Don't need a holster if you never stop shooting.

Nethack was my first roguelike and I still play it a few times a month.

I've never ascended, but I've gotten close a couple times. I just don't have the patience to polypile and break the game

You can easily do it without polypiling or anything like that, but it doesn't change the fact that the Gehennom run is tedious.

I just want the TOME4 guy(s?) to dedicate a patch solely to working on the classes, and then another patch to work on the boss monsters.

DoomRL. You can probably beat it way before 50 hours without spoilers.

DoomRL has difficulty modes and you could probably beat Not So Rough in a few hours.

I only play DooMRL because I like DooM. Nethack was boring as poo poo. Most of the time I get stuck on a floor with no actual route to the next floor. Thanks randomly generated dungeons! :downs:

Rougelikes aren't for everyone. Doesn't mean you have to go around and say "Rougelikes suck".

in nethack sometimes the rooms with stairs down are hidden and you need to search for a path to them
