Romantik can mean multiple things. I think the game devs took it from the wording of "Dorf Romantik" which explains like "beauty and cozyness of a small village"
Hi there, i as a native german speaker i would translate it as charm in this case. As mentioned already it can mean alot of things. From the mundane to a whole art epoch but in this case i would think charm would be approbriate as usually when u use it like this you mean a stylized sometimes even slightly overdone version of what the thing actually means or looked like. Like when u say a place has rustic charm in english can sometimes even be interpreted as a slight

it was clearly the way to go when he had the tractor beam pulling everything most of way. He could instead, focus on going deeper down and defending his base
@@aguyontheinternet8436 The tractor beam isn't the be all end all solution to transport pal. He must've spent at least half his time doing lateral trips because he could only pull 4 items at a time when he had a stack of like 30 items in a pile at the far end of a corridor miles away from the beam. In fact, personally, I feel the tractor beam to be useless, especially with the new teleporter upgrade in the latest update of the demo
I usually upgrade it once. 1-2 trips if I find a lot of ore and I can use that 8 iron for something else. In my latest (and only) successful run I spent way too much on special upgrade upgrades (because I had a water condenser) and barely lived after I forgot to repair my dome. In EVERY other run i rarely got any cobalt to repair, and I learned to not get hardening. At all. Cobalt is valuable.
Yea, as much as I love watching Matt play games, it is so painful how bad he is at most games :') Maybe that is exactly why I watch him, I like the pain! Makes me feel alive! Thanks Matt, for sucking!
"Romantik" actually can mean a few things. It can be used as the direct literal translation, wich would be romance, it can be used to describe a certain style of creating art (or maybe a certain time period for the arts of writing/painting, not entirely sure), and with "Dorf" added it is pretty much like you described, a word to describe an idealized/romanticized version of village life. Theres probably also a couple other possible meanings that I forgot about.
@@fajdek7032 the END RESULT is the same. Let's assume max HP 100 - you have 40/100 HP - Repair +20% = 60/100 HP (60% full) - buy HP increase, now max HP is 200 - you now have 120/200 HP (60% full) If you buy HP increase first: - from 40/100 to 80/200 (both 40% full) - Repair +20% = 80+40/200 - you now have 120/200 HP (60% full)
@Evi1 M4chine Well, I think he accidentally added "are" into the sentence. It happens all the time when you're typing something while thinking what to type, which usually results in hilarious mistakes.
I have found that lift and teleport are essential for late game. If you don’t have both you are going to be spending most of your time flying down and up
I mean this as a compliment: you arent just "lucky" to strike the algorithm like this, you did what works and you did it good. you have the "civil engineer" gimmick on games implying youll break the game and instantly THAT became youre thing youll be known as the engy who outthinks the games even tho every gamer has some kind of heart for this stuff. im into it for sure bro
I can't believe you have a million subscribers already! I've been watching you since June, when you released your third video--your first poly bridge video--and I've been here for every milestone. I guess I just want to congratulate you for such an achievement! Much love ❤
Just finished the game!!! Lots of love to the Devs, it was a really cool game. Just sat down an grinded for 3 hours straight. I really look forward to the rest of the game!!!
Hi, German person Here. Romantik in German has multiple meanings including, but Not Limited to: romance, a Genre of litirature and theatrics, a historic time Periode(end 17 hundrets i think . As far as i am aware, one would Not ise it to comunicate that Something is sweet or cute, but maybe i am wrong. Great video thought
0:18 Yes it is German, but to my knowlesge and I am from Germany, Romantik usually means something similar to love. It could also be relatet to writing.
Watching Matt completely ignore the enemy approaching meter EVERY SINGLE TIME gives me tons of anxiety. He might as well not even have it displayed on the screen if he doesn't react until they're already banging on the dome. lol
One thing about this game, if you get an upgrade, you get the very basic part of the upgrade. Such as, with the shield, you could have upgraded the strength, and the recharge rate and basically gotten several extra seconds of safety when you couldn't make it up, and the prospector, which shows you hot or cold on iron, but could also be upgraded for the other resources, and given you a small compass that pointed towards the direction it was finding it. You also skipped the AI control on the stun laser, which would have let it automatically start attacking on the waves even if you weren't in the seat. You never even looked at the upgrades for the orchard and bomb. Also, on the upgrades, any final upgrade that is in a box with other upgrades means you can only pick one or the other, the exception being the shield, which only lets you choose melee damage reflection, or airborne projectile reflection, and locks the other one out once you choose one.
