Wrong.

>hasn't been a decent new roguelike since cogmind, almost a decade ago
>every roguelike thread is still plagued with people playing open world survival slop and tome
why bother

I always try shilling Demon in these threads but it never works

i tried it but i still like dcss more, might just be nostalgia at this point from playing dcss back before they changed everything so much.

>>717795975 (OP)
only true roguelike i've played is Shattered Pixel Dungeon

>>717795975 (OP)
Haven't discussed Elin and before that Elona to death here? Those are roguelikes, no? Dunno if they're any good, though. Never played.

Cogmind is the best modern roguelike

>good roguelikes

>>717796673
They do, but the intended gameplay is so different from classic roguelikes I personally categorize them as regular RPG's that happen to have roguelike qualities.
They're very good if you want a particular flavor of sandbox rpg grinding and don't mind some jank, both intended and not.

Elona is a visual novel.

>>717795975 (OP)
same reason we never talk about good smelling dog shit

>>717795975 (OP)
the problem with roguelikes is that it's hard to talk about them because avoiding spoilers is a central component of maximizing your enjoyment of the games
