now for ganon's true super powered form thats actually way easier
zelda had a sex change operation and took up her true calling
touching final momenst with zelda
alrighty im done
was i the last one to finish?
ix hasnt 100% done their hat in time but i think hes done his goal
next time i think im just making this a triforcehunt, screw that glitchy ganon fight
also text rando was more annoying than fun
True
Thanks for joining me in the Archipelago game for January 2024. The playthrough file ends with Ixnaut, FlitterOoT, Ixhat, Chipknight, Kratta, Meganoot in this order. I've included the spoiler log. The game had 2479 checks in 40 spheres.
Hello, everyone! I'm starting another Manechat Asynchronous Archipelago Game, with the intent of running until the end of February. If you're interested, please read the list of available games https://archipelago.gg/games and pick one or more games to run, then ping me so I can keep track of you and help you out with any problems.
The game will start February 1st or as soon as everyone RSVPs.
@fresh hill, @lament tusk, @wet field, @fierce vale you're invited, since you played last month's game. Everyone else is also welcome to join!
For next game I'm playing Ocarina of Time, A Short Hike, and Rogue Legacy or Rollercoaster Tycoon.
RCT is on the rando? how does that even work? you need to complete every scenario?
I have no idea
There's some sort of shop, difficulty and length options, traps
It sounds fun
how does a Super Mario 64 randomiser work
just randomises stars into other games i think
i'm likely going to see for setting up hat in time again, hollow knight, and celeste if it works
waow
I think @sage dawn played Super Mario 64 randomizer so she might be able to tell you in detail. My impression is that it randomizes levels, switches, key items and stars
more info
im tempted to try that but i also suck at sm64 lol
did when i was a kid, do as an adult
hmm
raft is tempting
subnautica is suprisingly easy in the rando
Apparently old school RuneScape is now in archipelago
oh ok
someones also making a manual one for league of legends
It's not manual anymore
neat!
This is a Randomizer for OSRS's Free To Play mode. It would entail creating a new account as an Ironman and progressing the account up through to completion of Dragon Slayer I. Playing requires the use of a RuneLite plugin to handle unlocks and assign tasks.
Unlockables include:
- Map Chunks
- Tiers of weapons, armor, and tools
Tasks include:
- Quests
- Randomly generated skill tasks based on your options
- Specific monsters to seek out and kill
- Account progression milestones, such as total level, XP, and combat levels
Options:
- Choose your starting area (Default, specific cities, "Any Bank" and "Chunksanity")
- Whether or not to disallow "Brutal" grinds (such as needing to level all the way to smelting gold using only bronze bars)
- A maximum amount and maximum level for tasks in each skill
- A minimum amount of general progression tasks
The plugin interfaces with the `region-locker` plugin to unlock portions of the map as you receive items, serving as your primary form of progression. Tiers of armor, weapons, and tools are unlocked as items and cannot be equipped without them. The plugin will also tell you what your randomly assigned skill tasks are, and what you still have left to accomplish.```
actually i think im gonna bug out of this one. might change my mind closer to the date but right now i dont wanna do another rando
its just like playing vanilla sm64 except you dont get your own stars so youre stuck waiting
Im going to join
Im not sure if both Hollow Knight and OoT is biting over more than I can chew
I'd say the hardest part of the randomizer is installing it
Just edit your settings for a shorter game!
if you dont set all of your win conditions to random are you even running oot..
Yes
@midnight depot can you add suns song as a starting item to this
Sure!
Sun's Song without an Ocarina?
yes ill get an ocarina eventually while suns song could potentially never show up
All right
I'll try generating to see if the YAML is correct
Nope. I did it wrong
Im gonna skip on hollow knight because the new WoW season begins february 8th
Here you go. This one should work
Now I need to test item links
I will pass on that
Hmm, this is not working as I expected
- name: Hookshots
item_pool:
- Kokiri Sword
replacement_item: null
link_replacement: true```
This puts my Kokiri sword in a shop. When I got it, it was replaced with a junk item
Okay, I think it works now
I'm thinking for February, I don't feel like setting up any "new" games, instead I'm gonna randomly select one of the ones I've played before
Do Wind Waker
Three copies of Outer Wilds
so I'm gonna do two 1-6 rolls, meaning:
1 - A Hat in Time, 2 - Blasphemous, 3 - Ender Lilies, 4 - Hollow Knight, 5 - OW & PR (since they're short), 6 - Tunic
OW, PR, and Blasphemous it is
Pseudoregalia
Oh!
there's no good abbreviation for it but sometimes I settle for PR
So what happens if you were to get two snake sixes?
I believe I have updates to do for these games so actual setup will be later
two Tunic worlds maybe?
the return of the legendary double hatty time
I meant to say two snake eyes and then changed it to two sixes
double of the same game I'd definitely come up with different settings for each world
AHiT probably I'd set a different goal for each, give one world lots of DWs and the other none, that kind of thing
Okay, so item link testing is inconclusive
Spoiler log says Item Link: Kokiri Sword -> FlitterOo2 1 (Kokiri Swords): Kokiri Sword (FlitterOo2) Item Link: Kokiri Sword -> FlitterOoT 1 (Kokiri Swords): Kokiri Sword (FlitterOoT) Item Link: Progressive Hookshot -> FlitterOo2 2 (Hookshots): Progressive Hookshot (FlitterOo2) Item Link: Progressive Hookshot -> FlitterOo2 1 (Hookshots): Progressive Hookshot (FlitterOo2) Item Link: Progressive Hookshot -> FlitterOoT 2 (Hookshots): Progressive Hookshot (FlitterOoT) Item Link: Progressive Hookshot -> FlitterOoT 1 (Hookshots): Progressive Hookshot (FlitterOoT)
And I have it set up like so:
- name: Kokiri Swords
item_pool:
- Kokiri Sword
replacement_item: Kokiri Sword
link_replacement: true
- name: Hookshots
item_pool:
- Progressive Hookshot
