Lo-Fi Games talk about designing Kenshi 2 to "repeat" less for dedicated players, and also their hatred for Fondue.

      Same. I gave Kenshi a try and it didn’t click for me. Caves of Qud though, that game is pure unmitigated crack for me. Live and drink, friend.

        What state of mind do you have when enjoying coq?

        Every time I start I get like 7 levels in and a dungeon deep and it all seems pretty shallow.

        Which is a surprise for me because i thought it will be pretty much the opposite. Simple graphics, komplex mechanics.

        It has to open up, right? But then why is it rogue-like?

        Don’t know. Always quit it thinking “this is it?” and than starting again thinking “this can’t be it”.

    That would actually be awesome.

    I like Kenshi a lot. But it really feels like Gothic in that the start of any given character more or less feels identical. Same steps to get to the point where you can start doing the stuff that actually makes the game really fun. A lot of CRPGs in the 00s/early 10s had that problem and Kenshi ramps it up to 16.

    I really want to pick up Kenshi again. But the last time I touched the game I put 30 hours into it over a 3-day weekend. I fear for my free time.
