this is, apart from being the only game I play _constantly_ for over 13 years, the game that inspired Diablo.
just now I am playing Nakor the 30-level monk on my way back through the dungeon to the surface and beyond. I have the Amulet Of Yendor with me (the real one, not a cheap plastic imitation), my pet Archon is carrying the blessed, rustproof +7 Sunsword while I am using my Grand Master Of Martial Arts skill... I genocided mind flayers and demi-liches, had a chat with Croesus, Medusa and some major demons and being generous to the community brought me to armor class -42.
I am, of course, living on a strictly vegan diet and this game has already taken 80+ hours (real time). still, I have a feeling I won't be lucky this time and will have to start again...
so, is this enough to keep you interested? or do I have to tell you what happens if you find yourself being naked and drunk between a Succubus and a nurse (yes, this happens in Nethack)? if you find yourself in this situation, be sure to bring your camera...
this is so funny... have.. to.. go.. andplaysomemorebye.
