>Deep Rock Galactic 2 just dropped>no threads
can you explain the game or something at least? Im not looking this shit up, parsley
>>737873729Looks like shit
>>737873729Is the ratchet and clank game they made good?
>>737873865You play a robot cowboy. You take a flying train to a map where you can find your main objectives, secondary objectives and optional points of interest. You go through the map and finish the last objective off with a boss fight. Then it's a mad dash to the train station with an infinite wave of enemies (which are spooky skellingtons, some also cowboys) attacking you.You can move around on foot or by robot horse and bring a few options for primary, secondary and utility items and 3 spells, which are elemental and syngerize with eachother. You can then spend your earnings on traits for your weapons, character, spells or cosmetics.It plays well and has a lot of random upgrades you can gamble for like fuck noises for footsteps or low gravity. The gunplay and movement are tight and come with a dash. Higher difficulties are actually pretty challenging. It's themed around hordes of varied enemy types unified by a skellington theme. The maps van have modifiers and secrets.

The gameplay is good. Shooting is solid, movement is solid.Balance is wonky. Bottle box is just better than the healing box. Many spells seem like trash. I unlocked dual revolvers and they aren't very good.The exploration can get annoying as you pixel hunt for the last grave, or the last bell in the west, or the last cactus child in the desert, or the last shooting target in the canyon, etc.There isn't a whole lot of gameplay variety, the game expects me to grind for literal hundreds of hours to max everything out but I already fought every boss and did every main objective and exploring new areas is just not fun.There is an amount of millennial quirk chungus cringe that is almost comparable to that of Mouse PI, but at least it's just shitty reddit memes without political preaching. Granted, if they dial it up even 5% - I'll be reconsidering the viability of my purchase.Overall, I'll keep playing it. It's fine.

>>737873729I played the demo and I decided to skip it.The gameplay is fine, but "exploring" the map (going from objective A to objective B to optional quest C etc.) gets boring fast since it's an obvious "voice-chat room" moment and none of my friends wanted to wishlist it after the demo fest ended.
>>737882946>"voice-chat room" moment could you please elaborate further on what you mean by that? I just don't quite grasp how the fact of having to move around the map for a few minutes in between shooting enemies bothers you guys that much
>>737883342>the fact of having to move around the map for a few minutes in between shooting enemiesAre the maps even that big?
>>737877584fair enough, thanks!
I love cowboy aesthetics but this didn't do it for me
>>737883342>having to move around the map for a few minutesBecause, at least in the demo, nothing ever happens in those moments. You never get ambushed by annoying enemies that forces you to deal with them, you don't need to sneak past an overpowered enemy, etc. Rushing to the train station after defeating a boss is cool, but that only happens at the end of the mission.It's just a moment to chat with your friends and argue about how we forgot to complete an optional objective on the other side of the map. Unfortunately you can't do that if your friends decided to skip the game and your only options are playing alone or with randoms.
>>737877325>AkimbotGoing by the demo, it sucked colossal dick.
really tired of seeing these thinly veiled ad threads. buy an ad.
Hard mode is hard.
>>737883342>I don't know why nothing happening for few minutes at a time bothers you so much
>>737885907this is the ad
>>737873729looks fun, thanks op.
It's nothing like Deep Rock.It's basically a combination of Helldivers 2 map and objectives mixed with Gunfire Reborn upgrades and horde fights.It's pretty fun though so far. Adding a horse mount that you also benefit to use in some boss battle mechanics was neat.
How fun is it with randoms?Deep Rock was the only coop game that managed to make randoms being actually fun to play with.
>>737885907You cant talk about videogames on /v/!
>>737886918DRG has a major flaw with its assignment system.If you're playing with randos they joined your quest because it's eligible to their assignments. As soon as it's over they have no reason to stay.The game only works when you're doing modded lobbies with dudes with all the unlocks just playing for fun.
>>737873729This game is a genuine slop. 6/10.
>>737873729Why do you niggers keep saying it's liek DRG when it's completely different?
>>737887203
But does it have fully mineable caves?
I remember playing the demo for a couple hours solo. Twas alright.
>copy the worst aspect of helldivers 2 which is CINEMATIC FOG>crank it up to 11>first person horde shooterReally now.
>>737887817After I played demo I wanted to leave them a feedback about the insane amount this piss fog. They told me to post any feedback I need to join their shitcord.
i turned off the shadows so i can see shit better. its hard for my old shit eyes to make out where the enemies are, its all grey on brown. Shotgun feels really good, especially with faster reload. bow feels really weak, seems it becomes a aoe bow but way further down the progression. im favoring electric spells, really want that portal spell.
