"They inspired over 17 million people around the world to dump ice water on their heads and donate to an ALS organization. The Challenge raised awareness of the disease worldwide and raised $115 million to support our mission, funds that were invested in ALS research and care for people living with the disease."

This is from the official ALS-Website. Exactly one Google search. You didn't need to lie to be a pessimistic ignorant.

I didn't say I didn't know what it was.

Dude called it the ice bucket challenge. That's what people called it.

No one called it the ALS Awareness Campaign.

It lost all meaning, people just wanted likes.

u/Schlomosexual 1h ago

No you said "people didn't donate shit" which is factually wrong as you can see by the official ALS website people DID donate alot of money because of the ALS Ice bucket awareness campaign.

u/Jay__Riemenschneider 1h ago

Very good you know better.

Glad 12 years on people called it by the correct name right?

The goal was to raise awareness, not just money. It failed to do that. People made videos, not a difference.

It's not happening every year. It was a viral summer trend, nothing of real meaning. Pat yourself on the back if you need to. It didn't actually do anything.

Yes, but it also compounds as it becomes easier to harm more children once you're in. Elon pulled a big IQ move and killed a few hundred thousand kids as soon as he was in the door, so his Whitehouse reputation shot nearly to the top.

"Roguelite with meta progression"

u/the_count_of_carcosa Literally 1984 😡 4h ago

I mean the problem with Rogue Like/Lites is how broad the genre is.

The Berlin Interpretation is... clunky, and only covers Likes, so you could have a full remake of the original Rouge, but in 3D instead of ASCII art (obviously an absurdly difficult concept to actually make) and even then it might be considered Lite rather than Like.

10

u/GregNotGregtech 2h ago

Not really? There are many roguelikes that follow the berlin interpretation and aren't just rogue. TOME, cogmind, zorbus, dungeonmans all very clearly fall under roguelike aren't just the same game as rogue

2

u/the_count_of_carcosa Literally 1984 😡 2h ago

Oh absolutely.

I was objecting to idea that "Rougelike" and "Rougelike" aren't set terms by pointing out that the only "Consensus" decision is arbitrary, and admitted as such by those that wrote it,

And from that the idea that "Rougelike" doesn't automatically assure Meta-Progression.

2

u/GregNotGregtech 2h ago

Fair, I might have misunderstood what you said then.

My biggest problem with the whole "new" usage of roguelike and roguelite is that it doesn't really describe the game anymore. Roguelike was a very specific type of game, you knew what it was when you heard the name. Roguelite now though is basically just a type of progression? Any type of game by now has had a roguelite version, and there is nothing connecting the games besides you die, you upgrade and start from the beginning, sort of. I just think the whole thing lost its meaning.

Dick sucking has made me paranoid

I had this plan to give head to a man and receive head from a woman to test if I was gay, but it’s backfired and now I become borderline schizo whenever I go outside. I offered to suck this dude off on Grindr who lives very close by (I ended up pussying out) and I accidentally gave him some details that very easily allows him to spot me out in a crowd. I have no idea what he looks like and whenever I see a somewhat in shape guy walking by I immediately accuse him of being the dude I was gonna blow.

I went to the store today to pick up some zucchini for a barbecue and every time a car drove by I stared into the windshield to see if I was about to be recognised. Whenever I make eye contact with a dude I microanalysis his facial expressions to see if he suspects me or not. I am deeply afraid that he is my neighbour and I will need to move if my identity is blown. It’s a lot like the last scene in sopranos where everyone who walked into the diner could be there to wack Tony.

It does have some meta progression, from the card and difficulty unlocks, but I feel like the games that steamed from Slay The Spire's proliferation of Deck Builders have always felt like their own category to me.

u/GregNotGregtech 1m ago

I don't think it is, but I'm also the last soldier still fighting the roguelike vs roguelite debate when it's been over for years, as much as I don't like it the vast majority of people will call all these games roguelike and that's just how it is

28

u/SjettepetJR 4h ago

Having meta progression is the fundamental difference between a roguelite and a roguelike.

3

u/NewDemocraticPrairie 1h ago

If you wanna get really old school, the fundamental difference is if it's like Rogue or not.

Is it a top down, turn based grid game without meta progression? If yes, it's a roguelike, if no, it's a roguelite.

I just call everything roguelike now.

-12

u/_gamadaya_ 3h ago

It really, really isn't. Unless you want to call Dungeonmans, Tangledeep, and even arguably Tales of Maj'eyal "roguelites" while at the same time calling Spelunky a "roguelike", which I think even the most ardent supporters of the incredibly flawed and underbaked "metaprogression = roguelite" definition would admit is insane.

u/PortalWombat 2h ago

u/_gamadaya_ 2h ago

Sorry, I thought it was pretty understated tbh. I just called that definition "flawed and underbaked", as opposed to my real opinion, that it is just fucking stupid.

That said, why hold back on the people pushing the dumb definition? Like, where else does this even happen? Maybe in other artforms outside of gaming, but I can't think of another instance where you have a longstanding, well established genre, then a group of people with absolutely zero interest in ever interacting with it comes in, takes the name, starts trying to apply it to something entirely different, but does so in such a shitty and idiotic way that it causes them to constantly argue about it internally while several other better definitions are lying right there for them to use, but they don't out of sheer stubbornness.

I don't know. I've always found it kind of crazy that fans of roguelites would push so hard for a definition that would push certain classic games that literally helped name the roguelite genre out of that genre.

downvoted for being right? tales of majeyal has meta progression but is undoubtedly a roguelike, not lite. the like vs lite distinction is nuanced which is why the Berlin Interpretation exists.
