The two games are completely separate.

Hey, anybody here know when Elsie Lovelock's voice was implemented for Falconer? Since I'm not in the playtest, I don't think I have access to patch notes (if there are any).

tacit urchin
#

Yes, alpha 4

lime moon
#

Thanks. Do you have a source for that you can share? I'm touching up some Rogue Core articles on the wiki currently.

tacit urchin
lime moon
#

Y'know what, it's probably fine without a source on the wiki for the time being. Thanks again.

#

looks cool, but I wonder how are they going to add potentially more classes to this design?

#

I guess they could makes the "shrines" to each class smaller, so that the next one fits

boreal plume
#

I was thinking the same thing

#

space rig memorial hall type design with more room for statues would maybe fit better

#

they could maybe add more to the sides of this hall

#

the other side way image shows that there's some room for 2 more classes

tacit urchin
#

The ever elusive "WIP" tag

#

Also, they can just expand the room further later on

hollow bear
#

The statue version was cooler

#

The icons feel kinda cheap

boreal plume
#

agreed

summer tiger
#

yeah, I liked the one with dwarven statues more

finite tundra
#

Memorial hall is lookin great I will miss the over the top golden statues that took 60% of the companies budget for 4 years reducing our payment for years

median sleet
finite tundra
inner granite
#

Mining operations on Hoxxy so inflated market with gold that you could probably use it as paper weight

raven wharf
#

The dev peek even states that it's WIP. I doubt we're going to just get gold colored icons for the final product.

inner granite
#

It doesn't look that bad
I like gold on dark

somber oyster
#

I would like the memorial to do show your progress if you prestige from bronce to silver, gold, plat, diamond, etc.

hazy tusk
#

honestly i'd rather the memorial hall not show promotions

#

i think the profile border is plenty

#

I say this as someone who knows they'll logistically just never get to max promos ever, simply because i only have so much time for base DRG alone. If there was more prestige content that i'd just never get to see, it'd be a little disappointing

#

Plus i feel like sticking with gold keeps the aesthetic consistency a lot better than would promos for each class

summer tiger
hazy tusk
#

yeah, exactly

#

just those things is fine, I can live without them

#

The memorial hall not being complete without full promos would be a little worse

merry elm
#

Honestly doing prestige upgrades in the memorial hall like the statues you unlock in drg's memorial hall would be enough for me

#

It's just simple but effective motivation to experiment with all of the classes just to see a room in the main hub become prettier

gentle loom
#

Is there any way to bring my friends into the playtest? I realized I was the only one in my friends group who got in and it’d be fun to give it a shot with my normal drg group

raven wharf
#

no

#

unless they also get randomly selected

civic osprey
#

So we know when it’s going to come to ps5

tacit urchin
#

And probably some more

cerulean wagon
#

If it comes to PS5, I assume that means Xbox as well?

#

Or will it be like Deltarune and ignore xbox?

hazy comet
#

is there an estimated release date yet or still unannounced?

boreal plume
#

Isn't DRG even on game pass

#

Nothing is certain yet but I doubt they would skip xbox

boreal plume

we love ignoring xbox

it's why it gets updates at all

Afaik the only time testers were handpicked was during first playtest, as I got a discord message from Mark

Rouge Core when 🥺

somber oyster
#

2 more months at least

#

don´t think is coming april if they are doing another test in march

#

so may, maybe

#

june for sure

#

and my money is in june

boreal plume
#

Yeah I was thinking late May but the latest dev diary revealed that the next play test still needed some weeks of cooking and I changed my mind

#

Let them cook though

#

Going to make the core go rogue

Too late, I already convinced the core that we need a wizard more

Stupidly strong and stupidly fun

Her gameplay is basically "get a good grenade, win the game"

halcyon hazel

Again, I want to play the game so I can experience it

#

But yknow

#

-# PLEASE GSG PLEASE /j

#

Actually what is the price of the public release gonna be?

#

Same as DRG?

halcyon hazel

What're all the new weapons so far?

