Comment on Why there are 861 roguelike deckbuilders on Steam all of a sudden
Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 7 months agoAre there any other genres named after games? I’d say rogue is the exception.

Soulslike and Metroidvania spring to mind.
As games become more and more complex these kind of genre defining sets will become more common I think.

I do see your point, but in this specific situation the genre already has an accepted name

Didn’t we start this chain by saying this genre needs it’s own name?
Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 7 months ago
Well, you did. And you also directly acknowledged that the genre already has a name.
It seems to be your opinion that it needs another one, even though the name it has is already so well established that it has its own steam tag.
