Re: [Audyssey] Alter aeon

How do you actually go about finding areas, though? That is what
confuses me. I am level 30 mage, am actually at 86 total levels. I am
Sasanak on there btw, if anyone would like to group up with me
sometime. I really do enjoy playing in groups more than soloing, but I
would like to solo every once in a while, but as I say I have no clue
where to find good levels to go so I don't get killed. Lol.

Oh, and hey Dark, maybe you could do a podcast on Alter Aeon sometime.
That'd be wicked awesome! :D As well as probably helpful, as even
though I've been playing the game off and on for about a year, I still
really feel like a newb. Lol.

Okay, cool! I'll do that. Thanks Dentin! That makes sense.

On 12/2/13, Dennis Towne s...@xirr.com wrote:
 Honestly, I think one of the most important things to know about
 exploring areas and soloing is to aim low.  If your character is level
 30, try level 28 areas instead of level 30 areas.  Go for areas that
 are a bit weaker, so it's easier and safer to explore, until you get
 the hang of exploring.  You'll still get loads of experience, but your
 chances of dying are a lot lower.

 For actually finding areas, use the 'area' command to search for areas
 by level and continent, then the 'nearby' command to figure out
 roughly where they are.  For example, the 'area 28' command lists
 areas between level 25 and level 31.

 Remember that there's a big difference between a level 30 character
 with 85 total levels, and a level 30 character with a hundred total
 levels.  It's ok to be in lower level areas if you're not ready for
 the higher level ones.

 This is particularly true given the recent additions I've noticed in the

 Also added is personal combat, that is now when you explore derelict

 I've not tried this yet, but it's something I've wanted in the game for
 a

 So anyone who hasn't played for a while might want to get back to the

 Oh, and of course check out the db page on audiogames.net for a
 hopefully
 reasonable overview (though likely it'll need updating yet again!

 Oh, and btw, Ce has probably the single best developer in terms of vi
 access
 I know in a web game. To give an example, when reviewing the recently
 updates and reading the current guides on combat, the developer said
 things
 like and for Vi players that bar is labled as so and so!

 So, not only is vi access implicit in the game, but it's even
 continually!
 being written into new updates, which, for a game with such very heavy
 graphics as Ce is really amazing!

 Oh, I'm dark empathy on there if anyone wants to ping me, (or indeed

 It's about time for the yearly Halloween Havoc bash on Alter Aeon! We
 have events planned starting next thursday and covering the entire
 weekend.  The event schedule will be posted in-game in the next few
 days.

 There's also been a lot of updates over the last few weeks:

 Command improvements and ease of use:
 - various improvements to auto-remove
 - the 'group' casting target now ignores filtered minions
 - add a 'fame' command to help re-find moved fame
 - add 'rescue minions' to help warriors manage minion armies
 - abort now stops eqset changing
 - more blind and visually impaired support improvements

 Updates to crafting and enchanting:
 - add new command 'enchant', for enchanting items
 - add several new weapon-specific enchantments
 - add two new general enchantments
 - it is now possible to find unique/random weapons
 - add search and display of potion recipes
 - updates to potion brewing and strengthening of brew focus

 General improvements:
 - the natural stat training limit has been raised to 26
 - allow clans to set a minimum member rank for some clan functions
 - curse ward is now a normal, dispellable buff
 - enchanted handgear now works with unarmed combat

 Area and Content Updates:

 - The Monastery of Dreams has been updated and re-released on the
 island of Archais at level 29.  There are several new quests, and the
 zone is much bigger than before.

 - The North Ralnoth Slums have also been updated and re-released at
 level 29, with new quests and bosses.

 - There are also three new high level areas on the mainland:  the
 village of Xochitl and Castle Camelot at level 34 are fairly safe and
 should provide interesting quests to complete.  The third area, the
 sunken temple of Magar, is an extremely dangerous high level group
 zone and should be approached with caution.

 Finally, the new Druid class is on schedule for release near the end
 of November.  We hope to see everyone there for the release!

 It's about time for the yearly Halloween Havoc bash on Alter Aeon! We
 have events planned starting next thursday and covering the entire
 weekend.  The event schedule will be posted in-game in the next few
 days.

 There's also been a lot of updates over the last few weeks:

 Command improvements and ease of use:
 - various improvements to auto-remove
 - the 'group' casting target now ignores filtered minions
 - add a 'fame' command to help re-find moved fame
 - add 'rescue minions' to help warriors manage minion armies
 - abort now stops eqset changing
 - more blind and visually impaired support improvements

 Updates to crafting and enchanting:
 - add new command 'enchant', for enchanting items
 - add several new weapon-specific enchantments
 - add two new general enchantments
 - it is now possible to find unique/random weapons
 - add search and display of potion recipes
 - updates to potion brewing and strengthening of brew focus

 General improvements:
 - the natural stat training limit has been raised to 26
 - allow clans to set a minimum member rank for some clan functions
 - curse ward is now a normal, dispellable buff
 - enchanted handgear now works with unarmed combat

 Area and Content Updates:

 - The Monastery of Dreams has been updated and re-released on the
 island of Archais at level 29.  There are several new quests, and the
 zone is much bigger than before.

