Whats the best roguelike or lite you ever played? For me StS, just started DD2 but runs are long af and Balatro doesnt click

Add Chrono Ark and Rabbit & Steel to the image

Bump

I quite enjoy Nuclear Throne and Redline Crooks.
I crave action and screenshake.

almost all of the games in this pic need to be flipped on both axis for the graph to be remotely accurate

>>717269543 (OP)
A large amount on the right should be shifted left, at least when you acquire enough skill/knowledge.

isaac is easy though, rng will rarely kill you

I've been trying out Astrea recently and giving the final bosses critical chance is an unforgivably stupid design decision IMO. The run that I just lost was probably my own fault for not playing safe enough but I can see this becoming completely insufferable and out of the player's control at high difficulties so I might just stop playing this.

Just out of what I've played recently the roguelike I've been liking the most is Trials of Fire. I haven't played too much of it yet but I'm liking the game mechanics so far and I'm a sucker for the post apocalyptic survival feeling of the game too.

>spelunky 2 more "common person" friendly than spelunky 1
You dont even need to see the endless ocean to know thats a load of shit.
The first area alone is way steeper of a challenge to a new player than the first half of spelunky 1.

I was beating blue baby semi-consistently with 0 item pickups as a 15 year old when rebirth came out, this graph is shit.

StS, easily
The best balanced roguelite I've ever played as long as you don't play watcher

HOW THE FUCK WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW

>>717271187
Exactly what I was thinking, they're all normiegames anyway.

>>717269950
no

>>717272085
You learn by dying to it a couple times.
You will also learn not to use plasma bean orbiting projectile.

>not a single roguelike in the image save the progenitor

>>717272897
shut the FUCK up

>>717272897
it's actually a compass-lite so gently show yourself out

>>717272979
Why?

>>717273039
But the filename says it's a compass for rogueliKes?

>>717273098
Rogue isn't a Roguelike.
You have been baited, now leave in shame.

>>717273098
if you dont know what a compasslite is then stop posting and find a brainlet-type thread instead

>>717269543 (OP)
Noita needs to be dead center in the top (you can technically outdo the RNG but only if you want to spend several hours slowly crawling through every level)
Hades needs to be dead center in the bottom (its a very easy game and can be brute forced with meta progression stats if youre a giga shitter)

>Dicey Dungeons and Shotgun King mentioned
yay
>no dunkey game
darn

On low heat rng doesn't matter, true, but high heat you will absolutely get fucked by it.

STS and FTL definitely are up there.
Surprisingly accurate graph.
Gungeon is great too but damn I suck at it.

had to look at it a second time before I saw noita, pretty ebin :DD
Anyway, putting rogue in the middle surrounded by these normie games on all sides is retarded and invalidates the entire chart

>>717272121
Yeah and? Normies have good taste sometimes too. Not everything has to be some 2004 ASCII terminal-based masochist sim to be valid. Let people enjoy their dopamine loops in peace.

Kiiiiing and Queeeens of the Wasteland we were, and already forgotten the reasons to fight
From the day we were born was bloodshed forever, we've seen enough comrades go dead in the night

StS is still king

Add Empty shell further right and top than Noita

>>717269543 (OP)
Azure Dreams has so much soul, zoomies probably won’t know what I’m talking about though.
