None.

The ASCII version of this game is surprisingly clean and understandable.

I really like the ASCII tilesets. They look really pretty and still allow me to see a lot at one time.

The default ASCII display annoys me because it’s taller than it is wide. I like squares.

I am using the coleen/mshok tileset. The ascii only was the only thing that kept me from playing this game. Ithough that there where no tilesets for it butwhen i learned of them i started playing the game. The ascii grafiks are functional and understandable but at the same time to me very ugly . I am not that dependent on grafikbut no tilests = non existent grafik. Iam very gratefull for all the work coleen put into those grafiks together with mshock \<3

edit: I can t wait for the addition of dynamic avtars that display clothing and mutation /aprehensive

I am playing with RetroDays or Mshock, depending on current mood. If you ever wanted to see snow in Cataclysm, you can with Mshock at winter season now. It is so cool to wake up at morning 1st day of winter and see everything covered in snow…

Square ASCII.  
It also has to be small - I think my current one is 8x8. I’m too poor to get a proper monitor, so 8x8 is the biggest size that works well for me.

Using Colleen’s right now. I just don’t feel like developing the matrix vision required for ASCII.

None. The only problem is that the original font isnt as square as I’d like. I still have no idea how to add a new font as a tileset, so I just live with it

Ascii, like 13x13 (2560x1440 screen). It’s not that hard to add custom fonts.
