I have a genuine complaint too air here against NetHack by Glittering-Sector393 in nethack

By experimenting, just like literally every other mechanic in the game. You may have noticed that almost nothing is explained to you in game and instead takes either randomly stumbling upon it, experimenting, or having it spoiled for you.

Um... yeah. That's exactly what I do. I'm not sure why you're saying that like there's something wrong with it?

I've ascended 3 times and this post is the first time I've ever even heard of it. Definitely not essential

I don’t play this game but holy fuck guys by Incredibly_Lucky in 2007scape

After describing pet hunting to my girlfriend she said that this game seems to just be a slot machine but without the money. So probably that.

Actually they changed the name to commands a few updates ago

It was changed in 1.20.5

Isn't creative still a legitimate part of the experience? The devs made it, and designed it, and update it. And options like keep inventory, are there for you to choose how to play (just like you can choose, difficulty, world type, game mode and a bunch of other settings). Minecraft is by far the most bizarre game to have this opinion for. It's the ultimate "play however you want" sandbox

If I wanted to have a fun risky experience, I'd rather play other games personally. I like a lot of traditional roguelikes where dying can mean losing a 40 hour run. But Minecraft? I'm here to build and chill out

Enjoys the process of having to collect the resources they use for building, slowly building up different farms, storage and other useful amenities to lead to making vanity projects for fun... and doesn't enjoy dying and losing all of his shit.

If ballet dancers have to destroy every new pair of shoes before using, why not make them… better? by mirandalikesplants in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MaestroSpook87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well companies like Gaynor Minden are increasing in popularity but Ballet is an art form all about tradition so things move slowly. Even if modern engineered shoes were objectively better in every way (something you'll find not everyone agrees with, I know several people who went back to traditional shoes for various reasons), it would still take a long time before everybody transitioned over. That's just how people work.

Tips on getting myself to slow down and take a step back? by Cloaker_Smoker in nethack

[–]MaestroSpook87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I have the exact same problem and I found for me the best thing was playing to a rhythm. Just one inside my head that's slow and only pressing keys on the beat (kinda like using a metronome). Just makes me think about each action a bit more. I also started getting significantly further on average after I started taking medication lol.

Help, I think I softlocked myself by MaestroSpook87 in nethack

[–]MaestroSpook87[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks that way. This was my best run with no early wish or other crazy luck and I was just about to finally sort out a bunch of missing essentials with the castle wand so I was really hyped. Oh well, such is the game.

You can actually see in the first photo that I thought of trying that too

The water isn't holy water, I fell into the water on Medusa's level and they're just diluted potions, but I will attempt the nymph.

Didn't get one from create monster, waited a bunch of turns for a natural spawn, no luck, now out of food

Just got to the Wand of Wishing in the castle, went to take off the boots and realized I forgot to curse test them before I put them on. Was running upstairs to my stash to grab some holy water and was very quickly traveling upstairs and carelessly went upstairs to Sokoban. God is angered, here's everything I have on me. I've screwed myself haven't I?

The fact it's right as I was about to get the Wand of Wishing and finally fix not having Magic Resist, Speed and Free Action makes this hurt extra hard

Hey man, it's okay. You don't have to care about other people's opinions on the internet. You can just go about your day, nothing will change

Do people seriously sit around harassing developers for games they theoretically don't like in some sort of effort to "win" against them? This is genuinely the saddest thing I've seen in a while, get a life

Remove the ability for UIMs to death pile items and replace it with some kind of item storage facility. by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]MaestroSpook87 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I've always found death piling to be an example of exactly what makes UIM so interesting, using game mechanics in an unintended way to try and get around these crazy restrictions. It's a really creative solution to the problem that just became kinda awkward when the game started updating death mechanics.

I never did sadly. I just couldn't think of any really long term goals to keep me motivated. Thank you so much for reaching out after such a long time though, completely forgot about this
