Deadcells. Loved the art style, combat looked fun. I was so excited to play a new metroidvania only to discover it's a rougelike and that killed all interest in playing it. I just really dislike that kind of game.
"Roguelike Metroidvainia" is the most perverse and stupid subgenre. That's not what a fucking MV is! That's just a type of roguelite with traversal, there's nothing about the structure of a MV that survives a format where the map is constantly thrown out and re-generated.
I suppose, though I think of all the whinging to that effect I've done in this thread, this comment might be the least contentious claim. The comment I replied to expressed at least an implied belief in the same issue.
Yeah i stuck with it for it while, had two end boss cells i think and felt like it got more tedious than fun the more i played. I have a lot a positive things to say about it, but it just didn't click for me the way something like Rouge Legacy did

I really wanted to like Deadcells too. Heard good things about it and like rougelikes. I don't think ots a bad game, but it just didn't click with me
I played quite a bit of Deadcells but I can totally see why someone wouldn't like it. It also ended up getting somewhat tedious eventually

Yes that is exactly when I stopped playing, it was either at 1 or 2 boss cells.
On the other hand Hades is always a jam
