Asmon not gathering the materials has frustrated me into buying the game and doing it myself
I got it before that and still frustrates me that is so hard to watch that he skips one of the 2 core things of the game.
@Lee1 Why would he do that on purpose, and why would he care? Sure, they could've paid him beforehand, but that wouldn't explain why Asmon would care if they sold more copies after these videos.
Oh man. Glad to see him play the game again that CHANGED HIS LIFE!
i was going to say im surprised it didnt change his life again lol
Lmao. This one is so much more simple than vampire survivor and many others.
He never goes for mining speed, movement, nor pickup radius. Being able to mine faster is a life changer. Helps you be able to afford more in the shops.
But also mining faster allows you to control the map more too. Can make kill zones/corridors.
And if you mine fast enough, you can outrun hordes through walls
You don't really need those upgrades to win. it depends on the situation. In most cases, at least for driller, you can get away with just being strategic about mining and killing stuff.
This here is Asmongold's guide on how not to mine any resources and make some of the worst decisions possible, but still somehow win. A true legend
It's because this is a game made for streamers to sell to their audiences.
Don't you get it lmao? Yes, it IS easy. Yes, you CAN win with basically any playstyle and any build. That's the point.
Everyone will go wow asmon is having so much fun and winning but ***I KNOW I CAN DO BETTER SO IM GONNA BUY IT***
it's almost like games don't have 1 meta, and you can play them with your own playstyle and have fun
nah more that games have gotten easier and easier to the point where it doesnt matter what you build or do@@carson8013
Or, it's almost like Asmon is actually just terrible at video games in general, with the exception of WoW and MMO's... He is either the greatest troll to ever live, or one of the slowest people to pick up how normal game mechanics work.
36:10 No way! If only he "Mined Moar" His streamer luck would make him unstoppable
Edit. Seriously. He's shooting himself in the foot by not mining. He is focusing on killing the enemies instead of evading them and farming resources. That makes the boss bar go up quicker and he ends the levels prematurely. He's basically doing main story quest with no side quests and wonders why he dies as a lvl 5 in a lvl 15 area.
@@whynotsa6866 Exactly! You will never kill all the mobs. The mass will keep getting bigger and bigger. You just gotta evade and mine. Trying to clear the mobs like vampire survivors is not the play.
Also he is hopping in the drop pod way too early. If this was normal DRG, I'd say do it, but this is the top down survivors game. EVERY. SECOND. COUNTS. He normally has like 10 seconds left. Take your time, grab the materials on the way to the drop pod. I promise you, the only way to know how greedy is too greedy is missing the drop pod. You will never miss it again once you miss it the first time. Only then can you learn your limits.
Y'all don't watch this man play games at all do you? 🤣
It's an act.
Even tho he mentioned that sometimes misses a lot of stuff by focusing on one single thing.
@@96Logan Man was playing halo reach trying to survive the lone wolf mission except all he had to do was break some rocks kill a couple elite units and leave 🥲 but he is like nah gotta kill the bugs
Loot bugs just chilling, living life. Not a worry in the world.
@@alcowe good, that how you marketing a game by making your viewer think they can do better than you and buy the game instead,
* Asmon is killing everything *
* one lava hit him *
Asmot: well i'm fucked, I'm fucked, this is my last level guys
Loses 25% health*
Asmond: "IM FUXING DONE, IM DEAD ALREADY, THIS IS THE END"
Investing everything in the turrets and not putting down any turrets was hilarious lol
@@RageForSeven You stand still to put it down just had a game with all turrets and it was absolutely shredding everything while I mine for ores 😂
The mobile turrets are absolutely broken. Melted a dreadnaught in like 10 seconds on haz 1. The overclock that gives like +150% fire speed in exchange for accuracy is hilarious.
It literally doesn't matter if you stop to put them down, they come out on their own when the charges are full anyway
Haz 1 has been nerfed recently, so it's also likely why it dies so quickly. if you made it to the dreadnaught with no issues while getting damage upgrades, it will literally melt in seconds.@@orangejuice3235
To be fair to "gunner", he did say that a kiting play style would probably be best and he ignored the majority of movement speed and mining upgrades..
