Rogue lover who is looking for his new game after a long absence. Help!

it’s been ages since I have had some spare time to sink my teeth into a video games (work family leisure pick 2 of 3) and I am looking at roguelikes my old friend. I have been off the scene for nearly a decade and am wondering what would scratch my itch’s. I’m sure these posts are frequent and annoying but hoping someone can help me out.

For reference Here are some of my all time favs:

caves of qud

tales of maj'eal

into the breach

FTL

catalcsym DDA

Sword of the stars: the Pit

What I Love and am looking for:

  1. unlockables - I like earning things and knowing my playthrough isn't always in vain. Not necessarily to make the game easier; but a different way to play (IE new class, new weapon, new location whatever)

2.permadeath - I like tablestakes and knowing every move/second matters.

3.Passable Graphics - I know there are alot of old school ones but I like SOME graphics... Not looking for top of the line but as long as its a hair above symbols to represent things.
