Good day.

Have most people had a chance to run a dungeon or two yet? I would like to hear about the experiences that everyone has had so far. I am probably not the only one, either.

The keywords used seem to have a rather esoteric or oblique link to the resulting generated area, for one thing.

Yeah, totally. We ended up in "Paling, Fortune's, Night Moon," and it dropped us in this dark forest, so probably the keywords all link to whatever's in the area. "Paling" was probably because it was full of undead enemies, I'm going to guess.

[horologia]

We used Night Moon too and didn't end up in a dark forest, so it probably isn't that one that results in the area.

Unless it is a combination of it and the other keywords that determines the location selected, rather than each word determining a different thing ...?

[696_9]

Yeah, but there's lots of things each of those words could refer to, right? Like if one of the words were "Sea," maybe one place would send you to the beach, but another could be, like, the polar ice caps, and another would just plop you underwater. They all fit.

[horologia]

Ah. You mean that one keyword establishes a base theme that the other two then modify, rather than all three determining different things. Correct?

I mean, it's possible. It lets them have more variation in their areas, so the game doesn't get too samey or boring, right? At least that makes sense to me. What kind of place did you end up in?
