[topaz onyx]

HOLY FUCK WHY IS THE DYNAMITE EQUIP FROM ROR1 SO OP

[stable sorrel]

There are good Enforcer and Sniper mods if ur on PC

[proper oracle]

Didn't someone already make an enforcer mod that absolutely fucks?

[shy kindle]

when the when the enforcer discord

[stable sorrel]

Yeah the enforcer mod is based

[proper oracle]

Yeah I doubt hopoo could do much better after I had taken a look at it

[proper oracle]

So why bother

[stable sorrel]

:Mask:

[shy kindle]

ok enforcer mod is ok but Hopoo could absolutely fucking trounce them in quality the enforcer mod is just uhh the smile :)

[solid siren]

the shield is so bad yeah

[stable sorrel]

Its ok?

[solid siren]

I mean like
the design

[stable sorrel]

Buggy sometimes

[solid siren]

just makes you invincible

[shy kindle]

there's a lot of aspects of the enforcer mod that I think are pretty mediocre

[stable sorrel]

I think the M1s are the weakest

[shy kindle]

the shotgun feels pretty bad to use despite it's damage output being quite high, the model is very blocky, and the M2 and util feel nowhere near as impactful as they did in RoR1

[stable sorrel]

Id like to see a full enforcer remake by hopoo

I want a dlc that just adds the rest of the characters from ror1

[solid siren]

Tarluk what do you think of paladin?

[stable sorrel]

Classic ror dlc

[quasi cradle]

bro enforcer mod legit uses nuclear throne sound effects

[shy kindle]

Plasma made it so it's probably pretty good

[solid siren]

I think it's pretty much vanilla quality tbh

[shy kindle]

but in all seriousness uhh

I don't think I'd ever want to really use it

from what I've seen of it

[honest garnet]

Why does everyone like elden ring

[proper oracle]

Same reason people like bad alcohol they paid a lot for

[stable sorrel]

[ancient garnet]

I know this is a dumb question but, if i use mult (double nailgun) with brilliant behemoth, will all the nails explode? Or do they all have to roll the 0.6 proc coefficient for the behemoth?

[minor tusk]

because it's elden ring

[quasi cradle]

so true

[honest garnet]

So true

[honest garnet]

Good argument

[proper oracle]

The meme went from "Oh this game is great because it's soooo difficult" to the meme being that the games are good at all

Very ironic

[solid siren]

behemoths chance to proc isn't affected by that, the radius of the explosion is iirc

[honest garnet]

I dont think people likes soulslikes for the difficulty

Maybe I'm wrong

[proper oracle]

That is how it started

The games mostly suck, they look nice though

[arctic hornet]

the whole point of a soulslike is being challenging

[torpid stratus]

the difficultly is part of it because if you die, it's your own fault and you can learn ways to beat bosses based on the moves they're using

[proper oracle]

Yeah the games are obnoxious, but lol

[honest garnet]

Homework: the game

[torpid stratus]

it's liked because you can visibly see improvement

without being too unfair

[honest garnet]

fair

[proper oracle]

It got popular because of the meme

Whether that is a happy accident or brilliant marketing who can say

[shy kindle]

Moffein Bandit was decent but its charm kinda wore off fairly quickly as I did more runs with them, it has some really cool ideas but something about the character just feels...off

Hopoo Bandit is nowhere near perfect but it absolutely beats Moffein Bandit in terms of quality imo, it's kinda around where Arti and Loader are for me as a B tier character

[sage ridge]

no he isnt he is playing monster hunter :(

[shy kindle]

which is why I hold confidence that Hopoo could definitely beat modders for the RoR1 characters especially for Enforcer

[proper oracle]

I mean

They would be making money off it so they could throw mad resources into it, vs one guy who is making a mod

Modders will always beat out the devs if given enough passion

[solid siren]

then you have people like pikmin88 who absolutely despise vanilla bandit but love moffein bandit

[proper oracle]

Instead of DLC like they are doing, they could have made reskin DLC

Like where you take a survivor and just reskin them and their abilities but keep the core kind of the same

Like turning the engineer into a necromacer or the chick with the thick ass into a mage of sorts

[proper oracle]

microtransactions

[shy kindle]

yeah I just

don't understand

[sage ridge]

amunus

like Moffein did have some cool secondaries and I get the feeling that Hopoo definitely borrowed quite a few elements from Moffein especially from the M1s

youre the one claiming this meme

with words and reasoning

[sage ridge]

who said DS games are bad i love DS and 3DS games

[proper oracle]

Warioware was a fucking bop

[shy kindle]

well for some of the modders you actually do have decent sized teams working on it compared to the 4 people over at Hopoo

the difference is moreso A) ease of coding (modders have less to work with than Hopoo) and B) team organization

