Playing a nostalgia 0.10.3 run atm as DECj. I have a bunch already and I'm only on Lair:5...
- Animals running in fear upon low health
- No summoning cap!
- Conjurers starting with Bolt of Cold and Freezing Cloud
- Inventory weight management (and making various stashes of useful items you can't carry because of it)
- Poison chunks (That you can eat with poison res)
- Ring of sustenance
- Ring of regeneration
- +x, +x elven/orcish/dwarven weapon
- Scrolls not IDing immediately & the scroll ID minigame
- Stabbing, Traps & Doors skills
- Elemental schools antitraining
I'm sure I'll find more gems on this run
Here's some screen clippings that'll hopefully bring back good (bad?) memories from our old folk here:
When Dmsl was badDmsl (but at least wouldn't randomly expire for no reason?)
Old ugly thing tile, running away from the old OP Ice Beasts+Freezing Cloud combo
Freezing cloud being a free auto win in Elf (and pretty much all of midgame); this was when clouds didn't expire out of LOS
Old inventory/interface icons
Look at all those extra floors (and branches!) of free experience!
That silly giant skeleton tile (and lovey-dovey OODs)
That infuriating '""""''feature'""'"' known as item destruction
A lament to all the removed flavor monsters: RIP rock trolls, mimics, cute bumblebees, cute boulder beetles, cute jellyfish, cute ravens, the old ancient champion
That one door vault
If anyone is interested, there seems to be a lack of the Win32 releases on the official 'old releases' page on develz
http://crawl.develz.org/release/?C=N;O=D (only the macOSX vers. available). I got mine 0.10 fix from SourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/crawl-ref/files/Stone%20Soup/. Yeah I know, SourceForge and all, but so far, no virii/adware/horribly mutated computer
