Roguelikes ftmfw. ADOM got me through some hard times. Roguelites are fine but they've gone too far. Something needs to be done about it.

grieving for Gandalf posted:the roguelike/lite I may have played the most other than Slay the Spire is probably IVAN. I used to keep it on a thumb drive so I could play it at school lol I played IVAN a bunch but the way enemy spawns scale based on your gear just kills it for me, it sucks to finally get a good item and basically be punished for it.

I got the 32 heat statue then burned out. It kinda suffers by that point cause you've turned off so many options the deck building decision aspect fades away

welcome posted:How's ADOM been since they started selling it? I only ever made it to the fire temple in 1.0, got a couple of mindcrafters killed in the Steam version but didn't get far. It's easier than the pre 1.0 versions I used to play, especially with all the item suffixes and prefixes. And you won't immediately crash the game if a drakeling spits in the fire temple and the other weird bugs it used to have Mindcrafter is a challenge class imo, no getting around it

bees x1000 posted:I've never liked ADOM very much but it's been clicking with me recently. I'd like to break the game with a Wizard but I need to get one beyond level 10 first. Elementalist is not as good overall i think but might be easier in the early game. But wizard is so sick once you get Acid Ball, I think I actually burned a wish on that spellbook on my winning wizard run

bees x1000 posted:TIL. is there anything in-game that indicates this behavior or is it yet another reason to be playing with the wiki open? it's just kind of a common sense thing that the boulder that drops in front of the door won't hit you if you aren't in front of the door there's also a less obvious thing that trapped doors have a slightly different message when kicked without breaking which might help future decision making

Nice! Keep your guard up but if you can handle the ToeF you should be able to coast for a while.

Lol the minotaur maze. Back when I used to play a lot it was not even remotely worth doing, I dunno if it's been changed?

bees x1000 posted:lots of bad luck today, my dudes getting killed by xl2 pit viper swarm traps and chaos mutants in the village dungeon. getting annoyed by the amount of clicking required to get through character creation. Yeah I liked it when it was just race/class and out the door. Dunno if it still works but there was a speed run strat where you held down a single key on game start and it would pick assassin, start the game, open the skill menu, open alchemy, attempt to mix whatever unmixable potion starts in that inventory slot, and then it explodes and kills you on turn 1.

welcome posted:Was it a vault or a tension room? You get level messages regardless but a tension room full of titans is a way nastier surprise lol. It wasn't the dwarven halls was it? Yeah that approach gets quite a few guaranteed artifacts too.

bees x1000 posted:it could've been the dwarven halls but I don't know. this was my first time going below dwarftown, I thought I was strong enough to explore. I'll check out those quests, I've got another dude back at dwarftown right now. Okay always make sure it's not the dwarven halls cause that place will gently caress you up real fast

I could never really get into angband- something about not having any time pressure and no limit on how safe you can play just makes me feel like every death was avoidable, but not in a fun way
