The game wasn't even that hard. A challenging game would remain difficult after your first attempt, not become something that even a comparatively inexperienced player can dash through without much difficulty.

@toksyuryel I just gave brogue a try. It feels like Nethack running with SDL or so. Personally, I prefer Nethack because I find it much easier to understand the map in it and I move way too fast under Brogue, but perhaps I should just learn to play it better.
-
@omni brogue is definitely much more fast-paced than NetHack.
-
@toksyuryel Definitely. Perhaps I'll get used to it if I play more, but I really like Nethack's lower pace. Still, thanks for the tip!

After 10 rounds of !brogue I am left with one all-consuming question: what the hell is gold for? I've never seen a shop.

Challenge time for the few !Brogue players on here: hold Ctrl while clicking "New game" and enter 12 as the seed. Play once only, post your broguerec.

Looking to be a good run so far. Would've had more potions left if I hadn't found an armour with an immolation intrinsic effect and had to expend those to counter it, but even that didn't end this character. :) !Brogue http://ur1.ca/9ry5a

@widget Nethack is pretty much the defining example of a roguelike, yeah. (Though as I said, !Brogue is actually the one I most enjoy right now, and also the one I would recommend to newcomers to the genre.)

@widget I can't really explain it well without getting many details wrong so here have a Wikipedia article. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roguelike
-
@widget Yeah, death is permanent in Nethack. (Well, you can be saved from a single fatal thing by an amulet of life saving, but once you actually do die, that's it for that character.)

Oh hey, Spacechem is super-cheap on Steam right now. Not that I need a copy, but I would definitely recommend taking a look if you haven't already. !vgp

@toksyuryel Not yet, no. No reason I couldn't fire it up now, though, since it was either that or do some more !Brogue.
-
@bitshift I got two~

-
@toksyuryel Oh hey, since you're online right now and it seems like it'd be your kinda thing: ever tried !Brogue? It's honestly the most fun I've had with a roguelike in a while (I'm actually kinda annoyed I didn't find it earlier).

@bitshift I shall check this game out just as soon as I can tear myself away from Bastion XD
-
@toksyuryel Be warned; it is pretty much a given that at least one of your first few games will end with !everythingsonfire. Heck, that's half the fun. :)
-
@bitshift As a veteran of both NetHack and Dwarf Fortress, !!FUN!! is not at all a problem for me. :D
-
Also !brogue is amazingly fun.

@bitshift LIAR.

Well, sort of. I'm going back to bed shortly, but the first time I tried I suddenly had an idea that didn't want to be left until tomorrow: http://bigmacintosh.net/brogue !brogue

It occurs to me that I should post a link to my !broguerecs folder in the group, so the link isn't so hard to find: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/srifo5ihabdxnth/vguf0PeRow

@minti It was a spider before all this, so I'm not sure I made a good choice. Trying my other wand, only to find it was a wand of beckoning, didn't really help either, but I did somehow survive it all. :D
-
@minti Aaand dead for the last time tonight, since I'm going to bed now. New recording's in the broguerecs folder, too. (This time it's "tentacle horrors oh my".)
-
@bitshift :D Sleep well >>1.

Welp. I think this is officially the first game where I didn't die due to some fire-related incident. !BRogue replay: http://is.gd/04e8HP

Oh dear, maybe drinking the first potion I found wasn't the best idea. "It must have been a potion of creeping death." (The best part is, I actually found two of them in the same room.) !Brogue
