Are they the 'epics' of their time, or some things that are less well known?

That was a pre-steam purchase. One of the few old games I no longer have. I could see playing it again.
I kept one chacter in the intro area and leveled him way beyond normal by letting the monsters kill me, which I guess leveled them up, so I could get poinst from killing them again. Dood was like level 17 in the intro map.

I remember people doing that! I never did it myself (way too grindy for me), but it's pretty crazy the game let you do it

Oh yeah. That was grinding for the sake of grinding. No point, other than bending the game. Its not like the extra levels helped all that much. But I was king of the newbs.

17 is impressive. I think the furthest i got was 14.

I had a buddy who got to 20, before there was a title iirc

I was in a phase. A stay home and drink and play video games till I pass out phase. Plus, I like breaking stuff. That motivates me.
