It's a rogue-like.

What does that even mean

"Roguelike is a subgenre of role-playing video games characterized by a dungeon crawl through procedurally generated levels, turn-based gameplay, tile-based graphics, and permanent death of the player character."

Get your Google on, bugs.

"Roguelike (or rogue-like) is a subgenre of role-playing video games characterized by a dungeon crawl through procedurally generated levels, turn-based gameplay, tile-based graphics, and permanent death of the player character. Most roguelikes are based on a high fantasy narrative, reflecting their influence from tabletop role playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons."

I do.. but the permanent death part

So if you make it to the end of the game and die.. you start all over??

When you die in the Matrix, you die in real life

Sometimes, but in the few of these I've played some of your progress carries over in some ways. In Rogue Legacy, for example, when you die you continue the game as the son or daughter of the character that just died, and you can use all of the gear that your "parent" found, but the map randomly generates and you've got to start from the first room. Each generation, you can spend coins t upgrade your lineage. It's fun, I swear!

That does sound fun as hell, actually. How many generations deep have you played?

I am so addicted to Crusader Kings 3. It's the perfect blend of grand strategy, RPG and insanity.

Undertale is lovely.

Diablo 2, Path of Diablo mod. Best game ever created.

Doom Eternal to Game Pass next week will probably be my next game.

Nice! I greatly enjoyed the 2016 Doom.

I have no one else in my life to tell about my video game accomplishments, so just wanted to throw out there that I earned the endgame collectible card in MLB The Show 2020, the 2019 MVP Mike Trout card.