I love how this game is teased in DRG when you look out from the Space Rig

Only in s6

I've tried on s5 and s4 and I got really sad not seeing the ramrod

so around 30 dollars, maybe 40

Either way i got my work cut out for me

#

Is there a NDA for Rogue core testers

#

I suppose not for a steam test

tacit urchin
cunning locust
#

does the core spawn lore in drg right now continues in Rogue Core?

#

since the theme of the new season in drg doesnt continue the lore of core spawns

inner granite

BUT BUT GUYS WHY NOT JUST MAKE THIS DLC

#

OMG WHAT A WASTE STOP SPLITTING THE COMMUNITY Q~Q

Its like taking someone's skeleton and adding your own flesh to it

Figured I was being sarcastic enough but I guess not

vestal patio

Oh

I might be stupid

tall plume
vestal patio
#

Excuse my incompetence

broken flame
#

I feel like some people aren't really taking a look at the fact that rogue core is a very different game, and just makin assumptions on graphics and setting alone

finite laurel
#

A lot of people still don't seem to understand what Rogue Core actually is, it'll be very interesting to see how the community at wide reacts to getting hands-on experience in this game

jaunty sparrow

can't wait for rogue core 2

rogue core -1 when

jaunty sparrow
inner granite

No, that's 0

vestal patio
#

Guys how many rocks are in rogue core, all I see are stones

finite laurel
#

The core spawn took them all we’re trying to get them back

hazy tusk
#

What if the devs did a rogue core sequel that's like

#

Extraction shooter, but with shorter one shot missions and you get to keep your gear

#

Varied objectives and things to do, maybe a little more focus on the company's typical operations

boreal plume

So deep rock galactic? :D

drg rogue core season 1 rise of the elves

vestal patio
#

Rc playtest tomorrow

rare jewel
#

I swear once this hits early access it's going to be perma in the rotation alongside regular DRG with my gf for our multiplayer and stream games

#

also do we know who is doing the music for rogue core since I know the composer for base DRG left GSG

ashen oar
#

have people already gotten early access?

limber moss
#

Some do, randomly

vestal patio
#

i said rc playtest would happen today but its actually tomorrow

vestal patio
#

yes

#

the internet never lies

boreal plume
#

no early access in the sense that there's no public beta access yet

#

People only get invitations to the closed alpha play tests

#

early access is in Q2 this year

pallid stream
#

Also very curious to find out the price

boreal plume
#

It's most like late Q2 in my opinion 😔

pallid stream
#

😔

#

I just hope it’s gonna cost around 30 euros like drg

#

or less, would be great too but I‘m not hoping for that

boreal plume
#

ain't no way it's going to be less than 30 lol

#

I want these devs to get paid

#

but they said it would be close to drg

#

so you don't have to worry that much

pallid stream
#

great to hear it’s not gonna be much more expensive if at all

#

I only have 40 euros in steam gift cards lol

finite laurel
#

The devs have mentioned on stream that there’s no concrete price yet, but it should be on the level of DRG approximately

daring hill
#

Specifically the price of DRG as it was in early access

#

They've said they also might allow a discount if you own DRG, through the bundle system

idle tangle
#

Anyone know if Rogue Core recieved an update recently?

#

Hadn't seen any news of one, but wanted to confirm

median sleet

vestal patio
inner granite
#

what if we are stuck in endless loop

#

so playtest is always tomorrow

median sleet

Start saying the playtest won't be tomorrow and then it'll actually happen

hollow bear
#

The playtest was yesterday

cobalt ridge
#

whatre you guys on about, there wasnt any playtest

summer tiger
#

It was good, short but good

jaunty sparrow
#

will rc have supporter dlc

idle tangle
#

Very likely

#

Not in early access though

barren panther
#

I am a little behind on keeping up on drgrc has there been any updates on a possible release date yet?

