Yeah! Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is my favorite but I have played a lot of traditional roguelikes

Caves of Qud is pretty newbie friendly in terms of UI and how easy the controls are to learn. It has a really cool aesthetic and world to explore, and while the combat is not the strong point, it has really robust cooking, trading, mutation, and cybernetics systems. Plus it's much more fun to simply explore in that game, finding settlements and traders and factions and ruins is a really fresh experience compared to the usual endless dungeon diving of the genre

Infra Arcana is a really streamlined and simple, but fun, lovecraft inspired dungeon crawler. It's probably one of the easiest ones to just pick up and play if you're somewhat familiar with the genre and it's quite addicting thanks to the simplicity

Tales of Maj'eyal is pretty accessible too, it just requires you be willing to read a lot of lengthy skill descriptions and decipher dozens of lines of stats on every item. Compared to some other games it's extremely combat focused and you are from the start semi-locked into one of several classes with unique skill trees, synergies, resource systems, and more. For example one of the ranger skill trees focuses heavily on "mark"ing a target and other abilities key off of that, meanwhile other classes might care about how many cursed items you wear, your HP, a mana/stamina pool, etc. I'd recommend this one if you want a Diablo 2 roguelike cuz that's what it reminds me most of, right down to having "elite" enemies who drop piles of color-coded-by-rarity loot

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is a post apocalypse/zombie survival roguelike and while I never got very good at it it's really fascinating and extremely deep, the focus is on just day to day survival but it's got vehicle/base building, hunger and thirst and cooking systems, and massive amounts of crafting tree stuff to play with. My personal problem is that I can never live long enough in this game to do any of the cool stuff I read about ;_;

I'd also be remiss not to mention NetHack because it's so infamous and it's also the first roguelike I ever played. I'm not sure if I'd super recommend it over more modern options but it is extremely charming and a good baseline to start from. It's got pretty much all the things that you would expect, for better or for worse: potion/sPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Yume Nikki is not a game you can beat. It beats you. Anybody who says play without a guide is bullshitting. It is impossible, or at least a lifelong search.

Uboa is one of the best places for civilized people. Glad to know that you are one of the cognoscenti. Maybe I read a post of yours and don't know it's you. Delicious.

Awesome looks great I love roguelikes and this seems really in depth.

On top of the other ones sushi roll suggested, powder is a really user friendly newbie roguelike that is very enjoyable. Then there is rogue survivor, which is one of my favorite games ever. It’s a roguelike set in a zombie apocalypse. Not like you would think, it has a very unique atmosphere and draws from older zombie archetype's. Although I don’t think it ever got finished, it’s very much playable and technically beatable and you should definitely play it. Finally, there is a little know roguelike called mujahid, it’s based around stealth mechanics and was written in 7 days. Definitely worth checking out.

Ultrakill Act 2 is a tough cookie.
The last stage that was added in particular, crazy nuts. Love the buildup towards the fight more than the fight itself.

Come on bro, this game was a soggy cookie if anything. You should play snail Bob. NOW THAT WAS A TOUGH COOKIE THAT GOT MY HEAD TURNING.

VS and KO potraits

I would love to go to an FGC event but I suck so much I would just waste everyone's time.

Not exactly the same thing but I went to a Dungeons & Dragons thing once. A friend was involved it running it and he invited me along. I enjoyed it in the way, I suppose, that a foreigner enjoys visiting a strange land.
Hard not to have sex, if you want. So many thirsty girls there. (Weird and not pretty but…)

Anyone going to EVO2023 in Las Vegas?

How difficult is it to pick up? I've read that you have to pick up a guide to fully grasp it at first.

The final section is the most tedious shit I ever done in a game holy shit

Played for about 15 minutes. Couldn't get through the first dungeon thing. Kept getting eaten by the first enemies you encounter. Decided to quit.

I think you gotta be quite insane to go on the monster hunter deep end.
A lot of the really nitty gritty quests are behind a lot of fights with monsters you fought before already.
And this isn't something that you can just change, these fights can take quite a while.
Thankfully this isn't so much of an issue in World, since there is a bigger variety of monsters in High Rank there. And I don't wanna touch on G-Rank because I haven't got there yet but I'm fairly excited, even if monstahs are much easier.

I've heard from other places thats it's been really streamlined and casualized with easy to spam combos and very predictable monster attacks. Any truth to this or is it just the usual shitposting.

>>473
To be honest, it has been a lot easier to figure out monster patterns. I wouldn't say it makes the game easier. As far as streamlining, whether or not it makes or breaks the game is dependent on your preferences. If anything, the first real problem I ran into was the amount of monsters at launch being so small,thankfully, combat is fun enough for me to not care about what i'm fighting, as long as i'm fighting.

Monster Hunter co-op on pc? What a sweet dream.

I've been playing World on PC a lot as of late, after beating Alatreon in 3U.
Got to Nergi but he one shot me. If there is anyone that wants to go huntan' my steam account is this one

(mind me, I wanna go huntan', not just get carried).
Also, I main HBG so I hope that isn't a deal breaker

Viva Pinata. It's a game about attracting living pinatas to your garden with plants, terrain, scenery or other pinatas. The game has some child-friendly violence with predators hunting prey, or smacking an unwanted visitor with a shovel, but they explode into treats when their health is depleted and reform themselves outside your garden perimeter.

It's like a survival horror game without the guns or (non-disaster related) horror

Just a heads up, the optimization is terrible. I've given it a go this summer and I've had a dreadful experience, though it still can be fun if you're willing to look past that. :)

Yeah it's not the greatest. You get a few wifi warriors here and there, but I still like the fast tempo gameplay.