[autumn acorn]

fake

[proper oracle]

Well yeah the fact that it was their game they built themselves goes without saying

[autumn acorn]

they got popular because theyre good

all attempts to clone souls utterly failed at replicating its qualities no matter how hard they are, and as such are nowhere as popular

don't think about it too much

[shy kindle]

he's loosely based off a skeleton

but not a literal skeleton

[short frost]

Sans bleeds

[quasi cradle]

i watched coco today for the first time, or at least a little bit of it, and i found the skeletons funny but man. they had hair and all, their faces moved as if they were made of flesh, the palms of their hands were made of like, 3 bones, which is so inaccurate

[white kelp]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdcGu3qW8QU

[quasi cradle]

it was definitely intended though so i dont mind

[shy kindle]

honestly with chapter 2 I'm a lot more willing to believe the darkner theory

[quasi cradle]

i mean i dont know, its a kids movie so im glad they did it

[short frost]

Idk my undertale lore v well sorry

[quasi cradle]

i cannot not think about it. my brain works oddly

[shy kindle]

cause if you ||use Snowgrave on a non-Berdly enemy, they have a death animation with blood||

so

[quasi cradle]

while i definitely understand the reason behind the simplification of skeletons, it will always bother me a little

but what can i do. i will live

i mean. the guy in my pfp has bone eyelids and no lower jaw

Merry Christmas my dudes

when i still paid proper attention to anatomy class i realized how complicated the human skeleton is. everything is meant to go together, bones have very specific shapes for that

yeah absolutely

[shy kindle]

listen he's not a skeleton he's a reaper

[shy kindle]

activate it and everyone in your group gets a massive attack speed buff

[winged ferry]

Can someone tell me which is better, I know the answer, just wanna see others opinion on this.
Blight vs Poison.

[solid siren]

equal

[coarse reef]

I love risk of rain 1,2 for console. Is it worth picking up for mod support on steam?

[solid siren]

very

[shy kindle]

fun wise or

[violet sorrel]

Blight for obliteration, poison for looping or mithrix (if you're too lazy to actually fight him)

[solid siren]

you're also gonna get way less bugs and DLC faster

[shy kindle]

modding is a huge game changer for one

autosprint alone is worth the jump to PC because the sprinting mechanic in RoR2 is the smile :)

[winged ferry]

Like general use, comparing the 60% stack to the 10% dmg on total health.

[solid siren]

poison does 100%/s for the vast majority of targets first loop

so 2 stacks of blight outdamage it

[winged ferry]

Thats wrong, it does 10% dmg to total hp.......

[violet sorrel]

Only if it's higher than 1000% base damage (100% per second)

[shy kindle]

ok so the way Blight works, it's better to think of Blight as just a 300% damage increase to every spell with the Poisonous affix

so Neurotoxin does 540% damage instead of 240% + Poison, Epidemic does 400% rather than 100% + Poison

[winged ferry]

Talking abt the poison itself.

[violet sorrel]

Poison is better for groups and high hp targets, blight better for everything else

[shy kindle]

and Poison's better for a more passive playstyle, Blight for a more active one

[solid siren]

"that's wrong"

didn't read the wiki

[shy kindle]

so true

[winged ferry]

Did read the wiki.....

The difference is in how poison works later in the run.

More so poison will effect total hp(1%) every tic.

And my question was mostly based on dmg.

Shouldve clarified that.

Specifically late game.

[violet sorrel]

Your playstyle really determines the difference

Poison will be better late game

[winged ferry]

Thats what I was talking abt

[winged ferry]

Which is better once late game, amd once the player is built.

[solid siren]

still falls off pretty quickly in looping

[winged ferry]

Ive had it go for a while.....

[violet sorrel]

But early game blight will almost always be better, tho you have to go in and melee almost every enemy to do good damage

[random atlas]

I like using it alongside War Horn

[winged ferry]

Makes sense.

[analog narwhal]

Smh the virgin stackable/not stackable DoT passive vs the chad double damage right out of the gate passive

[stable sorrel]

Quick HIFU best stage in Risk of Rain 2

[dense kindle]

[violet sorrel]

Guys I found how to rework acrid!

1. blight stacks refresh
2. poison can stack
   This changes is very balanced because it makes acrid a lot more item compatable, thsnk you for your time

[stable sorrel]

Yes haw

[analog narwhal]

Scorched acres

Easily the best stage in the game in terms of possible power increase
purely factual information

[stable sorrel]

[shy kindle]

true!

