If we get more proper roguelikes on Steam then hopefully that'll become less of an issue. In particularly I want the people who played Binding of Isaac and thought "bleh" to come across Brogue and think "oh, maybe this genre is more interesting than I thought".

I simply didn`t know that all  I always wanted the most from videogames -depth, originality, attitude, complexity, emergent gameplay and so on is just few links away.

Just an off-topic aside; that is EXACTLY what I felt when I first played NetHack. I was amazed this had always been out there!

Alan's voice sounds almost like Benedict Cumberbatch.

Ha! That's new. I often get "soothing"; this is the first time getting "Cumberbatchian".

We've now reached the milestone of 100 episodes! And what better way to celebrate it than to talk about many deaths:

The episode includes YASDs from many devs and communities members, with Andrew and I making general fun of them :)

That was a fun episode! It was also pretty informative, giving insight and thoughts about certain roguelike mechanics.

Keep it up.

The new one is an interesting format, I think. With Roguelike Radio usually having themed episodes - either on a particular mechanic or a particular game - the wider ranging discussion prompted by the Q&A feels a bit different (at least to participate in).

What did others think?

Good episode, though I have to imagine it makes it harder to write up the little summary blurb footnotes after the fact given the wide berth of meandering inherent to the topics at hand.

It's even harder to write the summary when unable to listen to the episode and on a mobile in an airport ;)

Kornel's episode was nice even I was (and still am) disappointed to what happened to GenRogue and higher goals in roguelike development. But I can understand it if you want to make money/career out of programming it's important to concentrate on making actual games (or if you simply find other things in life). Still, I would argue that from the old guard I'm the one that hasn't quit (at least not yet). I'm still aiming for that next gen roguelike.

I think first developers of IVAN are finnish, so it's one of the few roguelikes from Finland. Wasn't Frozen Depths guy also a Finn?

So it seems like Finland is a roguelike utopia!

Finland is one of the countries that is producing roguelikes. I think roguelikes are a good indicator of perhaps even generic intelligence level of a country: countries that produce roguelikes have smarter people than countries that do not produce roguelikes. Of course USA is an exception, because it's a multicultural country and there are big differences in people's abilities in that country.
