Hello friends! Is there a lemmy community for roguelikes? I am, in this case, looking for a place focused on more traditional roguelikes (DCSS, CCDDA, BROGUE, etc)

If there isn't one, no worries, send me you're favorite unknown traditional roguelikes. I'll tell you mine. It's called "Empires of Eradia" it's a more open combat focused RL with a unique twist on permadeath. It's got great crafting and a strong focus on risk reward.

That's the spirit. I've played dead cells and rouge legacy

Adding to what @Grenfur@lemmy.one says:
Roguelites like dead cells etc draw inspiration and mechanics from roguelikes.
The main differences are rogue etc are tile- and turn based in a sense. Nothing moves unless you move.
And the in depth meta progression in the modern rogue lites wasn't really a thing in roguelikes.

I remember in Nethack you could technically remove some monster types permanently and find "bones" of former runs but that's about it.
