How Roguelike FPS Succeeds Where Modern Triple A FPS Fails
Modern triple A fps has been in an... interesting place as of late, and it's kinda disheartening to see since I have so many fond memories of big budget FPS games from way back when. However, in its stead ive come across a new nostalgia worthy genre, one that is consistently outplaying triple A fps in nearly every metric there is. So heres my ted talk on that.

A Roguelike Sequel Done Right | Hades 2 Early Access Impressions
Просмотров 2473 месяца назад
Though I didn't play it extensively, I loved the mess outta Hades, so of course I jumped at the bit when Hades 2 early access released and promptly tested the extremes of my sleep schedule. Hades 2 has a lot to live up too; it will probably be compared to the other very successful roguelike sequels we've seen release like risk of rain 2, spelunky 2, and TBOI rebirth, and it has a very high bar ...
This Hidden Gem NAILED Roguelike Combat
Просмотров 3,3 тыс.5 месяцев назад
I love me sum good fightin in roguelikes, and its often a big reason I love the roguelikes that I love so much. However, if I'm being honest there hasn't been a roguelike that combat really stuck out for me as THE predominant feature of it. Plenty have had combat be a great aspect of their game, but usually the combat alone is not the top must-play factor to those roguelikes. Then, everything c...

    Great video! I really like your style and how you built the interest, congratulations. I suggest to the roguelikes superfun (like myself) to not stop at the strong introduction. Even though I don't agree with the repetitivness being such a big flaws in roguelikes. I mean, of course it's possible, but it depends on the amount of content provided. I played already a good amount of roguelikes and I have many of them with more than 100 hours, in which I add the chance to try always different things. Also, "when you reach the final boss you're done" in roguelikes it's definitely not true 😉 as you know since you provided a lot of footages from different games. One for all: The Binding of Isaac. When you beat Mum for the first time, you just completed the tutorial. For the multiplayer aspect... There are already roguelikes with multiplayer! Again for repetitivness, it's definitely decreased with alternative biomes and items/playable characters (as you mentioned later in the video). But repetitivness is less noticeable with variety and often doesn't seem a negative aspect of the game. Still, you're point is absolutely correct because there are some roguelikes that suffer of repetitivness and you leave them after like 15 hours. But those are the bad roguelikes. Again, great analysis (and great choice of title 😋)! Hahahah the end is great! To be honest, a bit of repetitivness in the video is present, but it's absolutely ok and, as many roguelikes, enjoyable 😉 Congrats!

    Indie devs and games are where my heart is. AAA is concerned with earnings, making investors happy, and maybe after that deliver a mediocre product at best. Indie devs do their games because they love it, with passion, that’s what I want, that’s what I’m looking for. Culitc, Dusk, BPM, Boltgun, Cruelty Squad, Ultrakill. A few exemples of recent ones I really enjoyed and recommend. Bless indie devs.