My favorite is him panicing with full health.
to be fair once cornered you go from 100% to 0 in like 2 seconds
it is 100% frustrating with it literally flashing on his screen "STOP MOVING TO DEPLOY TURRETS" and he wont do it, then bitches about having no turrets.
Almost like he's doing it on purpose? It still blows my mind how many people get upset when it's obvious he's farming this reaction because it's funny/entertaining
@@drankydrank1 Have y'all ever streamed before? It's impossible to be fully engaged with the game you're playing AND listenting to/entertaining the audience, so you split your focus. Some things just slip your attention when you play a new game. He eventually realized at 1:16:00 . He's not doing it on purpose... he has mini rage fits when he loses, so he definitely would rather be winning then trolling the audience.
love to watch you play a survival mining game but never mine lol. then complain about not getting enough upgrades. truly amazing asmon.
i wouldnt even know this game existed without asmon played it randomly, bought it for myself and each of my siblings (4total) as gifts, 9/10 game, lot of fun, doesnt get bored even after 10th run.
OMG the face he made when he realized he can place turrets while standing still...priceless LMAO!!! 1:13:14 starts from there for anyone curious :) lol
LOOOL where does it happen he hasnt learnt yet and is so frustrating aha
Asmon's survivor game persona is my favorite haha. What an entertaining thing to behold.
This engineer run where he constantly has 2 turrets ready to drop IF ONLY HE STOPPED MOVING was PAINFUL to watch.
@@fabriciotarazona9344 the entire time he was running around with 2 stored turrets on his "hotbar" under the turret icon, if he stopped still for a second they would deploy, increasing his firerate as he would've then had 3+ turrets shooting at the horde instead of just one, slowing down the bugs as more are being killed
With u accumulate turret upgrades and overclocks (the super special upgrades every 6 levels), the turrets become absolute menaces
2:08:40 quote after a lvl up:"...I dont know if fire is worth it..." and 10 sec later he says:"... I like that flame thrower..."
2:15:45 My perspective is Scout's best attribute is the fact that he's able to move around and dodge the enemies while he mines for the resources. Gunner strength is that he will kill all the enemies and get multitude of level ups despite being weak at mining. Driller takes it the opposite direction and is really good at mining, but he struggles to level up and get more of his weapons. Engineer's strength lies with putting down a miniature fortress of deployables so he can focus on mining. All in all, the only one that's really technically bad at mining is the Gunner, So if you're going Gunner and you need to mine your best bet is to focus on buffing your additional weapons that ideally target the closest enemy or the strongest enemy and Hoover up any mining speed bonus you see until you feel like you can swim through the rock and minerals pretty decent.
This game is pretty good, it's up there in quality within the genre. There are some issues... some weapons are just trash no matter how many levels you put into them, and if you don't upgrade specific weapons (the same OP weapons each run, no matter the character), you will get rolled by the mobs before you can invest into things like +mining speed. This ends up feeling like you're doing the same thing for half of every run regardless of the context (map, character, etc.).
Its still early, I'd be skeptical of other developers and the early access craze, but I'm sure these guys will address that kind of stuff! About to download it and give it a go. Will keep this in mind when playing.
The main issue at the moment is that once you unlock Driller there's no point using any other class because Driller farms meta upgrades way faster.
@@atp_3249 These are not the same devs as the original DRG, it is a different company.
In the current state I don't think this is worth it
@@atp_3249 This is a completely standalone game. It is being made by a completely different Dev studio. Literally the only part that is the same is the IP itself.
Makes me want to see him play the ACTUAL Deep rock galactic
Right? It's kind of sad seeing him fangirl over this version. Original is way better for sure. Looking forward to the new roguelike they working on tho... I think it's called Rogue Core. That also looks to be way better than this one.
I actually think that survivor is a hook to make people interested in the main Game. They are smart guys lol
@@mikedoe525it's working on me, just bought survivor and added the original to my wish list lol
@@mikedoe525 Nah, they've made it because it's way easier to make than their other games, they pumped out this game as soon as the first in the genre started being so massively popular.
