Questy Quest (QQ) (On Facebook) (By the way, I'm the Writer, >_>)

Good point. Technically this is correct, just as it is correct in modern English to say "thou art," and also "The company are" is just as correct as "The company is." Just like building a UI that has a trick to it, or using graphics with colors that purposefully clash. This too is something to get used to. And then you have to justify it, and drag out references just to make sure it's technically correct. Entire meetings to be planned over this grammar usage!

Or you could just say "mechanic is singular, so use a singular verb" and be done with it.

[schild]

RIGHT. OK.

Anyway:

I any of you want to friend me in the game, feel free. It'll increase your exp gain and stuff. Hell, you may as well friend whoever. Facebook is like that.

[Slyfeind]

I want a grammar-slaying sword!

My character is Scottman btw.

[Morfiend]

I just want to kill that rat without the game hanging on me.   

[ezrast]

Is there a way to delete my character? I don't like my name.

I find it funny that you think proper subjunctive is wrong, but find "mechanic" as singular for "mechanics" to be acceptable.

I know, I know. I won't bring it up again, promise.

I don't know! You could maybe uninstall and reinstall the app! Unfortunately, I don't have admin tools on the live server, sorry!

GRRRRRWWAAARRGGGABBLEEE

The game runs fun, until I fight a rat then it hangs. Every time. Fucking rats.

Feature. Try a different Browser, or a different computer. I assume you're at work. Unless you work for a gaming company, I'm just going to assume you're on a Packard Bell 8086, even if you're running photoshop all the time.

[Soln]

this not like Safari under OSX?  First encounter, not working (rat).  Journal not populating either.  Do you want feedback here or somewhere else?

[schild]

Here is fine! Also, worked on my mac on Firefox. I never use Safari.

[schild]

Just so you all know, next week I will be doing the following:

Abilities
Monster attack text
Supplementary Text (level up, etc)
The Second dungeon.

The week following I will probably do the third town and dungeon (which will be raid-y! except like, not)

[d4rkj3di]

I gave this 5-stars on a review. Not necessarily because I think it is 100% perfect, but someone has to offset all the 1-star reviews from mouth-breathing Facebook attention whores and Guidos who think that FarmVille is the pinnacle of Apps. Go show your support and rate it 5-stars. It's doing your small part to fight the stupid on the internet, and realistically, what shit will you be giving a month from now as the Bat Country pattern of game interest is followed.

Go vote 5 before you see something shiny.

[RUiN 427]

Ok, I'll give it a try.

[FatuousTwat]

Increases your  by 3 ?

[schild]

Increases your  by 3 ?

Your what? You can't paste an image. Each one of those icons corresponds to a stat. Some of it isn't completely clear, which I'm working on. What did the little icon look like.

[FatuousTwat]

There was no icon. In fact, I haven't seen a single image since selecting a class.

[schild]

ORLY. Hm.

[lamaros]

I have killed rat. I hope that "publish to your wall" shit doesn't pop up often.

[schild]

Only when you level. You should publish to your wall though. When you level. Because you'd be supporting me. Not some Mafia War asshat.

[lamaros]

You have the dreams and nightmares about beautiful and horrifying things.

Oh, those dreams!  

Beginning to get a small case of the TLDRs. I don't mind reading a bit sometimes, but... cut to the action, please!

Sigh, I must not have caught everything. I need to keep digging through the content. There's... a lot.

Also, lamaros, no one is telling you to read. I think most of it is worth reading because even I find some of it funny, and I wrote that shit. But it's a diku game, you know how to play. You don't need text. Press butan, kill, press butan, kill. Shortest tutorial ever. You can almost be illiterate and play this game.

I meant more that sometimes you click three pages of text in a row before you some to a fight or a choice. Or maybe I was just unlucky and it's random?

[schild]

Hm, most of the fights only have one screen. Some of the other stuff has more than one screen. Also, some of the dungeons have multiple screens of text telling a slapdash story - but for the most part, I think you're imagining that particular situation. There is a LOT of text though.

[Stephen Zepp]

This is nice man :) Love the in jokes from F13 especially, hehe.

Note to self: stay away from level 3 wolves...and don't hold your hands out near any dwarves :P

I have a feeling I'm about to be smacked for asking this, but is there anyway to see this without making a facebook account?  Yes, I'm socially stunted and refuse to make one.

I can see why someone might want to avoid making a FB account with personal info, why wouldn't you make one using a pseudonym without personal info?  That way you can play all the games and even friend people you don't even know just to exploit the FB games!

[Hawkbit]

Because the damn kids won't get off my lawn, that's why. 

In reality, it's just because I don't need something else occupying my time.  Schild's game isn't wasting time, but logging into facebook is.  Also, I'm lazy.

I have this vague fuck facebook/myspace/twitter and the horses they rode in on feeling that I've never taken the time to analyze.  I doubt you and I are alone in never having made an account.

After wasting all my points at the Q yesterday, I couldn't get to the meadow. But, finally had points, went to the dungeon, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand... Worked fine.


If this wasn't what you were talking about, I'm going to play through the whole thing and see if I can finish it. That said, Facebook is a finicky bitch, so sometimes shit just breaks that's not really broken. Bugwise, on movement and such, there aren't any bugs. I've played the game extensively on the admin side. Whenever FB says "OOPS SOMETHING IS BROKEN, THE QQ TEAM IS STILL WORKING OUT KINKS" it's really "FBML is trash and we're going to blame the QQ team."

Facebook is much less "Twittery" than the other crap out there. It's much more "opt-in/opt-out" so there's not as much random friend adds or spammy crap.

I'm seeing "Locke's Heart (requires party size 3)" Are there plans to add friends after clicking it? Like, "You don't have a party size 3, click here to invite people now!"

(Funny how I said Facebook isn't spammy, then offered a suggestion to make it so!)

[schild]

Facebook is pretty spammy. Most games require that sort of thing now. Me being a fan of it or not is pretty irrelevant. That said, hey, go ahead and invite some friends. I don't know if you can use that thing for current invites, but I would join your party. I'm fairly certain 3 is as big as it needs to be to see everything in the game at least.

That said, it'll be a week before I populate stuff past Locke's Heart (or even the dark cave and secret dungeon).

[Samwise]

Why the hell am I bludgeoning things to death with the butt end of my crossbow instead of shooting them in the face with the pointy end?

Because it's hilarious.
