Yeah, I went in casually. I had a bad time, died twice, and never knew what was going on. There are better games, IMO, unless you’re really itching to replay ADOM from your youth.

Im seeing Qud make the news rounds. Its overwhelmingly popular on steam, but IMO that’s because it’s only being played by its core audience. If others pick up because they’re seeing it on the news, I think they will be in for a rough time and that rating will reflect that change.

Really? I find that surprising. My experience was that it was keyboard heavy.

You’re being pedantic, but I’m sure you understand the point.

I saw a lot of negative comments in a YouTube thread. I only played the OG once, so perhaps it’s not sacred enough to me, but what I saw looked good.

P.s. when I completed my first playthrough, it was in 2021. My experience is that the original is not as good, now—compared to modern games and storytelling—than rose-colored glasses might suggest.

I had no trouble recognizing him.