 - The North Ralnoth Slums have also been updated and re-released at
 level 29, with new quests and bosses.

 - There are also three new high level areas on the mainland:  the
 village of Xochitl and Castle Camelot at level 34 are fairly safe and
 should provide interesting quests to complete.  The third area, the
 sunken temple of Magar, is an extremely dangerous high level group
 zone and should be approached with caution.

 Finally, the new Druid class is on schedule for release near the end
 of November.  We hope to see everyone there for the release!

Re: [Audyssey] Chain Reaction

2013-04-29 Thread Allison P
Hi all. Sorry for the change of subject, but what is the site where I
can get that Chain Link game? I've been looking for a word game like
that, and it sounds like what i might want to check out. It is an
anagram game, correct? Or it is more like scrabble? Either way, I
would be interested in getting a link to where I can get it.

Also, I agree with the views expressed earlier in this thread. We
should support the few developers who are working to provide quality
games. I mean, I understand that money is tight, but it is so all
around. And it's not like these games cost very much in the scheme of
things, so it would not take long to save up enough money to be able
to buy them properly. Especialy, considering the lack of audio game
developers we are fortunate enough to have.

 I gather from both on and off list discussions with this person she is

 for whatever reason many blind people grow up being sheltered from the
 real world and are pretty naive about things like this. I think based
 on what Nicole said her comments, although insensitive, were based on
 ignorance rather than criminal intent.

 For example, she asked if there were multiple meanings for steeling.
 Well, its pretty obvious to me that she is a bit naive about things

 past, the reaction now is low to zero tolerance, indeed if this had been
 a
 subject which the member had mentioned in the past at all a comment like
 that might get someone banned instantly, (I can think of a couple of
 forum
 members who are on their last chance).

 It is explained in the faq exactly why! people shouldn't pirate games and
 what happens if people do.

 Beware the Grue!

 Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] News from Blastbay Studios, and a call for opinions

2013-04-29 Thread Allison P
Hi Phillip. Well, now i'm curious. Lol. This sounds awesome, and i am
looking forward to seeing what it is all about. Answers follow:

I really do not think having the game on a CD is necessary. Much
easier and faster to just download it.

As to size, that doesn't matter. 300 MB is no big deal for me at all.
My download speed is fairly fast, so it's all good.

Regarding the manual, I think it'd be cool to have it both in the
game, maybe a shorter, more condensed version, and then the whole
manual in HTML format on the website. If it wouldn't be too much
trouble, that is. It would just be nice to have a choice, as both the
in-game and HTML manuals do have their merits.

Lastly, I honestly don't really care about the cheat codes. Though, if
I had to choose, I'd say it would be better to have them as
unlockables in the game, without needing to pay for them. Probably
more fun for people that way.

Oh, and also I do hope you are able to work on Perilous Hearts after
this new project is finished! I had been very much looking forward to
purchasing it at some point, especially after I heard your extended
demo. However, I know time is perforce a factor here. But I am very
much looking forward to this new game you have up your sleeve, and as
I say am very curious! Thanks for letting us put in our two cents, and
I wish you the best of success with this, and all future endeavours!

 Hi Philip,

 Below are the answers to your questions.

 1. Would you like the ability to order the game on CD? This would cost
 something like 10 dollars extra including worldwide shipping.

 Answer: Not really. Chances are I would save the $10 in shipping
 costs, download the game from Blastbay Studios, and burn my own CD for
 less.

 2. How much does the size of the game matter when it comes to the
 downloadable version? Is something like 300 MB too large?

 Answer: No, I don't think 300 MB is too large. If it was larger than a
 gig I might have something to say about the download size,but 300 MB
 is perfectly reasonable on today's Internet connections.  I've
 downloaded mainstream games that were one and two gigs so 300 MB is
 small in comparison. I don't believe it should be a big problem for
 most of your customers from Europe and United States since most places
 now use high speed Internet these days.

 3. In what format would you prefer to have the manual? Narrated inside
 the game, available in text format, or both?

 Answer: I think you should supply your manuals in HTML format. Besides
 looking more professional than plain text it makes it easier to look
 up information by clicking links to jump to sections or using header
 navigation to jump from section to section quickly. I know it takes a
 bit longer to prepare a manual in HTML, but I think it is much better
 than a plain text manual.

 4. If the game contained cheat codes and you had to beat it in order
 to unlock them, would you want the ability to buy them for something
 like 5 dollars without having to earn them? This applies to other un
 lockable content, as well.

