It is the year 2025 and everything is a roguelite now. Even the games of yesteryear are getting randomizers and procedural generation shoehorned in, and Half-Life 2 isn’t escaping either.

Fortnite had been removed in late 2020 after launching its own in-app payment system that bypassed the App Store’s payment system (and the 30% commission), a violation of Apple’s terms, and Epic took Apple to court.
