If it's a scene you consider important, such as a dramatic tweest or the reveal of an important character, do color. Otherwise, it's not that important

Okay.
While I'm here, is there something I'm doing fundamentally wrong? Is there anything you want to see improved on? Is my breath bad?

I mean I know it's way too early to tell, but if there's some rule I've broken or if a central element of the quest is setting me on the brink of disaster I'd be grateful to know.

If you're worried about the low posting rate, don't be. Not all quests get an incredibly high readership right from the start. Most people wait for something to catch their interest first, or for something exciting to happen before they start. I personally haven't suggested yet, but I'll start to help give you that extra boost.

The art is nice, and it seems to be going fine so far, so it'll be something to watch as time goes by. Keep up the good work.

On Euphilomachy Day, December 25th, the hardy Oikalosians celecbrate the victory of the Church over their imperialist oppresssors. The priests and priestesses give grenades and other weapons to the good little boys and girls, to battle the vicious enemies of Oikalos. The bad little boys and girls are given rocks and snowballs, for the same purpose.

I have been happily lurking the quest thus far. Excellent work on the nation backgrounds.

While it is helpful to get the opening down in a hurry, once you have the first few scenes down I would not be opposed to a slower update rate, especially in dangerous or complex situations. It's always frustrating when I check on a quest to find someone has done something silly because of poor suggestions in the three hours since I checked in last.

I think your drawings are clean enough to not require color on every update, but it's nice to have occasionally.

I can smell your breath from here though.

Yo, question: What kinda tech have we got? Power armor is obviously near-future stuff, but rifles for grunts seems more WWII level.

Most of the tech is adapted from things found in the Vaults, so the levels of advancement vary widely in different areas. There is power armor and other technological augmentations, but in other places (including guns) technology is lacking. Fabrication is still lagging behind, so weapon levels are mostly in WWII territory, with notable exceptions and some more advanced weapons gaining artifact or legendary status.

So are the Oikalosians given masks that they wear upon birth, and never take off, or do they wear them at all times?

Neither.

It's mostly just a fashion statement. There was an old tenet of Eupholism that stated that every other month the men had to wear mask and hood to cover themselves due to some old moral parable about Eupholis and the Goddess Ersimone at a hot springs, but the women wanted in too, then it became a year-round thing, then it just became like, say, jeans are today.
Some don't wear them, but many do.

Sup Brom.

You were killed by a grenade.
Watch for the grenade indicator.

...In a good way?

I don't really want to archive Vault Quest until there's a wiki page up, out of some misplaced hubris and belief that people will actually go looking for it. Should I make the page, or will other people? I'm told that making it yourself is a breach of good taste, and I am also terribad at wikis.

>making it yourself is a breach of good taste
Pfeh.

You've got a glorious stub now anyway. :V

So I'm Vault Quest guy, but everyone already knew that because I am shitty at hiding it and am a shitty person in general.

What's next? Vault Quest chapter 2 or do I jolt Oren back to life from the graveyard? If I were to do the latter the combat would get a lot more Vault-y because I like how Vault Quest's combat turned out.

Oh god what. Brom
I
what.
I'm sorry, but my brain can't put the two together right now.
Fucking my mind
what.

I really liked Vault Quest. But you also said, some time many months ago, that Oren was nearly done. So I think you should get Oren done and then we can have more vault crawling goodness.

Wiki updated! We know your secrets now.

While I do enjoy Oren I'm really looking forwards to more Vault Quest soldiering and looting so I say Vault Quest 2.

>>340301
Needs more Oren.

Oren it is!

Let the thread necromancy begin.