 Answer: Hmm...I think that is up to you. Personally, I don't use cheat
 codes much anyway so I'd be more likely to earn them through playing
 and beating the game than to pay $5 to cheat my way through the game.
 I don't hold with cheating as I generally find it ruins the experience
 for me personally.

 Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Revisiting dragon pass

2013-04-13 Thread Allison P
Hey Dark, are there any other games like Sryth out there? I assume you
know waht Sryth is...basically it's a browser based fantasy type game.
Not quite an rpg, but sort of. Sryth is cool, don't get me wrong, but
it gets rather, well, boring, and the whole melee rating and adventure
token reliance is sort of putting me off from playing it anymore. I do
like that genre of game though, but I don't know of many browser based
fantasy games sadly, so thought I would ask here. Oh, and I hope your
arm is doing better btw. *smile*

Re: [Audyssey] Revisiting dragon pass

2013-04-13 Thread Allison P
Thank you, sir! Will definitely check all of those out. Funnily
enough, I did listen to the podcast you did for Blind cool Tech, about
the fighting fantasy games. Enjoyed it, and always meant to check the
ff project out, but kinda forgot about it. Heh. I love that whitestick
page! Very useful. I did not know that he had a games page too,
though.

Hey, um, would you mind terribly if I wrote you off list? I wanted to
ask you something, but I wasn't sure if you wanted to give personal
info out on the list so thought I would refrain.

 Hi Alisan.

 I actually know sryth very well. Back in 2004 when it was just a free game,

 before there was any commercial signup I was very much a fan and played
 endlessly, I was even 2nd on the leaderboards for a couple of years, but in

 2009 I pretty much abandoned I pretty much abandoned sryth for exactly the
 reason you mention, it just seemed the gm was bumping up difficulty
 unreasonably and requiring massive donationsto perchice the higher level
 weapons to complete standard adventures, not to mention all the lotteries,
 timed events, stat grinding etc, it frankly seemed the gm just got reedy to

 me and his writing suffered.

 There are lots of online games kicking around, for more details see the
 games to play online page over at www.whitestick.co.uk.

 Many games however get a bit grindy aand are lacking in the text or have
 very quick battles.

 In particular I'd advise trying puppet nightmares, which has a fantastic
 battle system and a very interesting story, plus you control and take charge

 of pokemon like weerd surreal creatures making it also a creature game, and

 core exiles, a fantastic and very different story driven space adventure.
 That one has many stratogy elements, but also lots of sapce to explore and
 missions to do.

 Warriors 2 is also fun, especially with the random adventure system, though

 in that game unfortunately battles are all automatic, and I'd also recommend

 metroplexities, a cyberpunk style rpg game set in a distopian future.
 kingdom of loathing is good for comedy value, though unfortunately I've
 found the dayly adventure limit in that game a bit too strenuous, and while

 I enjoy the humour I don't find the story has me come back for more as
 much.

 I would also recommend looking at whitestick's online gamebooks page. these

 are interactive stories, but with full rpg mechanics, some requiring rolling

 of dice. In particular age of fable and those on the fighting fantasy
 project webiste are worth a look.

 hth.

 Hth.

Um, well, okay then. Here goes. Heh. Please don't take this the wrong
or anything, I don't mean to sound all stalker-ish or whatever, but
well, I would kind of like to get to know you better off-list. I've
listened to your podcasts, as I say, and I think you and I would
probably get along pretty well. I mean, you're a philosopher, and I,
whilst not a philosopher per se, certainly like discussing
philosophical topics occasionally, and of course audio games and
suchlike. So, I was wondering if you had Facebook, or maybe even
Skype. It'd be neat to have, you know, a dialogue sometime. Plus, you
just sound like a cool dude. *grin* So, if you do have FB and wanna
add me, do feel free. My name on there is Ceridwyn Bloodfang. I'll not
put my Skype info out here, but I can send it to you off list if you'd
like. If you have Skype, that is. Lol.

 As to the ffproject, well i like gamebooks generally, and ffproject as
 opposed to say the projectaon site does have the advantage of doing the
 stats and dice rolling for you, though it's worth learning to do this
 yourself since some of the books on sites like chronicles of arborell or
 project.aon are well worth playing.

 All the best,

 there is a puppet nightmares forum, you might try creating an account there

 I don't believe however the forum had a similar problem.

 If that doesn't work, you can find a form to contact the admin of puppet

 Hi Nicole,

 Not sure how to get in touch with the developer of Puppet Nightmares,
 but I'm sure someone here can help you create an account. Although, I
 will say that capcha  is difficult to hear weather you are partly
 hearing impaired or not. Although, I can try if you want me to, and
 even if I can't do it I might be able to have my wife do it since she
