@camlorn just to clarify, the block 3 when reading enemy names means the enemy has 3 block, not the player. I intentionally haven't made everything the enemy does read because it would in some cases take forever. For example there is an enemy that attacks 15 times in sequence and there isn't an easy way to combine them into a statement saying that due to how the game's code is structured. I plan to make this a bit better later on, maybe with some config options. Also as far s I know my mod reads all of the attack names that are visible.

@defender I'm working on figuring something out for enemy/card art descriptions, it may take time though.

For what it's worth I'm reasonably sure the game doesn't show sighted players more.

If you're wondering how to play the thing, it's a memorization, probability, and planning game.  Dying isn't losing.  It's being able to learn more about the environment.  The game seems unfair, but actually it's merely impossibly difficult.  Spoilers below here:

Take Sentry as an example.  It's an act 1 elite.  There's 3 common act 1 elites, so you know that if you take an elite it's going to be 1/3 of the time.  But to find that out you need to have played floor 1 a few times so that you've seen all the elites.  it's always a group of 3, and they take turns alternating middle for 9 damage, outer two for 9 damage, for a 9, 18, 9, 18 damage pattern.  Furthermore whichever one isn't attacking is putting dazed in your draw pile, which means that eventually you'll have more dazed (unplayable card) than anything, which means that the fight is effectively time limited: eventually you'll barely be able to play cards, then you die.  My Ironclad strategy is cleave plus killing the one on the left (which gets you to 9, 9, 9, which can be handled with defend +), fire breathing and holding out until the deck is full of dazed (if you have that card dazed does damage and they die in like 1 or 2 turns of full cards), or getting really, really good defense.

Knowing the other two elites on floor 1 and having strategies for them as well then turns into a "should I go after an elite floor or not" answer, depending on what you got on the first few floors and if you think your deck is strong enough to deal with it.  However the downside is that some relics are stupidly powerful, and you only get them reliably from elites, so if you don't then by floor 3 you're falling behind.  But the point is, it's not about letting the game tell you things, it's about knowing what cards and relics might be available to your character, and what the patterns are.  We don't get significantly less information than the sighted, in fact I don't think we really get anything they don't get at all at this point.

There's 3 bosses per floor, once you know those the game turns into "I have 14 floors to plan" and so on.

Explaining this kind of makes me want to stream it, maybe I'll look into doing that once work slows down.  I don't win often, but i can reliably make it to act 2 and semi-reliably act 3 on Ironclad, and until I switched off Silent and started mastering Ironclad, Silent would usually die halfway up act 3 for me.

I thought I was starting to get a handle on the game myself.  I could beat the game pretty consistently on ascention 0 and 1, then I unlocked act 4, and wow, what a slap in the face that was!
My point being there will be times when you feel really confident and then something will happen to make you feel really stupid, but try to learn at least one thing from every game you play and it will get easier.
Also, I highly recommend people disable all character mods until act 4 has been unlocked.  I was unable to unlock it myself until I disabled them then beat the game with all four characters again.

@Stewie;  Great job on this little mod. It's fantastic!

Well, @ogomez92 keyboard support is coming soon but for me it is not a huge deal. Most of people are using controllers in these days (I mean, most people who plays games) and in my opinion controller is one of the best (if not the best) way to play games. When there's controller / keyboard support I always pick gamepad!

Something what can support XImput so my recomendations? X360, xbox one or PS4 (DS4 - dualshock4)

Hi.
Do i need to use nvda if I want to play this game by using say the spire.
Is it working with jaws also?

The modern wireless Xbox controller just connects over bluetooth, and is probably what you want in general for modern games.  Thank Microsoft for deciding that Direct Input is deprecated and here's an entirely incompatible API.

Stewie has already said keyboard is coming.  He can probably give a better explanation of the difficulty, but the game itself has no keyboard support whatsoever.  It's only mouse and gamepad.  SO getting keyboard support is going to require that he implement it from scratch via a mod, which is the kind of thing we call extremely difficult.

@#65 is it really that hard to find out anything about the game? There are links and for the Steam site too so you will get the answer. In short it is a deck building rogue-like cards game.

I'll have to check it out.

Does this game use any of the less common buttons? I have a fight stick and would love to use that to play, but my fight stick only emulates the face and shoulder buttons, it won't do the l3/r3 style buttons (I'm not sure if Xbox has these).

hmm do i need to hit play with mod option every time when I want to play with mods
If I understand correctly I need to run the game from desktop if I want to synchronize my score with steam cloud.
I have dowload a cmd file  but it looks that it run mds launcher.

@stewie Ah boo. I guess I'll actually have to plug in my DS4 then. My fightstick can emulate the left/right stick, but only with a switch toggle, and I have a feeling playing it like that's going to be awkward at best. Thanks for the response.
