[Itsatumor]

[756secret]

This is either a weird Doctor Who Villan or a fan made DC villan.

WARNING SPOILERS!!!! DON'T READ UNLESS YOU WATCH AFTER 12:00

lol pew pew kaboom got pew pew'd and went kaboom.

[nerdyboy2k7]

On the newer versions there is a mental mutation called psychometry which lets you reverse engineer most things

[hiverhythm]

Holy jesus that's terrible luck. No wildlife in sight and then in one turn dead.

[hiverhythm]

Such terrible picks for mutant human. Mutant humans are a lot easier, at least early game.

[ofthefog]

I tried phasing once. It killed me with a principle.

[LukeDeathbane]

''its right next to jaffa, how hard can it be?'' Famous last words

[zarteen]

Are seedspitters even smart enough to have lairs/legendary status? I mean what the hell did it do, kill a dragonfly?

[ofthefog]

@zarteen There was nothing there though, so maybe it killed it all.

[TheSonOfRNG]

If I must tell the truth, Plump's the better at LPing roguelikes (mostly becouse of his storytelling abilities), but you sure get all the hilariousness in those videos.

[PowerfrogsBeotch]

Man watching this has got me into these games. I have so much more crap to waste time on!

I've seen a little of your dwarf fortress videos before but it never stuck at the time, i'm gonna go back and watch them soon though :)

Also: Ever consider putting all your texty games into 1 playlist (while keeping seperate ones of course) in the order uploaded? They do kinda fall into the same catagory.

[Vendayn]

I've been having tons of fun in Caves of Qud...even donated 5 dollars to them :) If it wasn't for you, I would probably never heard of CoQ.

[Talvara]

in response to the people who don't like this,

I do like this :) keep on slaughtering post apocaliptic horrors bro.

[lurtze1]

where do you get that AWESOME music jeff?

[GrimithR]

8:32- "How bad could it be?" Sar, THE SEED-SPITTING VINE OF LEGEND, demands your respect!

11:19- Sar is so legendary, he has rifle turrets spit for him.

20:38- "Sometimes I feel like I've got to EHN EHN run away..." I know it's tainted, not jilted, but come on. You got ravaged by unrequited love, bro.

Also, ROFL ROFL ROFL @ evocation/fire wizard spec.

[Pasakoye]

I chose evil twin and he was friendly. =/

[Suckmydeathstars]

does anybody know the track that starts at about 9:00?

[Dakau456]

The zealot in Joppa will sometimes attack and be slain by Argyve. the guy that want the trinkets/ artifacts from you. And you go through mutants like i go through true humans.

[Dakau456]

The zealot in Joppa will sometimes attack and be slain by Argyve. the guy that want the trinkets/ artifacts from you.

[Atomaround]

Anyone know the name of track/music that starts playing around 41 minutes?

Also, thanks for LPing this Jef. It's given me something to do other break. Managed to get a character to level 9 before I got swarmed with crap.

[keikuru1]

really enjoying this now, at first i didn't get it but now it's really cool to watch. i hope you keep making these.

[tomek123kotek]

for armor, from what i remember the first number is the defence and the socond is the dodge, the dodge can be a - if the armor is heavy but usually that means that the defense is high

[tomek123kotek]

i came across my evil twin one zone west of jappa and i managed to one hit kill him

[unwaryrince]

Toast is OP :D

[minipancho94]

so the evil twin kills you no matter what or do you have to fight it and have a chance to win?

[karry299]

@minipancho94

Evil twin is actually one of the best defects, its very easy in most cases to kill him. Even though he is a complete copy of you - he has roguelike AI instead of your brain. For example evil twin has no idea how to use force wall, so he never uses it.

[Easytoremembermember]

Loved the explanation at 16:40

[UnusualResults]

I absolutely adore mutants.

My favorite powers are the digging claws, and light manipulation, which gives you natural light and LAZERS!!!!

PEWPEW

[Gibbles3000]

If only poor little Pew Pew qud have seen that coming.

[titytit]

i've just noticed how ironic Pew Pew Kaboom's name is.....

Rifle turret: Pew pew

Character: KABOOM! *dead*

[KesSharann]

I would much rather see Caves of Qud.

[jcanci3]

FUCK YEAH JEF I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA QUIT! FUCK HATERS QUD ROCKS

[CappyAnon]

I enjoy watching you play Caves of Qud more than dying in it myself, which is saying something mind you.

Ignore them' puttin' down da' black man. Play Qud. They just jelly.

[PokyCZ]

Who wouldn't want it? This game is awesome

[unormal]

FYI: Mental Mutations effective level is adjusted by your Ego modifier. (So if you have a -3 ego modifier, mental mutations will still act as level 1 mutations all the way up to level 4) This does not apply to Physical Mutations.

Your Willpower modifier will apply a penalty or bonus to your Mental Mutation cooldowns. This does not apply to Physical Mutations.

[MasterAsra]

@unormal So does that mean having a low Ego would let you spend less mutation points on upgrading analytical thinker? Turning you into some horrific 40 INT 2 EGO monster?

[MasterAsra]

@MasterAsra Oh and you seem to be in the know, does beak actually do anything?

[unormal]

@MasterAsra It doesn't change the cost, mutations are 1 MP per level no matter what the effective level is.

[MasterAsra]

@unormal I guess I encountered a bug. On one of my mutants I couldn't raise analystical thinking because it said I did, but didn't actually add the int or lower the ego.

[karry299]

@unormal

"Your Willpower modifier will apply a penalty or bonus to your Mental Mutation cooldowns. "

Not actually true. Unlike other attributes, every point in Willpower reduces your cooldown. Its not based off modifier. I dont know if its a bug or what, but i'd rather have that. It sucks having to get six levels to increase your carrying capacity.

[Hellhound47]

Frickin' A, Qud must continue!

More Herp, another Derp,

and Land of Opportunity and Adventure!

[Alectr0n]

Aw yeahhhh your roguelike let's plays are originally why I subscribed to you.

[knightedtemplar]

I hear Loreena Mckennitt in the background in the background there, good choice.

[LiqnLag]

Ego is critical for mutants like int is for tinkerers. Mutant skills can actually improve (i.e. level up) based on your Ego. And btw, all those crappy wooden bucklers you are ignoring? place one of them on your arm.

[karry299]

@LiqnLag

No its not. Ego only improves mental mutations.

[termion]

Pew Pew Kaboom's name was prophetic.

[hokalol]

Ego and Willpower power up mental Mutation's.

[Mihomiti]

Superman can go through walls, light fires, and shoot laser beams.

[Gmodhacka]

I approve of being a mutant.