replacement_item: Progressive Hookshot
link_replacement: true
This does NOT look right, but it seems to... work right???
In game, getting a Kokiri Sword does indeed give everyone a Kokiri sword
Hell yeah I figured out the Hyrule Castle Storms Grotto GS with Just Boomerang trick, you just throw the boomerang at the mud wall and it clips through
Fake news, you need ocarina and song of storms too
true
I decided not to do item links this month because I'm too lazy to test them exhaustively.
one day, someone will do an item link with my world and I'll be forced to learn how they work
but today is not that day
Time to test Rogue Legacy
Using these files
I thought this game was fully implemented https://i.imgur.com/yGiKsFp.png
budget cuts
(also its funner in randomisers to have your abilities expand as you go, you can probably remove the move randomisation if you want though
i see
Rogue Legacy seems like a lot of fun
At least, with the easy baby mode settings I picked
You should look at the setting page! https://archipelago.gg/games/Super Mario World/player-options
You cannot, in fact, make it so you always keep your basic moves, but you can set the game up so you get them back early.
It is near universal but implemented differently per game
Okay.
I'm all done with my YAMLs
1- Made A Short Hike even fucking easier.
2- Rogue Legacy should take some time but have no major roadblocks.
3- OoT is more random than before.
4- Changed names so the name of the game is included first (makes it easier to tell who got an item in OoT without having to alt tab to the client.)
As a reminder, we start three days from now, on Thursday February 1st. I have YAML files from Artiks and myself. Ixrec and Kratta expressed interest. Is anyone else playing? Do you need any help testing or setting up?
do you know if celeste is in a better state now?
It is in exactly the same state as before.
However, not that many people seem to be running into issues with it like I did
if people are fine with me rolling the dice, i'll likely do that+ hollow knight again
I'm definitely fine with it. Good luck!
By the way. You can set up a YAML that automatically selects random games to be on or off if you like metarandomness
there should be a Shovel Knight randomiser
There is
metarandomness could be fun, but i usually go from what i feel like playing
Correction: There isn't.
pull an ixrec and just make it, i believe in you cap
you'd have a hard time rolling more dice than me writing my own mod 
The biggest issue with Shovel Knight is it's like five different games
honestly if implemented right that would just make it more fun
unlock new characters and the worlds for them separately
They have a custom engine, and if I recall correctly it's in C++, making decompilation a lot trickier than with an ordinary game.
And they did not provide modding tools
Just read assembly
Same 🤝
a big reason why I settled on Outer Wilds is that it's "just Unity"
oh boy, assembly is my speciality
I never worked in assembly. I did work with raw logic gates before though
90% of my debugging is working in disassembly
Oh cool you can make shovel knight rando for us
one of my university classes was learning how assembly languages typically work, using a toy assembly language and interpreter
Have you seen how much Ghidra costs?
because they cut out all the ugly stuff and gave it a magic instruction to just print a character to a screen location, it was surprisingly productive
Who needs Ghidra
and I ended up reimplementing Centipede in it for fun
Flitter
i just meant Shovel of Hope not the expansions
I'm afraid the whole reading assembly thing is gonna be an issue anyways
I only like the expansions
whaaaa
plague of shadows and spectrr of torment are dope, i dont remember playing king of cards
King of Cards was super unique and pretty great
My preference goes:
Plague of Shadows
King of Cards
Shovel Smash Bros
Specter of Torment
Shovel of Hope
Challenges
damn
mine probably goes
Shovel of Hope
Specter of Torment
King of Cards
Plague of Shadows
Showdown
Challenges
Every once in a while I consider starting a separate thread for randomizers
But instead I can post this here https://youtu.be/MpO8V3xD9ek?si=-gVfgC6mx7DGGqqW
Hi.
Having received three more games from Ixrec we are already at the same number of games from last month
(renamed for my own convenience. Player names should be the same.)
Once Kratta and Chip have their YAMLs ready I can generate the game and we can begin.
Here's a list of every current YAML for reference
Maybe I should have put the list in a zip file
(This is easier to examine in desktop without having to download each file)
Oh you're starting today?
they usually just start once everyone has submitted
We're starting whenever everyone who expressed interest has submitted a YAML, because people who have not don't tend to care
And we have the day after tomorrow as a deadline (unless someone wants to extend it a bit)
Well I was just debating doing another quick subnautica run
That'd be fun! Feel free to take your time to decide
We'll try to start on the first of February.
i forgot how simple subnautica was to set up lol
i've already done it too
oh no i havent, subnautica wasnt installed 
yeah that was painless
im ready to go whenever
Gotta wait for Kratta and Chip
@fierce vale @wet field Please for the love of god hurry I want to save Anjus chickens so badly
i'd just like to say, i went from in bed to fully dressed, downloaded the game and set up the randomiser in 22 mins
that aint bad
yes i was still in bed at 17:09
I barely made it up at 11, and probably would not have if there wasn't a Tuesday morning meeting
sorry i hate that guy i'll take as long as possible
Anju is the hot chick bro
sorry i hate that gal, i'll take as long as possible
th hot chick who gets all the chicks
careful, karma might put your sm0l flag in my Giant's Deep core this time 
Hot chicks can be guys too
@ancient harness you should join with pokemon red and lvl up a pidgey
Ohs shtj oh god o fuck
Why would anyone play Pokemon Red when Emerald is on archipelago?
Crystal is also there
thats the good one
because red was literally the first video game i ever played?
I thought crystal was in early beta
I like playable games

