What if life is a roguelike game ?
What if life is a roguelike game ?
What if when we die, we respawn, as another human, or even, another species.
Each life, from birth to death is a roguelike run.
Weew, if it too difficult, will you reset for new run :v ? Just kidding. But also, I know that modern roguelike game have something to make you stronger, and inherited into new run, on and on. Kind of permanent upgrades.
So, perhaps, if this run too hard, endure it. Which will make you "get-gud", and hope for some useful bonus, permanent upgrades for further runs.
What do you think ?
You're viewing a single thread.
Yeah. Basically.
While I don't believe in any afterlife experience 100%, this is the one I choose to believe in the most because it seems like the best. Fade to black is boring, and living forever in peace and happiness would get old quick.
I've never considered it like a roguelike, though... I like it! You can customize any aspect of gameplay before each run or just hit random and go.
Can you customise before run ? Maybe, maybe not.
Perhaps you not yet unlock it Perhaps you do, but you didn't remember. Maybe you need a perk to keep your memory to know how you customise your run.
Perhaps, I purposely choice a hard game for more point, or try to go for a rare achievement. Yah
What about co-op? PvP? PvE?
It use to be PvE. But people decided it will be fun to play PvP because PvE is too easy.
Now each run is so difficult.
I find that understanding the underlying mechanics helps. I always ask why until there are no more answers, and trust myself to know when an answer feels wrong.
trust the process, be patient with the outcome
I like to imagine being able to be transported some place like Tower of God and it being filled with powers and abilities to make things more interesting, but still having new sets of challenges of trying to find a way to the top of the tower while every level is different from the one before and perception of time is different now where hundreds of years is not a big deal.

I feel like this is something that gets misconstrued with the concept of death. It’s not like you’d be left with your thoughts and memories. After death is exactly what before birth would be like. Were you bored for the first several billion years? Eternity is an instant when you’re left with no concept of time.