[stable sorrel]

Thats true

[shy kindle]

ok but what do you all think of the idea of just making Acrid work like he did in RoR1

with the RoR1 versions of all those skills being ported over

[analog narwhal]

I literally didn’t play RoR1 acrid so you’ll have to educate me

🦍

[violet sorrel]

If acrid leap got removed I'd be kinda sad

Not kinda, VERY sad

[dense kindle]

just replace acrid's jump wit da leap ez

[violet sorrel]

True!

[solid siren]

or just combine them

[violet sorrel]

Give him 3 passives

And turn him into rein sniper

[hollow violet]

rein sniper role when

[analog narwhal]

Bro what

That’s a RoR2 modder moment

[solid siren]

moffein

[shy kindle]

ok so RoR1 was an actual melee/ranged hybrid rather than being not a hybrid like in RoR2

-his M1 worked like RoR2 Loader's does, has a mini version of Blight on each hit and works way better
-his M2 instead was basically him launching his long piercing acid tongue forward in a medium range (think Flamethrower range)
-his utility instead created a large pile of sludge on the ground where he walked for like 3 seconds, and the sludge, which damaged and slowed enemies while increasing Acrid's speed and regen by a decent amount
-his special worked like how it currently does but with a smaller version of current Blight (could be reworked to a smaller version of current Poison if the idea of RoR1 Acrid into RoR2 was realized)

[stable sorrel]

Scored Acres

[analog narwhal]

That’s more actual hybrid sure
I’m thinking of RoR2 acrid base kit and how it kinda doesn’t all come together

The spit is just 😐

[shy kindle]

I think Caustic Leap could still have it's place as an alt utility, trading buffzones for mobility

Frenzied Leap tho

[solid siren]

loadingbasic

[violet sorrel]

Tbh if they replaced spit with ror1 m2 that'd be enough

[stable sorrel]

Fair enough

[violet sorrel]

Imo

[analog narwhal]

Yes exactly

[solid siren]

spit feels so wrong in ror2

I hate ranged Acrid

[violet sorrel]

I didnt like having to keep track of 4 debuffs in ror1, it was kinda confusing

[shy kindle]

when Acrid M2 is just an Arti M1 but green

[violet sorrel]

I'm sure you get used to it eventually but starting out it felt overwhelming

[shy kindle]

like come on RoR1 literally did it perfectly and then RoR2 just looks at it and says "nah who cares"

[solid siren]

it doesn't have the aoe that makes it fun 😔

ask groove and plasma to code a skill cause I'm incapable of uhh existing

[analog narwhal]

Piercing tongue poke sounds a lot more fun than either spit or bite imo

Though I love bite

[shy kindle]

Acrid is honestly the only survivor in RoR2 who I think needs a complete overhaul in how all of his abilities work

all of the other survivors only really need stat adjustments or in the case of Loader, M1 / Pylon reworks and stat adjustments to utility damage

[analog narwhal]

I kinda sorta agree?

[violet sorrel]

And I think having an alt passive that can completely change playstyle is something unique that would be hard to balance if you need to have 3 skills that are supposed to give a different amount of benefit from it

[analog narwhal]

I think some RoR1 ports are great and some are stinker

[solid siren]

so anyways 3 am gn

I think macrid is very fun and in a good spot, as an alternate playstyle, I just don't like racrids design tbh

[analog narwhal]

Basemando I think is kinda stinker
Huntress is fine her skills are just bad I think. All the power in epic dodge move lol

And base acrid just doesn’t feel very good to me either

nor poison but that may just be preference

[violet sorrel]

I like poison but I use a very niche build

And I still like blight more

[shy kindle]

Huntress design wise I think is fantastic in terms of feel and gameplay, top tier

the problem is she does like half the damage she should be doing

[analog narwhal]

Yes

[stable sorrel]

Ye

[shy kindle]

I quite like how Commando feels except for like Phase Round (configged version of Phase Round Lightning with 400% damage on the round and 100% on the lightning fixes this right up tho) and Roll which they literally did right with RoR1 why not just give it armor why did they nerf it in CUM why

oh and Suppressive Fire needs to do more damage but it still feels good to use it's like hunterness except as a single skill

[analog narwhal]

I’d like an option for aoe supp
like if you hold it down you get RoR1 aoe
but that’s just nitpicking

[stable sorrel]

Commando and Huntress just need a tiny bit more damage their gameplay is fine

[shy kindle]

Engineer is Engineer what do you really expect he's always just been ok in both games, the mines don't feel as good and plentiful as in RoR1 and bubble shield is underwhelming but eh

[stable sorrel]

Engie is great damage and gameplay wise

[violet sorrel]

Yes

My beloved

[shy kindle]

