The Wormest Dungeon

Ah, the Dream17 Estate. Once a proud place where people from all around the realm would come to discuss the latest strategies, appreciate the newest fan-art, hear strange tales of dreams and vending machines, and possibly even engage in a round of Worms or two. But years of decay and abandonment have left the place in shambles, no longer a place of dignity, but instead the home of spammers, cheaters, bots, and worse of all... newbies.

It's time to take it back. Restore the glory of the estate and find out what lurks beneath these darkened posts. Starting with... you four.

This here is Darkest Dungeon. I heartily recommend it if you like getting mercilessly killed in a turn-based roguelike RPG fashion.

Awesome. Never heard of this before, but I'm all about it. I'm ready to crusade.

Ooooooooh boy, this should be fun. Taking bets on who goes insane first, I'm guessing Slick.

Haha, nice. I've seen this in action before, and it's quite a thing.

Let the adventure begin! This first update is gonna be big for the benefit of those new to the game, as we progress I'll just focus on interesting events. Might have to make the images smaller though...

Image
There are many locations in our future, but for now we can only visit the Ruins.

Image
Image

This place is crawling with skeletons, but Zeor and Slick make short work of them before they even get a hit on us.

Image

The environment is our enemy here as well. Start digging!

Image
Image
Image

We get the drop on another pair of skeletons and cultists.
This time it's HK's chance to shine, while the rest clean up the mess with just a few scratches.

Image
Image
Image

As we get deeper into the ruins, the fights get tougher.
The undead don't appreciate HK's spiritual powers and nearly crit her to death. Will she make it?

Image
Image

Luckily Paul is able to keep them occupied while she heals herself, as Zeor and Slick lay down the finishing blows.

Image
Image

This happens a lot. You know Paul, maybe if you didn't wear that damn ugly mask all the time you could see where you're going.

Image
Image
Image

However despite his serious injuries he still plays a valuable support as we deal with more skeleton incursions.

Image

Hey Zeor, we're supposed to be a party, quit hogging all the loot.

Image

Goddammit guys there's no I in TEAM

Image

We're looking worse for wear but we still have enough supplies to keep us going.

Image
Image

Oof, that was a rough start. Not only do they get the drop of us, they also put us in very bad combat positions.

Image
Image

They immediately take advantage of poor old Paul. Badly hurt and badly stressed, will this be his breaking point?

Image
Image
Image
Image

No! What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and with that renewed courage we manage to dispatch the remaining enemies without any losses.

Image
Image

These dungeons don't just wear out your physical but your mental state as well. At least we came out richer.

Image

Next, we all get drunk and can continue on the Ruins, or visit the Warrens, the Weald or the Cove? Vote now!

No. I crusaded all this loot by myself. You guys saw it. You were there killing all the other stuff.

Hey, do you know how much time and effort it takes to... find one of those masks somewhere and call yourself a doctor?

Anyway. I vote cove, just because I think it sounds the most scenic.

Arr, I vote Cove, matey 'cause a pirate I be. 8-)

It's funny how HuntaKilla is in all these and yet she hasn't been on the board for ages. I mean, I understand why as it's nice to have a female character in things not just all guys but it's funny that she's appearing in all this stuff without even knowing about it (unless she's lurking...which I guess is possible).

In this case it's because the characters are random, so I try to name them what fits best (eg. Zeor has a sword, Paul has potions), and we only have one female member. Unless NZKiwi is still hanging around. :P

Yeah, I've been thinking that. I think last time she was around, she mentioned she was being eaten by Fallout 4, which I can respect. If she comes back, she sure has a pile of varyingly-funny-or-just-cringey Australian jokes waiting.

I hope she isn't offended by her portrayal in my game. As I said in the other thread, I put in real Australian slang so it wasn't completely cartoonish. Plus, there are hints that some of it is her messing with the player: "Come on Threepwood, play along". Plus, it's not all Aussie jokes in the game, she has other facets of her character. Even if those other traits are enjoying violent pranks and thinking everyone's a dingo. :P

Anyway, sorry for going off-topic, Sup. TO THE COVE!
