I think the description's off. I'm currently traversing Castle Hundenswein, and I've been defeated many times. I've never gotten any of the effects listed here. For instance:

You attack ... You hit the foe! You hit for 64 damage. You gain some of your opponent's energy. You gain 4 power points. Your opponent attacks ... Your opponent has a critical hit! It hits for 150 damage. It cleans your clock with that hit. The fight is now over, and it's not pretty.

However, when adventuring in the Space Station (all three locations there, in fact) I've been defeated and got some of the effects. However, even there, I've always gotten only one of the effects, never multiple.

So, my question is: can anyone confirm the prerequisites for getting such side-effects, and can anybody confirm that it's possible to get multiple of the listed side-effects? --Alarion 06:53, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

I never got multiple. I agree there probably are some prerequisites. Specifically, getting Concussed on level 1 seems impossible.--Muhandes 08:46, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Are you sure you didn't get the "picking your pocket" message from a pickpocket?--Muhandes 11:45, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

After getting beat up quite a bit, I've come to the observance that I suffered only then side-effects when I was defeated by a normal attack. A critical hit would have no side-effects whatsoever when getting beat up. Can anyone confirm this? --Alarion 07:24, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

I think you can only get one message every time you're defeated, though you can get all three if you're defeated multiple times. Being defeated by a critical does not result in one of the other messages, nor does fumbling to death.

Also...
You attack ... You fumble! You take 81 damage. You beat yourself up, and have lost the battle. Your foe walks away laughing, but only after he picks your pocket.

Chips before: 925,358. Chips after: 925,358

It seems there is no loss of chips.... I believe there's also no loss of items, because that would be just mean. Imagine if somebody lost their hero's cape this way! --hoyifung04 01:15, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Has anyone gotten the "Something inside you isn't lined up the way it's supposed to be, and it seems to be messing with your ability to keep your chakras centered and your focus, uh ... focused." message recently? I'm pretty sure I haven't seen it since 1 November 2008, actually. I'm sure it used to be there. Can anyone confirm if it was removed, or if I just don't notice it wehn I do get it?--hoyifung04 14:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Being defeated critically no long protects against negative effects. --hoyifung04 (talk) 18:00, 25 October 2013 (PDT)