Same but it still sucks
I think my first one was actually Pokemon Gold or Crash Bandicoot 1
But I did play Red soon after
my first Pokemon game was Snap
what did I do to deserve this?
I would've liked Pokemon red more if I could figure out the catch mew glitch
I can't tell what's wrong
Gimme the file and I'll check
...which snap? i'd be shocked if it was the switch one
N64
Is it because each trick is on an individual line?
Does VScode know how to format YAML?
best one
the new one is great but nothing beat's professor oak's WONDERFUL! in the original, im sorry
unironically the thing i miss most in the new game
ostensibly
in retrospect, breaking through magical energy shields by throwing apples seems pretty silly
but it was fun
I deleted ~half the logic tricks and it worked. One of them must be spelled wrong or something

(the joke was I've never played a mainline Pokemon)
This YAML linter wants me to put it in this format https://i.imgur.com/l32RiPk.png
should be equivalent I think. the dashes indicate list items
You probably have one misspelled, yeah
Ice Cavern Frozen Rupee with Nothing was the culprit
which is weird because I got it from https://github.com/OoTRandomizer/OoT-Randomizer/blob/Dev/SettingsListTricks.py
Anyhow, here is my Valid yaml
oh that makes sense
So the only valid tricks are 'Ice Cavern Block Room GS with Hover Boots': { 'name' : 'logic_ice_block_gs', 'tags' : ("Ice Cavern", "Skulltulas",), 'tooltip' : '''\ The Hover Boots can be used to get in front of the Skulltula to kill it with a jump slash. Then, the Hover Boots can again be used to obtain the Token, all without Hookshot or Boomerang. '''}, 'Ice Cavern MQ Red Ice GS without Song of Time': { 'name' : 'logic_ice_mq_red_ice_gs', 'tags' : ("Ice Cavern", "Skulltulas", "MQ",), 'tooltip' : '''\ If you side-hop into the perfect position, you can briefly stand on the platform with the red ice just long enough to dump some blue fire. '''}, 'Ice Cavern MQ Scarecrow GS with No Additional Items': { 'name' : 'logic_ice_mq_scarecrow', 'tags' : ("Ice Cavern", "Skulltulas", "MQ",), 'tooltip' : '''\ A precise jump can be used to reach this alcove
I'm excited to start; I've got overworld + dungeon entrances randomized, bosses randomized, and a lot more logic tricks to potentially have to do. And most importantly, background music off this time
and ive shuffled the weird egg
Can't forget to shuffle the weird egg
Shuffle the weird egg only into song locations
@fierce vale youre giant chicken yellow now so make sure to talk a lot
a
Oh thanks
That's everyone! I'm going to double check that the YAMLs seem good and then generate and host a game in case anyone wants to play tonight
hell yeah
it has been a while since I played Blasphemous, might do a little of that just to see where my spawn rolls
This one took a while to generate
11 Players Multiworld
running on archipelago.gg with port 54844
yeag
dang, I'd better optimize OW some more then /s
It's primarily the OoTs
it's always the OoTs
Oh hold on
I'm not supposed to be Player1
Ah well, the settings are correct
We've started the February game with @midnight depot, @weary lagoon, @fierce vale, @fresh hill, @wet field and @lament tusk playing 11 games in total.
Game room: https://archipelago.gg/room/8oyY-um-TbSuaaxIv-Bn-w
Item tracker: https://archipelago.gg/tracker/hHHBiGreRkGFjCPG_6170Q
Current Port: archipelago.gg:54844
Do let me know if you need anything
In case anyone used randomized settings, here are the settings that ended up getting used:
I never noticed this part and have been bewildered as to why the only surefire way for me to connect was to copy/paste the /connect command from this page 
most common question in the AP server fr
They should just make it so when you try to connect it starts up the server
anyway, it's time for MULTIMUNDO
Or at least remind you to go to the page when you fail to connect
neat, my free item Eponas Song
ok I got the easiest possible non-vanilla spawn, polar opposite of last time I did this
Im on a 6 win streak in chess so I think Im gonna get some really good items.
no money yet, but my first shop has Biggoron Sword, Scanner Room Fragment, Flitter's Dins Fire, and Love Key
I like Din's Fire
i dont remember how to play archipelago
Biggoron sword is a sound investment
Sad!
thanks for fire arrows
@midnight depot are gold skulltulas important for you? it costs 240 rupees
If we don't get all 99 that family will stay cursed forever
Yes I need every gold skulltula. Give me 100 and I'll have infinite money
Oh there's 100?
I don't know, I never got more than 98
all very real and epic items
Thanks
great purple tunic and black attack button
oh boy, dragons
"Player1" gives me ootmm flashbacks
Sorry
@fierce vale you can count on me
I meant to name it RLFlitter
ty besty
deku tree is dodongos cavern
I've forgotten how to play and enemy rando is being quite brutal here
no its 235 smackaroons
Taranto to My Sister shoots down lightning to fuck up your enemies
I died 3 times for this piece of paper
well its one of the best items
omg I actually made it to the save point without another death
that's a perfect stopping point
849 tears should be enough to buy...
somoene just gave me an inventoy's full of rare items
Mega, how valuable is Scanner Room Fragment?
I have to choose between that and Flitter's Dins Fire now
that is not what I expected 
scanner is... not actually useful in the rando
As long as you get Din's Fire eventually it should be fine
scanner is not a priority, its a luxury
din is a neccessaty, even if its not useful now
I bought Dins Fire
Cheers
I have my game set up so I don't ever need Din's fire (can substitute with fire arrows in all situations)
since Arti got me a super early Entanglement Rule I'm gonna also do just enough OW to reach the early check that unlocks
I have set up an !alias RLFlitter which should make the log more clear
[root at 2024-01-30 20:51:32,472]: Notice (all): RLFlitter (Player1) (Team #1) has left the game
Oh nice
Maybe instead of complaining that the gold skulltula tokens are useless
I can just make them all priority checks
I think that one's equipment
I set it so all my equipment and classes unlock progressively
forgot to get the map mod
and that's OW in BK
this is the first time in the rando ive caught a fish thats too small
I didnt know it was possible
I always catch a fish that's too small because I'm bad and never memorize the good location
lightweight high capacity tank!
unfortunaly i got that for free seconds after crafting the regular high capacity tank
i blame ixrec
sphere 0 complete 
i got a crazy amount of good stuff
too bad I got to 10.14 and not 11 I wanted to hint biggoron sword
Biggoron sword is a nonessential item!

