@atinyfairy Yeah, he makes some great stuff. Anodyne is a personal favorite of mine
I recently played through All Our Asias, which is a short narrative game that's free on Steam. It was a nice experience, and I think it's worth checking out: http://store.steampowered.com/app/698050/All_Our_Asias/
@squirrel I always say rowhters, but I alternate between the two pronunciations in other contexts for the word "route"
@squirrel_ebooks I agree
@BatElite Not really. You're all alone exploring a mansion on a stormy night, and there are a few things about maybe a ghost, so I can get why somebody might think that. Nothing scary happens, though, and I never felt like it was setting anything scary up either. I think it makes what kind of story it's trying to tell pretty clear a little ways into it
I ascended for the first time in any NetHack variant today, including vanilla. It was quite an experience. The variant I ascended in is FIQHack, which I mentioned earlier. Here's the log, if anyone is interested: https://www.hardfought.org/userdata/M/MiseryMyra/fiqhack/dumplog/2018-03-24%2000%3A02%3A26%2C%20MiseryMyra-Val-Hum-Fem-Law%2C%20ascended.txt
@revenant It's always a good time to just watch them all
It's time for Classics Of Game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlVb1p4Splc&list=PLvkpyltLiH5Y0h7_XNXCQlG2b2cwNwAQ9
@revenant In the grim darkness of the far future, legos are the only currency
When I was younger, I had a very bitter outlook on humanity despite (or maybe because of) having a generally sheltered and poor understanding of it. Now that I'm older and have a much clearer perception of the ills of society, though, I'm trying a lot harder to just be kind to people and be optimistic about the ability of our actions to create a better future
trans stuff, neg, don't read
@Raspberryfloof I'm sorry you're going through this, and it's something I can relate to on many levels. If you'd like somebody to talk to, I'm here for you
@revenant It's pretty nice. It's got remappable controls, auto-explore, much more effective searching, warnings for doing obviously bad things, easily customized autopickup, a more helpful interface, etc. It also has some rebalancing that makes suddenly facing an unavoidable death much less common, especially in the early game. There's some more info on it here: https://nethackwiki.com/wiki/FIQHack