vestal patio
#

Q2 of 2026

boreal plume
#

Q2 of 2026 for early access

#

no possible full release dates yet

clear spire
#

well if we just lie during early access and say there are no bugs and the game is perfect I'm sure it'll release sooner
definitely has no negative side effects

summer tiger
#

Foolproof plan

#

But we'll see if there are going to be any major bugs in P6

#

Mostly probably are going to be spelling mistakes as they seem to be most prevelant in DRG

weak tangle
#

Can you join in with others while they're in the middle of the mission, like in DRG?

hollow bear
#

No

finite laurel
#

They're experimenting with it at least a little

hollow bear
#

There are plans for late joining up until the end of the first stage, however.

pallid stream
#

will rc have the same achievement problems like drg?

mossy ruin
#

those being?

pallid stream
#

I heard that it’s very janky amd buggy with drg

#

like the devs had a hard time implementing them which is also why we don’t have new achievements for the later seasons

#

am I trippin?

mossy ruin
tacit urchin

I just finished season 6 so I'm ready for rogue core to drop.

Just watched a summary video and wowowowowie! I think falconer or guardian might be my faves…..

boreal plume
#

I'm not sure what I like most

#

I would like to try spotter the most though

finite laurel
#

I thought I would like Falconer most, ended up with Slicer as my favorite

#

Especially if you get a bunch of power attack upgrades for him, synergizes well

urban kraken

is rogue core hard to learn

#

:D

It's very straightforward

can we stream rogue core on twitch?

carmine zenith

I stay out of here mainly bc I want to fly blind into drgrc, & avoid anything about it but.
Any knowledge when in Q2 it'll be released? Maybe a mention on one of their streams? Or rumor of when we'll get an official date of release? Or any rumors?
(again, mb if I'm repeating som'n alr asked, but I'm also purposefully avoiding this like the plague)

They're gonna do another playtest invite? I thought they alr sent the last one

that part wasn't clear to me

Early access

#

As listed on the steam page

finite laurel
#

Early access, RC is still very early in development

rare quarry
#

That being said, we're not close to being "finished" either 🙂 Expect some things to be fairly rough for the early access release

finite laurel
#

That's fair, I could've worded that better.

#

What I was trying to say is basically just that I've been playing DRG since late 2018 and it grew significantly between then and its 1.0 release in 2020, and Rogue Core will be more close to that 2018 version

#

Shouldn't go in expecting the full fledged thing just yet.

inner granite
tall plume
#

-# probably like 10-15% ?

rare quarry
rare quarry
tall plume
#

the only point of comparison we would have to make an estimate as players would be DRG but it's a different game with wildly different circumstances for its inception, so we can't really make a guess anyway

finite laurel
#

I'm interested to see what long-term progression will be like for this game

#

If there'll be an equivalent to deep dives

inner granite
#

Core dives?

tall plume
finite laurel
#

Equivalent meaning the endgame gameplay (assuming that's planned)

Something beyond the hardest regular difficulty

halcyon hazel
#

Deadass, I've had this dream snippet twice now that the "Register for Playtest" button on steam came with a "Which class will you use" sort of prompt-

#

And it was Gunner and Scout, who aren't in this fucking game

#

Idk why im sharing this here but its very weird-

novel quiver
#

hyyype

finite laurel
#

Tbh a character like Scout whose whole ability is having the grappling hook could be neat

#

Since it was removed from the game

vestal patio
#

The grappling hook is still there I'm pretty sure

#

I think its just rare

#

Or in a different cargo crate

tacit urchin
#

Got removed almost immediately

vestal patio
#

inner granite
#

No fun allowed

slow loom
#

did they say something on last stream about playtest?

inner granite
#

+1 week to the release timer for asking

broken flame

Do hope that's not the closest to an endless difficulty that rogue core will see

broken flame

Endless probably comes later

Is the server linked in game not working?

summer ferry
#

am very excited to try rogue cores :3

summer ferry
#

I'm glad they pushed through and focused solely on Rogue core instead of DRG these past years, despite what the community asked for

the small amount of money I paid for DRG has paled in how much value I've gotten from that, its why I bought dlc

