  Nethack is like the Jumanji of games. You finish it by introducing someone else to it.

  Death Stranding is one of my favorite games of all time that I will recommend to literally nobody.

  If you can try version 3.4.3 that was one of the last good ones imo. 3.6 has hard nerfs to so many ways to survive in that game, none of it fair imo. I ascended 3 times on the old version and can barely pass gnomish mines now, it is torture.

    I was never very good at nethack, but the 3.6 nerfs felt very mean lol.

      Most recently I found that the speed system has become meaningless in order to make it harder. Eg I found a mimic, which had 3 speed, playing an Elf, with 12 , in the old version you would get 4 turns before the mimic would be able to attack, but it hit me twice in 2 turns and instantly killed me. Then I have to google patch notes to find out why I died… Thanks dev team!

  Death Stranding is one of my favourite games, but it’s definitely not for everybody… I’d recommend giving it another go at some point, but don’t expect it to change too dramatically.

  I think I beat it once, but only after a shitload of save scumming.
