Elona’s rules are often obscure when first encountered, and it’s entirely possible to lose a character without knowing quite what you did wrong. The vanilla game is considered complete, as is the English translation, but when you’ve become accustomed to it, graduating to the ‘plus’ version is recommended. And remember – kill every bard.
Can find the most current version of Elona+ on the Elona wiki. Most current version is 1.66.
Link here:As for English translation, there is a bit of news about that. Up to Elona+ 1.62, Annabannana and some others making contributions, had been responsible for creating a mod that provides better English Translations and tweaks called Elona Custom.Unfortunately, Annabannana has went MIA and there hasn't been an official Custom version since.
In light of this, a community member called Bloodyshade has taken up the torch and has continued Annabannana's work unofficially. Some translators have also gotten together to further translations as well and are in contact with Bloodyshade.So there's an unofficial Elona Custom for 1.66 that provides translations and tweaks for Elona+ 1.66.
I've been using Bloodyshade's most recent Custom myself and it's worked pretty well for me. The most current version of Bloodyshade's work is Elona CU 1.66.3 Hotfix 1. So by using Elona+ 1.66 and installing Elona CU 1.66.3 Hotfix 1 you will have the most recent English patched Elona+Link for Elona CU(Custom Unofficial) 1.66.3 Hotfix 1:The actual download is in the comment section where Bloodyshade has provided a mega download link as well as another link for downloading it. It should be near the bottom of the page.

Must be the first option then, because Elona's not a JRPG and is, IMHO, one of the best roguelikes around. It's a different kind of roguelike compared to ToME, for sure, but it's much more hilarious and nonsensical.It's probably not for the anime and japanese culture haters who throw around hateful speech and pathetic insults like 'weeaboo' and ♥♥♥♥ like that, but for everyone else it's a blast to play. Originally posted by:Humor in RPG, I hate it, it's right like bad French SF, unable to manage it really so you end with bad SF and bad humor. And for referential 'jokes' there's no humor most of the time just pointless and out of topic references. Some people like such artificial elements, I don't.
Alright, that's your opinion, and I completely disagree with it. BTW, I'm just replying because your post in the 'Is this the best roguelike?' Thread seemed civil enough.
I hope I'm not gravely mistaken. Originally posted by:Why bother answer a post you feel unacceptable? Next time tune down your paladin mentality and just ignore. You are prompt to judge and deduce I bet, isn't it?:-)Now you're trying to tell me what to do? You're not a mod, y'know. But yeah, you're right, I was gonna ignore the 'japanized' thing but I tend to (naturally) get pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ off when people offend others for no reason whatsoever.
I don't understand what you mean by 'You are prompt to judge and deduce', though. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, but that was so blatantly offensive that I felt I had to make that clear. I'm sorry if you think I'm judging you. If I were, I probably wouldn't even be replying. Originally posted by:An advice is just an advice, it's free and never mandatory and yeah advices can be wrong.:-) About misjudging, my words perhaps get further than I would, it was just a second advice hidden in the main advice and with a form of teasing, at least that was the purpose. Yeah, sorry about that.
I'm aware you were giving me advice, but I'm having a very stressful day (studying for finals and noisy neighbours making my life miserable) and I ended up getting pretty harsh there too. Again, I'm sorry.I suggest a mod deletes this thread though (Dekar, are you still here?), OP's clearly a troll trying to get some attention. And people are clearly taking the bait, myself included.