I'll buy their next game easily, even if its just to subsidize the cost of making it and to pay forward the benefit I got from buying DRG on steam sale early on
I want rogue core to succeed, I want their new project to succeed and maybe even get a whole new fanbase from the roguelite communities
I want rogue core to succeed, I want their new project to succeed and maybe even get a whole new fanbase group from the roguelite communities

#

@granite mist

#

Bringing in an auxilary team to work on DRG was such a smart move and the best thing they could've done, its such a radical idea that most game devs would never even dream of it, yet GSG did it and succeeded in my eyes

#

Allowing them to focus on their vision, which I want to see play out to its full potential

#

I might be GSG's biggest stan but, I am Hope filled

#

stuffed full of hope

#

I hope when they release the game, they'll let us play as male verisons of the female classes and female versions of the male classes.

raven wharf
#

Don’t think that’s happening

inner granite
#

each class is its own unique character with its own personality

toxic wren
# toxic wren true

i just thought it might add more creativity and customizaton to the character customization

finite laurel
#

I would like that a lot, though it does require both VAs record all class specific lines

or just let us put beards on the female dwarves.

# torpid ledge do we know if rouge core will ever be on consoles?

Know? No.

They are planning to put it on consoles, eventually.

But that will come after the 1.0 release, which is likely 2ish years away.

Things could always change either way. It might never come to consoles. It might happen during early access. Both of those are more unlikely than likely, though.

summer tiger

But when you build your enhancements around the bird then it can be one of the highest damage class in game

i never said anything about hating/not wanting to try the game, i just expressed apprehension in trying it out

stable fjord
urban kraken
#

nice!

#

thanks, was just looking for some reassurance, i do get its trying to be different from drg which is great! i wouldnt want to play something entirely similar!

#

ive heard its an extraction shooter, but then some people are like "noo what its not!" so what would you describe it as?

stable fjord
#

well i did 3 runs solo

you improve your gear during the mission like in a rouge like
but you are suppose to succeed not die as late as possible
each mission has a timer which shows when swarms appear and once time is up it gets real hard
the maps are like normal DRG but with more stuff basically what DRG also needs - just more random stuff in the caves

the missions objectives is very different to DRG which is good. if you are use to DRG i would be surprised if you dont manage your first mission successfully even though you started blind, thats how it was for me

stable fjord

this was my first run

Hello, I just found out for DRG rogue core
as a fan of DRG, can anyone summarize me the difference between DRG and DRG rogue core ? From some videos i've seen it's like DRG normal gameplay ( some missions ) and when you reach a level you get to choose between weapon or buff like DRG survivor ?

summer tiger
# sinful monolith Hello, I just found out for DRG rogue core as a fan of DRG, can anyone summarize...

Rogue Core is a rogue lite with some elements from DRG. You don't drop into the mission with prebuilt loadout, you create it on the go. Mission starts with you picking up a single weapon, traversal tool and a grenade. Across the caves you mine EXPenite and if you hit certain thresholds you can get upgrades that make you stronger. Each level has also an big reward event. Everything you do has a time limit, so you have to keep up the pace or you gonna get overrun. Once you get to the elevator you get to choose the risk vector such as more ranged units, more heavily armoured units, basic units are near invisible etc. To sweeten the deal they also come with positives such as heavy weapons crate, gem that gives epic upgrades or an artifact. In the last cave a boss fight awaits. Once you kill it the mission ends in success.

mossy ruin
#

drg EA added a lot of things

#

and we can assume the volume of changes in RC closed alpha vs EA will be simillar

tight shell
#

To be fair, if it does the same as DRG, more stuff will be added with seasons and updates
So even if I saw everything, new enemies, missions and such might come

mossy ruin
#

well yeah, however EA added some major things, such as overclocks, and pretty much the entire end game

tall plume
#

DRG also started a lot more barebone because it was a much smaller studio at the time

