funny how this encapsulates roguelikes so much, you have to replay over and over again to expect and experience something different. I find that kind of gameplay uninteresting, boring and not even dopamine inducing idk why.
 
They would be better as real games tbh. Resetting yourself from level 1 every time is just dumb and unfun even if you can upgrade your character a little and start with basic weapons. I like variety in weapons/spells/skills but those constant resets are annoying. You either feel too weak due rng screwing you over or too op due rng giving you op shit. There is nothing in between.
 
They often feel arcadey to me. But just with some specific differences.

I feel like many roguelikes like Downwell, or Orbital Bullet could easily be adapted into arcade games.

Rogue itself is less action-packed but it's still a fun experience I think :hax:
 
I like roguelikes mainly because they have a few things in common with RPGs but at the same time I don't dig the core aspects of the genre, like permadeath, the sheer randomness of everything and the lack of direction. Just tone down all the annoying things that typically define a roguelike and many of them will only get better.

Yeah I felt the thing you said about RNG. Just like in Nightreign where you can either get cucked by the drops or it'll suck you off by giving you grafted or Marias.
 
I think they are very fun