Loader has a really good gameplay loop with her M2 and Utility but the problem is that's all she has, her M1 doesn't exist and her Pylon also uhh

Instead of fixing her special they just gave her a super broken one so that's good yes

[stable sorrel]

Kek loader op

[analog narwhal]

I like to think some additional synergies would help loader want different play styles idk
like real barrier synergy

[shy kindle]

for starters I'd nerf her utilities heavily but give her Pylon punching

so she can punch her Pylon forward into a pack of enemies and depending on the strength of the punch (either from M1 or utility) it'll output a mild to extremely shocking shockwave

[violet sorrel]

I likr pylon tech but I dont ever use pylon for actual damage other than wisps

[analog narwhal]

That would be super fun to see

[shy kindle]

then I'd make her M1 not the j

so give her the three hit combo she had in RoR1 but that Hopoo gave to Acrid of all characters in RoR2 why Acrid

[stable sorrel]

Make it so I can punt pylon around with my punch and I will coom

[shy kindle]

and make her M1 obv deal more damage to make up for much less utility damage

[stable sorrel]

Don't nerf utilities thats lame tbh

[shy kindle]

yes

also make it so Spiked Fist treats the Pylon as a Light object (and also prob give it less range to make it not just a straight upgrade)

so there's an actual difference between the two m2s

[analog narwhal]

But yeah I’d like to see loader get more interactivity in her kit

[shy kindle]

ok dude you can't just have all buffs no nerfs Loader is already the most broken character in the game

[violet sorrel]

I just think her m1 isnt mobile enough unless they change it for it to be her go-to source of damage

[analog narwhal]

I’d like to see it everywhere really

[stable sorrel]

Make it so pylon collision damage is just based on the utility damage so its more of a tradeoff between a direct punch or a pylon smash

[violet sorrel]

You have to go from zooming halfway across the map to holding m1 in melee range like you're mining minerals

[analog narwhal]

maybe alts could enhance this different loader playstyle
One for highly mobile nuker and one for slow and powerful bruiser

[stable sorrel]

I could see nerfing thunderpunch AoE though

[shy kindle]

yeah that's what I'm trying to say, the strength of how hard it was punched would determine the strength of it's shockwave when you first punch it

and if it hit a wall/floor/enemy after it got pushed it would do a second shockwave based on its current momentum

but if you want to buff M1 and Pylon to actually be useful and cool you gotta balance it out somehow

in this case I'd remove like about 35% of the utility's damage, have a bit less health to nerf both her health (down to 130 or 140) and her passive down a bit and reduce her regen down to the normal 1 of all other survivors why does she of all characters have bonus regen what

[stable sorrel]

Slow and powerful brusier

[shy kindle]

look I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt and say that it refers to her slow, bulky attacks

[stable sorrel]

Yeah if you took utility damage down a bit but gave her a 3 hit combo on m1 that would be great

More gameplay and less waiting for cool down on shift

[violet sorrel]

Even mult (the "tank" character) has 1 hp/s

[shy kindle]

cause yeah she uh

never was slow movement-wise

not even in RoR1

[stable sorrel]

I agree

Yeah 3 hit combo loader

Let's gooooo

[shy kindle]

if you're gonna give bonus regen to anyone it should be acrid and arguably REX cause like he's half plant

[violet sorrel]

Isnt acrid 2.5?

[plain lodge]

I just want good regen on merc again..

[violet sorrel]

Im fine with merc as is

[stable sorrel]

Loader regen isn't an issue past early game imo

[violet sorrel]

He was way too tanky before the hp and regen nerf

[analog narwhal]

Merc is fine though man..

[violet sorrel]

Considering he has many more iframes than any other character

[plain lodge]

Now it takes 3 seconds to heal 1 hp lol

[analog narwhal]

You have built-in cdr

[shy kindle]

you know what I'm gonna just casually put my balance sheet here for all the ideas I just talked about here and more

[analog narwhal]

for more I-frameage

[shy kindle]

since y'all seem to kinda be on the same page as me here

oops edited over the link https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eANYx3Snh4MN0Vrnasw6wXXb3Ib3upl6ku2JAgxiuc4/edit?usp=drivesdk

[dusk field]

i need help unlocking captain

[shy kindle]

yeah it's just kinda like

loaders already really good did you need to give her that as well, she literally has the barrier mechanic for added tankiness

for other characters regen can actually be a pretty big deal in eclipse and the monsoon regen multiplier actually causes the difference between life and death on the early stages

[shy kindle]

then loaders like nah

[nova pecan]

merry christmas everyone

[analog narwhal]

Merry Christmas

[violet sorrel]

Merry gupmas

[analog narwhal]

my one button 23% damage reduction nooo

well buckler is a shit item anyways

[stable sorrel]

