[MOD] Demiosis Domain

[podbelski]

...with low gfx settings I killed the warchief relatively easy - just a couple of my chars died))

I also completed the Forbidden vault. Was not able to solve the scrolls puzzle and 3 items puzzle, my understanding it's not possible if you don't have all the required items on you.
I also saw an altar at the 'spiritual' plane, did not tried to find a way to it b/c was already very frustrated by save/loading, that place is way too tough IMO.
And the first encounter with Demiosis also forced me to save/load too much for a comfortable game experience...

I'm currently right before the battle with two resurrected minions of Demiosis... and I already feel a bit bored by it maybe tomorrow I'll try to finish off the game, I assume the end is close

I wrote about them in my review:

My secret count might have been even better but i have to say that i could not complete two riddles at the end of the optional forbidden vault due to not having the right things on me and one does not get a second chance here which IMO is ok!

Still retrieving more of the needed stuff and re-doing it is always an option either from an earlier savegame or thru 2nd playthru.

As InspiredHate wrote in his mod's description:

The Forbidden Vault Floor is not mandatory and can only be compleated once
The forbidden vault is the *I hate you you're gonna die floor*

[Inspiredhate]

The forbidden vault is meant to test your patience and your perseverance. I wanted to split the real heroes of the simple adventurers and i think I've nailed that part haha.

))) don't take my whining seriously, the mod is great! ... well I could put in some criticism, but don't think anyone cares))

btw who is the author of the music? Some tunes are just brilliant, and I also was impressed by the athmosphere of the 12 level, before you open gates to the central 'cultist' place

[Dr.Disaster]

Don't be so sure about that. You can check back on page 1 that my first post contains quite a bit of criticism and some of it was indeed heard.

[Inspiredhate]

for the musics I've got some songs from differents games / authors, I tried to get a song suited for each wings of my dungeon to give them a feeling, also yhea criticisim is indeed welcome but bear that im already aware of the ogre boss fps problem and no on/off music and that im working on that in the moment.

[podbelski]

ugh... I already hate the final battle (I hope it is final). Just too tough, too much poison, too many 'octopuses'. I think I reloaded more than 50 times already, maybe even 100 who counts))
I'm afraid I won't complete this battle, as two my chars are out of any projectiles, so I have a mage and a swordsman. Now Demiosis spawns its own clones, how much HP does he still have?

I'm also not a fan of buttons that mostly open doors/walls far away. Sometimes it's good, but overused in this mod...
Maybe the 12 plates puzzle is a bit too obscure, not sure.

Overall it's a very good dungeon... probably, if you ask what is the biggest annoyance/problem I'd say: poison. At least for me it goes like "got poisoned - reload" about 90% of the times

SpoilerShow

You made it to the final phase of the battle. My hint would be to save some projectiles, at least the weakest ones (rocks/throwning knifes/darts) for this part. Helps a lot with the clones.

[Inspiredhate]

I suggest saving between the phases and also use the sling wich is the most op weapon in the game lulz * the fact that you can gather the rocks you've trown make's it EXTREMELY powerfull.* And yhea now is the time to use every ressources you have to survive. Also , tell me how many cave nettles do you still have in your inventory?

[podbelski]

yep the sling is my only hope)) and I'm save-loading constantly in this fight.

I have a few cave nettles, can't say exactly atm, maybe 5 of them. And just ran out of healing herbs. Bombs as well
