Some classics never get old, and Risk of Rain will always be one of my favorite roguelikes. There's really no point in comparing it to everything else. Even with new adventures and more ways to play, nothing quite replaces that first feeling of being stranded alone on an alien planet, completely lost, wandering around with no idea what to do, and fighting desperately to stay alive. Those memories still mean a lot to me. The gameplay, the story, the music, and all the little details that kept me coming back were something special. To me, Risk of Rain has always been more than just a great game. It's a piece of art I never get tired of revisiting.
