How Broken Can Tote Get? - Backpack Hero

- Backpack Hero Part 18 - they added a ton of new stuff, and this time, I found the interesting carving synergies. I was worried that this character would be less interesting due to fewer synergies, and that's still true. But at least there's this one cool synergy now.

There are items that can be used outside of combat, you have to right click to do so (the dice)
Also right clicking items brings up some cool options like “use as much as you can” and “view card” (view the whole pop up with a scroll bar so you can actually read the whole thing)
Bruh no way that's a Christmas tree still up. And I thought I was bad leaving mine up halfway through February 😂
One year, my mom just left hers up.... for about 18 months lol
@@Nevir202 same
@@Nevir202 ah yes, the whole 18 months of a year
@@Nevir202 isn't that like the normal way of celebrating Christmas ???
Just don't take it down. May be decorate it differently for different holidays, but the tree is eternal
Items have a right-click menu. You need to right-click the legendary die thing. Also, it's the most useless thing ever, like seriously- it does just let you take one more item from the loot already visible.
You can right-click an item like, say, a weapon, and choose to 'use as many times as you can', as well.
it lets you take two relics from one boss
Oooh, that certainly makes it a bit better! Still gotta find 2 good relics at once, though.
@@EmilyGamerGirl there's another dice that's uncommon that lets you reroll
Personally I feel like they should add a visual effect of every time their backpack's space increases the backpack on the character sprites become bigger too, with 3-4 tiers of sizes.
That crimson energy not giving any energy that entire time hurts me
me too.
I now require counseling
same
It hurt on a spiritual level
people often say your upload schedule influencing their sleep schedules. meanwhile me, on the other side of the world, thinks your videos are great to watch while having lunch lol. i admire your consistent daily uploads!
also, it's been some time since you've uploaded a video of Dicey Dungeons. i'm concerned if this is due to burnout or the feeling you're stuck because of the contestants' Elimination Rounds. keep resting as much as you need to, Tyler
same, he uploads at 12nn
He said this week would be a variety week and then there were also a few updates like this one he had to check out. I’d imagine there will be another dicey soon enough. There’s just a lot to play right now.
Not to be weird, but I often fall asleep to Tyler's voice. Very mellow and methodical... just the way I like it. Finish the video when I get home from work.
I draw! I ACTIVATE POT OF CARVING! Pot of carving allows me to draw two carvings from my deck to my hand.
Honestly the thing that I think will benefit this game is more stuff that enemies can do that interacts with your backpack, like disabling items, moving them around, giving them light and heavy etc, I think that 1. will make fights more dynamic 2. Open opportunities for new designs, and 3. help the enemies feel like they are actually involved with the main mechanic the game is built around.
The dreaming sword being vertical when it could be horizontal is painful because he is reducing the amount of damage the shiv carving does.
i think the dice actually increase the number of items that appear that you can choose from after combat by 1, so for example, if you would have gotten 6 options, 7 will appear
It's much more plausible that it's just bugged. This recent update has been riddled with em.
@@linguine1091 good point
7 is the normal amount
@@kiranaun9593 well, then i have no idea
nope, it does allow you to grab a 4th item. you just have to right click it to use it.
Him messing up the crimson energy and being -1 energy for the rest of his run from the half-way point hurt my SOUL.
He didn’t lose any, it’s just that it doesn’t gain anything either
This game does a really bad job of giving the player information in any sort of "at a glance" deal.
@@Juniper_Rose Yeah, although I think they've been getting better at that over time. I actually haven't played it in a few months, maybe I'll go back and give it a few runs now.
The placing of the healing gem was suboptimal for the whole run and it hurts my soul
It would be really cool to see the creator at a sort of "versus mode" where the game keeps track of players' builds and uses that player build as an AI boss fight instead of normal bosses.
Wouldn’t Dreaming Sword accumulate more damage if he used the shiny carving on it instead of the mossy mace?
I've been wondering, you have a shop you can go straight to, so why skip the archery kits and not just take them and immediately sell them
You have to give them a weapon to get the archery kit, and you usually don't have spare weapons. On top of that, shops will only purchase 3 items now and most of the archery kit items are common
While the above is certainly true, I think it's also just Tyler being lazy. He doesn't care enough.
So my question is that now that there's a new character is the first one going to have something unique added to them or is it just going to be a basic while the rest are more advanced once more are added
doubt he'll get a new feature. It makes sense though. Imagine starting the game and you immediately get an additional mechanic thrown at you when you havent even learned the basics.