I played the demo so much I had to buy it and have more hrs on this than BG3 this week lol
I play DRG a few times a month, and I'm up to 400 hours since I started playing. I had no idea they were even doing a survivor game. I'm currently slamming through unlocks and loving life.
He should play deep rock galactic
Mining is key because you get experience to level up but also more cash to spend at the shop providing you with more opportunities for cards, making it 2x more efficient than just picking up the shiny xp
I like how he never goes for the usable resources like gold and nitra that would actually make him strong and skips the upgrades like luck that would give him better options.
seeing him skip a luck upgrade over +10 max hp drove me insane haha
It took him 3 hours to realize the red stuff is healing, 4 hours to realize about the turets and 5 hours to figure out that the slugs can be mined. Long time... edit: he did not realize that is useless to mine xp after the final boss is dead.
It is okay man , btw there is wiki icon at the top right of the main menu screen , it helps a lot and so simplified cuz the game doesn’t tell you about most of the basics
I lmfao Everytime it goes from 0% win chance "I am FLICKED" to 100% win chance "Nah , I going to be able to do it " .. within a nanosecond 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tip that any class can use: Bait boom bugs into exploding and then run away. The moment you seem them starting to shiver, they'll explode half a second later.
sadly he never came back to get all Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe endings :(
How many times can you take damage mining and still constantly overlook mining speed..
He did say at one point. The more you tell him to do something, he is only going to do the opposite. He knows what he is doing, well what he is not doing I guess would be the better way to put it.
Always choose “xp gain” it’s like wish for more wishes.
"There's like a core functionality of this game that I'm just like not getting" - Yes , running form experience and sometimes cornering yourself :)
Asmon flipflops from "Its Joever" to "We're so back!" faster then a windmill in a windstorm
I bought this game because of your gameplay. It seems very enjoyable! Thanks for featuring this man.
Bro, i had like 7 turrets all with Plasma (bounces off objects) and wall breaking, it literally destroyed everything and i had like 4.6m plasma damage. also shotgun (warthog) works well with him, when you overclock shotgun you can get plasma too, and just level up all plasma damage.
also always prioritize getting Nitra (red rocks) over gold. and stop wasting time mining red sugar when you're full health.
good luck bro
"Mining? I don't know if that's good."
100% allergic to all damage upgrades
@@SkeleTonHammer "hey miner" make sure you run around non-stop and everytime your stand still you don't mine miner
Whoevers message got through about the turret charge bar, THANK YOU.
I think He should play the normal DRG aswell
crazy he hated on the driller so bad, hes the only class i want to play anymore
Another Petition for Asmon to actually play Deep Rock Galactic!
I think that would even give him bigger numbers than his MHW series. But I bet he would play DRG only if they give us one more big update (which might take awhile, maybe next season)
Keep posting this game please I love watching you play it
Man really needs to stop tempting fate and being hesitant to dig out.
You should kill the loot bugs they drop both of the currencies that you never have enough of.
I love the deep rock galactic franchise, and I’m so glad they’re reviving the series with this absolute banger!
It doesn't even kill the little ones, he says, as he NEVER upgrades damage lol
How is he 3 hours into the game and still doesn't realize that he's mining red sugar when he doesn't need hp.
Because he's not really smart in any game aside for Wow. He's a one trick pony that is a fish out of water the moment he plays anything that is not an MMO
Engineer hands down is the best class on horde control, you just have to think forward on making choke points for your swarm ambush/escape.
I have it on my wishlist. Looking forward to playing it, just in between Palworld right now
Duality of Asmon whole stream: "Im dead, Im dead, Its over". When crisis is overted:"It easiest game of my life". Rinse and repeat XDDDD
My life has been shitty lately. I might get this game so i can change it
The thing is he is actually playing some really good games and making me notice games I would have definitely overlooked
Asmongold cannot seem to adapt to different class styles as I was watching him play this game he's basically been playing as a scout Even on the other classes.
Drillers are supposed to drill tunnels and leave flame throwers behind them and always stay in the Mining tunnels.
Engineers supposed to set up minions/traps around the Mining area and stay in a sort of kind of Simi-permanent spot until they get done with the mining and then move to another spot. Not move around the map all over the place.
