Risk of Rain 2 Review - The Final Verdict 

i like when he said "frozen wastelands" the video cut to the moon. do they know about Rallypoint Delta?

Never start a game at 12am because you might think that you'll just play one and then go to sleep, but then you'll be slaying bugs and fireballs all over the map till you realise that birds are chirping outside and it's 4.30 in the morning!

Did you just complain about the game being slow while on the easiest difficulty? The one that explicitly says that it slows down difficulty scaling (that is: the speed of the run/monster spawns) I’m not sure you covered enough of the game’s core features like artifacts or alternate modes for this to be a fair review...

1st thing I see is him buying a fungus on commando when there is a stickybomb right there. I know im gonna like this review

I like at 4:10 when they read the description of rainstorm and then immediately picked drizzle

the thing i find funny is that i first heard about RoR2 from a instagram ad and everyone on there was saying "aNoThEr FoRtNiTe ClOnE" clearly proves none of them played the game

As someone who has played WAY TOO MUCH risk of rain, this game is a 10/10 easy. You only showed gameplay from 1 character, you never played on Monsoon difficulty(which would have made you take back your "slow beginning of runs" comment). You didn't show any of the artifacts you can unlock, either of the 2 alternate game modes that are available, multiplayer capability, modding the game on pc, or any gameplay from a hour+ long run, where you have become incredibly overpowered and is so much fun. I think if you add all of this to your review, the game becomes a 10/10.

4:15 getting to the end of the stage as quickly as possible 8 minutes on the first stage on drizzle

I bought the game today and when i started to play literally without knowing i spended 3 hours playing this game is really addictive. I 100% recommend this game

I don’t know who’s gameplay this is but I’m sorry to say this. Is a baby playing?

It's amazing how in the beginning I never wanted part 2 to go 3D. But man after first time playing it I was like "yes"

How can this guys review the game playing on drizzle and only with the first character.

It hurts me how this person play huntress without sprinting She is made for straving for godsake

Why would you grab Bustling Fungus as commando?

This dude’s gameplay hurts to watch

Low key my GOTY. This is despite playing and loving Ghost of Tsushima.

How do I stop playing. Like literally I played 10 hours straight and it's always one more run.

bro you literally played on the EASY difficulty then complained about it being easy, you know you unlock a new character for completing the first boss 5 times and another new character after reaching and defeating the third boss, you can literally get these just by a few hours of playing, this is a really poorly made review imo, if you really wanted to review the game atleast get a few characters out of the 10 that are available, it just sucks you're putting in the least effort possible.

Worth the risk

This would be 10/10 if this guy played in Monsoon.

Would have been nice to discuss ANY of the abilities or weapons you get. Are there skill trees or is everything just a random drop that you can equip or not equip, do you get to keep your abilities between levels? This review left a lot of info out.

I can tell by the gameplay that the reviewers needed WAAAAAY more time with the game before making a fair review.

This dude plays on easy and calls the game easy

Nice review drizzle Daniel

The two main things I'm interested in are: Does it run well on Switch without slowdown or major bugs? Does it receive updates as often as the PC versions?

Despite being disappointed by the final boss, this is still one of the best games I’ve played in my 40 years of gaming. If you’re looking for a game that makes you feel like an absolute god, this is no1.

I never heard of this game before because it does look interesting

If I’m a fan of rogue-like ? Idk, but I have a gazillion of them in my library of games...

does this game of local coop on ps4 or not

How long would this game take to finish?

LOFI? Really? The game has everything but LOFI music, it has one of the best soundtracks you can find on any recent game.

Wait, lo fi?

The actual goal of the game is to get as many explosions as possible before your pc crashes

Does this game have cross play? My friend has in on pc and I wanna get it on my ps4

I'm glad you guys liked the game and all but uh... You forgot to show or really talk about all the vastly different characters like Loader, Rex, hell CAPTAIN who was the new character to go along with the 1.0 release that you guys are reviewing. Altogether though, if people see this video and get excited about the game and decide to pick it up, expanding the fanbase, then hey, I can't complain too much, hope you guys talk about the game more, it's fantastic!

Lol drizzle. Also can these dudes like ever sprint?

relaxing music for stress relief

Maybe mentioning the multiplayer would be an idea?

Loved the hell out of the 1st game and bought the 2nd for PS4 and Switch. This game is 🔥.

The artstyle looks awesome! I'm guessing that its an Indie too? Indie games have been impressing us soooo much!