Eclipse

[shy kindle]

look the normal three difficulties in RoR2 are pretty much like

• drizzle: braindead
• rainstorm: easy
• monsoon: normal

if you want a harder difficulty that isn't a modded difficulty like diluvian 🤮 then your options are eclipse or bust

plus I like the feeling of progression in eclipse

[analog narwhal]

some eclipse mods tho

I sleep

[plain lodge]

Eclipse feels like hard for the sake of hard without it being fun

[analog narwhal]

Disagree

i think the mods I don’t like are more of what make it that way

I mean some literally don’t even matter
what’s starting each stage with half HP aside from making allies worse(they were never crazy outside of like equipment drones)
What’s the point of 20% less gold that just doesn’t even matter by stage 3

I like frailty but it’s a boring mod to most

[shy kindle]

the modifiers are by no means ideal but for a thing that probably took less than a day for Hopoo to program in I'd say it's certainly a worthwhile addition

I know Groove is trying to make a mod to change up the current Eclipse modifiers and also add 8 new ones for a total of 16 modifiers

so that'll be cool

[mild orbit]

🫂

i think the wave mode will be really cool

idk how i feel about them rebuilding the console versions

im assuming its going to add alot of issues, hopefully theyll be easier to identify and fix, but i hope its not the wild west like the last update for the console bois

[minor tusk]

what type of rewards do you get for doing eclipse?

is there no reward at all?

[mild orbit]

i just bought my friend a copy of ror2 on xbox & im disappointed that i had to add a disclaimer of "the games a bit buggy rn, but they should fix it soon"

[shy kindle]

yeah uh

[mild orbit]

no rewards, just something new once youve done everything

[shy kindle]

it's pretty good

[minor tusk]

maybe they should make it so that you get more lunar coins if you complete an eclipse run

[mild orbit]

idk tbh ive never finished a run on eclipse lol i been trying since a few days ago

[shy kindle]

nothing by design

they want it to be an optional mode for those who want a challenge and don't mind a bit of bullshit, they don't want players to feel obligated to play it for a carrot on a stick at the end

[mild orbit]

man i had the PERFECTTTTTT merc run yesterday on eclipse

[minor tusk]

i guess that's fine

but what if they made it a little easier and the trade off being that there's a reward?

[mild orbit]

i get to stage 4. as soon as you spawn you get half health from the modifier & on top of that, i had glass...

[minor tusk]

no more bullshit, and a reward

more like a win win then a trade off

[mild orbit]

second i spawned i was greeted by an overloading contraption

that run was so good. my first 2 items were alien head and resonance disk

found a syringe printer

[minor tusk]

luck of rain 2

[shy kindle]

[mild orbit]

then i got potatoed by 1 shocky bell

[shy kindle]

not everything needs to have a reward

sometimes just beating it should be the reward

[minor tusk]

i can't even do monsoon man i just died with loader because i got one shot by a brass contraption because i had shaped glass lmao

[mild orbit]

the reward is bragging rights

[shy kindle]

yeah you'll get better in time, when I first played even monsoon command felt harder than rainstorm

also don't use shaped glass

[mild orbit]

does anyone know whats with the glass frog

ik its in there, but like why

[shy kindle]

new players will just get killed with it and experienced players don't need it

[minor tusk]

reference to mithrix and providence's childhood

[mild orbit]

ah

weirdos

playing with frogs

and glass

[minor tusk]

frog good

just look at the frog who wouldn't want to be friends with him

[mild orbit]

sorry

[shy kindle]

yeah risk of rain lore is

[pastel sedge]

Did someone bring up L O R E?

[shy kindle]

like I respect that it has lore but I cannot take RoR2 lore seriously

[minor tusk]

frog

[shy kindle]

RoR1 was done better in the lore department

[pastel sedge]

Oh don’t try to take it seriously

[mild orbit]

nah ror lore is pretty cool

[pastel sedge]

It’s cool, but man is it frustrating at times

[mild orbit]

but the frog is strange

[true pond]

For example Commando is canonically an otter

[mild orbit]

but also floating fireheads that shoot lasers are also weird

[pastel sedge]

Yeah and Tharson should get into the game >:(

[minor tusk]

wdym

[minor tusk]

poor tharson doing everything for the logs LOL

how the hell is tharson alive

[pastel sedge]

90% of the lore always ends in dead ends, with it saying “there’s more” but we never get more

[mild orbit]

New name goated

[pastel sedge]

Take the War of 2019 for example

[mild orbit]

Rip street jebus

[minor tusk]

uhhhhh
give me an example

[mild orbit]

What year is ror2 set in

[pastel sedge]

We KNOW there was a war in 2019, also named the War of Slopes.