I keep misreading Chipleste as Chipotle
I have never had Chipotle
me neither
same
i can already tell celeste is going to have been a much bigger bite than i intended but oh well
they say, clearing 25% in the first session
yeag, thats like 2 levels of strawberries, its the things like the c side crystal hearts that are suffering
man, I barely made it to the summit when I played lol
i've completeled all the b-sides before, the c-sides are hopefully limited in usefulness
There's always assist mode
yay, seaglide
i will suffer till day 30 before using assist mode
progressive strength flitter
is that useful? i dunno, probably not
i lied to myself and have now completed everything i can currently get for celeste
that emoji 
i'm unsure what i should be hinting for levels, i seem to have unlocked level 7 from level 6's crystal heart, but i would have presumed a/b level completions would have been the item required
either i read the log wrong or something bugged, probably the first considering i am incapable of reading like all the smartest chipmunks
"bastard" 😭
damn, y'all're finding all my endgame OW items at the start this time
and I can't use any of them yet 
Empty Bile Vessel sounds cool I hope you enjoy it
stag stations are fast travel points in HK, some of them are super valuable
I am guessing this is not worth it
the Dirtmouth one... not so much, since that's where the game starts
specifically, it's possible in rando to get a stag station to a place that's inaccessible any other way, those are the valuable ones
They know I'm a big spender
Dirtmouth stag, aside from the convenience, is guaranteed to have one check
oh wow I forgot I had ER on that was really weird
er ?
entrance randomizer
w ha t
I went into the lost woods and ended up in hyrule field
many randomizers have an option to also randomize which entrances connect to which exits
I played Tunic with ER here not long ago
that's so funny
and I always play AHiT with "act rando" on, which is kinda like ER
so you could possibly go through a door and end up at the last Ganon fight
maybe not that exact spot, but broadly yes, part of playing in ER is just finding the final boss
For Ocarina of Time specifically, the randomizer guarantees you have a walkable path to temple of time with no items, and that means anything where there's no backtracking is not allowed
I have Ocarina of Time set so it can randomly decide to have entrance randomizer on or just keep things vanilla
that's funny
Flitter's done a lot of OoT rando
I don't think I've randomized any single game that much yet
It's a good complex game where the randomizer really works
The best you can do here is go through a random door and find yourself inside Ganon's Castle but the inside of the castle will not be randomized (for technical reasons)
one thing I really want to do with Outer Wilds is randomize the inside of its final area
Sabrina's Gym mode
Pokémon Red Archipelago has a teleporter randomizer
Sabrina's Gym in vanilla is just a teleporter maze you have to figure out
With the teleporter randomizer it's a unique new hell every time
Oh that was really trippy
Hyrule Field -> Hyrule Castle Bridge got changed to Hyrule Field -> Hyrule Castle Market
Better get an entrance randomizer tracker if you're randomizing overworld
It doesn't path for you
I saw someone talk about an entrance randomizer tracker in the archipelago channel
I'll look into it tomorrow
apparently Tunic has some sort of ER tracker now, of course after I did my Tunic ER run
whoa, early TGT
this is gonna be the exact opposite of my last Blasphemous rando
yep
oh lol I forgot I had double damage on
Artiks's water temple boss key costs 155 rupees
Strawberries aren't important, right? I feel like Fluttershy buying the cherry
I know there's a ton of them, are they all filler items?
bruh a gold skulltula merked me next to hearts
I feel like I'm in the trenches rn and I just started
btw my low hp sound is the stone block dragging sound, I think?
my Blasphemous opening certainly was, complete with player-slowing mud
hell yeah, I'm glad they took a page from the genius design of fromsoft experiences
Okay, so the other end of the hauted wasteland took me to upper DMC. Naturally I just enough health to roll into the gold skulltula crate and have it kill me instantly b/c I have deadly bonks on
I did this so I could respawn in the same area, and for some reason that meant my shield had to get burned up, which I guess makes some sense but feels super mean.
So what was in the gold skulltula?


