I could swear Cris mentioned this, but I can't find it anywhere. It would be very nice if there was some notification that you found the last script page in the Cube quest if you're in a run where you start with the Sidekick from the beginning.

Corrupt Shadow

Crap! We start over too often.

And I think it's time to start from beginning - the game and conversation =P

... be wrong. Instead of hiding behind opinion like it's some kind of shield, how about you back it up with something? Here, I'll even give you a start: In a run where you're using ranged weapons, what non-donation hat is better than Mecha Nist's helmet for general retcon use?

... one I previously proposed, would be to have them be one time unlock and purchase, but you purchase the ability to rent them for a run. So when you start a new run, you can choose an item you've already unlocked and purchased, without paying for it multiple times. I highly doubt that can do anything ...

... in which case it's not needed). The sub-ma-car is an alternative if you have a strong off-hand item. In terms of weapons, for ranged I start with whatever I can get - then if reflexes>strength, I go with epetomious nail gun (lvl 2 easier bought than pulled), Ball bearing cannon (lvl ...

This used to be the case, but it's been changed to open when you start the quest. It does warn players that the location may be a bit tough. (Somewhere. In the journal?)

Thanks, I'll check that.

Once you start the quest, it opens. I had the tavern at level 1.

Pretty sure, at least.

Can you believe it never occurred to me anyone would start the quest and not finish it? Heh. Well, I'll look into that.

Which I didn't. In fact, I didn't even start - I just went to get the level 10.5 quest, this was a byproduct.

I've said from the start I don't /want/ to do these runs. I don't think there's any point to them in and of themselves. I'm going to do one after the current maso run, because you all think it's so difficult. I'm simply going to prove ...

... switch over from inky as mother night once I had a decent supply of PP. I would probably level up from 1 to 2, since it's only 50 xp, and then start the quests. Then you'd totally NOT have a good run time. Your turns would be WAY too long.

72%, based off 33 encounters. Dont trust that number. Furthermore, Its not necessary to start quests before using all the squid discs, because having the ability to wear sneakiers could maximize the noncombat rate (rolled doll, garcia, sneakiers, stealth for non-Iotm). ...

... if you get full output from the disc using cephalopod, 450 is the max, to get from 50 xp to level 5. But if one was smart, they would actually start using turns and only use the forbidden etiquette when they had finished all the quests and were xp grinding, since that means they need less of ...

But what you're not seeming to get is that if you're level 7/8 when you start the quests, you won't need skills even if you don't have iotms. It's fairly simple- listen up now- Use discs to get up to level 6, 7, 8- even 9 if you wanted to, although that seems ...

That's great writing -- hitting both audiences at the same time. 3) The mechanic is also good because a) in no-pull runs you can 'start' the quest before you hit the level to get the quest from Rand. You can start adventuring to collect computer parts while leveling up to hit the ...

Haha. This run will cost a day more than it should, because i forgot to start the level 2 quest, and it's 2 AM, so i can't start it!

TNT was how I was in Triassic at level 6. Bah. Incompetence, I tells ya. When prepping for retcon, I'd routinely start in Triassic at LEVEL ONE. (Wearing two silver stars, Insane breastplate, wielding Atmos, etc.) Usually calling lightning followed by a fruitcake would work on ...

That message is there because you're currently catalyzing something. Therefore, you can't start another until the first is finished and it can't show you the catalyze options. Thus - Your catalyzer unit is already busy on another item right now.

In my experience, when a game creator starts asking the players what they want him to work on next, it really means he doesn't want to work on any of them right now. :D That's half right, I guess. Obviously I've put off malls and leagues for ...

Zillow had the idea of a note on the retcon page. It could be above the final button and could just put the note if you have a recyclonizer.

Or whatever the buttons say.
