Yeah, I beat the whole game in one unintentional sleep-deprived hazy trippy sitting about six months ago. Most levels can be boiled down to a set of steps that, if executed properly, work most of the time. It's lightly randomized, so sometimes you won't get the item you need or an enemy will populate in an inconvenient spot for you, but each level has a basic pattern.
One of the best things I think about this game is that it sometimes just works best when you stop trying to figure it out, and just make a mad dash through, attacking everything you see.
It's kind of fun to throw a bunch of guns in a room and then shoot someone and run back in your bolt hole, shooting everyone that comes through the door.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Correction in comments, I'm still mad Ok, I found out the 5e allosaurus from Tomb of Annihilation was only CR2 and was outraged, so I made a comparison of a D&D character and allosaurus specimen MOR 693. Then I compared the allosaurus to a polar bear, also CR2. The bear has 5HD and the allosaurus has 6HD. So, I take it back. CR 2 is fine.
A phenomenal game. I envy you playing it for the first time.

ReplyDeleteYeah, the dudes in the south room won't stay put and keep interrupting me.
