Respawning monsters on HNTR (M)

--- Quote from: White Rider on September 09, 2013, 10:28 ---Losing IS fun. I'm glad there are people here who understand that, unlike the simpleminded simpletons in my day-to-day life whom I've tried to persuade into playing DoomRL. They lose one or two games on ITYTD and ragequit forever.
Then again people have tried to get me to play Dwarf Fortress and I'm always like "uhhh no, too much stuff to learn"
--- End quote ---
Yeah, I also learned the hard way not to try persuading people into roguelikes in general. The basic "die and learn" rule is usually too much for them :(.
Luckily, there are friends of mine who are used to play arcade games at one credit only. They, as well as myself, find similarities, both in the approach, and in the achievement sense after winning a game on single life only. Those are generally more susceptible to our genre.
Ah well, spreading the faith is difficult at times :).

I'm an avid Dwarf Fortress player, so yes, losing IS fun. I might also add that this run ended hilariously. AoD+AoMC is VERY difficult, especially when everyone shoots you for max damage and perfect accuracy from outside your vision. Oh well :D