#

we don't know what the future will be like for RC and we can't even get a fair comparison due to the wildly different circumstances around their inceptions

#

at this point, anything goes

#

deep rock already is so i’m assuming this won’t be any diff

halcyon hazel
#

The wait is killing me

daring hill
#

I do hope that the release date isn't too far away

#

I'm guessing mid-april, definitely not this month

frigid tundra
#

chat is rogue core worth getting

humble tapir
#

Of course it is.

daring hill
#

the only thing I consider the game to be missing right now is explicit, mandatory objectives in the caves and more layouts. and thats a really small list for a game thats not even in early access yet!

frigid tundra
#

sounds solid

boreal plume

#

oh we have a new animation for ||artifact depositing||

#

from the latest stream

#

animation team creating wondeful things

#

They also tested late joining

finite laurel
#

Or switch between reclaimer abilities

#

They haven't figured out the controller control scheme yet and there's no option to manually re-map stuff like grenades

#

At least in the settings

#

But the game itself on medium settings runs without a hitch (as much as you should expect for a game in early access anyway)

finite laurel
#

Choosing what side objectives to partake in

neat turret
#

this game looks exactly like DRG lol

raven wharf
finite laurel
#

At first glance maybe, but it's very different in practice

neat turret
#

yeah i know it's rogue lite

#

just seems like a waste of making an entire game when they could have just added a roguelite option to DRG

#

Or they could have made DRG suvivor, multiplay 🙂

finite laurel
#

Survivor isn't made by Ghost Ship

They've explained many times by now why Rogue Core isn't a DRG expansion, basically it just fundamentally clashes with what people would expect when playing DRG, they couldn't do the things they wanted to do with Rogue Core

neat turret
#

ah ok

neat turret
tacit urchin
#

Publishing is a different thing

finite laurel
#

Publishing

neat turret
#

k

finite laurel
#

Coffee Stain didn't make DRG, but they published that game

neat turret
#

I added to wishlist anyway. I'll check the game out when its in EA

tacit urchin
daring hill
# finite laurel Hmm, why do you want mandatory objectives? I feel like prioritizing what little ...
  1. Because there is an upper limit to how much you can optimise. With enough skill, it is very much possible to complete everything on a highest-difficulty mission.

Sure, that'll still eventually happen, but extended the time until it does it never a bad thing.
2. Extends the feeling of the facilities being in disrepair to the gameplay itself. Currently, this idea ranges from vague to nonexistent.
3. Just adds more variety to a game that currently has none on a macro level. Facilities are always laid out the same, and the gameplay loop, while interesting, is stagnant and never changes

finite laurel
#

But if you require lower skilled players to complete objectives they'll be at a major disadvantage compared to high skill ones

#

Because they'll have less time gathering upgrades

#

I see where you're coming from

#

But I think variety will get better as they improve terrain generation even more and add more stuff to find and interact with

daring hill
white shell
#

Once you were levelled and knowledgeable, of course

daring hill
#

Obviously this will change person to person, but in my experience? If you are relatively comfortable with DRG, Rogue Core doesnt feel like it starts actively pushing you to go as fast as you can until depth 3-4

#

Below that, the timer is only a risk if you significantly waste time

finite laurel
#

I feel like all of this could be addressed better by increasing facility complexity through branching paths and such, have events that lock each other out or where there's just more to complete than you have time to do so. Requiring players to do a specific objective on every level sounds like it would get much more repetitive in the long run

boreal plume
#

Btw I just watched yesterdays and last weeks stream back to back and I have to say, not a fan of the elevator randomly breaking down

last bloom
#

Any ideas why they call the next playtest alpha? If it’s supposed to release it in Q2?