Also ocarina for Artiks!
@weary lagoon I have the most wonderful news
I'm not bk'ed but I'm gonna stop for now. Lots of important items!
you can set celeste to need strawberrys but i forgor to set that
@weary lagoon heya bestie, can you get this immediatly tyty
also this please @midnight depot bestie
i just gotta hint every variation of level 7 complete, thats a good use of my hints
Freestanding piece of heart?
Like
The tower piece of heart?
That's never been valuable
@fresh hill also ix's shopping list
apparently whatever lon lon ranches one is, it will unlock me like 23 checks
I'll go get it after I make this nice cup of tea
gemino's gift requires the non-empty golden thimble, so that'll be a while
yeah, thats "unlocking my victory condition"
Jondo was all red squares when I played but I forget what exactly that's blocked on
oh probably wall climbing
i also need 4 crystal hearts, but
i did get a bunch of stuff for you, i dont know the game so i dont know if anything was useful
You finished half the game already?
i mean, you get almost exactly 10% completion for every main level that gets unlocked, and then i've got 4 checks on top of that from none main levels
except summit which has reflections strawberries instead
Thanks for...hookshot?
Nocturne of Shadow, deku shield, gerudo training ground key ring, hookshot 2, jabu jabu's belly compass, megaton hammer, shadow temple key ring, strength, bow, fire arrows, light arrows, bombchus, forest temple key ring, lens of truth, ganon's castle boss key, goron tunic
i also got my monarch wings for chipknight so hopefully thats going to be a nice easy ish one
With the bombchus I get to break out of my self enforced jail without having to find a sword
So I'm going to beeline straight toward your item
easy 55.3% game completion time
Done
I had to stop at Anju to give her a chicken https://i.imgur.com/6YDlzyq.png
Kokiri Shop contents:
Shadow Temple Small Key for Kratta 725
Spirit Temple Small Key for Kratta 360
Hint: Scrub in Krater sells a short hike medal
Hint: Gerudo Training Ground is Dodongo's Cavern again
Hint: Slingshot is in uh
Also hookshot for Kratta
Oh, slingshot for me.
I guess I don't need that one after all
Goron City Shop contents:
Unbreakable Strength 505
My Ice Arrows 885
Dodongo's Cavern is Shadow Temple
Hint: Shadow Temple is Bottom of the Well
Death Mountain Trail Owl takes me to Hyrule Field at the Kokiri exit
Young Bazaar Shop contents:
Bouquet of Rosemary 900
Thieves Hiedeout Small Key for Kratta 845

Bombchu Shop contents:
Bead of Blue Wax 795
That's enough for now
Next is Rogue Legacy
buncha slackers
Yeah I need to do more checks
I might do a little PR but overall I'll probably stick to the plan of holding back until people need some stuff I can actually get to
I forget which wrecks need the laser cutter, it's annoying to spend 20 mins slowly swimming all that way (no seamoth yet) and manage my oxygen when I get there only to find it need to be cut open
yeah, dw that was a joke, especially since i have a game with 0 checks
does dyslexia affect the gameplay
It makes textboxes a bit messed up
Yeah
RL and RL2 are both great games that i am garbage at for some reason
I never liked rl
Yeah no
Rogue Legacy 1 sucks ass by modern roguelike standards
That's why I only played the randomizer when they added quality of life stuff
Oh maybe I'd enjoy 2 more then
But I also don't care enough to try it
I'm super interested in 2.
2 seems to fix every problem 1 has, introduce all sorts of new neat stuff
And the only problems I have with it are that it's expensive and too long
Lots of stuff, primarily for me https://i.imgur.com/54rud9F.png
i really enjoyed rl when i replayed it when rl2 entered early access
its defo missing some stuff, but its not like, crazy egregious
seems like I'll have plenty of prayers next time I do Blasphemous
@weary lagoon this one too please bestie
i should probably be being more reasonable and hinting things to unlock level 4/5
Yeah now that I have the weird egg I should be in go mode
you spoiled where my spirit temple and forest are with these hints hehe

Cheater!
thanks for the gorons bracelet
thanks for the hover boots
thanks for the ocarina, thats a good item
thanks for the fairy bow
Your welcome
thanks for nayrus love
I know how to speak English!
thanks for the slingshot
thanks for the silver gauntlets
thanks for the second bow
Dual wield bows!
I was just imagining Link with two hairbows
The surprise twist
song of time already?
00:56 on dampe today
@fresh hill I need this to progress
can confirm, that is a crucial item
yep, I mentioned finding that first session, I just didn't have the money for it that day
cant belive im friends with someone who's poor
smh
you didnt say whose sword you found
oh right that's one of the OoT weapons so it's the only one I need to specify player
i need either 12 crystal hearts or the level 8 completion to win now
@midnight depot can you grab this for me
its only

a short hike away
i shall be sensible and not use a hint on level 3 b-side completion and wait
Here you go
another strength for flitter
my game made you big and strong
thats a high-fish diet for you
Thanks. Here's a mobile vehicle bay in return
im on 2/3 of those
but thanks still
ooh thats all my seamoth fragments! just need the last mobile vehicle bay fragment now
wait a sec
thorn_shuffle: local_only
how did you find my Thorn Upgrade in your world?
Maybe I used the wrong YAML?
Let me check the spoiler log
No, definitely local only
Maybe it's a bug because you set them to be local only and also under your local items?
Ixrec items:
Silent Running Mode
Mea Culpa Upgrade
Combo Skill
Golden Thimble
Thorn Upgrade (???)
Chip Items:
Defender's Crest
Left Mantis Claw
Two stags
first completion has been stolen from me /s
Kratta items:

