Nope, I tried it several times and I just can't stand ASCII graphics. I'd rather play Dota or anything else instead.

Fair enough-- for me a lot of the joy of the game is in using it as a collaborative story teller and filling in the gaps it gives me. Having underspecified graphics gives me more freedom with my mind's eye, but I can understand that not everyone approaches it the same way and wouldn't get the same out of it even with a lot of effort.
