How does Void Bastards Work? A game that changes how you play it. 

Turnkeys

Shut up, no one cares

Im currently on a decent run, ive yet to get to Depth 3 so seeing some of these "new" enemies scares me as just dealing with spooks takes so much of my time on a ship.

I went through a "phase" of constantly buying and playing multiple Rogue lites for a few months, some that i got addicted to was Hades, Cogmind, Caves of Qud, Void Bastards, Space Scavenger, Binding of Isaac, Darkest Dungeon and ofc the legendary FTL, plus a few more that were pretty generic. I dont play them much anymore though, ill dip in for a run now and then but after a while it can get frustrating.

Always appreciated. Lol

@@Kinglink 👌 np

Thanks for the sub! Yeah I think Void Bastards is one of the better games this year (Along with Hellblade and The Messenger). I'm glad this game is getting some much needed attention.

I couldn't really get into children of morta. So slow

I highly recommend Zigguraat 1 and 2! Those are so fun

... And then you realize, that you can just lock the doors to the rooms with spawn point and literrally loot everything in most cases. Coz there are still random ships, where there are spawn points everywhere, ships without locks or without doors at all. And dont forget about no power with no light ships...

YAHOO!

If you like Roguelites, I definitely recommend it. It's not as long as many roguelites, but there's a lot of replayability with different challenges, difficulties, and more. So I absolutely recommend it!

@@Kinglink thanks for your anwser I'll definitly buy the game and btw your video is very cool bro :)

You’re honestly missing out on one of the best aspects of the game. Punishment for death. Makes you FEEL a bit more immersed, and makes you value your characters life and choices more

@@stuglife5514 dudes got no idea what a Rogue Lite is, they expect you to die and its one of the key mechanics that enhances the "immersion" :D

@@temparalflux914 Are you saying that about me or?

@@stuglife5514 no the OG commenter you replied to :D

@@temparalflux914 ohhh okay yea I just couldn’t tell cuz the way you worded it hahah. But yea I agree lol

Nothing in the title said there would be tips. Sorry that I wasted your time.

@@Kinglink Not your fault, just that yours was the 1st to come up in YT's algorithm for tips on Void Bast... didn't mean to shit on ya, the vid was solid, fair review.

Also, subbed 😉

he did, when he hovered over items and door switches, the green "A" came up on.

I really dont like stealth games, but VB isnt particularly stealth, its more stratergy, you still have all out fights with grenades, mines, shotgunes, pistols ect ect, upgrading armour and health, the time spent on each ship (the levels) is only about 10 mins max as your limited to how much oxygen you have, so slow stealth is not wise, you need to move fast and prioritise, its not a stealth game at all.

-Yes avoid screws -80 secs is enough time to navigate around a turret you were blocked by -enemies don't respawn unless there is a void rift (which you can lock off) -If you cannot understand what the use of currency is in a game and also need to google it to know what to buy, then perhaps you should stick to candy crush -"new people" is rather vague, do you mean children? Rogue lites are notoriously hard in general and they expect you to die a lot, its a mechanic that's actually part of the experience.

The demographic. The games you mentioned are multiplayer oriented. Not to mention, fast-paced. The approach is different in Void Bastards. It is resource-oriented with heavy emphasis on micromanagement of equipment and loot. And it's singleplayer. In a market full of FPSs that offer dense combat, grants the player super powers, and demands quick reflexes/decision-making, Void Bastards offers almost the exact opposite. And it's a breath of fresh air to those with high exposure to aspects of the former. Consider the audience whom have played every FPS since the original DOOM. And I bet there are less of those than there are middles schoolers (which is the main target audience of the games you listed). It's also another (experimental) approach to roguelikes that is a "new" genre in itself, which Darkest Dungeons is the best at (still), imo.

Simply put, "Haha click click boom boom nice colours lol look thanos and John wick" is far more accessible to a wide audience than a slower paced, more strategic game thats focus isn't on killing everything in sight.

@@joshuabernardo4305 Having completed the game I realize this but far more people enjoy the “call of duty” style games over a strategic fps game well put joshua.

@@smugbalzaq6048 that's the difference to an indie game developed by a few independent people (a lot only have like 1-4 devs working on it) as opposed to AAA games with huge multi million budgets and hundreds of staff working on all aspects of the production, publicity and the game in general. I rarely play AAA games anymore, they feel like souless flash bang wallop with little substance, they all just tick boxes and are mostly clones of the previous version with a new skin and maybe a new mechanic or two, they also tend to hold your hand with big white or red markers on literally everything saying "press me", rarely do you have to put much thought into them.