I can imagine they'll get a loot reroll or just extra choices; and then when playing other characters you'll notice a downgrade in that department rather than having to learn something unique to the beginner character
purse's unique mechanic will be that she'll have the biggest backpack (eventually)
@Engineer Gaming wow thats not what I would of expected
@Engineer Gaming hmm, that's interesting. I wonder if that means there will be other characters later down the line who are meant for stamina-heavy builds or something.
I'm mildly peeved that he spent the entire latter half of the run with the disabled red energy token, that's the one that only works if the spaces 2 blocks away is clear.
He starts with 2 energy. So I think it's working
@@johnsonnguyen6046 he also has the berserker ring, should start with 3 energy if everything was working.
Pot of Gree- I mean carving
"Why would I make enemies weak when I can just kill them?"
Pretty succinctly describes a problem this game has: There is no synergy beyond "More Damage".
Disabling or debuffing enemies doesn't matter. I can just kill them.
Buffing my armor doesn't matter. I can just kill them.
Consumables are only valuable if they help me kill stuff faster.
This game seems fun but it definitely needs to work on that gap; "What's the point of doing any of this fun stuff if the best strategy is killing mobs first"
You have so many of the same fight but the background wall is different. Okay, cool.
It's got SO much potential and SO much charm and Tote is DEFINITELY a step in the right direction, but as it stands...this game has to do a lot more to be worth even 15 bucks. This, as it stands, is a very barebones game. A labor of love, maybe! And it's very cute and, again, it has charm! ...but charm isn't going to keep people from getting a refund after they do the loop in less than 2 hours.
Well sure killing the enemy is the goal. But armore and health is still important. you cant just go to 1k damadge and obliterate every enemy. you need armore and a shield to live longer and you need consumables that give you health, regen or armore to be able to tank more and finnaly kill the enemy. The goal is to out live them and go deeper into the caves. And playing the game out in 2 hours is not really possible unless you only use the duck and charm the enemies till they go to your side (the duck really is eazy) but if you want to try and win as an archer, wizard and... you will need more time and learn more.
You have to right click the dice after combat it then let's you add 1 more item (from 3 to 4)
Challenge for you in this game: take the worst item/weapon/relic every time and attempt to win. Or you can go for a no synergy run.
Its not boring, its nice to know your strats
I was pleasantly surprised that the online version was updated with the new characters, I thought only the Steam version was getting updates.
Ok, turns out the extra characters aren't available in the free version, but the free version did get the new items and gameplay changes at the same time, which was what I cared about more anyway.
I do agree this whole carving system is just slay the spire and not backpack hero
Honestly, I don't like that frog character because of that. Instead of slowly assembling a fun and unique inventory you just start out with busted items, infinite energy scaling and almost no need to actually manage your backpack, since you've got a whole separate wheel with your items.
@@ha-mz3ou have you actually played with the frog character? it's quite interesting how you can make a build that goes heavy on the carvings or how you can make one that uses it more as a secondary aspect and focus mainly on the items
@@axolotl_princess I can see how this character can be interesting and fun, I just don't think it fits the backpack hero style at all, having to manage very card-like carvings and posessing innate abilities instead of having to come up with your own unique build along the way (not to imply you can't do that as the frog, just that the builds I've seen so far tend to focus on(or go hand-to-hand with) carvings, which get boring fast, and if they aren't, well, then what's the point of even having carvings) and solving the problems in your build only using the items you've scavenged(and not some helmet that gives you smth like 25 free block without even being in your backpack). It just seems like I'm being spoon-fed the same mechanic every run, which is the opposite of what makes backpack hero special (aka variety).
@@ha-mz3ou not all characters are for everyone
maybe one that gets released later you might like more
To be honest i love early floors but not for the fights, i like to see how the backpack and the build develops step by step
Thanks for the video!
Did you know the guy who made baba is you worked on a rougelike? It’s called Noita and it’s really fun, highly recommend.
:O i didnt know the person who made baba is you also worked on noita! i love both those games, thats really cool
Tyler your crimson energy was doing nothing pretty much the whole game
Looks much better mechanically. before there was not great incentive to have a lot of carvings but buffing your starting weapon with the size of the discard pile is a nice extra. Also the ghost green bag spaces was so bad.
