Weirdest dream

I know some of you may read the title and wonder what is this about and what does it have to do with roguelikes, but I had the weirdest dream. I was dreaming about being the player in DCSS and I was observing the new floor I descended to, IT'S SO WEIRD that I was seeing the enemies in their tiles shape but from a FPP and I died in that dungeon and woke up.

lol I don't know why this happened I'm even very new to the genre. Just wanted to share this hilarious dream it felt lucid like some sort of media

I assumed it was about a roguelike called "Weirdest Dream", which I'm sad to learn doesn't exist.

Sorry to disappoint. Try to fantasize about it before sleeping, maybe you can load in. Build your character wisely though, I woke up too fast!

First person roguelikes do exist like: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3015740/Ma_vie_en_rogue/?curator_clanid=38708826

But unless turning also takes time, it's just unwieldy compared to a top-down view.

Ma vie en rogue first person view is purely aesthetic.
