joppo: I've been playing Rogue Legacy these past few days too and I can't recommend it enough. Unfortunately I am having trouble aquiring money enough for my upgrades. And all the decent chest runes keep eluding me.
Same here, I've hit a kind of cap where my character doesn't live long enough to accumulate enough for upgrades. And since you have to pay all your remaining reserves to re-enter the castle, it doesn't help the next descendant. Perhaps if I get better at it I can get past this grinding.
joppo: You'll love to see when you unlock bestiality :)
Oh dear!
joppo: Press Esc, LShift to see the character's profile card. It tells what the current traits do.
Ah, thanks, that's a good suggestion. It might be just the character saying certain things in combat, as Thespian (perhaps jokingly) suggests. I confess I don't pay attention to that area of the screen much when fighting enemies.
I hope it's not considered a detrimental trait, as that would be an unfortunate attitude on the part of the game creators. Hopefully it just has cosmetic effects like some of the other traits.
