Most of these give you a way to revive yourself so why not make a mode that just, removes the permadeath?
Because then you'd realize you can beat these games in 20 minutes

>>727709948If this screen is in the game, it is a roguelike.
>>727709976It's not.You don't know what Rogue is or what it plays Like
>>727710192Nta, but most people don't and most people don't care. RogueLITE and RogueLIKE are interchangeable at this point. Who gives a shit? You have Autism. Which is the actual problem here. Autism is not something we should've made socially acceptable, but somewhere along the way we made the mistake of giving you people a platform. Autism is a blight on society.

>>727711562You're welcome, retard.>>727711592You want newfags to leave? Start pay-walling the site.
>admitting to being a newfagnice, kill yourself in the most embarassing way to be discovered possible
>>727709948Removing permadeath from a roguelike is akin to removing firearms from an FPS. That is to say it's an unexpected choice but it hardly means it can no longer be the same genre. An FPS game with wands or spells or whatever the fuck is still an FPS even if you aren't shooting firearms. And if you're still a grid-based, turnbased with simulturns, RPG, with randomized worlds and progression that resets upon death or victory. Getting hung up on permadeath in particular is kind of silly. It's not as if you removed the RPG systems or anything, then it'd truly be impossible for it to remain a roguelike.
>nice, kill yourself in the most embarassing way to be discovered possibleOh nooo. I'm a newfag on an anonymous basket weaving forum. It's so over for me.
>>727709651>PermadeathI once read a post by a retard that said he played all games with permadeath in mind.I can't really understand the appeal of this niche trend I've seen a couple of players adopting, game design often is based on the universal concept of respawnig after a game over.
>>727709651Actual roguelikes, yesModern day ai slop like slay the spire, issac, etc are built around rng and not roguelikes so they can do wwhatever the fuck they want
>>727714454Minecraft hardcore is the only thing that has made me come back to that game after a 10 year hiatus.
>>727714636Yeah but that's a mode made for hard-core players I guess (I never played Minecraft), but imagine getting into a new game and after dying ONCE you are like "well, I'm done with the game, I died", for me is too stupid to even comprehend.
>>727709651Having multiple lives usually just serves as a system of giving the player a limited number of undershirt mechanics. Basically, if you have 3 lives, what it really means is you can make 3 mistakes before you lose on higher difficulties.Of course, the question is just "Why not have an appropriate health bar and enemy damage" but you know these devs are not able to do that.
>>727709651If you play bad you should lose the run
>>727715205Minecraft hardcore is minecraft with permadeath. It's a lot more fun to me because the stakes are a lot higher. If I have to start a new run because I died, so be it.
Minecraft with permadeath is just Minecraft at a higher difficulty setting. It isn't suddenly a different genre from Minecraft without permadeath.
>>727709651Permadeath makes progress much more satisfying.Not sure why you'd want to rob yourself of that.
>>727716530Did I ever say it was a different genre? No, I said I liked it more than Minecraft without permadeath because Minecraft is boring to me without it.
>>727718406>Did I ever say it was a different genre?No. But there are people who make that claim.
