It's like living through the Risk of Rain > Risk of Rain 2 cycle all over again with this magnificent IP. SO EXCITED FOR THIS! January can't come any sooner!
Don't worry, I'm sure the single-player experience will deliver. It's still an open-world action adventure like the previous game, and the multiplayer is entirely optional
No it doesn't. It looked fine then. It looks fine now, and It looked fine in the video before that. Stop with this nutcase narrative. It makes no sense.
@@thisnameistaken maybe it's evolved in a way where they now know more about the details as to how it works? no need to be an asshole, does it hurt you?
@@cntom8233 What are you talking about? You should probably go look up the word evolve in a dictionary, and then after you leave to do that, don't come back.
let be real... i don't explore in the first game for upgrade my character i explore to seeing and expand more of the world that so limit but seem so big and beautiful. i doubt that procedural generated world can make that feel happen Edit: but see in good way it might be good if they can put the element of exploration and story telling terrain like first game focus into one place(the hub part)
when i added this to my wishlist over 2 and half years ago i had no idea what it was. was not expecting it to become this. looks cool and i hope it goes well. maybe i could get my friends on board
I like these kinds of game but I hope it's not just balance for co-op. And it need to be steam deck compatible cause it looks like a great game to pick up and make some progress while on the bus or in a waiting room!
Disasterpiece was a huge part of helping set the atmosphere and tone of HLD. I don't think many other artists would have been able to do what he did with that OST. I was hoping he'd come back for this too but I guess they wanted to go in a different direction
I'll buy it just becusse i like the franchise. Hyper light drifter is one is my favorite games. I am still worried about the static look of some of the animations, and the lack of impact with the melee combat. Hopefully, that gets refined more during the EA period 🙏
I am a fan of the first game, played it multiple times, watched videos on lore and the deeper meaning behind the story. First game was a labor of love and a work of art and will forever have a special place in my heart. This game doesnt look like what fans expected or wanted... I will try it for myself, it might be good it might even be pretty fun but I do feel disappointed.
i am not super optimistic just bc the gameplay shown still looks quite clunky and unpolished. i do, however, really want this to be good and will give it a hopeful shot, when EA releases.
@@proxywolfx Eh no. There's also the gameplay and how it looks. You telling me this doesn't look remotely like Fortnite? This feels like its been designed by industry trends. Steam is full of games like this..
@BsERoss no dude,only thing to compare are the gliders but botw had them aswell....this is more akin to ror2 if anything dude....the perspective isn't even like fortnites perspective which they didn't create mind you, and also games like this have existed prior to fortnite when it comes to the 3rd person, the perspective isn't a trend it's been around, and it's artstyle isn't fortnites
@@BsERoss and the gameplay isn't remotely fortnite it's a roguelike, the only thing you can really say in much of fortnite is aiming and shooting but fortnite didn't invent that
Around 3 years in the making, I wish they've worked on a Ocarina of Time-like, carefully crafted world and story - rather than ANOTHER rougelite multiplayer type game with thousand different worlds, but none with any kind of soul. Huge bummer to see it take that direction... I wish the devs a successful launch anyway and hope people will enjoy it :)
One thing I don't like : hoverboard and kite... It lacks personality when the rest of the soft has a lot of it. These two are overdone, find something else.
I like how all the pixel art elements are present in the 3d game.
The visual effects for shots, attacks and items
very interesting
So excited to see this new take on the IP. I loved Hyper Light Drifter so I'm incredibly excited for this!
@@BlackC13 I also loved Drifter & was immediately addicted to the dash chain mechanic! Hoping this is great as well!
Is it good? Art syle is putting me off too much. characters look like tumblr Furries, catering to weridos.
NGL, I was expecting this to be the story after, not before
@@LeoZhao01 same, i was a lil shocked
I really hope they got disasterpeace to do the music again!
Instant buy from me!
@@Sucas_Lounge they didn't
I wish the sequel was in 2D pixel art
Or kept the same exploration gameplay. Sigh. Ill keep an eye on it but see how this play out.
well, the sequel doesn't exist yet. this is a prequel spinoff
It's like living through the Risk of Rain > Risk of Rain 2 cycle all over again with this magnificent IP. SO EXCITED FOR THIS! January can't come any sooner!
Although I hope this succeeds, it doesn’t look like it’s my type of game anymore sadly…
Don't worry, I'm sure the single-player experience will deliver. It's still an open-world action adventure like the previous game, and the multiplayer is entirely optional
What were you hoping for? More style of the og or..
@@neon_horizon4097Just more of a single player experience- No co-op, no randomized worlds… not so stat heavy, stuff like that.
not mine either
@zwick6890 how is adding features a bad thing, especially with the new Parry system and gliders!?
One of the best things about hyperlite drifter was the unique OST I Hope that the music for this game is a little bit like the original.
I wonder how the procedural terrain will fit into the story of Hyper Light.
This is giving me the vibe of a modern Phantom Dust from the original xbox, which I'm all for. Phantom Dust was good back when.
YOOOOO Another person who remembers phantom dust!
i had a feeling
"running in and button mashing wont get you very far"
Thank you
Looks so good! Combat looks so evolved from the last trailer
No it doesn't. It looked fine then. It looks fine now, and It looked fine in the video before that. Stop with this nutcase narrative. It makes no sense.

I didn't realise this game was CO-OP! 2025 is going to be a banger year!
Looks like Risk of rain on crack
@@Teiosapien please elaborate
@bionictryhard2272 you know they literally can't. That guy has never had on original thought or opinion in their life.
let be real... i don't explore in the first game for upgrade my character i explore to seeing and expand more of the world that so limit but seem so big and beautiful.

