Comment on Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding
Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 1 day agoBut Scylla and the Sirens featuring Charybdis doesn’t feel as different to me as say the Collector vs the Champ. I like the randomness and didn’t realize until this comment- though you could argue the music for the Scylla fight is random at least!

I think the harder versions add a lot of variabilty to the fight. The “default” Scylla fight is almost an afterthought after your first dozen times, but the harder version is immensly more complicated. Same goes for prometheous + spoiler, etc.
I think with a hundred more runs, these would also get old hat, but thats true with hades 1 as well. If you run the bosses 112 times there, the occasional “suprise” boss isnt really that intersting, esoecially if you’ve seen them 35 times. Seeing ol “muurrder…” was novel, but only to a point.
