The thread is back! I ended up buying a ton of the ones you showed off in the last thread so I'm hoping to see some more hidden gems in this one

Of those three I think Riptale looks the most novel. The others feel like things we've seen plenty of times before

ItBreathes posted:Without getting into the semantics debate, I think the debate itself is spurred on by the facts that Roguelike was a well established genre unto itself long before the emergence of the RogueX phenomenon. One well past its height of popularity (they're ASCII graphics because they're designed to be played on a terminal) and largely maintained by a bunch of masochists, which means those involved are the kind of people to have very strong opinions on the matter. As a roguelike fan let's just say we saw what happened to the term "adventure game" and the nicheness of the genre just means it matters more to keep the term for it, otherwise it becomes impossible to find them in stores to buy a new Caves of Qud or such when literally every game gets the tag and it become meaningless

Tenebrais posted:There's also loadout options, as in FTL or Into The Breach - as you progress you unlock new start conditions, but after that point the game is the same. Kind of the overlap between character and pool progression. Yeah agreed, liberating stations in Heat Signature isn't really world progression in any meaningful way, because the stations don't functionally make up much of any part of the world you're actually playing in. It's basically a big unlock-features tree, something like the Sphere Grid in FFX or the crafting table in Void Bastards. You could just put it in a menu and call it Unlock Grid and it wouldn't change anything really.

Well that was a whole lot of bad design decisions. I get that they're going for a vibe of "annoying NES game with bad mechanics that no one remembers fondly" but I'm just not sure exactly why you would aim for such a thing. I'm also going to have to vote Moss Destruction. Into the Breach is done to death already and I'm sick of deck games.

One thing about Curious Expedition that I have mixed feelings about is that it constantly feels like you're on the verge of complete failure. You can barely walk across one section of the map and reveal a few tiles before your sanity is completely empty, and then in four more moves you're totally out of all your sanity restore items, which barely seem to make a dent. A few moves later your party is at eachother's throats, and then you stumble on the pyramid and it feels like a total fluke. Your videos definitely captured that feeling well

Great video but it was brutally painful as a Tower of Guns fan to watch you walk right past so many secrets

I like the graphics and styling on that Goner but it looks way too annoyingly hard to be fun I vote Immortal Redneck for next game
