It’s been a while but I’ve played this for hundreds of hours. I highly suggest playing terminal mode, your imagination is far cooler than any tile set and the in game description of things are very detailed considering the ridiculous amount of stuff in it. I once lived long enough to build a fully military armored RV, the memory of it still feels like a whole other life, with a tragic ending. Don’t drive too fast into unexplored territory.

Also terminal mode in Cataclysm has advanced ascii art, unlike older games like nethack. It's a joy to play.

Death by turret?

Laser shooting eyeball creature. I survived the blast but my stuff was destroyed or scattered everywhere and I wasn’t armed well enough or healthy enough to get out of it.

I still remember how I lost my RVdeathmobile due to slippery road — the car felt from the bridge. It was such a nice car — with superalloy platings that I took from downed heli, plently of clean water ( I was boiling it in batches and filling one of RV tanks with it), all sorts of fuel and even turrets!

Fanniest death was caused by exploding arms. I found a distant house by the road and tried to make it my base. One night my char woke up due to the pain — fingers have exploded or something like that happened! I think it was some sort of fungal infection and unfortunately I had no medicine for cure...
