      Anything else being called a roguelike is revisionism used to market games and ignores the fundamental contradictions between adventurers and dungeons

      I wish caves of qud worked well with a controller, I do couch PC gaming and that’s one roguelike I’ve been wanting to try

        I think it might be better since the 1.0 release a few weeks ago. Feel like I remember something in the notes about improved controller support

    I sometimes think about what Marx would make of the failed spartacist uprising and the successful soviet revolution. Germany was the one place where the “ideal conditions” for socialism were present - Urbanised workers, industrial, politically aware, etc. and it got crushed.
    It’s not like he didn’t account for it, but I wonder whether that would have made him revisit some things. I’d also like to know what he’d main in smash. Then again he could be a LoL type.
    Likewise I am curious about how knowledge of climate change (to the apocalyptic extent we see it) would affect his work.
