What is there to do?
« on: September 16, 2006, 04:46:00 am »

ok, so you get yout adventurer to the point where you've levelled up enough that you'd have to really struggle to get killed. You can defeat any human settlement easily. What is there left to do in adventure mode?

You can always read the development plans before bed and dream pleasantly.

Seriously, the game's in alpha right now and there isn't much to do with adventure mode yet but violent rampaging.  Patience will be rewarded greatly, though, I assure you.

I didn't think the goblins posed any more of a problem than the human cities? Run through, hack everything you see, run out. Most of the difficulty was in having the patience to explore all the levels, although none of the loot was worth taking. Does anyone know where to find high quality equipment besides user-built fortresses?

I guess you're right, we'll just have to wait for the adventure mode to progress. What annoys me sometimes is when people say "work on the fortress mode, I play it much more!". Of course you'd play it more, it's better because had more attention. If the adventure mode was given as much time, I'm positive it would be every bit as entertaining!

Human settlements too easy? Start clearing the dwarf fortresses.

Are you talking about those places in the mountains with a bunch of kobolds in?

I think the fun of it so far is that the player makes all the good items in fortress mode, then the adventurer must go there to get any high level things. It really makes it feel worthwhile to design good armor, encrust it with gems, etc.
