Isn't that kind of just a problem with an upvote system being used for unpopular things?

Also I'll drop mine in here for the sake of it, although I get the sense that lemmy in particular will be more likely to agree with me than the broader population: I hate meta progression in roguelites. I still end up playing a lot of games with them because unfortunately that seems to be what sells in that market compared to more traditional roguelikes and if the game is good enough, I can try to look past the system. However, I do think that they just strictly make the games they're in worse. I could get into a whole rant about them, but maybe not here.
