Same, it's exactly what I've been looking for. Plus the upgrade system allows for a surprising amount of variation and the classes add some real flavor, I'd pay $15 and it's only $5.
I mean to be fair the extra 10% on the archer isnt that great because it only increases damage by 5 and theres an extra 30% damage for the main hand that increases by 15. So typically for the archer getting crit% and crit damage seems to be the best for damage and of course taking the +30% whenever possible and I think he got unlucky and only got it once this run but usually you can get it a few times. Then of course some movement speed and I take a few points into health regain early because 1 point into it isn't that great but if you have like 3 or 4 it gives a lot of hp over time and of course the +10% strength on archer still isn't bad but I don't think it's the best option most the time as even attack speed and the + projectiles I think gives more dps.
NL called it a VS clone and I was like "hmm, actually..." and before I could finish the thought this man fuggin snatched my kneecaps. 10/10 NL moment, the dome is as polished as ever
Really trying hard to understand whytf anyone would want to play this over Vampire Survivors or 20 Minutes Till Dawn? In those, leveling u[ is build defining: a brand new ability, or a fundamental change to an existing ability. This is literally just predominately passive stat increases. I'm not shallow enough to be sold on aesthetic alone. What's the appeal? What am I missing?
@@Ragnell123 So far im liking it but take serious issue with the level scaling. several times I was one shotting only to level up and now be 2 shotting. that feels bad man. thats exactly the opposite of how i want to feel on level up. hopefully that can be tweaked
Thank you so much for the content ryan. really been helping get passed a very rough time in my life. I always look forward to seeing you're uploads. also the amount of times i rewatch you're new vagas playthru. Reminds me of better days. Keep it up brudda
RHCP song is "Around the World". Worst song that's still popular: Summer by Calvin Harris. 4th male vocalist who is also most annoying of all time: John Mayer.
My dad has nearly verbatim brought up how annoying going through a drive thru is because of them asking for rewards. His other gripe was that they say, "it's a great day today isnt it?" And he goes, "No! It's not always a great day!" 😂
When he asked for least favorite song I SWEAR I was thinking “I hope he doesn’t say anything Toby Keith” then he hits me with a Courtesy of the Red White & Blue 💀 35:28
45:40 in these games hp perks are generally bad as you want to remove enemies before they get close enough to do dmg in the first place. Your hp doesn't matter if you get surrounded as your dmg is not keeping up. Clear speed is by far the most important upg in these games.
@@SpikeSystem The only def upg that is worth getting is movement speed, other than that clear speed is the only important factor, that being said understanding of which upg gives the most clear speed is not so simple crit chance, crit dmg, base dmg, range, duration or amount of attacks are all values to consider and they are not static values but change their worth depending on other upg. Also clear speed is far far superior as if you struggle to clear there is no point in hanging on longer but go and spend your currency on perma upg and go back. You're wasting your time if you survive without getting the currency. Just cuz you can survive 1m longer doesn't mean it's worth it as you have to clear the screen to get the currency. Efficiency is key.
@@WikiED are you giving advice for these games in general or this one in specific? Because I've played a decent amount and especially before you've unlocked many meta upgrades there are situations where you can't kill your way out of avoiding damage, 2nd fire level is pretty bad with this; one of the mini bosses even puts a ring of fire around you that you need to often times run over. Health Regen is super strong on this game and the shield maiden character scales really well on defense, others so well to get some as well.
@@WikiED its actually insanely simple of a calculation (the way you decide which "upg" gets you best "clear speed") which is why the game type is so popular + sounds like you didn't play this one
@@CrabSpu No it's not simple as worth of crit chance is dependent on crit dmg which is dependent on base dmg which is also tied to attack range (and width etc). All these values change their worth depending on how much you have of each. 1st case: 10 base 100% crit chance 200% crit dmg you do 20 each hit 2nd case: 10 base 50%crit chance 300%crit dmg you do avg of 20 dmg each hit 3rd case: 15 base dmg 50% crit chance 166% crit dmg you do avg of 19.95 (~20) dmg each hit If you take 5 more base in 1st case you get new avg of 30dmg each hit in 2nd case you get new avg of 30dmg each hit in 3rd case you get new avg of ~24.5dmg each hit. If you take 50% more crit dmg in 1st case you get new avg of 25dmg each hit in 2nd case you get new avg of 22.5dmg each hit in 3rd case you get new avg of 23.8dmg each hit Depending on what stats you have at what point the value of each upg changes. Crit chance is the same with exception that it's useless past 100% and coming up with examples is annoying as avg would require more than add and divide 2 numbers. Also Range (width etc) of attacks is also a consideration to speed up clear speed. Those values being different worth is true for all of these games, in fact for all games in general as it's a math problem. At one point 1 stat is better than the others, then it swaps to another and it's constantly changing. I didn't tackle here attack frequencies or number of projectiles etc and those would also make the calculation more and more complex. I've played so many of these that i do admit decided not to spend money on this one but the math remains the same as this is a general math problem not game specific one.
I was just watching some NL videos from 2 years ago and my guy has lost so much weight. It was so gradual overtime, but seeing the contrast from 2 years ago is insane.
Running right into the middle of a crowd of enemies and then picking up the crit chance ring instead of some defense to get out of there boggled the mind.
Just heard about this today and it's already old news lol this genre is getting ground into the dirt HARD. I'm just glad RAID hasn't added a "survivor mode" you unlock with microtransactions. Yet.
didnt know NL to know so much about diablo... butcher, lilith, amazon reference.. will NL play D4???? im sure EggMan will play secretly off stream hahaha 2nd.. orbitz were the shit!! was talking of these a few weeks ago with friends haha
he uses to play alot of more long-story rpgs back in the day and he was pretty geeked out regarding the genre - probably more so than most. He also drops knowledge about magic the gathering all the time.
_What do you think is your least favorite song of all time?_ Idk, man. Friday? _You can't pick Friday_ Frick. I hope you play this long enough to get the sorceress. She's awesome.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers lyric mangling and misnaming was brutal. Also, his inability to recognize that increasing base attack strength will raise crit strength even as he raises crit chance over and over gives me a headache.

Not exactly a new genre, but I get your point.