#

Doesn’t the game need to pass through beta before release?

boreal plume
#

The elevator part was already similar to the uplink and fueling parts of DRGs salvage mission (you have to stay in the area and wait for the timer). Adding the randomized breaking just makes everything more hectic (also confusing), and is a bigger run ender than anything else as far as I have seen from the streams.

boreal plume
last bloom
#

Ah.. so EA should be seen as a beta

boreal plume
#

yes that is correct

boreal plume
#

awww apparently they scrapped the elevator loading screen salute idea

#

too hard to implement

finite laurel
#

Would be neat if your dwarves did a random idle animation in the elevator

boreal plume
#

yeah absolutely

teal mica
# tall plume Nooooooooooooooooooooooo

Has to do with how clients communicate. Though it seems an idle animation that always plays a rock and stone would be doable without any need for communication.

clear spire
#

maybe just like have them do it when everyone's game loads
like in unison before fading to black or whatever

vestal patio
lunar wharf
#

has anyone got access to rogue core?

finite laurel
#

Yes, there's a closed alpha that people randomly get access to

#

Sign up on the Steam page for it

lunar wharf
#

already did just waiting for it pop in my steam libary

median sleet
#

Not everyone that signs up gets invited, next playtest should come with a new invite wave so check again when that releases

native monolith
raw pendant
#

can't wait for the shadowdrop of, not just the early access, but the entire game tomorrow

native monolith
#

If we’re having another beta it’s probably synced with the release date, so I’m all in on the next beta tomorrow

median sleet
# native monolith He might actually be right this time

You can expect these new cosmetics (and their names) to make an appearance in the next Closed Alpha playtest for Rogue Core. More news on that playtest is coming next week. Keep an eye on the Steam page.

From the steam post yesterday

Mm hm

#

True they have their attention divided most of the time. Some of them also didn't know that the elevator could break down now. I'm eager to test it myself with randoms. Hopefully it will play better

summer tiger
finite laurel
#

While I'm not big on the idea of stages having a separate mandatory objective, I do really like the idea of the elevator having a pool of random objectives to spice things up

#

With swarms scaling accordingly

summer tiger
#

Having to load up batteries for the elevator in one of the rooms for the elevator engine would be a nice addition. It won't start the escape sequence without it.

Nice

Rogue core early access date reveal today

limpid comet
daring hill
#

Question: Will the game's price be revealed along with the release date?

pallid stream
daring hill
#

AFAIK that's entirely an assumption that it'll cost the same

pallid stream
#

I recall a conversation about this topic and a few said that the devs mentioned it being a similar price as drg, or at least not above 30 euros

#

wait let me try and find it

daring hill
#

Official mentions on steam regarding a price point are from 2024/2025, and certainly out of date now

Just because there's red in the logo doesn't mean it's rouge core smh

finite laurel

They should add a Rouge Core cosmetic as a sideburns option that paints your dwarf's cheeks with rouge

daring hill

I hope the soundtrack drops as soon as possible

#

I want that shit public so bad, its SOO good

boreal plume
#

I'm excited for the trailer that we get today

#

maybe with new music

#

the closed alpha gameplay trailer was very cool

daring hill
boreal plume
#

yeah I even commented on it :D

daring hill
#

sadly I can confirm that the music used in the first closed alpha gameplay trailer has been cut from the game

#

It used to play as swarm music, but no longer does

DRG Rogue Core news

waxen girder
#

there's no way they are going to make an open beta or something to try the game before purchasing no?

daring hill
#

probably not

daring hill
#

but I doubt it's going to be expensive

#

certainly not going to cost as much as DRG full price

waxen girder
#

i expect at least 20€ and it will increase

tacit urchin
#

The only thing they can try to do is give everybody EA access during the last week (I think they did so with DRG)

#

But, DRG was less known back then

#

And it might be too much too handle nowadays

finite laurel
#

There was at least one free weekend for DRG in 2019, maybe Rogue Core will have some too

#

DRG was open beta with a pricetag too

daring hill
#

same with giving those who got access any sort of recognition whatsoever

waxen girder
#

if the EA is 10€ i will blindly pay it. But more than that idk. I don't like usually roguelites and enjoy very specific ones (never completed one either)

daring hill
#

oh it's not going to be that low

midnight dove
#

This is probably a noob question but Im a PS player and cant play Rogue Core

daring hill
tacit urchin
#

Yesss?

midnight dove
#

Why is it called "roguelike" ? Isn't it a progressive stage-by-stage round thing?