We know there was a rebellion that used ancient artifacts to fight back.

We know that it was the bloodiest war in human history

But that’s it. We’re not given motivations for the war, we’re not given the outcome of the war, not even PEOPLE

You see what I mean? It’s a dead end. We’ll never know the full story of WW2019 because they don’t GIVE that information

[random atlas]

I find a lot of games do that nowadays. I wonder why such a trend started.

[minor tusk]

wait where was this in ror2? i thought most of the lore was just about people figuring out how fucked up they are now that they're on the planet and mithrix being locked away on a rock

and then there's little tid bits like "her"

[stable sorrel]

I love RoR1s logbook

[pastel sedge]

Look at the following:

RoR1 Warbanner
Brilliant Behemoth (RoR1 and RoR2)
Berserker’s Pauldron

They all mention WW2019, but we never know the true story of what happened

[stable sorrel]

Its so cool to get a survivor's direct perspective on the enemies and bosses

Gup smelly good

[pastel sedge]

Because they want to be “oooooooOOOOOooo so mysterious”

[minor tusk]

the obelisk actually does that well

"obliterate yourself from existence" is such a cool thing

[stable sorrel]

Oh shit is this a new episode of gd1 hates ror2?

[random atlas]

I don't think it's so simple, though that is probably part of it. It's a decent tidbit of flavor, but it is "free" in that it doesn't require thinking up an entire, cohesive timeline and a plot with active agents playing roles within it.

[pastel sedge]

I don’t hate RoR2. I just wish there was more than just empty plot lines

[minor tusk]

there is no mult plush in ror2, 0/10 dont reccomend

[stable sorrel]

Idk the lore and idc about it

Hammer man go brrrr sword man bad me shooty enemies

[minor tusk]

woman swings like spiderman and punches really hard

[pastel sedge]

But yes, that is the main lore that takes priority

[random atlas]

I used to play Arknights a bit, it kinda reminds me of that, with a bunch of flavor lore being hinted at, but never actually developed. It's like foreplay and then you both just go to sleep.

[pastel sedge]

I hate you for this comparison

[final crystal]

happy gupmas, gd1

[random atlas]

u'r welcum

[minor tusk]

thank you for bringing gupmas to gd1

[stable sorrel]

Dark Souls lore is very passionate foreplay that never escalates

[pastel sedge]

Yep. And honestly I wish it wasn’t personally

I know it’s some people’s things, but I love direct stories

[stable sorrel]

Leaving you in a constant state of desire and lust with no relief

[stable sorrel]

Finally somebody who agrees with me OMG

[minor tusk]

are there any other examples of ror2 lore being lazy

[random atlas]

I am somewhat inclined to disagree, but only in regards to the first game. The lore in the first game, in a few cases, actually connects to the main story (namely the Sunlight Princess Ring).

[minor tusk]

by direct do you mean like easy to follow

[random atlas]

But, come to think of it, Dark Souls might be somewhat the cause of this "lore without history/plot" approach to storytelling.

[stable sorrel]

No direct as in actually telling a story with characters and stuff

I don't mind stuff being hard to follow

[random atlas]

The main thing with making a good plot is that writing hard tho

[minor tusk]

oh yeah that shit is good

[stable sorrel]

Good example is Silent Hill 2: amazing character driven story but it leaves a lot up to you to figure out.

[minor tusk]

im not sure how you would do that in ror2

maybe have some items be particular to different survivors

[stable sorrel]

RoR1 did its story well

[random atlas]

Risk of Rain 2? It'd be possible, but given the nature of the game...Hmm, I dunno.

[stable sorrel]

Its concise and conceptual more than character focused but its tragic and compelling

[minor tusk]

oo i have a cool idea
how about ror2's lore works like this:
the survivors work in a particular order in the lore, for how each of them died maybe.

[stable sorrel]

The whole realization that you AND providence are both third parties to a broader situation is great.

[minor tusk]

wait i thought the whole situation was providence and mithrix

how is providence a 3rd party?

[stable sorrel]

RoR1 by itself doesn't introduce mithrix at all

[random atlas]

Providence could have been merely representing another faction as a whole, for example. I know nothing of RoR1, though.

[stable sorrel]

In RoR1 its just providence trying to stomp your rampage of his little preservation

And you're just trying to survive

[pastel sedge]

Okay, here’s one:

Artificer. We get ONE entry explaining the High Court, and that’s Artificer’s log.

We know that they’re a relatively secluded community that focuses on expanding their technology, but doesn’t wish to share it.

We know that in that group is the House Of the Beyond, an even more higher group that the Artificer is from with the ENV suit.

