So recently my 100th run ended (related: the seed GodAutogunPick has a garbage -10 mines) and i thought i'd share my first ever run. (Scoresheet attached)
I also want to make a single "mistake log" in which i would recount mistakes in every run past the 100th, but i don't know which place would be best, does anyone know?
Anyway, my first run. It was on adventurer mode, and i got a lot of luck, so i ended up getting pretty far(-2), so there will be some "minor" spoilers (and also possibly major ones). You've been warned!
The first spoiler tag will be for "minor" spoilers, and the second one for major ones.
Nothing notable at the first floor, and i exited to the next one. Then the craziness begins : i entered the mines and at some point, i met
a derelict that gave me an exit to "a safe place"
I followed and arrived at Zion. I met A8 and a few other bots who gave me codes (deep caves, visual alteration) that i kept trying at different terminals throughout the rest of the run because i had no idea what i was supposed to do with them. I also imprinted.
After that, i left for proximity caves where me and my allies fought a behemoth, among other things. I got back to the factory alone, where i got 6 additional slots, confusing me on the next few runs (i though the reason for evolving so many slots was that "i had uncovered a bunch of story" because the game says "the reason for this evolution is part of the story to be uncovered").
(at some point in the main complex, there was an assault squad dispatch, which brought the tutorial derelict for those, which is where i got the backstab achievement by accidentally shooting them as soon as they appeared(i don't remember if i shot at them or if i killed them through a stray shot). I reloaded afterwards, which is why the achievement isn't in the log, but they never re-appeared, because they had technically "delivered their tutorial")
At some point in -6, i fell in a chute trap, but not only was the area "eerily silent", there was also a "frightened Derelict". I also found an apparently broken exp. sensor array.
After getting out, i got to the next floor, and then the next, before finally exiting into upper caves.
Nothing notable in the first, but in the second i completely missed the exit to research and ended up in a unaware outpost in which i used A8's code, which temporarily saved the run. I then exited to an empty cave with two enhanced grunts by my side, but thinking the cave looked a bit suspicious, ended up finding Zhirov and all the lore they had to offer. (except for the one thing concerning the Armory, which i somehow missed)
I used both alien artifacts as soon as i found them, which is why my core integrity went below 50% in there. After exiting to proxy caves, i lost both my allies, and fled in front of a behemoth.
Nothing notable in -3. In -2, i entered Quarantine, and i still had no idea what i was doing.
"major" spoiler time!
In Quarantine, i found a few alien artifacts and ended up equipping the core reset matrix, before meeting the sigix warrior, which i was unable to free. I never actually got scanned by a researcher, by the way.
At some point, i wanted some Zion reinforcements but they were unable to send squads. It was actually the first time i had asked for a dispatch, because i thought they were limited.
At some other point, i saw something that looked important, so i went over there and discovered it was guarded by a robot i hadn't seen before.
I thought i could maybe take it on.
After a few shots, i finally damaged their core and saw FOUR HUNDRED NINETY CORE INTEGRITY?! "Nope", i fled past the Fortress and some assembled covered me as i fled, close to death. I ended up dying soon after in Section 7, what would turn out to be my "birthplace"(full loop!) and a place that's supposed to be a secret.
So that's the story of my first run, where i somehow stumbled my way through the world into Section 7 through sheer luck.