#

Like I always understood "roguelike" as in you wipe you wipe to main screen

dark marlin
#

i dont understand rogue like my experience is only ror2 is it like ror2 with drg stuff?

tacit urchin
#

In roguelite there's a progression between each death

finite laurel
#

It's a roguelite because you start each run with no equipment and get it randomly given

midnight dove
#

Ah I see

tacit urchin
dark marlin
#

like hades?

gusty pewter
#

Cult of the Lamb is a roguelite

daring hill
midnight dove
dark marlin
tall plume
daring hill
#

roguelikes don't necessarily have to be turned based

tacit urchin
#

Rogue was turn based?

#

Hold on, lemme search up

mossy ruin
#

according to the berlin definition

tall plume
finite laurel
#

You always have the reclaimer abilities and perks (they work like the passive red perks in DRG) from the start but you can never be sure what else you get to play with in the missions

tacit urchin
#

Oh what, didn't look like it, but

tall plume
daring hill
#

rogue core technically has meta-progression, but as of right now is it the vague idea of a system (outside of the intel system)

tacit urchin
midnight dove
#

So basically its kinda like a deep dive in DRG, except gear is random and you improve it based on how you "score" (rmine expedite or whatever) between levels?

finite laurel
#

Pretty much

midnight dove
#

Alright sounds cool. Hope it comes on PS5 before i get any lethal diseases / old age

daring hill
#

meta-progression right now is:

  • unlocking biomes, depths, some mechanics, some smaller mission-specific stuff im forgetting
  • cosmetics
  • small stat boosts.

This may seem like a decent amount, but there are a LOT of systems that don't have metaprogression that really deserve it

finite laurel
#

All in due time I'm sure

mossy ruin
#

is the upgrade on spotter which refunds ammo on crit still in the game?
wouldn't call that a small boost lol

daring hill
#

They have said that any items you explicitly hold and do things with will never be unlockable. You get all of that right from the start

#

which is a decision I'm not too big on still

finite laurel
#

Well, your perks can be pretty significant because you can stack tiers of the same upgrade

tacit urchin
#

50% chance to recover

#

You increase the amount of regained ammo now

daring hill
#

Class abilities and bio-boosters (bio-boosters range from notable stat boosts to perks, personal upgrades that can be a nice boost or game-changing for a build) will eventually be something you can swap out and unlock

wooden condor
#

THE ENEMIES LOOK SO COOL

finite laurel
#

They are great, one of my favorite parts of Rogue Core rn is that enemies feel a lot smarter

#

They reposition more and are on average pretty mobile

Crawly sploinky boys

#

Which one is your fav?

tacit urchin
#

The grub

finite laurel
#

Hmm, I think the edgestalker for me

tacit urchin
#

That's a cool one

finite laurel
#

They're sort of like a Menace but they walk instead of burrow, the deal is they try to say away from you and snipe you from afar

#

But I'm also a big fan of shatterclaws because of how weird and gross they look

#

Makes me think of facehuggers from Alien

daring hill
#

they SCREAM man

#

an explicitly human scream

#

the implication is obvious and horrifying

finite laurel
#

Sentinel specters are cool but I don't care for their design tbh

#

Just a ball with occasional spikes

wooden condor
#

I like the rammer

finite laurel
#

The DRG surveyors and their rocket drones are neat

#

Those drones are absolute menaces

tacit urchin
#

Wish they had more of giygas-like texture

#

The red guy from earthbound

#

But yeah Rogue Core has a very nice aesthetic, I like how different enemy design both looks and feels from DRG

#

Old or new

#

It's the polar opposite of what I usually like to use in games, but I think for me it's the mac&micro. Magdumping enemies with it is a lot of fun
