C-Euro posted:looks cool but haven't played too many ASCII games so I might have to practice here. don't some old-school roguelikes have simple fan-made graphics pages, or would i bring shame to my house by using one? some do. crawl and adom have really nice tilesets. i don't think sil does.

Larry Parrish posted:I still haven't actually beaten Dungeon Crawl but you can have a lot of fun and challenging strategy in 20 minutes or so with it, IMO. It also has the most stuff you can do which is nice, although its kinda gay that playing a melee fighter of some type and picking up magic is usually the way to go. the way to go is to pick a deep elf xelementalist and blast everyone with fire/ice/air/earth to win

I found ftl really boring after the first play through, once you know the encounters it gets to the point where there are only two options, the right one and the wrong one, and beyond that the game lets you win or lose based entirely on rng

it just seemed like too many of my ships died unavoidably because the right encounter never popped up. Maybe they fixed that in the free enhanced update which I never played,on the other hand maybe I just suck at ftl

it took me like 20 minutes to get tired of necrodancer.. it's a cool concept but what you see is what you get and once the novelty wears off its just not very engaging

Huntress is my favorite character, but it's too bad the other unlockable classes are rear end, for the most part

necrodancer is really good on the real mode where u clear all areas with 3 hearts freaking iditos. die!

Huntress is the best character. Commando's not bad. Acrid is incredible if it gets some items real early on but it's rear end otherwise

sunless sea is a slow badly made pile of trash and i'm mad that i played 2'05" on it the day before refunds came out

Do you like piloting boats? Do you like drawing lots to see which crew member gets eaten? I'll admit that's a pretty niche audience there but it serves them well

combat sucks and you can't explore bbecause anything ohter than incremental exploration will run you out of resources and you'll die. the only way to make the game not complete garbage is to go in and edit the game files to make the resource management inconsequential. it's a pile of poo poo

sunless sea doesnt really fit the op's desire for a relatively quick roguelike at all, though, so i dont know why people are talking about it. i guess this is the roguelike thread now. or the games with permadeath thread. or whatever

I'm playing crawl again. Good game IMO. It's fun to play a mage and completely ignore all survivability in favor of more and more spells. Probably my favorite is to play a hill orc of Beogh and be Orc Jesus
