- A Beginner's Guide To Caves of Qud: • Getting Started With C...
Caves of Qud is a colossal and colossally weird post-apocalyptic science fantasy roguelike epic that has recently completed its 15 year development cycle. Qud in 1.0 is looking sharper than ever, and it beckons us back to finish what we started so long ago!
Get it on Steam at store.steampow...
You can chat with other folks on the subreddit at / sbmakesstuff
If you enjoy these videos, you can now support us on Patreon at / sbmakesstuff ! You can also do that if you don't enjoy the videos, actually. I'm not going to tell you how to spend your money.
Yay! You're back. First person I ever watched play Qud, and the reason I bought the game and lost 1000 hours to it. Glad to see you return
I wrote the above before I found out you were running Truekin for your first character back. You're dead to me.
I'm envious of you. I've tried so many times to get into this game but I find it just overwhelms me. Hopefully 1.0 is enough to motivate me to break through whatever self-imposed obstacle that's stopping me.
Lol. Truekin think they are soooo special.
Yeah I wanna get it but I'm afraid 😭
So glad to see you coming back to Caves of Qud! And doubly pleased to see you creating a tutorial for it after exploring it so thoroughly in the past!
hell yea!! I found ur content from a shevled by genre bonusode on Qud and now the stuff u put out has become like a full on part of my routine :P
I loved your previous play through of Caves of Qud back when I watched it. So nice to see you play this again.
Thank you! Love Caves of Qud and your gameplays since Tangledeep 💚
I came to your channel for Disco Elysium and wasn't expecting to see QUD, but I'm super stoked that you're playing it! :D Can't wait to see what you get up to in this funky little world.
Just found your channel. Im commenting and subscribing to get you more points with the algorithm.
I am SO EXCITED to watch this series. The original Qud series you made was what originally got me interested in Qud in the first place. I still have fond memories of you encountering all of the iconic Qud moments for the first time (omitted for spoilers, but the story is so fun and I couldn’t possibly ruin the beats for anyone). The very ending was also beautiful. Let’s just say that a lot of the randomly generated histories that the devs are so fond of incorporating ended up being a big part of that.
1:21:20 - I found in the options that you can set your enemy ignore threshold to Average difficulty (instead of Easy) and it will let you autonavigate despite seeing Easy enemies.
I also found it useful to turn on the minimap and Nearby Objects menu which can be toggled at the top of the right sidebar.
Really enjoyed your last series and looking forward to this one! I really appreciate your explainations throughout the playthrough!
First video of yours I’ve watched and you’re the perfect LPer. Patient, informative and relaxing to learn along with. Ty
The time has come 🎉
To attack a neutral entity in melee hold control and then press the number pad in whatever direction they are from you.
That's handy for when you're clearing out the dread tubers.
yay, I trusted one day you would be back and here we are, im so psyched for this play through, love your work x
Alright, you and others have convinced me that this is a pretty interesting game. I think I will buy it.
When Tam ask if he knows who his people is and he says no. The response after that sort of implies that he's stupid.
He says that his people have been around for thousands of years and met everyone who can think or speak.
Implying that he is neither despite having a conversation with him.
idk why its disabled by default but the nearby things interface is goated, not sure of the specific setting but check it out
Edit: In the UI config, check "Show nearby objects list"
Yes, I think it's a mandatory setting!
I love CoQ
Really happy to see you playing this again.
Cheers SB!
You can change your primary limb by hovering the mouse cursor over whatever limb or appendage you want and pressing insert.
That can work for everything from horns to wings or any particular limb of a 20 armed freak.
Finally ! Great to return to the Caves !
Backlog can just simmer with more dire chaos---this is something To Behold for sure, after all this time.
YAAAAY IT'S HERE!!!
The time has come!
When you press a for the ability menu, you can drag and move abilities to whatever order you would like on the bar at the bottom.
Also if you press in search over any of the abilities you can give it a test of shortcut and not the One automatically assigned.
Assigning the camp ability to something like shift C, for Sprint to shift es will streamline a few things.
Your character will not automatically pick up items if they are aware of hostile entities around them.
Also, looting dead enemies appears to be a manual thing.
No there is an advanced options section in the settings to tinker around with various automations.
let's gooooooooo
we love to see it! live and drink!
I really want to sit down and enjoy the series as a whole, have it playing as background while I work, but for some reason the playlist is backwards 😔
Love it!
Yes Yes finaly
I imagine you'd have to cut pretty deep to upset a root.
I'm excited
Ahhhhhh Qudmas!!
Finally
Very fast!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
hey could you please fix the order of the playlist for this lp? as it is currently, the first episode is the last, and the last is the first. can't actually use the playlist this way, unfortunately.
Does anyone know if there are settings in this game to change the font, or background colour around the font? My dyslexia does not like this but the game looks super cool!
Quetzal!
can you get cybernetics/mutations that are not in starting list?
Most of the very cool cybernetics are not in the starting list.
Mutations are all in the starting list from what I have seen in game.
Big difference between cybernetics vs mutations is that cybernetics can be found the world, whereas mutations are purely from leveling up. So your knowledge of the world map directly influences your progress with Truekin. For beginners I recommend mutant first, because you can learn where all the cybernetic credits are while playing mutant for your truekin runs.
there are several cybernetics that arent in the starting list, some are very powerful. for mutations, the ones avaiable at character creation are the full list
how did you get inventory like that? is that change classic/new GUI?
they added new huds on 1.0, also has controller support now
It’s the new one, which is now also the default.
@darloth oh?
Is there any mouse input?
of cource. SB doesn't use mouse, because it's just easier to only use keyboard or controller. Over time, you will stop using your mouse too.
Qud!
main problem with true kin are actually two:
- mutations are way more versatile than cybernetics; some of them also lock body parts, because the lack of options weren't enough;
- it takes too long in the game for true kin to reach peak point, with all credits hunting and cybernetics hunting. Mutations you grab fly and vortex generation and teleport and flame fields at level 1.
Not to say cybernetics have no scaling at all - the most you can do is using items with bonus compute power, which are limited to specific gear parts, and the bonuses normally aren't worth the bit costs, and few of them even use this as a boost.
I was expecting a small buff, more cybernetics variations, or at least a lesser cost in cyber credits on 1.0, but guess not.
can you turn off the horizontal "scan lines" in this game? looks awful.
How can this be entire world.
Seems like just a continent
It actually is just a continent. There are three lore books in the game that detail the other ones, the "Across the Moghra'yi" series if I remember correctly. Definitely give them a read if you can find them... Or just sell them for a lot of water, you don't gotta listen to me.
