Question from someone who has not played Rogue Core

I’ve been thinking about whether if I should buy the game or not and have been reading Reddit posts and watching people’s takes on YouTube. Now with all that’s being said, I think i’m good to go and buy but the part that’s iffy to me is the shared perk system. This worries me because I feel like the point of a roguelike is to mess around and experiment with builds and yet I’m unsure if you’re able to freely do that in rogue core. From my understanding you’re not always first pick and that some perks are better on other characters. If im a new player and I have first pick, I want to try out perks but if someone favorites that perk, then am I wrong for wanting that perk? Maybe they have more knowledge or it’s better for their build but I want to try it out. Does that put me in the wrong or uncooperative? Or maybe because I have yet to play, my understanding is wrong? I don’t know but shared perks just seems weird in a roguelike and not healthy long term since it affects replayability. What are your thoughts on this?
