TL;DR - It’s a game so have fun
I was trying to get a win with a Berserker. In true Berserker style I was trying all sorts of different races & weapons. Eventually playing just became a chore until I realized DCSS is so much more than just one class or combo. Do I want to win? Sure but getting there is much easier if I’m enjoying it.
Just a friendly reminder for anyone stuck like I was.
