Yeah it's been a busy month for me too and I haven't had the time or energy to gently caress around with nethack's unix guy control settings bullshit. But I want to spend some time with it

I was a little disappointed in my Mario 64 score until I realized it was random every time you refreshed

this is a sickening oversimplification but I simply don't have the time to explain the hundreds of complex algorithms I'm using to calculate these

: Die 25 Times

Never have any idea what I'm doing in Frozen Depths but it's cool. I made use of the start on level 8 option so I can stop getting killed by snow ants and start getting killed by walruses.

I was looking at my scores and realized that I did not actually earn this trophy. It felt like I lost a lot but I am too MLG to have died 25 times. Please remove this stolen valor.

Hit J to bring up your journal, you can navigate through that and one of the sections should mention if you killed a named enemy.

The biggest early game thing you can do wrong in Qud is not start with at least 18 Toughness. After that try to get your AV to 4 or 5 as soon as possible. You will take a ton more damage before you fix that

That boss is a trap for caster classes imo. I just don't bother with it

: Unlock three classes or races

Game's finally starting to barely click, although I still constantly forget about half of my activated abilities. I can definitely see the Angband roots, this character's been cruising effortlessly through the first few dungeons until he ran into the wrong kind of sentient crystal and almost got exploded lol.

Take Force Bubble for an easier start. Being able to snipe enemies from inside a box for a few turns will help you survive the first few levels.

It's what he would have wanted.



His last revenge! Oh well, in for a penny




I also died on an orc prison level in the Gnomish Mines because I used a wand of teleportation and ended up inside the prison
