A major concept in the definition of roguelikes is missing from the article: grid-based gameplay. In, say, a first-person shooter or a platformer, one is not limited by points on a lattice, while no object can be "half-way between" cells in any major roguelike I've seen. Of course, that's just another barrier to break. [[User:Nnz|Nnz]] 03:08, 27 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
