Why isn't Nethack talked about more on this board? It's a very meaty RPG experience even if you're not fond of traditional roguelikes.
Personally i can't get it to look good.
>>4129662>RPG experienceThis is a JRPG board. And you'd have to be able to read.
>>4129664Take the vulturehack pill

>>4129939What the fuck is this?
>>4129980GUI overlay for NetHack. Very old one too, I remember playing it 15 or so years ago.

>>4129664It's an ascii tile based dungeon crawler, looking like shit is part of the appeal
>>4129664imagine getting filtered by ascii

It's too tough for people these days. Nobody wants to learn how to play, spoiler use is rampant which sucks some of the fun out of the game. Newest version supposedly a "code cleanup" but changed many fundamental things, all for the worse, fragmenting the player base into several pieces. Despite all this it's great.
>>4130410>Newest version supposedly a "code cleanup" but changed many fundamental thingsReeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
>>4130410What did it change?
>>4130513There's a big list out there, I'm not gonna retype it for you lel.
>>4130130any reason why the inventory is 60% of the screen?
>>4129896This is a dead board. Nobody posts here about anything most of the time. It's 90% trolls with nothing to say, like you.

>>4130761not that anon but if i remember correctly you can't word wrap in the console. makes sense to make enough room for some of the crazy long item names.
>>4130768>Engaging with the OP question meaningfully is trolling>but whining about how other people don't create content for you isn'tThe absolute irony.
Because it's ancient and as good as it still is it has been surpassed by younger RLs in just about anything.The mapgen is particularly archaic and hard to go back to.
>>4129662I wasted so much time on DOS versions of Rogue, Adom, Palantir and Nethack in 1999. I can't look at this stuff anymore.
>>4130410>Newest version supposedly a "code cleanup"Name a single case of "code cleanup" in game development which didn't result with some absolutely unbelievable idiocy.
>>4130513You get fewer wishesElbereth got nerfed (again)Most strategies that could make you uber powerful were patched out because 0.01% of the playerbase was getting too good at ascendingThey changed some classes and monsters to be more (((gender neutral)))>>4130761That's the Curses interface. You can play without it.
>>4137638There are some bad ones, especially involving fractions of a turn. Which is sometimes absolutely critical with Nethack. They flubbed it badly.
>>4129662Games like Nethack don't work in the modern age. It's too obtuse to learn intuitively but once you know the spoilers it's trivial. This worked better decades ago where information came from rumors and advice instead of minmaxed wikis.