PS: That's why when he got the wheels on the turrets he was doing so much better because he was playing it as a scout not as an engineer.
I think the teslas would be op if used correctly. You have to funnel the enemies through them instead of around them. They melt the basic bugs and once the reload is increased enough, you can place 4 or 5 in concession that the bugs have to swarm through. It takes a bit of strategy. Mine a pathway through the rock and funnel them through the teslas while placing turrets. When you think about it, this is kinda like COD zombies in a way. You have to train them through traps and into narrow areas to melt them for a few seconds then make the round again.
Succession. Concession is something that is given-up or given away, usually reticently or unwillingly.

New AAAAA game that asmongold like? Imagine all future games will be like that, lets influence more stuff like that, good work streamer
You mean games what are actually fun? It's fine for me. I would play 100x games like this than starfield, forspoken, immortals of aveum or diablo 4.
@@merlinwarage He criticizes everything. He himself may also be the object of criticism.
He has authority and strange tastes. For example, he considers Zelda BotW to be garbage.
There are plenty of strategy or really challenging games that are damn fun.
But with his authority, he creates an influence on game developers in the direction of simplifying gameplay and his strange taste.
Imagine every rpg game will have only one class - Great Sword. Also one one button - Great Badass Punch e.t.d.
My criticism seems justified.
writing off characters before you even unlocked the overclocked weapons is pretty wild. You need to treat your first couple runs with each character as fail guarantees where you just rush each weapon to 12 and farm perma upgrade resources. Which you have been ignoring on the map like 80% of the time, this is why you struggle with harder difficulties.
Deep Rock Galactic!
On the topic of these reverse bullet hell style games, it would be worth a play session for you to check back into Halls of Torment. They had a large content drop today (new level, two new classes, new abilities). Good stuff. You are the one who originally turned me onto that game.
man I’m so addicted to this lol I think my raid leader hates me for playing it more then SOD
Lmao “why would I want more mining speed?”
I dunno. 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
ROCK AND STONE!!!!
1:14:40 moments like this I got to wonder if he's actually acting or not when he finds out a mechanic that he's just been ignoring. 1:16:00 case in point.
Zach missing that you have to stand still to get the turrets out while proceeding to move constantly was a tough watch
I’m so glad I watched this video that changed my life in 24 hours and gave me a lottery ticket that was worth 10 BILLION Dollars!! (No cap) (on a stack) (real) (this comment will get removed in 1 hour!! So like this comment quick!!)
40:51 well, he's not getting the 4 kinetics this run now if there was any doubt when he changed his gun to electric. 😆
My first run with the borer was really interesting. I didn't really get any weapon upgrades, but I was zooming across the map, through walls, even through monkite. By the end of the run I had over 200% mining speed and pickup radius, with a good amount of armor, hp and extra xp to the point that I could just run through a group of explody boys without a care in the world. Which I actually had to do several times because my damage was too low
I hope he comes back and continues to play. It's really fun watching him play it.
I hope they'll add co-op in the full release.
Do you play with mouse and keyboard or with controller?
The trick is to hatch the boss before the waves start intensifying which happens at the end of the stage timer
Also never pick the paint job upgrades unless you’re going for a milestone. Your weapon has a level cap and you want to select real upgrades instead
The shotgun does INSANE damage (and never stops firing) and clears the way for you when you’re moving. Asmon spent 90% of the time facing the wall when he had the shotgun lol
This was like watching the opening of Scary Movie. Chooses banana instead of knife, sprints down path marked "danger" and ignores safety, etc...
" I'm dead. I'm fucking dead. Ohh I'm dead."
Meanwhile there aren't even creatures damaging him or near him & he has forced himself into a corner doing nothing...like taking 2 seconds to dig away....
Holy fuck
This game changed my life. I'm so glad I played this game.
I have realised now why Asmon is such a big succes on the internets. He is funny. Because he plays sooooo bad. He attracts with his funny side and his faces.
Man literally uses fire agenst bugs that live in the fire area and says his character sucks
He's so nasty with the pod drop kills! Really stepped up my game after watching! great video!
Love watching you play rouge like games like this. I appreciate you for uploading on TH-cam as I don't use twitch.