We know the goal of the High Court is to find “Heaven”, which they believe is a place in space not on another realm.

But we don’t know how Artificer GOT to Petrichor V. We don’t know why she was captured, and we don’t know what role the High Court plays in the world of Risk of Rain

[shy kindle]

RoR2's logbook and "and so they left" entries feel like they take themselves far less seriously which is a shame imo

[random atlas]

...does that make them a third-party? That doesn't sound like the definition I use for the word.

[stable sorrel]

You and Providence are victims of circumstance

[random atlas]

Yes, but a "third-party" implies an entity or group from outside a specific 'thing', in this case, conflict.

[minor tusk]

wait they never explain how artificer got trapped "in time" in the lunar shop? seriously?

[pastel sedge]

Nope

[fluid sonnet]

she mightve thought it was heaven

[stable sorrel]

UES and the broader colonial projects that resulted in them taking a teleporter are the main causes of the games events you're just kinda caught in the crossfire

[fluid sonnet]

and attacked newt like he was satan or something idk

[minor tusk]

getting trapped in time sounds like the equivalent of getting high on weed but the effect lasts forever

[random atlas]

I think the point is that the game itself never divulges any information on the Artificer and her being frozen in time.

[stable sorrel]

Now we know that Mithrix put that teleporter on and Providence was saving Earth but we didn't know that in RoR1

[minor tusk]

what is the newt anyway

[pastel sedge]

It’s a possibility, but we’ll truthfully never know the REAL answer unless they explicitly give us something

[fluid sonnet]

newt is kind of a god

[pastel sedge]

Funny you ask because we DO get an answer for that in a log!

[minor tusk]

well the newt cant die

[fluid sonnet]

in his own realm

[pastel sedge]

Sort of at least

[minor tusk]

incredible

[stable sorrel]

Providence is a hero and i killed him 😭

[fluid sonnet]

we have no idea if he gets his power from being in the lunar portal and becomes a slug outside of it

[mellow cradle]

Balance is irrelevant in ror2

[random atlas]

I still dunno if that makes them a third-party, it seems like he's pretty directly involved in the conflict of the first game.

[light bison]

providence is a boss from calamity mod

[minor tusk]

[minor tusk]

ehhh

[mellow cradle]

Age old opinion 😮‍💨😮‍💨

[light bison]

is that beanos in among us on his pfp

[minor tusk]

i mean the balance is balanced out by actually getting the items so it's perfectly fine

[random atlas]

Snails really do be cutie-patooties

[stable sorrel]

Bungue

[minor tusk]

snail good c:

[minor tusk]

you think engineer gets high on bungus

[random atlas]

All this talk about good storytelling is making me remember this terrible D&D character my friend sent me screenshots of. Christ.

[mellow cradle]

Send them here

[stable sorrel]

No because bungus is just food

[mellow cradle]

In game discussion

[minor tusk]

-he's immortal
-he's half everything
-he's cool
-all the ladies fall for him

[pastel sedge]

Newt is actually a defective out of a group, with a lame arm.

Newts travel through a “slipstream” through time, and while every other newt left, he found a little cove that he hangs out in, and lets himself rest. This cove is the bazaar between time

[mellow cradle]

Average Chinese novels mc

[random atlas]

Nah, it's worse because it's both unironic and, at its core, an interesting idea.

Shame the execution is such garbage.

[minor tusk]

oh no

[minor tusk]

so did he betray this newt group or did he leave by choice

[mellow cradle]

Half blood golden dragon god with talent stolen at birth 😟

[pastel sedge]

He did not betray. Every other newt just thought him weak and left him

[minor tusk]

bruh

[pastel sedge]

You can even see Hes defective because of his little arm

[minor tusk]

who needs arms when you can't die

[random atlas]

Nah. Stereotypically teenaged (self-insert OC af) Tiefling Warlock girl who is the daughter of ...some demonic patron (so, hell's equivalent of a demigod) who has somehow bartered for the rights to use the powers of multiple patrons at once on the promise of ...magical research she hasn't actually done yet.

They give her powers in order to ...participate in a magical power raffle contest. Except there might not even be any prizes to win.

[winged ferry]

I hear DnD stuff

[rigid lintel]

question

can you drown a rodent in soy sauce in ror2?

[pastel sedge]

I hope one day though, in this DLC, we get an answer to one question that’s been bothering me

[minor tusk]

no but you can probably drown a beetle in tar so close enough

[rigid lintel]

plans foiled yet again

[minor tusk]

plus the tar tastes like soy sauce

i would know

[minor tusk]

it's close enough it can work

[rigid lintel]

no it has to be a rodent

[random atlas]

Does the tar get explained? I'm assuming the magical earth golems aren't.

