Making the postgame nicer

[njvack]

I was reading the book "Baby Ice Friends" (or some closely related title) to my kiddo the other day and realized that what the postgame needs is a little more kindness and warmth. "Never gonna let you down," y'know?

So: I propose changing all occurrences of "Fiend" to "Friend."

  Code:

The Brimstone Friend gestures. Your body is wracked with pain!"
The Ice Friend gestures! The bolt of cold hits you!
You die...


See? Doesn't that feel better?

[Jabberwocky]

You're still dead.

[Psieye]

But it's nice and fluffy that you were killed by friends instead of fiends~ Not. This would be like defiling the concept of friendship - which makes it surprisingly appropriate for hell, yes.

Brimstone Friend -> Your demonic pal who's fun to be with!

Allied fiends should be retitled as friends.

[Pandarsenic]

This is the best idea I've ever read.

  Code:

The Brimstone & Treacle Friend gestures. Your body is wracked with pain au chocolat!"
The Icecream Friend gestures! The bolt of cold hits you!
You diet...

instead of sending wrath, when you renounce a god, it will send a chaplain to have a conversation about your apostasy and your thoughts on the faith

If I may be serious for a minute?

The game already supports alternate text, right? I mean we've got the elven-speak and the dwarven-speak iirc (unless one of them was pirate-speak and I couldn't tell it apart). Why not actually go for nice-y speak, which is obvious self-parody?

I'd find it hillarious.!

The ogre hits you.
Ouch! That really hurt!
You die...

That sounds really disappointing.
What about the following:

The ogre hits you.
You feel very light.
You leave your body and fly to the stars.

Random outburst of high in some IRC network:

  Code:

<Bloaxor>: fly among the skies
<Bloaxor>: and seee
<Bloaxor>: you are dying in epilepsyyyyy
<Bloaxor>: the lights are flashing and the rain goes down
<Bloaxor>: and then you hear the voices of glee
<Bloaxor>: they won't sorrow over your name
<Bloaxor>: for you are now freeeeee