I'm gonna double-check the Blasphemous map and see if there's something more interesting I can do besides grind money
The game gives you enough money to buy everything without grinding so that's sane
hm... I'll do a bit of Cistern, pretty sure there's a place in there where I can redeem this empty flask
lens of truth, nice
that was worth multiple attempts at the barely in range cherub
that sounds important
Hell yeah
Mega, is the Thermal Plant important?
yes and no
its not urgent
not neccesary but useful
if anyone finds my compass that'd be super helpful
Best I can do is a cyclops decoy tube upgrade, after I get all the wallets
that is 100% useless.
literally never used a decoy launcher in this game, its just not needed
Yeah I never used it either
ftr, that hint I just used was primarily to test this in-game inventory code that someone's contributing, no pressure
Oh that's cool
Blasphemous seems like it would appeal to me a lot more than hollow knight
oh?
But Hollow Knight
Yeah it looks sick, I just haven't loved a metroidvania since I was a kid
OoT
Maybe that'll be the one
Blasphemous is a pretty fun soulslike
I stopped playing hollow knight, but I think it might've been more because of the setting/vibe than the actual gameplay. Like it was good, but it didn't grip me enough to keep playing
Blasphemous certainly goes all-in on its vibe
Yeah all the screenshots you've been sending look awesome
I stopped playing Hollow Knight after a few hours
Then came back to it years later and liked it
#1096278752142577684 message
Monster Sanctuary archipelago is now feature complete
neat
That must mean OOTMM is next in line
these are the things currently blocking me @weary lagoon and @wet field
these will unlock like 40% of the game
Oh dang I forgot I had cow shuffle on!
okay I need to stop getting distracted by all the rainbow dashing and play some oot
Just because we already have one game of eleven done doesn't mean you have to keep up the pace
I did use baby's first settings
holy moley I got a ton of important items
uh oh, tracker of time didn't save any of the ER information
is that normal?
Yes
I see 
Just restart the game and start the tracker from the spawn screen
This will allow it to read entrances from the game's memory
what did you get
ocarina, hover boots, hookshot, zelda's lullaby, light arrows, din's fire, epona's song, song of time (I think? idk I wasn't paying attention to what songs I had b/c I couldn't play them w/o the ocarina)
no
Kokiri sword is for losers anyway
Sticks deal as much damage as the master sword
And you can infinite sword glitch them
This screen? It doesn't seem to be working
Minimap
Yeah that's broken
Maybe if you leave it'll correct itself?
Is the tracker actually started? What if you reset it?
yeah it's started
That was the minimap for desert colossus, which is where I was before I restarted the game as well as the tracker
I see
I don't remember how to actually get the tracker into a state where it properly detects exits again
But that's a big part of the reason I recommended writing them down
no way
It's really obnoxious because now the tracker won't accurately tell me which checks I can get unless I re-explore all the entrances I can
maybe I should just try a different tracker
They do! Both sticks and the master sword deal 2 damage
how much does the biggoron sword do
3?
4, I think
whoa !
oh wow tracker of time is written in visual basic
It's the best
It turns out that you don't need an empty bottle to get the cow checks! Enjoy your laser cutter fragment, mega
yay
Hi
Let's do some hiking and clear out the low hanging fruit
Thank you for the silver feather, fishing rod
No
Get the hard stuff
I have four silver feathers
There's nothing hard left
The game is intended to be done with just two
My Kokiri sword. Thanks, me!
Stone of Agony for Artiks
YESSSS
grub list
Both would be neat
I will ping you when I need the recovery heart
thanks for rutos letter such a powerful item
Pale ore 
King Dodongo had the all powerful Weaversong

I forgot to check my win condition at temple of time but I guess I reached it
Weaversong is so good
i got one of my 3 dreamers from the first shop i checked so i think thats just a theme of this rando
Rainbow Bridge

my longshot is in the shadow temple
I cant get anything in there without the regular hookshot so someone else has that
perfect time for a hint then bestie
no I hinted biggoron sword
lets gooo

one of my big goals for the next mod update is to replace all those Nothings with "real" useful/filler/trap items 
Can you make it so the cycle instantly ends? That could be a terrible trap item, don't add that
@fresh hillI need this.
add that and nothing else to replace nothings actually
Make a trap item that's actual malware. For immersion.
Start encrypting random files and only reveal the key after goal completion
Lol
because of course Phar would do that
Lol what is that?

Phar — 04/03/2023 5:01 PM
Showcased as a meta-game for Archipelago sessions in [...]. Players must work together to mine enough "Pharcoins"--the crypto currency of choice--to pay the ransomware that has encrypted a large chunk of the multiworld's items before time runs out.Inspired by ransomware attacks in the 2000s, session hosts can add a single Pharcryption game to the multiworld to change the stakes of any sync or async game. All items that are encrypted are hinted out immediately so players know where they are and how much it will cost to decrypt.
ok I'm done with work stuff so let's play the goat game
...I forgot I left death link on
Oh no
that was the most scuffed rafters ever but I got it
the attempt where I finally grabbed the ledge wasn't even one with a proper ultra 
You would not want to share death link with me on this run. I probably died less often in ds3 so far
oh god Celeste would awful for DL
i'll make sure to turn it on for my next celeste run
someday I will get Arti's item but first I need all the yellow squares
You can turn it on for this celeste run
that sounds useful
fortunately underbelley escape ends in the bailey so not too much longer
I already have a slingshot, I think, but more ammo is nice
all my remaining levels are b or c sides, along with the core, thats going to be not fun for whoever is playing at the same time as me
@weary lagoon
no clue why that's a red square on the tracker
ok, that's all the easy intro checks for a PR run, plus the yellows in dungeon
which already puts me at 23% apparently so definitely stopping there
oh laser cutter and mobile bay, nice, thanks guys
and large rooms?
are you only allowed to make tiny rooms at the start?
you can only make corridoors at the start
this is what you can make at the start:
you need multi purpose rooms (the big circular rooms) to build any of the bigger items like niclear generators or water purifacation things

