They offer just the right amount of tension and rewards, especially when you try to clear them at lower levels. I could never stomach playing on hardcore mode, where a single death means your character is finished. I salute those who do! Our roguelike dungeons offer a taste of such a daring commitment by requiring no deaths on each attempt, and that\u2019s the perfect balance of risk and reward for me.<\/p>\n<p>These dungeons are just the tip of the endgame iceberg though. Between the Crucible\u2019s wave attack mode, the Shattered Realm\u2019s infinite progression, and our super-bosses, everybody is bound to find enjoyable goals to strive towards.