Just fyi, you need to get atleast 1 or 2 of the pickup radius upgrades, that'll help you gather the exp that you're missing. Also don't be afraid to walk through the burning areas, their damage is less than what you'll take from getting hit by the bugs...and one final thing...dig to avoid the bugs LOL So many times you could have just dug around the bugs to avoid the large groups and funnel them into killing hallways.
Fun fact about the classes:
Scout: Balanced, well rounded
Gunner: Excellent at killing everything in front of him.
Engineer: Excellent at killing everything behind him.
Haven't played the driller. Not for me.
He says driller sucks, but died twice with engineer before making it to last boss.
After watching your playthrough bout 1/2 way this time round, I decided to just stay in the first biome and farm levels for the weapons and classes for about 10 hours while farming the upgrade crystals.
Now my weapons for Engineer are KICK ASS but still have a hard time in the third biome
"Easiest fucking game of my life!" Proceeds to die twice in a row. "Okay that's big!" "Ohh no I'm fucking dead!" "We are alright." "That's it I'm fucking dead!" Hehe. Love you Asmon
This game in a strange way feels like it has way more depth than all those other clones, just with the way you unlock different characters and have to max out weapons to unlock the upgradable version. That being said I wish there was a way to go further beyond 5 floors, most of the time my build feels like it's just coming online
This definetely isn't like other survivors games where you just get to a point where your dmg is so crazy you can basically afk. The game wants you to do higher hazard lvl missions and be on the edge of your seat a lot more. Some people like the laid back games like vampire survivors which are pretty 1 dimensional and you can just vibe but personally I love how this game shakes up the genre a bit. The extra proactive decision making makes this game so unique. But it would be cool if they added an "endless" mode on haz1 for people who prefer the other style of playing where you are just grinding out those end game screen charts with crazy numbers and long runs.
How much is this game and is it available on Xbox One?
Played a game as engineer before this and I got the overdrive mod for the turrets that makes them mobile. Which is insane, turns them into turret tanks that follow you. Also, the electric smg is by far the best second weapon to pick. The lock 1 is horrible, high dps but it's too random and gives you no way to melt enemies in front of you which the electric smg does. That said I can't seem to get as far with the engineer as with the gunner. If you invest in the mini gun and get it to max overdrive it's wild.
Asmon: man this dude is counter intuitive I have to point at enemies but mining makes me do the oppposite.
*unlocks driller*
Asmon:IDK about the ass gun guys.
42:52 we need a compilation of this murloc moments 😂😂😂
Driller is so broken because you can outrun/outmine the bugs movement speed. That means nothing can catch you as long as you don't get surrounded.
Play the class with more mining speed and movement speed.
building one good gun like the rifle, then go for move speed and mine speed is wild in this game, then go for random gold drop from mining.
Two seconds into every run
“I’m gone die.”
“Easiest game of my life!”
😂
I loved watching him run around ignoring every ore he saw, bro is not a miner
Asmons life is changed every week! I need to buy these games!! Love the added commentary to build tension that isn't there: "this is so bad". Everything is fine. "omg it's over". Not close to dying. LOL. Asmon is an entertainer I guess.
luck is better drops FOREVER it stacks and you become a total badass in late game
"this weapon isn't that good" the electric fence is literally melting them you just need more electric dmg
The game is awesome but your used to just sit while abilities kill everything. This game makes you mine and kite if you want to be powerful to kill all mobs fast. It's such a refresh to this genre, I hope they improve it
When I play gunner I just ignore the digging and gathering and only focus on combat and leveling. Much more fun that way but I usually just play scout if there isn't a class specific objective
Asmon is really the best advertisement for these types of games. The way he plays, the decisions he makes, it makes you shake your head to where you want to pick up the game yourself so you can do it better.
Hes admitted in some streams that he intentionally does this to get people to play, he's pretty cool at acting the fool.
Yeah i agree lol. I used to think he was bad at games but i think its just that when players stream and talk as well, they ignore instructions and have tunnel vision 😂
@@Philpot1992 Lord Asmonbald playing games 24/7 there's no way he is bad at video games
@wildanandika I know but if you don't know him and see how badly he plays on stream, you may not know that.
