    Why couldn't this have been more like a roguelike?
    I don't really know, but it could have been great as say, something along the lines of Elona. You can have multiple companions with you, lots of text and interesting stuff everywhere. Overworld map travel, and a relatively vast and eventful world.
    You can even build relations, get married, and get a kid with stats and abillities inherited from the parents which you can use to create a new character with in the future. Now that migth be taking it a bit too far, but the whole relations and getting married thing is kind of cool.
    Not to be speaking of how cool it is to travel the world with your buddies and build museums and various shops and cities in order to form your empire while you do quests for other kingdoms and people.

    But then again, even something like Azure Dreams would have been nice. You had at least one companion, though you could have more. In the city you did lots and lots of stuff, and interacted with all kinds of people and had influence in what direction the city would grow, and how people would perceive you.
    I sort of thinks it is bit of a shame, but I guess it is because the idea didn't start on /tg/.

    It is a fantasy game in production. It tries/tried to be full to the brim with /tg/ and /v/ stereotypes, but in a sort of humerous/half-serious manner.

    But yeah, it is no card game, and it is no roguelike or even a game like Fallout or Baldur's Gate.
    But at least it tries to be /tg/.

    It has been /tg/ related because of the hypothetical "choose three allies and a villain" which made it into an RP setup. Which we can and should still do but the development of the vidya of it has lead to endless bitching.

    How about a fresh approach at that idea?

    CHOOSE THREE BROS, AND ESCRIBE WHAT HAPPENS AT THE INN/CAMP/ETC.

    Completely ignoring how there are multiple music tracks done/in development that are open to the public.

    Images and music can easily be shared once done, or even before its done.
    Code, needs to actually make a closed circle of sorts, in order to compile correctly. It is also a relatively huge task to complete.

    I love Elona. If certainly hope that this game will manage to become even a fraction of how good that game is.
    One of the best rogue likes ever created.

    Though sadly I find myself to thinkt hat Elona will be everythng BroQuest is not, as far as code goes. Wheras BroQuest will be what Elona is not as far as art goes.
    Contrary to what it might look like due to all the RPG maker and other open source sprites, Elona's engine is something else entirely, and it is a well crafted game.

    What is everyone's buttfrustration with the Catgirl? So the guy who's making it likes his design over another fan's. They both get across the Cliche catgirl image pretty well, why be upset? If he just dropped every design in the game because some fan likes their own desing better we'd get nowhere.

    Facing is incorrect.

    Scale is too small.

    Even the cropping is incorrect and too low on the character.

    Further more, the artist who did that pic was asked to redo it, to match the rest of the characters, but decided not to. Not to mention that the artist isn't on the Dev team, so they couldn't use that design regardless.

    And if they are, then they will have a feisty kitty to deal with, unless she welcomes the matter of course. But she is a proper girl, she only devotes herself to one man, of whom she deems worthy, despite what her tribe and heritage says.

    Silly catfag, you've not been befriended by your dozens of cats, you've been claimed.To a cat humans are furniture, fixtures, sources of heat and food, groomers.

    A non-sociable species does NOT have the cerebral pathways for empathy, self awareness and selfless cooperation. Cats cannot initially pass the mirror test, even if they can be taught to ignore the reflex.

    Domestication in cats and dogs rewarded sociable behavior and other traits humans found desirable, as those were the ones that got the most handouts and tolerance for scavenging from the prehistoric nomads.

    Cats, like dogs, have a symbiotic relationship with humans and have are the product of a natural selection based on which cats were most appealing to humans.

    A fair bit of it can be chalked up to Neoteny

    Raised by humans, Cats retain a number of kittenlike behaviors for their entire lifespans. They remain social rather than solitary, they vocalize to communicate.

    And they don't only modify their behavior for humans. If you raise a kitten in a household with a dog, or a turtle, the cat will behave amicably with those other species, without interpreting them as potential predators or prey.

