After one hell of a journey, I'm back home again.

Got leftover pancakes to tide me over this latest popup of depression. Woo.

Playing Sil again... 

Spoiler: end game spoilers (click to show/hide)

I'm storming Morgoth's throne room for the second time.  The first time I got my ass kicked without ever seeing Morgoth.  This time I've killed all the boss monsters in the room except for Morgoth himself.  I knocked his crown from his head, and have pried one Silmaril from it.  There are two more, but trying to get another broke my best weapon.  It keeps saying "Perhaps you should use a different weapon", but none of them work.  Is it time to GTFO?

Edit:  Oh shit... I understand now.  Yeah.  Time to GTFO.

Shit... almost made it...

I met a fate strikingly similar to Fingolfin's...

SALMONGOD WHAT IS THAT. TELL ME NOW.

SALMONGOD WHAT IS THAT. TELL ME NOW.

SALMONGOD WHAT IS THAT. TELL ME NAO.

Not any different, but it looks less obviously a copy of Xantalos and Putnam.

Download?

Just to save some lazy people a google search. Was on first page searching for just "Sil" though down a bit.

Anyway, Sil's pretty darn decent even if I'm not particularly fond of it myself

Haven't played too much, though. Too busy playing T4, and Sil's a little too minimalist (I guess) for me. Or maybe just too *band, even though it's about as *band as T4 is nowadays.

Maybe I'd just like it better if it weren't Tolkien? Tired of Tolkien based/heavily influenced roguelikes at this point, I think. At least at the moment.

Anyway salmon brought up Sil some pages back. It's a Tolkien themed roguelike that isn't an Angband clone to the point of nausea.

I named a Cataclysm Character MaximumZero. This apparently injected him with enough badass to punch a Tank to death.

It's a fucking awesome roguelike

I think it's only about a year old, but already very mature.  Very fresh design.  I've never played another roguelike that felt quite like it.  It's a heavily gutted and altered Angband variant.  It's also very Tolkien-savvy.  It's supposed to take place in the first age of Middle-Earth, and is very careful about only incorporating lore from that period of the mythology.  A full winning game takes roughly 8-10 solid hours of play.  I can verify this, because I was very close to winning the game just now.

I don't suppose your arm, and the Silmaril with it, is now in the belly of some canine abomination?

The Code accepts him. Truly, this is proof that he is great.
