Default Re: OT - Who wants to write a "roguelike" game? How about a 4X?

The only point I was trying to get accross is that syaing Roguelike=ASCII is wrong. (Look at it this way, 'Rogue' is a house made of logs, roguelike is a house made of many materials [ie stone, brick, metal] saying it's not a house because it's not made of logs is stupid. Rogue is the concept of a dwelling with a roof, doors and windows. Rogue is not the idea that if we cut down trees and make loge we can build a house.)

blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda... add infinity,.. It's an old arguement. one with no winner, and it's such a heart felt concept that there will always be difference of opinion...

omg! 'Rogue' is just like a religion. (j/kd'ing)

(I say six you say half a dozen)

nuf said, Cheers!
