Springheel Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm having a friend over tonight to play TDM and I'd like to try a mission that I haven't played yet. Which of the following would you recommend? Seige ShopHouse of TheoHouse in Blackbog HollowLet Sleeping Thieves lie Quote TDM Missions: A Score to Settle * A Reputation to Uphold * A New Job * A Matter of Hours Video Series: Springheel's Modules * Speedbuild Challenge * New Mappers Workshop * Building Traps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melan Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 House in Blackbog Hollow is very halloweeny, excellently scripted, imaginative and ranges from funny to creepy. I would pick that out of your four. Quote Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbohr1more Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm torn between House of Theo and Let Sleeping Thieves Lie. I am leaning towards LSTL because it's a little more polished and it affords more than one chance to use rope arrows... And it has more diverse environments. House of Theo OTOH is more challenging in most places and is more of a traditional manor heist type mission. Haven't had a chance to try much of Blackbog but it intrigues me due to it's infamy as a bizarre experience. I love trying weird stuff and folks have been raving about this one. (except Sotha... LoL) Quote Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod: http://www.indiedb.com/mods/the-dark-mod (Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

Springheel Posted December 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 what kind of mission you prefer? A good one. Not a fan of campy humour or contrived objectives; good stories are a plus; visual polish is less important.

SiyahParsomen Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 A good one. Not a fan of campy humour or contrived objectives; good stories are a plus; visual polish is less important. On briefing & story, LSTL is better imo. Although some parts are a little rough on visuals, it's average in general. Besides gameplay wasn't bad afair. It starts nice but tension drops after some time. I assume you won't finish it after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPGista Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Siege Shop has a very interesting beginning/first act, a creative way to get into the fortress, but after that it becomes quite linear and sometimes frustrating to advance due to always having only one way to go foward (the passage ways are also generally very well lit, to add difficulty), so it takes patience... Some very cool machinery there (patch models I believe), but might be a bit too hard to demo to someone sucessfully (havent played the others yet).

Sotha Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Let sleeping thieves lie would be the best of those in my opinion.Pretty solid mission with cool features. Quote Clipper-The mapper's best friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