The amount of updates this game has been receiving, on the demo, has been insane! compared to this video and the current beta you can tell clearly just by the art
Now that you've beaten it, and since you love to do modded plays(!)... You can modify the Gamedata and Upgrades files, to have a little bit of fun. ^_^ See how many of each resource you get on average, how big the map is. Experience all the special artifacts, because you can't get all of them in a single run. (as always, save backup copies, so you can revert to default later)
Matt is such an architect, thinking that he can just keep mining and the monsters aren't about to crush him. Also the game is clearly much easier than it was for the first streamers who tried it.
the elevator is very op, i think focusing upgrades on it can let you forgo strength and even movement speed upgrades since one upgrade makes you move faster up
@@CyanAnn I know this already :) Saw it in English, but mainly because it is a german loanword and I am german myself. It is even less understandable that I did not know "forego" as just last year I searched for english verbs starting with for(e). I did this because many of them are pretty similar to german ones: Forbid - Verboten Forget - Vergessen Forsake - Versagen Forlorn - Verloren
The game is fun, although I was really disappointed after I beat the demo on my first try, usually that's not the experience with rogue likes. But I hope the devs keep working on it, it's really promising
They/He is. Check out his own channel Bippinbits, he has atleast two livestreams playing and discussing the game. Also he replies to you on the steam community :)
you can only have two main upgrades. but one of the upgrades is a poison sprayer that makes the waves take longer to happen. and then there is a teleporter where you can teleport to the bottom and then when upgraded teleport back up (without materials)
The horrible fate being trapped within the dome with the "Romantik" in the title first make me think of the movie "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb".
Would love to see another episode of this! (I've been an absolute architect and lurking since you started playing mini metro. Today I decided to sub in case this series gets an update)
Romantik in german also mean the basically same thing but at one point it was kinda switchable with beautyful or cute therefore we have a habit of for example if a village looks pretty, the people are nice and you have a sense of community, you'd say it's a romantic little village
I think I've watched 3 people play this game and all 3 have ignored the double laser..... Was like the first thing i bought, double laser, double damage out put seemed like a sure win, the fact that it sits opposite on the dome from each other means you are fighting with both sides at the same time.
you should play spore. it's a game where you evolve a creature trough all the stage of evolution and there's even a building creation phase. when i played it, it tooked me one hour per phase soo you can take it relax. if you want to play it tell me and i'll give you some starter tips (i got to the final stage before i had to delete the game soo i can easily help).
Double lasers are the most weirdest and usless upgrades that you can buy. 1 laser is on the left and 1 is on the right, there not aoutmartic like the stun laser, so you have to controll them, but there not seprate controlls so really when you're firing at a enemy the other laser is just firing at a random spot. The only real bonus they provide is that you don't have to go back and forth defending both sides. but with the speed impromvment you really don't need this upgarde.
Romantik is indeed German and has the same language roots as romance. It also means approximately the same thing (though I would agree that DomeRomantik is just a play on DorfRomantik)
I love this game! After your last video I downloaded immediately :) I played several rounds, can’t get past the double boss attack, but it’s soooo fun :)
This game just got a huge update, check out my latest video on it here: th-cam.com/video/WtvckDoyJKk/w-d-xo.html
ok
This thumbnail now makes more sense!
The game has upgraded to Dome Keep!
The graphics are incredible, BUT-- you don't get to keep an upgrade anymore... that sucks...
Romantik can mean multiple things.
I think the game devs took it from the wording of "Dorf Romantik" which explains like "beauty and cozyness of a small village"
Exactly, cause Romantik just means romantic...

I would rather translate it as romance in this case. Romantic describes the person, in German Romantiker, or the adjective romantisch.
The coziness of a small mining dome.

Same Here but it was fun😊😊
I love how he is even confused by how and why moving resources is so slow xD , sometimes his brain goes full architect mode .
Or move speed, for like 80x of the game.
With carry strength and lift speed the video will be much shorter thankfully all waves near the end were cut short. It was a pain during the middle
The extra upgrades after you're maxed out just give you a bunch of extra iron. It's still worth grabbing
Not sure what upgrades you're referring to

If repair works as percentage of HP then using it before buying HP upgrade was absolute architect move
If it's percentage based it doesn't matter. +x% before or after increasing your max HP will leave you to the same %
