    Mmm, I'm on JellySlayer's side of the issue. At first glance, yeah, maybe making mundane monsters less homing sounds nice, but I think it would slow down the game more than you expect. It's not just...

    Hey man, I've been playing on and off for over three years and I've only made it past the ToEF thrice. Sometimes I think I should feel pretty bad about it, but I'm still enjoying the game now and...

    For the most part, difficulty is based on Dungeon Level, which is tied to the dungeon you are in. As you descend floors, difficulty increases, though it is not always a one-to-one ratio. There is...

    It may be intentional, but is that a good thing? I'm with them - pet kills should count towards the quest. I know I'm basing my experience on games that have come after ADOM, but minion/partner kills...

    When it comes to attribs, I think they were talking more like "10 is average for a baseline human", not "10 is average for gameplay". Of course 10 is awful for most stats, because you've got to...

    I'm not taking sides here, but I think one interesting side effect of reducing the amount of piety required to pre-crown would be that prayer's relative cost would rise. In effect, the amount of...

    @Jeremiah - Are you playing the prereleases? Food saccing has been nerfed AFAIK. Also, the only statues I've run into were negative for me. I've been confused, had my gold stolen, and other such...

    Racial sacrificing is pretty weak, I'll give you that.

    I'm in favor of no change. I only precrown if it's easy, e.g. altar on a dangerous level. It usually doesn't take that long. I am a fan of...

    Yeah, off the top of my head a 4x4 square would instantly lose everything in the middle, followed by some dissipating borders. Maybe they stabilize, but I bet it would take a lot of room. Perhaps you...

    If you haven't already, you should cozy up with the 'w' key! If you press 'w' and then '5', you should wait approx. 20 turns, or until something hostile comes into view. I think it is 20 turns by...

    I would prefer if they lasted much longer, but then the stats shed faster. A small buff to the actual stat gain would be nice. This almost sounds like an RFE... *hint hint*

    Hmm... the only part I can help with is the 'all my weapons are gone' part. There is no real reason for this to happen. AFAIK, anytime an enemy picks up a weapon, it will drop it upon death. If you...

    Neat statue:

    You stumble upon a statue. A mighty hero stares down at you from the golden pedestal. You are awed by the strong and yet graceful curves. This is truly a godly figure. Oh wait... you...

    I'm pretty sure it is common strategy to read them out in almost all situations anyways. It's more of an exception when you don't want to read out a book.

    My only suggestion would be to not anger Jarod (the Healer) next time :P

    Sickness will wear off eventually, but there is frequently one last bout of fever that finishes off the weakened PC.

    Vergil, the gray elven duelist, saved the world with his brave efforts and
    became a great ruler without even stopping to save himself.

    Finished the game in one sitting? How long does it take?
