What's the most annoying thing in Angband (without dying)? - Page 2

misanthropope · December 8, 2020, 16:27

when youre at a shallow depth and the staircase hides from you. idk why, i dont even care about turn count, but yeah. "out of my way vermin, i have an idiotic death to catch!"

also i sure wish packs of hounds could breathe ball effects, that would just perfect the experience.

How about being told that you failed to concentrate hard enough? I was concentrating! I was concentrating!!

Oooh, I got a good one: Players who make DEMANDS (not requests) of unpaid volunteer developers!

Not finding Free Action before 1250

Confusion

oh yes - and lightning destroys your rod of teleport other.

Or the cold hound/impact hound/earth hound destroys that gain stat potion right as you were going to pick it up!

Nexus attacks that teleport you to another level. (Especially when you're about to pick up that ring of speed you just identified but haven't yet made space for in your inventory.)

Yea, just had my hobbit rogue Bumblef*ck, with "Superb" stealth, creep up on a pit of sleeping Druadan Mages only to stumble upon a wandering Terrified Yeek...

Actually I did like that. It forced me to solve problems differently when running around with a rouge having str and wis swapped and it was quite memorable for me.

Sometimes it was challenging and fun when that happened, sometimes it just made the game far longer and more tedious, sometimes it was a gamekiller.