the large room was added in below zero and retroactively patched into this game, and its basically a multi purpose room but 3x the size
best dialogue in the game hands down
previous workspace/new workspace
lockers for scale
Holy shit that's a large room
its so big they give you walls and doors
and your exclamation is why im surprised this is the second time i got it before the multipurpose room, which is about 1/4th the size
might even be smaller actually
makes you wonder if the AP should do "Progressive Room"
actually i think i have to agree
the large room is completely unnecessary, but it is a billion times more convenient
Time to play Rogue Legacy for an hour
why an hour and not, say, an hour ans 2.5 seconds?
I need 2.5 seconds to take a sip of my tea
makes sense
gah
the next wreck i need to go to has a reaper leviathan hanging out on top of it
im... gonna skip that one for now
til i can get a depth module for my seamoth
me, idling looking at my map planning next move: hmm
outside: thump
me: eh?
outside: reaper leviathan right outside the window
me: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
this game
i swear
every time i play it does something like that
Elegant key for Chip
yeah, its called the non-simple key
grats!
I wish we could have creature randomization in subnautica, but I don't think it's super technically feasible without a great deal of effort
The leviathans have specific pathing
Oh I see.
It could probably be done, but it'd be a whole thing
Probably need to make specific "slots" for leviathans, and shuffle leviathans between them, with unique paths for each
But we can just shuffle other creatures
The best part would be not knowing where the leviathans are, though
Well you should have said leviathan randomization then
Oh I skimmed over the part where you mentioned custom pathing
Yeah you'd have to come up with new leviathan "slots" with new pathing and all that. It'd be super cool
awesome
uh
the problem is that some creatures are vastly different sizes to others
some physically wont fit in the locations of others, and some would be tiny
Yeah that's why you'd need to come up with new locations and new pathing
Makin ur own subnautica 3 kinda
Because if you just swapped the leviathans around with each other that'd be boring
Right, the technical part is relatively easy. The majority of required work is in the design
Pretty much the only problem I have with subnautica is that once you already know how everything's laid out, the immersion gets broken. My first playthrough was one of my favorite experiences in gaming but I just feel no need to do another playthrough
I'd love to see more unpredictability in a sequel
Pretty much my only problem with Subnautica is it kinda sucks
Tbf they laid out everything very very well
Yeah I guess I just don't like underwater stuff
(Oceanblock in Minecraft was great though)
And deep underwater stuff is one my all time favorite settings!
there are advantages and disadvantages to the system
a hand-crafted, stable, map means you can carefully tailor the experience to allow for a story you want to tell, but procedural generation means you can randomize things and change it up, making it more replayable
i like subnauticas system, its already hard enough navigating the map without randomnes involved, i wouldnt be doing this rando without the map mod
Oceanblock had a map mode where you start in an underwater glass dome and it is insanely cool
Yeah it's hard to get mad about it when their handcrafted experience is so good. I'm just sad I can't experience it more than once
I'd like a middle ground
id say that maybe they could randomize the location of the wrecks, but then at the same time the locations are kina important, make the early stuff to far away you have a brick wall of progress or the late stuff close and you have gameplay breaking items right away
Tunic and Outer Wilds are the "would forget and replay from scratch if I could" games for me, I don't usually hear Subnautica get mentioned for that which is interesting
then theres the fact that the map is actually super cool and filled with neat geological things
which you only really explore because theres stuff near them
Yeah I think it's fine to have static wrecks and geological stuff
I just would want to avoid the "I don't have to worry about going through this area because I already know where the creatures are gonna be" feeling
I want to always feel like something's gonna get me
Or at least within reason
Subnautica fart mod. Adds randomized extra buoyancy for a random amount of time after eating
this is why I like to try enemy rando whenever an AP game has the option
You're off the dev team
I think Blasphemous and Tunic are the only games I play which have it, and they both did it pretty well
(Tunic's had one issue but they've fixed it already)
Hollow Knight has it
weird that I don't remember that
It's not part of archipelago but a separate mod
oooh
It's not AP'ed, but dark souls 1 enemy/boss rando is horrifying and fun
It'd be legit scared to do that in an AP game
Instead of randomizing enemies
Just make them all black knights
Dark Souls 1 condensed parry course.
oooh i get it now
theres a little indicator tellimg me what checks i can get, what they're calld and how far away they are
but it goes away when i've run out of available checks
thats super neat, i thought it would just tell me the nearest check
i now know im in BK mode
Become the parry lord...
I think ds3 enemy rando would be great, but boss rando would probably suck because it's a more linear level-to-level progression than ds1 so you might just hit a wall and get sad
That's what a soul level 1 run is for
Sl1 is at least guaranteed to be a certain level of difficult
You'll be doing bad damage but it won't be abysmal
I mean that it'll teach you how to deal with every boss's moveset
It does do that
ok so items i need to progress:
radiation suit
moonpool fragments x3
cyclops bridge, engine and helm fragments x3 of each
reinforced dive suit
uh
i think thats it, atleast for the next chunk of the game. with that i get the lost river, inactive lava zone and full lava zone
after that ill need to develop the cure and disable the gun but neither of those things require anything other than what was said earlier
oh i do need the prawn suit and drill arm for kyanite for the spaceship
oh and the spaceship fragments
but thats the last part of the game
i only need a very limited amount of things to finish, but theres a lot of checks to get when im there
The cyclops and prawn suit are so cool
honestly i thought the prawn suit was a really clunky machine
they should have just let you do everything with the seamoth instead tbh
You get to be spida man
thats like the only thing it does better than the seamoth
atleast that they couldnt have just added to it easilly
I like that you need to use more cumbersome equipment at lower depths
add a drill to the seamoth, give it a depth module up to -1700m and then it can completely replace the prawnsuit
the only thing the prawn suit can do is drill in a non-ocean environment
which is a completely artificial problem
I wish I could be one of those scientists that gets to see like the bottom of the Mariana trench in a submersible
That shit is so cool
I love how it's so deep that there isn't even any light at all
sure i know a company
they're making thir sub out of a lightweight material called... carbun fiber? dont know why they're building it in a car, not why bunnies are involved

