Favourite RL?

[Harmacist]

Aside from CoQ, what's your pick? ToME, ADOM, DoomRL...?

DCSS

I mainly liked Powder for awhile (more than other Roguelikes). Used to play Dragon Crystal on the SMS (master system). Hard to remember anything else.
Really enjoyed Rougelite games, well Spelunky mostly (Rogue Legacy too).

CoQ attracts me because of it has a bunch of things I like:
I like apocalyptic and futuristic style games.
Like games that mix swords, magic and advance weapons (guns).
I really like games that let you pick superpowers.

Thanks man, googling Dragon Crystal made me find Fatal Labyrinth. I've been looking for the name of that game for 20 years, played it tons on my Genesis.

Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode and Cataclysm. And Caves of Qud!

Could have asked, I'd have gladly pointed you to the electronic time capsule.

For me the list looks something like this:

ADOM - cause it's my first one *blush*
Cataclysm - it's just too customizeable/random not to try over and over ;)
DoomRL - cause I do love me a good Doom mood
NeoScavenger - that mix of graphical inventory management and proper crafting with RL suspense is just too good
Broken Bottle - small, simple, free game, but the mood/theme is phenomenal. A must-try for all post-apocalyptic fans out there.
AuroraRL and Prospector - cause the feeling of exploring the space, one planet at a time, has never been done better in any game ever, triple A or otherwise.

Ancient Domains of Mystery of course. And not just because I helped out a little with it. :p
Check out "Adam Taylor" in the monster memory (hit &). That's me. :)

Nethack, a great classic.

Sword of the Stars: The Pit. It's a fun sci-fi roguelike. Though I'm not a huge fan on the item degrading stuff. :p

Tales of Maj'Eyal. Another great roguelike with tons of depth.

[DarthSimp]

Actually, CoQ is my first roguelike ever. Didn't even know what a proper roguelike game was (the term is used a lot instead of roguelite, so I thought that, for example, Rogue Legacy was a roguelike. Yeah, I'm ashamed).

It's just an amazing game and it's making me love the genre. I'd love to try more, so I'm using you guys to find out more roguelikes. Soo...thanks to everyone!

For now, the other roguelike that I'm playing is Dungeons of Dredmor, but I dunno if that counts.
Also, I'm terribly fascinated by games with permadeath and roguelites in general.

Infra Arcana.

I've been playing Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, ToME4, This (this really has engaged me), Cataclysm DDA (just scratching the surface of this), and Sil.

I like Sil's straightforward mission (it's more traditional, and based off Moria/Angband, but holds more true to Tolkien's mythology), and appreciate its ASCII graphics quite a bit. DCSS has a lot of options, but hasn't been grabbing me as much as Sil. I think it's becuase I can get a bit futher in Sil than in DCSS. There's a lot to explore in it though.

I tried ADOM but found the dungeon layouts to be quite boring. There's a lot to do in the game but it didn't grab me at all. It could be that I'm still a novice, but so many straight corridors with small rooms didn't really make me care about the dungeon.

So far CoQ, Cataclysm DDA, and Sil are my favorites.

Personally, I like Nethack best. I think that, in respect of 'roguelikeness', Nethack has got much closer to the point than other games claiming to be roguelike ever could. I mean, a roguelike game is not only about featuring permadeath, being turn-based or using ASCII symbols to represent the in-game world. These points may be important to a degree, but they are not essential to the term 'roguelike' in general sense. To my mind, the quality of roguelikeness relates to the spiritual side of a game rather than to corporeal matters -- what pure ideas lie behind its gameplay features and what feel it has to it. So I'd say The Binding of Isaac is one of my favourite roguelikes too.

Personally, I loved Rogue when I played it, and I was trying to find games like it. I incredibly enjoyed games that were ASCII based, so I decided to go and try to find some. The first one I found was UnNetHack Vulture. I couldn't stand the camera angle, so I went and found a normal UnNethack release. After playing that for about 3 years and ascending my 2 character, I decided to go and look for more RLs, where after trying many different ones, I found Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup Tiles. The camera angle is ok, and I particularly enjoy the B/U/C system, the Religion system, the different species and classes to play as, and the different branch types.

My progression has been something like Hack & Moria on the Amiga, then Nethack and Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup via terminals, and now Caves of Qud. It's the first tiles-based rogue like I've seriously played, I think. I'm interested in trying some other ones at some point, especially with all of the recommendations in this thread, but it's bad enough how addictive I find any of them.

While playing Qud, I miss a lot of the interface features from DCSS - the stable view, the targeting interface, the waypoints, the pathfinding, the auto-explore (doesn't seem to work quite as well in CoQ yet), the searchable stacks/stashes of items if your character doesn't have amnesia. I don't miss picking up harmful mutations mid-game, though!

[Synechdoche]

Cogmind! Killer interface, beautiful game, lots of strategic thinking, unique setting and playstyle.

The issue I've found with Roguelikes is that they either take themselves too seriously and are too taxing to play or take themselves too lightly (rare) and are imbalanced. CoQ has a good balance with easy to understand mechanics where you can jump in without worrying about making a horrid character and dying miserably and boringly.

[Sammi79]

The original 'Rogue' of course :P
