My first time in Zot I died to Pargghit who was berserked by a moth so yeah…

Zot is a cruel place :D

DCSS got quite a few beefy updates recently, with reworks for Makhleb, Dithmenos, Yredelemnul and Beogh, many new spells (and a new spell school in trunk), reflavouring of Poison magic into Alchemy that allowed adding some more late game spells (e.g. Yara’s is hexes/alchemy now), return of mountain dwarves and a new species that can dual wield weapons, transmutation magic school being changed into talismans…

I love the new changes and, for the first time in my DCSS obsession, I started playing trunk :D

No way I’m going anywhere without my trans and lesbian flag pins!

I hope more people with niche interests will come to Lemmy - this is the only use case for this kind of social media for me, and Lemmy’s a bit lacking in this regard.

But yeah, I’m not looking forward to those redditors who assume everyone’s a cis man and stuff :\

The game expects you to figure stuff out on your own so I recommend to take it slow and look closely at what data is available to you. (Or just finding a guide that explains elemental damage and items if you don’t wanna do this)

The game’s system is simpler than it seems and it’s very rewarding to finally learn and master it.

Yeah, the collection is incredible! I at first thought that the games will be some shallow micro games but…

These are full games in their own right, with great music and visuals, with fun (and sometimes innovative!) gameplay to top that off.

This project is insane in the most positive meaning of the word.

Me and Lunacid. Immediately started a new playthrough after 100%-ing it.
