.


(EDIT:  Well, if I have to be killed by something, it might as well be him.


...Oh God I killed him.  What have I done, how will the world of hilarious anger ever recover?)

I'm fine with heroes being retarded.  Their entire purpose is to do stupid things in our names, after all.

Plus I'm not even sure if those grades do anything.  I mean, it's Progress Quest 2.  I don't even know if that stuff does anything except add flavor.


(EDIT:  Well, damn.

09:25 - Shamefully died by the hand of Feral Hero.
09:30 - Sniffed a strange smell. Am I rotting?
09:40 - What a bad luck to die in such a vulgar pose.
10:15 - I can't stand the tin shield rusting. When would I be resurrected? Why does it take so long?
12:25 - Great One, where are you? I'm tired of lying here and doing nothing...

Also,

Weapon - integral of mass destruction +5
Shield - tin shield +3
Head - chinese durable helmet +2
Body - The Mantle of Mantis +1
Arms - titanium gauntlets +2
Legs - holed Boots of Reliability +2
Talisman - basilisk's ear +2

My first game started with my dude in bed, and like four skeletons started in my house, surrounding me. I tried to punch one, but it didn't work so hot, so instead I hit "r" and dashed past them. THEN I noticed a handgun on a table across the room (previously out of sight), so I picked it up and blew 'em away. Then I noticed a baseball bat on another table on the other side of the room, which probably would've worked just as well.  :\

That character died horribly not too long later. I'd gotten a level and had leadership, so I got this one guy to follow me around. We transitioned to another map, where we entered a park. We headed south, but we ran into a ZOMBIE MASTER. My follower decided to stick it out and shoot at him; I decided to run like a non-idiot.

So, while the monster's clambering over the fence, I duck behind tree cover and go east, into unexplored territory. But, the master saw me and gave chase. I kept running into zombies, and eventually got too tired to run, with only my baseball bat. I tried to fight one off, but in the end it turned out zombies are kinda deadly.

My current character ran into another zombie master, exploring a shop. As I entered the place, I noticed all the shelves had been smashed into planks. I head down, and I see this huuuuge horde of zombies. Looking at them gave me their status as "following zombie master". None of them noticed me, so I got the hell out of that store.

There was a hardware store just north of that, and a gunshop just north of that.  I've shoved a buncha shelves against the entrances.  I dragged a bed into the gun store, but I haven't managed to find a source of food yet, and every time I try to go to the map to the East I run into monsters right next to the map's edge - like a zombie master with at least two redzeds


And yes, I would love the ability to carry ammo around.  I would also love for those other survivor idiots to not immediately jump on my barricade planks after I smash something and then try to sell me it, and the ability to target and kill them.  Choosing a name and sprite would be a nice, but not a priority for me.

Damn, are you me or something?

find a guildmaster and beg him to enroll me into “First Pantheon of Progress” guild

It's like halfway through, because I am bad at paying attention.  I've just blown through 25% Godpower trying to get him to drop it, and nothing's worked so far.  What's the cancellation phrase?

Got a new artifact: standard of idiocy!

Yay!

My guy finally started joining Slaves to Armok and by god, it's huge. We even have a town, Los-Demonos with 1% behind it, whatever that means.

I had tons of surplus Godpower again, so I was babbling to him or something while he was in town.  That made him get all preach-in-the-square-y, and thus influence.
