Can roguelike be online? I would only play if you could interact with other players.
Not unless you're proposing a real-time Roguelike. Which would be weird.

I suppose a hybrid game that's essentially a <i>bona fide</i> offline Roguelike with a simplified, multiplayer-oriented online component would be nice, but it'd also be a hell of a lot of work. Better to just make a multiplayer dungeon crawl that isn't a Roguelike at all. Something like Egoboo, only... well... complete.
Alright I take that back. I've enjoyed many single-player text-based games. The most fun is when you and a friend are just playing single-player at the same time and chatting on teamspeak or something.

So, I'll play if it's realistically detailed.
