The thing I liked a lot about my former-favorite roguelike, Crawl, is that many of the character combos play very differently than the others. Some have unique characteristics not found on others, leading to a different play style and experience.
Contrast that to Nethack or Angband, where the races generally just have different strengths and weaknesses but generally play the same.
I'm looking for a variant that is fun (duh), has character combos that are varied in playstyles, etc, and something with a great item system and balance.
My 3rd party info told me that PosChengband kind of fits this description, but the loot drops are a bit wonky and level design not always the best compared to a game like Tome 2. Is that accurate?
