See, I'm not sure how these types of games are supposed to be played. It's brutally difficult, but there are no permanent buffs you can buy for your characters after each run to make things more manageable. Sure, you can buy new facilities and equipment that might drop in the world, but I never felt like I was improving in a tangible way - which makes me not want to continue doing subsequent runs. I've played a lot of roguelikes in my time and but none of the ones I've actually finished feels like you're starting back at square one (literally) when you start a new run.
