Sunless Sea

Huge grind for very little payoff.

I love me some rogue-lites. I put in over 900 hours to Dungeons of Dreadmore alone. But this game just isn't the one. I had big expectations for this game, but it has ground me down to total dissatisfaction. The main problem I have is that the gameplay is just soooooo slowwwwww. There were times when I was nodding off waiting for my slow boat to chug slowly back to port. In addition, instead of making progress as I went along, I felt like I was slowy being crushed into zero supplies and zero money, to the point where I would just commit suicide because it was easier. Speaking of, you have perma-death with barely any carryover between generations. If you love an atmospheric game that will cause you to either pull your hair out in frustration or fall asleep, you have a winner.
