Comment on My (re)discovery of roguelites
Badabinski@kbin.earth 4 months agoNoita is probably my favorite game of all time, and it's an excellent rougelike.
Noita is great and extremely unique, but I dislike that once you find a few orbs of true knowledge your runs always start with getting those first. I’m usually too lazy to get the one at
the pyramid
before ending mines, unless I can get a good teleport spell.
I don't bother with those unless I'm specifically going for all the orbs. Like, I'll get the closest one, but I don't bother with the one you mentioned or the one that makes the boss spawn. There's usually enough health to be had once you know your formations, and if you want mondo amounts of health, there's always the heart mage trick. I don't go out of my way to dig gold in the mines for the same reason. You can win without doing it, and it just breaks up the flow too much imo.

It’s an amazing rogue like for sure. It’s tough to get started but before I knew it I had over 150 hours into it, a golden crown on my head and a golden amulet on my character.
