  • Today we're reviewing the indie 'gunslinger' rogue lite, Dust & Neon.
    Thank you to the publisher for providing a review copy.
    The aspect ratio isn't a permanent adjustment, my recording software just didn't play nice with this game outside of my monitors native resolution.

    Don't normally comment on videos but just wanted to say this is a great review and it's obvious you've put a lot of thought and preparation into it.

    I was so onboard until I heard "level-locked bosses." Eww!
    Thanks for showcasing so many smaller games with scripted content, btw. Happy I found this channel.

      Small games deserve edited videos too :)

    I noticed that you had Enter The Gungeon in your gameplay footage. While being my favourite roguelite of its kind, to this day, the diminishing returns of its meta grinded to a halt. Mechanics like this have a tendency to burn the player out. I wish the developers would prioritize satisfaction over total play time hours.

    Sounds about what I expected from the demo: it had really punchy, satisfying and strategic combat akin to The Ascent or Synthetik so I wanted to like it, but it didn't really give an impression of enough meaningful world design, story progression or build diversity to keep it appealing for a long time. Maybe pick it up on sale eventually, but with so many other roguelikes, hmm...
    Came here from your Gedonia review and I'm liking your nice and concise review style: keep up the good work!

      Thank you for your comment.
      Big agreed on the Synthetik comparison…it’s got that same slower paced style but lacks the build diversity and incentives to play any longer than a dozen or so runs.

    i got this for few bucks on a sale, and wanted to watch a review to see if my gut feeling was correct. Basically from the first 3 missions I was getting a dreaded feeling that the runs were going to feel identical. That's the same problem I had with the dungeon crawling in Moonlighter. I felt like I was grinding to upgrade weapons to grind to upgrade weapons etc etc. Too bad

      i noticed that, great game or not it feels like a lot of effort was poured into it, but that's the era we live in, so many games no one has time to cover them all

    30 dollars? Holy moly man. I'm looking at this game right now on sale for 4 dollars. Doesn't look like a bad game, though.

    I just brought it 3 days ago and now I’m already frustrated with it. I should’ve watched this before I clicked the buy button 😭

    shotguns def op, u can one shot anything mid range to almost long range once u get a good epic to legendary shotgun. Quick fun game for a session or two

  • @diesopain260
    @diesopain260 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You should try if you commute, best on switch or steam deck if you had one coz each session is short and doesnt take too much game hours
    Its a fun cover shooter imo though it had some flaws

      At this point, I'm tired of half-assed ones. Go all out or go home.

    If someone frustrated with this game wait while u play TMNT splinter fate that game is more repeatitive than this one, Dust & Neon is way better than TMNT splinter fate, i will try this game for sure.

    Looks really fun, but I despise rogue games.

    One of my favorite games on switch. I hate fps.
    I’m more of a gears of war, resident evil, sniper elite guy. This is the only game that feels like it belongs in that category.
    This game is very similar to hong king massacre except you don’t die after getting shot once. I bought rogue trooper redux and it’s was average. Dust and neon is more of what I was expecting
