Were-creatures are a challenge early game. Best to take them with ranged weapons, or attack wands. Hit and run with Elbereth if you have no other options. Getting lycanthropy sucks!

NetHackathon Twice a year, Twitch content creators stream NetHack continuously for over 48 hours!

Nethackathon is this weekend! A full weekend of nethack streaming.

dota and nethack, two of my favorite games mentioned at the same time in the wild. 🤯

I think the speed runners skip soko but im not sure. I had a 5 and a half hour ascension in November, which is super fast for me, I don't really go for speed. But yeah, the world record is less than 1 hour if you can believe it, pretty impressive stuff.

Some people can ascend nethack in under 2 hours, but for normal people yeah lol usually more than one sitting.

grats!

i was trying to think of what birds are in nethack, raven is the only one i think... unless you count cockatrices, which in my mind are some kind of flightless bird.

You might be thinking of nethack, they had to change the way it does random numbers because someone was able to use the old way to guarantee infinite wishes. So now it seeds it in a more complicated way that is harder to replicate and abuse.

.......@B.....

The raven bites! The raven blinds you!

Some levels in nethack are not procedural (or only parts of some levels) but the majority of the game is for sure.

Nethack is a hard game, but it can be beaten. Good luck when you come back to the game!

The more you practice, the further you will get, and eventually ascend.

you can do it!

I was so mad at myself all i could do was laugh

Your boss will never know 😉

You can get a usb numpad, i did that once for a laptop i had with no numpad so i could play nethack.

*is*

That is fair. Good to push yourself.

wow you are playing a lot of nethack, 63 ascension this year is a ton!

-17 ac for astral is a bit low for me

how to stream nethack / nethackathon

From the comment i was responding too, they use a german keyboard so y and z are swapped.

Ah yes that is a problem. One time i had a laptop without one so i bought an external number pad just for nethack 😂

If you use number pad you wont have to worry about swapping the Y and Z keys
