Angband forum
Thanks again for the recommendations - I'm picking up variants from - I saw PowerWyrm in another post talking about this.
I'm surprised at the amount of Japanese variants the game has, and the amount of experiments that the game has sparked. I tried some multiplayer variants (Mangband, PWMangband and Tangaria) and while they were great (Tangaria was my fav from the 3), the actions go through a little too slow for my taste, with the server sync and whatnot. I guessed it would be nice to post an update here, so that's the idea of this reply. My main issue is that I feel its wilderness is kind of a mess, I absolutely LOVED FAangband's idea for the wilderness. The bots cant compete that well with top human players at this point - I dont recall Nethack bot doing ascension streaks comparable to high level human players, Angband borg takes a lot of in-game time compared to human players. I'm still in the quest of finding my perfect variant, although now I know more about what I'm looking for: The one I've had the most fun so far is FrogComposband, the sheer amount of options are just too tempting, and it has some QoL that I've learned to love, namely Mogaminator(my beloved) and macro keys setting in-game. Angbands borg just happened to end up being more comparatively popular. I found both FAangband and NarSil pretty limiting in terms of playable races and classes (Perfectly reasonable for the setting and cool differences between them), which other variants tend to flesh out more. Thanks to both, I've been playing different variants over the last week, and while they all hold their charm, I realized I like having options the most. Thank you for taking the time to read the post, and I wish you win all your next runs! I hope I don't offend any variant creator or maintainer - They're doing incredible jobs on their games - I'm just looking for something rather particular. They're still incredibly playable and I'm enjoying them a lot, but I was wondering if there was any variant that would feature these QOLs? I'm talking damage numbers in weapons, percentage hunger, in-screen feelings, 32x32 tilesets (This one is the one I'm missing most, and Bigtile mode generally is kinda buggy), detailed tilesets, and surely other features I'm missing. Recently I've started experimenting with variants, and while I'm amazed at the innovation and customization all the variants have, I'm surprised most of them are based on older variants or older versions of vanilla, which make them miss a ton of QOL changes vanilla has gone through in the latest versions.

I have seen screenshots of people using fonts that are different than what is standardly used. Originally written to be played on a university mainframe, it was quickly ported to run on PCs. Does anybody use different style fonts for angband, other than the ones that come with the game I would like to find some nice full screen fonts to play Ascii style for angband that will show a little bit more area on the screen. Angband began as a fork of the earlier game Moria (via a rewrite from Pascal to C) and was first released to the public in 1990 as version 2.4.fk. * Another helpful activity would be to check the list of ''']''' for frequently linked-to articles that don't exist yet.
