Sure, but might as well reach for it. Especially in light of * being playable entirely on a terminal * no "AAA" budget.. all text, all ASCII instead of fancy 3

It's a bit mocking of the AAA industry to call it "the greatest game".
Also, this site was not made by the devteam, but a fan. So the Hubris isn't coming from the developers :)
- cLeEOGPw 11y agoThe things you listed is downsides, not something to be proud about. To play on terminal you still need large screen, and colored, since NetHack utilizes colors. This makes an obvious downside of not using any kind of images or cursor. This makes the game unplayable for all people except few old programmers and system admins used to do everything with commands. In my eyes this game along with many other terminal games are "toys of old unix admins". It's really mind-boggling how anyone can think that a game with worst possible production quality can have a word as "greatest" associated with it. Just because you feel nostalgia, it doesn't make the game good.
