I love Souls likes but flooding the market with one specific genre is never a good thing.

The number of survival games or indie roguelite games is at the point where I actively avoid them now. Ive played so many I dont want another one for a while.

The trick with roguelikes is to get addicted to 1 and not play another game for 10+ years. So you don't get sick of roguelikes in general.

Every game these days wants to monopolize my time, which I do not like either. I just play what I want, and I find myself more and more playing old classics because of the better variety they offer than newer titles.