A very bad, uninformed review to be honest. The gameplay at the beginning just shows how not to play the game. He then plays on Drizzle, the lowest difficulty possible, which most dont even recomment for anything other than your first 'tutorial run', and which in itself leads you to a lot of bad habits. He then complains that the game, in tutorial mode, feels slow. Like, oh really? That so captain obvious? It also doesnt help presenting the game if you basically only show gameplay of the first 3 stages, where the game is, by design, 'slow' due to a lack of items, contrary to lategame where everything just explodes, causing chain lightning to go everywhere, while you move with 200km/h. He also mentions how much health bosses have.. not really.. you just took waaay to long in your stages and are way too undergeared. Actually, compared to normal elite, that spawn later on (there are elite bosses too), normal bosses feel like they are oneshot - and sometimes actually, literally are. The game also offers a lot of different characters, yet this review mostly only shows one, which imho is the most boring one there is. Besides character variety and mid-lategame showcasing, the review _completely_ skips things like artifacts, or prismatic trials (the latter admittedly being kinda useless right now), which are other core parts of the game. I'd give the review a 2 out of 5. I guess i had to give you one star for at least summarizing the appeal of the game decently at the end..

The game is slow..... WHAT you don’t even how the sprint key bound to something you just removed the most important and useful thing in the game

Man this gameplay is hard to watch.

Yeah, i loved the first one, and i love this one alot as well. ende up spending hours playing especially when u break the hor mark in a stage. all hell breaks loose, literally.

this video has made me realize how much i distrust gamingbolt.

Only shows one character, plays on easiest mode, clearly doesn't have much experience in the game based on playstyle... come on. You didn't mention artifacts, which change the entire game, the different characters, any of the hidden locations, the different difficulties, the challenges, this is a very lazy review. The game is a fucking masterpiece, give it some respect.

Just bought it on switch (its on sale) and its on sale for the ps store might buy again game is fun and ive been playing it on my switch like crazy

How old is the term "rogue like", I've never heard of it before I heard about this game.

Do you keep the loot or no

this feels like it was written by an AI

I JUST WISH THERE WAS CROSS-PLATFORM

What intesterst me the most about this game is the centered camera.

Is there a tutorial or is it just "See that thing? Go kick it's ass"

How have I never heard of this?

Great review!!! Definitely gonna pick this one up

Anyone else reading comments and just sighing out loud?

Just Picked This Up At Five Below For PS4 & It Included The Original Risk Of Rain As Well 👋😁

is this game cross platform?

Drizzlet.

It's not a bad review per say but maybe you should actually play the game instead of goofing around in the easiest difficulty just because you have to review it. Basically, what I'm saying is "How about being a good and not-a-cliché video game journalist for once ?".

I didn't take in any of the information he said, I spent the whole video trying to figure out whether this was an actual person talking or a text to speech machine.

Beat the game on the first run. Wish it was more difficult.

Also Dead Cell is another masterpiece.

very nice video

Lmao!! Review reminds of when the assignment is due in the morning and you leave it til the last night to get done...

Why does Snoop Dogg need an umbrella?? Fo DRIZZLE

If the home shopping network sold ROR2

This review is so poorly made and doesn't do the game justice.

I’m sold

you can sprint

It's like borderland mini😊

"lofi music" *hydrophobia starts playing*

My mans on stage 2 with 22 minutes in drizzle. Call the game easy once u see how screwed u’ll get when you pace yourself like that on monsoon And he called the music.. Lofi...

this guy sounds like someones dad reading a script written by their son who did actually play the game "great loot"

Calling the game slow, while playing on the easiest mode which literally slows down the game. I’m speechless

the outer worlds

What a gamer!

Take a shot everytime this guy says the word loot lol

tanx 4 the rev

This game is the best !

Drizzlet

epic.

iggy azalea

baker mayfield

Fantastic game.

prince ali

Is there 2 of these games cause the one I played was a glitchy shit show with no progression loot or anything but endless fucking mobs and no direction. Killed till I got bored or died, which seem inevitable with fuck all for upgrades.

Good game

careless whisper

30fps game review. claps.

Reviewer gives it a great score and the comments are filled with toxic no-lifers trying to out screech each other on who knows more about the game. Good thing there’s decent ror2 fans out there who don’t behave like this

*Lo-Fi Music Plays*

why do you sound ai generated

It's a really good game

dance monkey

Why was it soooo easy

I think it should be a rule that reviewers beat the game on normal difficulty before making a literal “final verdict”

luuuuht lut lut luuuuuht

This review falls WAY flat. No pros and cons. Just some gameplay and breif explanation of what it offers. I xouls get this from the description and trailer. Thanks anyway.
