A bit of a weird title, but basically what’s a game that’s more than a year old but still considered “modern” that you love? There’s no real strict definition for modern, I’d just like to see some discussion around great games that aren’t quite classics yet (but probably will be one day).

The nature of this community typically attracts discussion around decade-old games (which is what I mostly play too), but I’d like to see some newer (but not too new) games on this post.

    Hades is absolutely the culmination of so much experience in modern rogue-lite games and game development.

    It’s sequel comes out soon and I’m not going to be patient about jumping head first into it.

      I hated roguelikes until I played Hades, decided to give roguelikes a try again. Realized It’s just Hades that I like.

        Definitely a legit take, there are very few people I wouldn’t recommend Hades to, if only for enough playthroughs to get to the “end” of the story. Though there is so much past that
