I'm a shitty roguelike player, but I can mash X in Brogue like a champ #gameing

Is this how it's meant to be played early on? Because honestly the first couple of floors don't require much decision making unless you get a floor with lots of pits #gameing

@drjeats Yes, I believe it's a compromise meant to ease new players into the game without making things too tedious for more experienced players. Using X past then is very risky though.

@aleax Ah that makes a lot of sense. I'd never tried explore or autoplay before, but now using it definitely helps with first floor tedium.

And of course, I just tried to autoplay floor 2 and a damn bloat got me 🤐
