One Life: videogame in which you die once and can't play ever again

So they took hardcore mode and are trying to make it the only option in the game? Wow, this is a horrible idea. If it was free, fine, but to pay for it? No.

I've already done this with Minecraft and Starbound, and I still have the game : P

It isn't just roguelike. That would be bearable, as even if you didn't keep any progress, you could keep playing the game. Instead this is only a single life. That's it. Die and you can no longer even play the game. It is something beyond roguelike into the realm of "why in the fuck would I ever buy that".

This is an awful, awful idea. If it at least came with retries, building up from scratch, okay, but it would only take one unlucky moment to completely screw you over. Yeah, no thanks. Hard pass. Even for those seeking a difficult game, this is the equivalent of jumping the shark in terms of difficulty.

Yes, I agree with you... o_o
