7.1 Parting Shots:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to your doom. This is not a game for the impatient. In comparison, modern CRPGs are a crutch for the weak. The price you pay to beat this game is a great deal of time and effort. The rewards are obvious, because people who can beat Rogue know how good they are, they know they're gaming gods. If you're one of those maniacs determined to beat this game like me, good luck. If you can get past the 16th floor, you're obviously lucky and smart. I wish you the best. Go get that accursed amulet.
