      I imagine the servers would have been shut down some time ago, if not for the confusion.

      “So are we shutting down that game? What’s the name?”
      “Let it Die.”
      “Alright.”
      “What are you doing?!”
      “Shutting down the servers…?”
      “Why?”
      “… You said let it die!”
      “I didn’t! I said it’s Let it Die not let it die!!”
      “What?!”

    This is awesome. Should be the normal way to do things!

      I don’t think Robert Frost said that.

    I sure didn’t expect this from a free-to-play game. Nice job, GHM

    Offline mode is nice, but for a game with core online features they really ought to release a dedicated server.

    This game

    Rogue

    Can we please stop calling every game “Roguelike”?

      Yeah it’s clearly a Roguelite

      Agreed, TotalBicuit has a really good video on the difference between roguelike and roguelite

        And even then you’ll get the Berlin Interpretation people who would still say he’s wrong.

    Well I guess I’m glad I didn’t like it because I just found out about it last week and was checking it out.
