For me, if I ever hear "card-based" or "soulslike" I have absolutely no desire to play a game, no matter how many people reccomend it.

I'm also not a huge fan of modern "roguelikes" but I've sunk days into nethack and games like that.

    Roguelikes, pixel graphics, horror, card-based

    2D is usually a pass, although there was such a game that I passed on for a long time (Rimworld) that ended up becoming my all time most played game.

    Post-apocalyptic and zombies especially have been done to death (pardon the pun) and I just find them boring as hell.

    However I adore open world survival craft and as long as a game doesn't look like total shit I'll give it a try (usually a pirate-jammin try first just to be safe)
