That's an important distinction for sure, thanks for adding that. Roguelites looks so fun and I wish I could enjoy them but after awhile it just feels like a timewaste. But that's just me of course. I wonder if I would enjoy roguelikes more, not sure if I've tried one or not? What are some examples of roguelikes today? I tried searching Steam but for some reason games use both the tags roguelike and roguelite.
Risk of rain 2 is almost a pure roguelike. The only thing that you can increase from run to run are lunar coins that can be used in a run to buy lunar items with tradeoffs. But other than adding extra variety to the game you don't need to use lunar items at all, winning depends on skill and partially drop rng.
I've not beaten it yet but Noita seems to be a pure roguelike.