I think that, if you want to make fights fun, you should either make them different from each other or, like in Alina of the Arena, make making big plays actually feel powerful.
Love your vids Tyler! I’m loving watching this game and peglin!
Have you played slay the spire on the channel? Started it recently and it’s amazing.
I hope they add more fight diversity, but I want them to add town first before adding more charters, enemies and items. Because it makes the charters make more sense and fit into the game, also it will let you have some kind of permanent progress
When I saw the notification I thought it meant carvings like from Inscryption and I was so confused...
HA! My bat flew right over your stoat!
Did... did the title just change!? "The Frog Character Finally Has Some Interesting Weapons! - Backpack Hero" to "Every Carving Scales My POWER LEVEL! - Backpack Hero"
Did I finally catch one?
Plot twist, it's changed again is neither of them
Now its "The Quest For The Next Broken Build - Backpack Hero"
@@tytyereal39 make up your mind Tyler
Tyler's trying to min-max TH-cam views. Trying different titles to see what brings in more views is a normal thing to see now.
@@veralapsa I mean he do got to game the algorithm it's just funny to see the name change over and over lol
Have you ever tried a shiv only run? Use whetstones to boost your damage to crazy and spam shivs
Me: I should really be asleep
Aliensrock:
I wish they would add some more music. Though i only watch videos of the game, the music gets pretty repetitive...
For some reason the carving wheel feels like a YuGiOh deck
Mossy mace looks like a microphone
personally I'm thinking the mouse was solid. different mice with different looks and starting perks and running with that theme should have been a focal point of the game. and creating a frog that is a character that completely redefines the game mechanics is just some how wrong I mean right because it's a frog and different but also some how wrong lol
both characters are female
It's not backpack hero but slay the spire, of course its wrong
@@axolotl_princess She's*
I really like your video, I watch your video every day
Question, did i miss somewhere where he got early access to the game? or is this in the demo or what? Basically how does he have access to the frog?
They had a kickstarter that let you get early access on steam.
@@iTheoryon Thank you, i found that out by doing some searching a lil bit ago but forgot about this reply lol.
Tyler I don't know if you'll see this but give Holocure a try, it's a Vampire Survivors style game that's just released as a demo with 5+6 characters available
It's also completely free
Oh no vtuber cringe
This is nothing like the Totes in the final game
Hi Tyler, Would be neat to see you play AntiChamber! It's a cool, fun puzzl game with gameplay up to approximately 15 hours of playtime.
I personally want all the fights lol
Never using the Dreaming Sword kind of highlights the problem with "buff this weapon" mechanics. You had a better item that you never used because it didn't have buffs.
All it does is lock you into the weapon you're already using since the permanent bonus from left clicking an item once always overshadows any incremental upgrades.
Hey Alien have you played enter the gungeon just been wondering recently
THE GOLD
THE GOOOLD
THE GOOOLD BLOCKS THE ENERGY
NOOOOOOO
he whole video I'm throwing full wine bottles at my computer screen
He never moves the Gold.
Oh well. GG.
Good video, strange sudden cut at 19:02, maybe check over your capture equipment
5 hrs passed and no one pointing out the pointless crimson energy
I know im like a year late but didnt the crimson energy do nothing for like half the run because he put the coins there
Dude, I don't know why though I always say "hi Tyler" every single time you say "Tyler here"
When you put your berserker’s ring into the ONE SPACE that you weren’t allowed to, AND THEN ALSO THE COINS, making the crimson energy useless, my OCD was triggering and it was hard to watch the video.
Yes, been waiting for this
can you do a cursed sword run?
Do some more Dicey Dungeons!
RIGHT CLICK THE ITEMS TYLER
I don't think the red energy was doing anything...
For pretty much the entire time you had the crimson energy you had it disabled, wtf Tyler
you already know they made pot carving banish cause of your other video
Do you have a blocked nose?
Love this game man haven’t seen that there was an update but excited to play it!
you mentioned a greater difficulty, I made a mod for that ;)
Tyler Srock's mouse: 🏓
Day 628 of telling Tyler that he never finished his minecraft series and that he should finish it.
Day 588 of agreeing
The poor man’s version of that, 🙋♂️
Day 313
hell yeah its gay frog time
Frog
Next vid can you play some dicey dungeons pls if you may
You should’ve placed an item over the dice
I love that the developers update this game so much! I just hope they take breaks so they don't burnout...
Oh I'm EARLY early.
