Gnolls are much more dangerous than Sigmund. The only advantage Sigmund has is invisibility and a wand occasionally. Gnolls however are tough and dangerous for most low levels. The most dangerous unique I have seen so far is Pikel. Mainly because of the slaves. If you have mephitic cloud though, it makes them trivial.

A rage that I have never experience before. My own ignorance is my downfall. Went around. I would have a rune.

1. Stop making threads OP.
Mildly agree.

Seriously, get real.
His exact methods are, quite openly stated (by himself, no less), "reduce quality, raise prices, squash innovation, and torment employees". He's not just the quintessential soulless businessman; he's the living embodiment of malevolent, short sighted greed.

How can I purchase a share of this enterprise?

Seriously, He is complete based around profit, over anything else. If selling high quality games garnered him a 100 million, he'd be out selling it. But, the new game industry is all about regular people. People who just don't care.

Putting on that amulet of rage and activating it could have helped you survive the poison a few more turns and maybe survive I think.

Probably would have been the smart thing to do. The main issue I found was, switching from the stealth/buff play style stalkers are built for to a venom mage spellcaster was a little too much.

Meh, So close to actually doing something, too bad I couldn't find any better attack spells.

He's not really that socialist. He is a democrat. However, general trends in the democrat party have been leaning to socialism. So he leans toward socialism.

Also:

Neoconservatives: They are the devil. They desire the death of all liberals, all moderates, all true conservatives. They want us to rot in the streets while they cut taxes and social programs. I live in California. I firsthand see how much the federal government screws us over. These people who think government is big and bad live in states where most of the federal money gets invested. So fuck them. They think just because they live in cherry hill valley, where even the raccoons are just gentle creatures, that everywhere else is similar. They alternatively tell me, to just own a gun. As if, I can "just" own a gun without dramatic consequences. Guns solve nothing, but do allow for escalation.

I'm excited for this game, but it shouldn't be called XCOM. It's a different game. It doesn't even mimic the same style.

It's not really impressive. There is nothing demonstrating the personalities of individual goblins.

I'm going to have to suggest using Love.

It is the most versatile and easy game framework I have ever seen and there's no need to worry about compiling.

Love is awesome, but it an essence makes your game open-source.

In my experience, Writing down and producing a huge idea of a game, before you have the ability to program it from start to finish is a bad bad bad idea. It's easy to get started and run into a road block were your knowledge or comprehension is way below what is necessary to continue. Instead, you should really start small.

This game gets extremely easy once you figure out how to make, mega mega towers. When I can splash the entire screen for 30,000 damage, that also slows and weakens, it gets very tedious. Also, Never delete all your range towers because you want to see if mega mega mega towers are possible

The Gaians are potentially the most unethical faction in the whole game.

Unethical or SUPER-ETHICAL. They are only trying to bring back the dominance of the poor displaced MIND FLAYING WORMS.

I didn't get that out of either of those quotes. I always figured Miriam actually was a godfearing Christian.

Nothing says that she couldn't be a godfearing Christian using her PhD in social psychology to manipulate a faction worth of people.

Still, her AI tactics are aware enough to extort you for tech that her faction couldn't develop in half a playthrough. Seems fishy that a genuine Christian fanatic would extort you for tech that her people obviously consider to be unholy.

Are you guys talking about Alpha Centauri? Personally, I always like Gaia. Nothing like MINDWORMS in the morning.

Don't take what I say to be nationalistic. I am just stating that I see people all around me who gorge themselves upon the fruits of the hard abusive work pushed upon others. I recognize that I have seen no real hard days, and all my problems are only concepts among those with real problems. I've never seen poverty, famine, disease, or war. They are in a sense isolated concepts that only those who experience them really understand them. I'd choose freedom over happiness because I live where freedom is given to me. To choose happiness would be to take.