    Neoteny happens to humans too. It's been one of the most aggressive factors in our recent evolution. We're relatively hairless, have proportionately huge brains, and get along well with others all because we've come to retain childlike characteristics.

    an ARTIFICIAL selection brah, and most recent work on "domestication fenotypes" and the origins of cattus sylvestris variants suggest that the domestication of cats was mostly done by the cats themselves, and it's closer to the way rats, mice and seagulls became urbanized. If we killed only the agressive and ugly rats instead of all the ones we can see, they'd be clingy and possessive, not sneaky.

    some fag in my uni claimed his lab mice behaved more like mini-cats than like vermin mice, but anecdotes are just bullshit written funny.

    I don't know.

    From it's humble beginnings as a simple MS Paint doodle for /tg/, I always found that Broquest, as it's come to be called, was more about picking what kinds of party members you'd want to have in a game or campaign, rather than each of them being balanced.

    Initially, the Catgirl was supposed to be there as the romantic interest. The buxom and just-enough-animalisms-to-seem-exotic character who was portrayed as friendly. It wasn't well drawn, but you knew that the character existed to be the type to wrench your nutbladder and make you want to white-knight over. It wasn't there to be a powerful or useful character, but a low-end jack-of-all-trades that you connect with emotionally throughout the game, rather than just another warm body to fill a role.

    Now, I find that it's a far cry from it's original theme. The character looks to have gone from being Cuddly to being... Catty; Its' foreign-girl-next-door sex appeal reduced and others' sex appeals raised. At this point, it just doesn't seem like it's trying to be the same character it started as.

    Some folks on /tg/ have said that it was dumb and needed changing because it was "Supposed to be an RPG, not a dating sim", but I saw the whole point of picking your party for some abstract game as also dictating what kind of game you wanted to play. Sure, if you wanted The Vengeful Viking, the Dickass thief, and the Drunken Dwarven Monk, you could play that more combat-and-subterfuge oriented game, but you shouldn't be refused the option to just have a lighthearted game with your bro, pet dog, and busty catgirl girlfriend.

    Can someone explain to me how both the Evil Warrior AND the Invincible Warlord exist? It seems to me that the Warrior would either be among the Warlord's ranks or the two would have ended up having a fight to the death at some point.

    Also, why does the Fallen Hero has a high Domination score but a low Destruction stat? He seems like he'd be a powerful warrior if he's the one that strikes down anyone who goes after his princess, and there's not a lot of domination/deception when it comes to that, unless he's become a necromantic knight or some shit.

    I don't see why he'd come into possession of the sword or be corrupted by it though. Isn't the general idea that he's a strong-willed, 'good' person who is otherwise forced to commit evil due to a twist of fate? The whole 'evil sword corrupting someone' usually requires the host to have a weak will or a strong lust for power, neither of which seem to match the Fallen Hero. This seems especially unlikely considering that the Fallen Hero has a Domination stat that's higher than the Sword's Deception stat.

    Personally, I'd like to see the Cursed Sword

    Personally I like the Cursed Sword. However, I would prefer a Wakfu-style cursed sword that plays mindgames in order to find a host, and are more set on being released than finding a 'host'. Also no HERPA DERP YOU TOUCHED ME WITHOUT PLOT ARMOR DEUS EX MACHINA UP IN THIS BITCH bullshit.

    I understand it's supposed to be powerful, but when the sword actually DOES something to get a host (for example, Rubilax tricking his naive and short-tempered guardian into freeing him with promises of power, revenge, and the like. A cursed ring from the same lore that was able to corrupt her guardian after making him fall in love with her.) it's just so much more interesting than 'so-and-so is compelled to steal the sword and run'.

    I guess the equivalent would be if the 'Suave But Dubious Devil' archetype never sweet-talked or tricked anybody, he just mind-dominated them into doing what he wanted. It's less interesting.

    Friendship is actually an in game stat that effects how quickly you can use ComBro moves. It goes up during the game, mostly during events but also slowly when you fight alongside them. "Brotential" is a cap on that friendship and a select few situations raise or lower that cap. The word works fine.
