Share the one title that actually kept you playing the longest in 2025, and the single factor that made it stick (pacing, updates, systems, or community).
i always see this “you can control it” thing but nobody talks about how your ability to control the rng is dependent on the rng to unlock. it took 15 hours for me to see a single thing that allowed me to change probabilities, and by that point i had already rolled credits. i didn’t get basement access until day 40. the rng really fucked with me, until i gave up. at that point i had 6 start money, and no extra start steps. i didn’t know that was in the game. it wasn’t that i missed stuff either, i solved every puzzle i got clues for, if the rng allowed it.
It does play out differently for different people, but for me it was like this: first half of the playtime I had so many things to investigate at once that I didn’t care about RNG because every run was making progress on something. Late game when I started needing specific things I had already had time to unlock RNG control.
yeah for me it was a struggle to just find threads to pull. i have so many pages of notes that just end because the next step just never came.
