00:34 <rumflump> Too Nethack, jonadab :P
00:34 <rumflump> arguably, potions breaking when they fall, and scrolls burning, is also Too Nethack
06:21 <jonadab> Evil Patch Ideas are too evil for NetHack as well. I collect them, purely for perverse amusement. I have no intention of _implementing_ them.
06:21 <jonadab> The only variant that really goes out of its way to _implement_ the evil patch ideas is Slash'em Extended, which you already don't want to play anyway.

19:42 <jonadab> thrig: Well, I don't think Brogue monsters _should_ pick up items.
19:43 <thrig> because they'd murder you even harder
19:43 <jonadab> It would create major balance issues, yes.
19:43 <rumflump> DCSS is slowly moving away from all kinds of itemdest, jellies are barely even a thing now aside from their corrosion damage
19:43 <jonadab> If they picked up and used scrolls of enchantment, that would be evil.
19:44 <rumflump> picking up potions and wands is like, the last remnant of itemdest in dcss, and not many monsters will do the wands
