Congrats, OP.

I put as much effort into this post as you did the entire thread.

I nominate this for thread of the month because it is such a well-presented argument and OP perfectly backs up their opinion with examples for why they feel that way.

'Hades...

... Sucks.'

Huh. 🤔

Thread lock or is super minimum effort allowed here?

Funny though, just got off from playing it and reminded myself how incredible and cohesive all of its elements are.

You made it all the way to 2021. Lived through a year so terrible people are calling it a lost year...and you still put up this low effort OP.

I'm thinking of picking Hades up on the EGS because I have a $10 coupon, but I'm not a huge fan of roguelites. The reviews are so amazing though; I'm really torn.

K, I'll pretend there was some attempt to discuss.
Roguelites are a very special genre, your enjoyment of them rests almost entirely on the loop and how satisfying the progression feels. I can see how someone might feel underwhelmed, but it's one of the best in biz. And obviously, it's fine if you don't like it. Play something else and enjoy!

To be fair I'd actually like to hear more from OP on why cos I don't like rogue likes but people won't stop talking about it, and seemingly that even folk who don't like them will like this one...

Wow. Enjoying the criticism here.

Feel free to take pitch fork.
Oh are you serious? I'm not into Rogue-like games myself so Hades isn't really my flavor, but if you're going to create a thread with a contrarian point-of-view and do nothing at all to back it up, it's not people coming at you with pitchforks. You've created this thread. It's yours. And people are correctly dunking all over you.

Check the FAQ on thread creation guidelines, 'cause this doesn't meet any of them

edit, for posterity ^^

I can't help but feel bad for the OP. It can be really frustrating when you invest a lot of time in a thread about how roguelikes suck and it doesn't go down how you want. But what's nice is that you can learn from how this thread failed and try to succeed when you start a new thread from scratch.
