  • "Didn't this come out four years ago?" Hey, it's new to me. And besides, a good game is good forever. This roguelike third person shooter is still every bit the indie gem it was when it first released, and still well worth looking at in 2024.

    Whelp... it seems the newest DLC update has broken the game for a lot of people. Please note, this review was made before that happened. 😡
    Hopefully they get the game straightened out soon.

    A big misconception: time doesn't matter as long as you're looting, while gaining items you get stronger then your enemies do in the same amnt of time, this applies to all difficulties, from drizzle to eclipse 8

      this is like very very wrong, being slow is a death sentence as it leads to you taking longer to kill enemies and then you end up taking longer each stage and then you take even longer next stage due to that and you will eventually just do no dmg and get one shot on higher difficulties. Tho it is right that looting the entire stage is the goal usually but with minimal time loss

    Great video man!! Love seeing more people get into Risk of rain 2 it's such a gem
    also the fuel array is a equipment slot item with no abilities of it's own, however it is intended for unlocking another character! the way the item works is whenever you are holding it if your health drops to 50% it'll detonate on the spot!! I wouldn't worry about going for the character though until you feel comfortable goin for the challenge!!!

    You can also change things up by unlocking artifacts which gives you a unique condition by toggling them at the start of your run. They can be really fun and makes the game super interesting!

    I thought you were some huge reviewing channel given the quality of the video, and yet you weren't (yet). Also I believe (but could be mistaken because of dementia) that this game was playable a while before it's release date, it just feels like it's been ages more than 4 years ago. I also love the innocence of some tips you give, mainly the time, don't stress it!

On a random day, I was at 5 below. They were selling ROR 1 & 2 for only $5, of course. I love telling people about how I got into ROR

      A fair criticism. For the record, I kept playing after I made this vid, and have actually completed the game now. I don't think I'd change anything, I would only add that the Captain (and Artificer, who I've also unlocked) are pretty fun to play as. 😎
