Wasn't making such an implication. I used to love playing Moria on the Amiga. I was just offering another option that others might find interesting. But maybe most people in these comments are probably familiar with DCSS and other roguelikes
> emergent gameplay and cool new tecniques merging combat and objects' properties
Is the gods feature also novel or does that show up in other roguelikes?
- anthk 3y agoNethack and specially Slashem has lots of focus on objects, environment and monsters and secondary effects between them. With DCSS, you can't neither butcher mons or eat them in recent releases.
- anthk 3y agoI mean, DCSS isn't bad, but it focuses on combat and specially role/attributes and spells. A Felid Berseker from DCSS it's far more "arcadeish" on gameplay than Nethack's Valkyrie with swords/hammers. Also, on magical roles, DCSS will put lots of more options in your hand than (even) Slashem with #tecniques and without quirks like the spellbooks.
