NetHack is a really interesting game, and I respect it a lot for the influences it has had over time. I really wish it wasn't such a pain to actually play
@MiseryMyra sounds like my kind of shit
@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
@MiseryMyra "consider 3.4.3 as the "baseline" rather than 3.6.0"
oh thank goodness
In light of this, I have been playing FIQHack, which is a NetHack variant with some quality-of-life features that make it significantly less tedious to actually play