Introductio...
This video makes me want to run the game in archipelago
Signalscope for Ixrec
Shadow temple boss key for kratta
Chip pass for Tram
Minuet of Forest to me.
He is intimidated https://i.imgur.com/Uz8uWFi.png
Iron boots for me, silvered long of dolphos for Ixrec, water temple small key for Kratta.
nice, with the lung my next session should probably be do just enough of Mercy to reach Cistern and then basically all of Cistern
Hello. Time to play Ocarina of Time
Watch out for peahats
They can't hurt me because I don't remember what they are
I think they're the propeller guys
they fly out of the ground and rotate
They can't hurt me because I'm too fast
Oh I hate those guys but I learned to just avoid them
In Majoras Mask you actually have to kill one for a heart piece instead of just completely ignoring them
Extremely common MM dub
They're a badass enemy but they're too hard to just have them to fight for no reason
Kratta do you want to join the next ootmm multiworld (the greatest randomizer ever made)
(also 50 hours long)
I thought it wasn't ready yet?
The standalone is playable
Not on archipelago but we have played OOTMM multiworld outside of archi before
Took us a month and a half to complete because it lacks progression balancing.
Ah... Yeah that sounds cool
Took us a month and a half because I was the only one who knew the game out of 4 people..
I uh, knew the game 
next time we run dungeon randomizer its so fun to enter deku tree and end up in stone tower inverted
When I was little I could 100% that one and alttp by memory
Thanks for shadow temple boss key, farore's wind, ruto's letter, magic, 200 wallet, zora tunic, strength, bomb bag, bottom of the well key ring, big poe in a bottle, kokiri sword, water temple compass, epona's song, 500 wallet, stone of agony, water temple map, spirit temple compass, forest temple boss key, bolero of fire, strength again, song of time, minuet of forest, iron boots, and killing me with ice traps
are you playing with big ice traps on
I have them set to replace all junk items
spirit temple small key for Kratta
Where the fuck is my ocarina? I want to be a real man
i knew it well enough, my issue was not getting items
there were a few issues ill grant
Cling Gem to Ixrec
I was really clingy as a teen
Why are stat ups considered progression for rogue legacy?
They are literally junk
sounds like a stat issue
That's what I'm saying
Just beat the game without them
Deku shield for artiks
golden feather for me!
yesssssssssssss
Must be nice 
You know you can buy those from shops
its also only needed for 1 thing
they are useful tho
and annoying when you dont have one
but you look cool with no shield equipped
And if you have no shield you can't lose your shield
oh the rando lets you unequip them now, right?
The standalone one
damn
Archipelago has not updated
I dont think its in OOT rando just OOTMM
Yeah but I don't know which shop
I burned my shield because I rolled into a crate
It was not a crate idea!
I wish I had just a little bit more magic so I can do all of deku tree with Din's fire
How did rolling into a crate burn your shield
I had to swap to a stick. How horrid
eww sticks
Queen Gohma is herself.
Where did you find your deku tree
#1119170161518334004 message
im looking for mine
My deku tree was my deku tree
im still BK
I'm so not in BK
sounds like youre playing vanilla by mistake
I have it set up to randomize many settings, including entrance randomizer
But I don't think I have it set to turn it off entirely
I paid ten rupees to fish and my reward was five
stonks
Pale ore for chip
The zora lake owl takes me to graveyard warp pad
nice you can go into shadow
Fittingly, shadow temple is bottom of the well
do you have all loading zones randoed
so owl counts as a warp
Yep!
Major key for Ixrec
What the fuck is Chert's signal?
I need 30 skulltula tokens for it
Egg of deformity for Ixrec
@fresh hill I need this https://i.imgur.com/XIEfzQc.png
My Ocarina is in Listless Library Sun Greaves 3
with the upgrades everyone's found that'll be effortless
Wonderful
let's just get it out of the way right now
hype room was hype
if I carried the chicken all the way up zoras river and then someone sent me an item I would have quit the game
im really tempted to quote this lol
Same but I was only halfway up
you could always tell us to avoid items for a minute lol
What am I going to do, tell you not to get me my ocarina after I pinged you to do it?
I was just hoping I would be faster than you
My Mask of Truth has Nayru's Love for Kratta
Golden feather for me!
Zora shop contents:
Nothing.
for ixrec
No just nothing
Jabu Jabu is Jabu Jabu.
Hint: Claim check for me yields a heart piece for Kratta
We are
Hint: Ganon's Castle is Ganon's Castle
https://i.imgur.com/25vcCFb.png holy shit

I like how the small rupees in Twilight Princess have a message like "You got 1 rupee! You're... slightly happy? I guess?"
Hint: Kratta's small key is deep in the wasteland
Dampe time is 56 seconds.
I wonder why it's so much slower than usual
Kakariko Shops content: Kratta's shadow temple small key 615
Chip's left crystal heart
56 seconds doesnt sound slower than normal
I'm pretty sure I usually get 51-53
challenge accepted, im making billy hatcher rando

you know it bestie
