Dave the diver and made the mistake of trying vampire survivors, that thing is fucking addicting to me. Already had a taste of it with halls of torment but this type of game really gives you that "just one more run" feeling

Man, I just don't get that from vampire survivors. I loved Binding of Isaac and can't stand vampire survivor or brotato as the endless waves just seem... Boring and then the builds seem obvious and usually pretty easy to force.

I just never get that pull to do one more round.

That's the thing, I don't understand why these games feel so satisfying to play, I have so much good stuff on my library to play and this simple ass game where just pretty much grind your way to the end like you said to the other user is what keeps me entertained

It's a chore to do that requires little direct thought or input in a complex world full of too much to do? Seems like it scratches a similar itch to the cosy gamers accept with more fun to the audience that doesn't like pulling weeds
