/rlg/ - Roguelike General

Porn roguelike featuring rouge when.

There were two first-15 rune wins in the last thread, now that I checked. Sorry I missed them! No need to get upset though, you can always win again.

>play android rune knight
>win

Cant crawl just fuck off into its own thread considering nobody wants it in here

I don't even understand what you're trying to say here.
Enjoy the tournament, user.

>tfw none of your wins were ever featured in the op

>Abloo bloo bloo my crawl win isn't in the OP
Grow a spine.

Maybe you should post them

Make one.

WIN HARDER

without crawl there would be just 1 PCB autist/dev and 1 nethack 4 autist left.

>tfw this is me

We should just split the general like the H-Game general was split

>casual babby shit
adom, tome4, dcss
>true roguelikes
pcb hack etc

This kills both threads.

you never stop saying that either

>only 2 guys dont like crawl
the delusions

I've posted 3, none of which ever got into op.

tfw you already burn out on crawl after the first tournament win

I know, sorry ;_;

A DCSS and non-DCSS thread split has already been tried in the past.

The non-DCSS thread died to lack of discussion.

Quit whining and be glad that the combined general keeps the thread on life support.

That was before PCB and dynahack became big

How about this
win mumo
I'm sure that if you win a good combo that's not Mi-whatever
>be glad that the combined general keeps the thread on life support.
Should we also be happy about how fast the thread is when everyone is shitposting?

It doesn't matter how much you claim to dislike Crawl if you don't actually play anything else.

Thanks for featuring my win.

It was a magic-eater, but frankly, I wouldn't count it as really significant win since I abused 555 to skip mid-early game and get proper staffs/rods/wands. Lot of creatures bow to multiple wands of rockets.
My first win, though.

This is my first time in OP - I played Crawl quite a bit before, having some 15-runers and single greater ascension ( orb-grab at 3 runes, go collect rest ).
Maybe now that I have a win in PCB I can finally go work on my own roguelike and fill that vacuum Crawl left in my heart.

If by perseverance you mean grinding, sure.

>PCB .. became big

>became big
There's two guys playing dyna and two playing PCB. Get real.
DCSS is the backbone of /rlg/ for good or worse.

I've won a montrous demonspawn and posted it, didn't get into op. Being elitist about what should and what shouldn't get featured is a good way to kill interest.

Remember when everyone was playing infra arcana?
How many people have even mentioned it in the last two months?

Just accept that /rlg/ is /dcssg/ with a little variation every now and then.

Interest in what? Getting in the OP?

And one guy playing nethack.

And a dude playing URW and one playing DDA.

I've won at least a dozen times without them getting into the OP.
And I've won a dozen times which have gotten into the OP. It's not a big deal and is really nothing to complain about.

There is someone playing URW? Haven't seen him.

It's not like you're playing all these games just to impress us, are you user?
So, since you don't, why do you care so much if your win is in the opening post of a thread on Veeky Forums for a couple days?

This shit is why we should never have put wins in the OP, except for challenge ones like MuMo or the vampire convict dude.

I don't complain, just find it funny when people shit on each other because of what autism sim they prefer.
I don't know what's your problem.

I'm just your problem , user.
It's like I'm not even a person.
I'm just your problem.

The Vampire Convict dude literally did it for the sole reason of getting in the OP and having an excuse to put his name in the nethack wiki though.

I retract my statement.

Great start of a new thread. What was you first roguelike, /rlg/? Mine was ADoM.

nethack.. then gave up. started playing again recently with caves of qud

Your mom.

If you're not listening to this while playing Chei there's something wrong

DDA

A bad choice, I must say.

DCSS

Mine was ADoM too. Troll wizard archmage in Pre 5, back when pre5 was the latest one, three years ago.

DCSS for me.

Moria in 1987.

>father wants to give for his son's birthday
I love this walking sim

What game?

Elona+
still can't find Shena and her ass

Nigga she's right there in Vernis' bar.
She has a unique tile too.

You could bounce a quarter off of Shena's ass.

Also ADoM, million of years ago.

Even back then, Biskup was the Phil Fish of roguelikes. Easily the nastiest person seriously involved in roguelikes.

I don't know much about Biskup, or ADoM in general, why is he so bad?

Pyramid is the furthest I've advanced...
Nice

does URW even count as a roguelike

It has the mechanics, so yes.

DDA also counts as a roguelike so, yeah.

Chei is best played with eurobeat

He's german.

That explains it.

Atleast he is not finnish

Fucking muslims.

Did you say eurobeat

>people ask him to open the sources, he gets buttmad and promises he won't do it
>then gets buttmad that someone reverse-engineered his game and spergs out
>promises to regularly update the free version of the game, doesn't do so
>adds a fucking splash screen with "buy game" in the free version
>to add insult to injury, a great deal of the descriptions of the changes in the changelog are "added 3 new monsters" - that's it, that's the entire documentation
The game itself isn't bad. While not really good either, it's pretty obvious a lot of work went into it.
It's just Biskup who is the worst roguelike-related person out there.

What's wrong with being finnish?
URW and IVAN are both fun.

Just joking.

Now, letonians, that's another story.

I see.

Seems like a huge faggot.

Is that the new Crawl race?

The worst part was "I'm releasing the source code as a hardcoded book if you pay 500 K dollars" part in kickstarter.

You don't know the half of it.

Why did that guy even start developing adom again
wasnt it dropped for like 10years

No m8

urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Letonian

He saw that everyone was making mad dosh out of roguelites and thought he'd get in the grinder too.

There are at least two of us playing DDA. Maybe three.

Two first ones are legitimate, though. It is usually up to developer.
Of course, roguelikes are traditionally open-sourced (although Rogue's not), and if you are stopping active development, might as well drop the source as well,

I don't disagree he's a dick.

One would think Corwin used some a little more impressive Gauntlets.
How dare he wield Grayswandir with these?

They'd be incredibly good in a *hack, but holy shit they lack in PCB.

>if you are stopping active development, might as well drop the source as well,
For sure this would be the generous thing to do, but let's remember too that developers who have poured their time into creating something are under no obligations whatsoever to give it away for free or make their source available. It *should* be taken as an act of generosity when they choose to do so.

Even the GPL, which coined the term copyleft, doesn't have provisions against selling compiled binaries. Software developers have to eat too.

Well this seems quite fine for a monk.
I doubt I'll be changing it.

PCB was more common than crawl for a good 3 or 4 months straight last year.

what kind of monk are you user

Tonberry, life.
I've already splatted two level 50 tonberry monks before and with this one I've vowed to reach and slay Oberon.
I'm only level 31 still with this one though.

As Elona was last year. But all subsides.

>shopkeeper makes you pay more for food if you're hungry

What a fucking asshole.

you know what you must do, user.
Trap him in pits and steal all his shit.

That would be nice.

And why are large dogs so strong.

I can destroy uruk-hai but a single large dog can fucking kill me.

I never get tired of this.

Reminder that you will never win.

Couldn't you use this to bypass him on the way out too?

Nah. He has more time to prepare.
But I did.

>engrave with wand of create monster
>summon stone giant

Oh fuck is he gonna go hostile or will he remain peaceful.

Will he follow me upstairs?

But you will never win at life