You can easily still tell a story with procedural generation. It's just a tool. You can use it to build whatever you want.
All we want is Hyper Light Drifter 2
damn, was really hoping for a single player experience. really loved the first game & the EVA references throughout.
Daamn this looks amazing - hope console guys will also be able to play it at some point.
Oh im so excited. Been on my wishlist for a while!
I hope we can eventually find the Drifter from Hyper Light Drifter.
Or what's left of him, anyway...
I love the hooded red panda/racoon/cat visual design. And I think I would love his close combat ninja style skills.
"Dro, the FEMALE wolfen warrior-"
Oh, you should not have said that
It will always be Solar Ash Kingdom to Us, themes and all that. Magician skin or we riot.
Looks like a perfect Steam Deck game.
when i added this to my wishlist over 2 and half years ago i had no idea what it was. was not expecting it to become this. looks cool and i hope it goes well. maybe i could get my friends on board
So it’s dauntless meets paladins, that’s the vibe I’m getting gameplay wise.
I like these kinds of game but I hope it's not just balance for co-op. And it need to be steam deck compatible cause it looks like a great game to pick up and make some progress while on the bus or in a waiting room!
Heavy Biomutant vibes
Hordes of enemys sees 3 guys xd
Excited for the game, but do I wait till it's fully released and polished? or is this a live service kinda game?
Looks neat! I do wish the music was more emblematic of HLD… disasterpeace is missed 😢

too soon to go 3D, they should have made Hyper Light Drifter 2 in the form as the original
This looks just like Dauntless 👍
Elden ring announcing a roguelike suddenly, oh man they are SCREWED

Yes! Exactly. I feel the same way
on jan 14th?! what a perfect bday present 🤪
Will this be on Xbox or PS5?
It's on Steam, maybe i'll come to the consoles at some point.
Reminds me of rust of rain but updated
looks okay but i just want another Hyperlight isometric game I might try this though
SWEETBABY INC AFFILIATED!!!!!!!
Looks awesome 🔥🔥🔥
Risk of rain 2 gameplay ?
Sees 3rd person shooter with cartoony graphics, must be Ror2
These are not similar at ALL lmao
Looks kinda like dauntless, hopefully this game will do better
Where the pixels go
Wildstar 2? Does it look a lot like it? I hope it's an amazing game and is very successful, good luck to everyone involved.
If the weapons and skills are diverse I think I’ll love playing it. It’s almost like a PvE extraction shooter
Looks like Genshin Impact meets Risk of Rain 2.
I love indy gamea
"Hey Lady! You call him Dr. Jones!!!!!"
yeah, the great circle’s incredible!
Did you write this comment whilst watching an Indiana Jones advert like the rest of this reply thread?
The look reminds of risk of rain 2
I thought hyper light breaker was already out?
Cool
Wasn’t the whole deal with the 1st game was that the guy making it was supposed to be dying?
i am not super optimistic just bc the gameplay shown still looks quite clunky and unpolished. i do, however, really want this to be good and will give it a hopeful shot, when EA releases.
The art direction of Hyper Light Drifter was second to none. However taking it into 3D, just makes it feels like Fortnite..
Dude that's a sad mentality to have, you think because it went to 3d it feels like fortnite....seriously?
@@proxywolfx Eh no. There's also the gameplay and how it looks. You telling me this doesn't look remotely like Fortnite? This feels like its been designed by industry trends. Steam is full of games like this..

Actually looks good
Been super excited for this one. I'm just praying the curse of Kim Belair doesn't happen to you guys.

Console early access release date?
Loved the first one definitely looking forward to this..bring early access to xbox. Xbox player here
IM SO FUCKING HYPEDDD
IM SO HYPED!
Might get a steam deck for this one
looks like those Chinese open world mobile games
Yeah lol, im not gonna buy that shi
So much purple tho
Chromatic Abberation - The Game
the drifter had it's own unique 2d pixel art style, this 3d version unfortunately is not special at all.
🔥
Day one. Loved their other two games. Even if Solar Ash was meh.
NC has so.e of the best MC's. I see you!!
Looks good, but why?
What's the benefit of this being a rogue-like w/ RPG elements and unlocks?
LETS GOOOO
Cross play 🙏🏽
Please please make more characters and animals
Looks Great!
Looks like risk of rain 2
I've been following this game for a long time now, it should be pretty good.
Ugh, still wishing for the pixel art of the original.
Why does it look like Minecraft console edition to me?
Please update the fonts! I beg you!
Hope this is p2p, and not client server so me and my buds dont have to depend on servers to stay up.
Looks like a better version of Wayfinder. I might have to try this game out.
They're entirely different genres
Wow literally my birthday
Look how they massacred my boy...
@@TheMaestro116 :(
Really hoping that's not the case!! But... man
this looks peak
Please bring this to Switch!
Does it have to be played multiplayer?
No
Cant wait for this to finally release, been waiting for years! :)
Where is DRIFTER?!
If this is taking place _decades_ before Hyper Light Drifter, probably not born yet.
FINALLY! a release date
Very very very excited for this one. Combat looks very impactful. Lets hope the controls are fluid and tight.
Is this Risk of Rain 2 x Fortnite?
No playstation? 😢
I cant wait
this looks phenomenal and i absolutely cant wait to dive in
One thing I don't like : hoverboard and kite... It lacks personality when the rest of the soft has a lot of it. These two are overdone, find something else.
God fortnite fucking ruined gliders in games for the rest of all time didn't they. jesus christ.
Eh
Looking forward to Possessors more than this
Me too. This video honestly kind of killed my hype. Doesn’t really look like it’s for me.
So sad to see what the licence has become. Looks like a f*** Fortnite skin with zero creativity for environnements and gameplay.
Ugh another rouge-like approach...