[rigid lintel]

ror lore is wacky man

[minor tusk]

the magical earth golems were made by mithrix to protect the planet

[pastel sedge]

Vulf in his (unfinished) document explains it, but that’s one of the things I don’t quite understand

[ripe dragon]

https://tenor.com/view/cock-look-at-this-gif-21987335

[minor tusk]

aurelionite was a stone golem providence made, and he put to much soul in him so that's a nono in mithrix's mind and so he put him in a cool golden cage

[pastel sedge]

The golems are… something else though, made by Providence I think?

[rigid lintel]

woah that cock is huge

[ripe dragon]

providence > mithrix k bye

[random atlas]

Mithrix made the Wisps, I thought. Did he also make the golems?

[minor tusk]

mithrix looks better then providence

[ripe dragon]

I know right? its the colonel

[ripe dragon]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-the-cap-cap-laugh-video-reaction-youtuber-gif-18293251

[minor tusk]

providence looks like a generic person you find in the desert

mithrix looks like a marble warrior

he also has a big hammer

[pastel sedge]

Wisps we’re not made by the brothers.

They are made by the Grovetenders, who were saved by Providence from a “dying world”

[ripe dragon]

look at mithrix, ugly ass

[pastel sedge]

I agree I like Providence more

[random atlas]

Providence do be bussin'

[minor tusk]

bruh

[pastel sedge]

But I think there’s a potential reason as to why Providence has these clothes

[ripe dragon]

providence color scheme is better

[minor tusk]

ok to be fair that's a fan made drawing of providence i think

[pastel sedge]

Yes, but it’s really similar to Providence’s outfit

[minor tusk]

i don't know i didn't play ror1

[gusty swan]

providence is hella

[random atlas]

Okay, to be fair, Providence is literally just a bunch of pixels so why even compare them then?

[alpine shadow]

Yooooo

[rigid lintel]

providence yum yum

[gusty swan]

mithrix do be destroying

[ripe dragon]

hes holdin his hat and he still doesnt look better

anvil lookin ass

[minor tusk]

lol

[winged ferry]

I mean, that's probably intentional

[rigid lintel]

petrified Cthulhu looking ass

[ripe dragon]

well yeah

but that doesnt chance the fact that hes ugly

[alpine shadow]

Looks like a squid to me

[random atlas]

He does have a hammer, after all. Coincidence? Maybe. I'unno.

[minor tusk]

if that providence drawing looked as good as ingame providence i would agree that providence looks better

mithrix is just cool

because he uh
is

[random atlas]

That's... alright, moving along past that awful take.

[ripe dragon]

the closest thing we have to 3d rendered providence is the paladin skin

[minor tusk]

o k

[ripe dragon]

which looks better than mithrix ;3

[shy kindle]

classic gd1-made copypasta

[alpine shadow]

Balance matters in nearly every game though

[ripe dragon]

and thats why ion surge is the best ability in the game

[pastel sedge]

I get what they’re saying, but in a way balance does matter to an extent

[shy kindle]

you'd be surprised how some people...disagree

[ripe dragon]

nah it doesnt

[random atlas]

Take Tetris, for example. The 2x2 block is broken af.

[shy kindle]

[pastel sedge]

You literally play on Stadia be quiet /j

[alpine shadow]

Stop the cap!

[ripe dragon]

"yea bro pokemon is unbalanced because some pokemon have better stats than others"

[arctic hornet]

it depends on how op it is and what type of game it is

[minor tusk]

it only matters if you can literally become immortal

[random atlas]

Did someone say Pokemon

[pastel sedge]

Yeah and then most people be quiet lmao

[minor tusk]

that's literally the only thing that matters in ror2 is if you can become immortal

[alpine shadow]

Toad runs faster than Mario so he's op

[minor tusk]

which you cannot unless you work for like 5 hours straight

[pastel sedge]

I’ve had some good runs

[random atlas]

Becoming immortal and lore.

[minor tusk]

l o r e

[pastel sedge]

I care way too much about RoR lore lmao

[shy kindle]

no Pokemon is unbalanced because the way gyms are structured makes them inherently pisseasy cakewalks

[minor tusk]

digging through the game files to find out who "her" is be like:

[alpine shadow]

Ror lore be like: Space.

[ripe dragon]

talking about multiplayer

[pastel sedge]

(At least I don’t believe I’m better than the devs unlike someone :) )

[random atlas]

It's cool, I get way too invested in these sorts of things, too. It's why I've been mad about this one terrible Warlock character for the past hour and a half.

[ripe dragon]

in terms of singleplayer, yeah it needs a hardmode but idrc

[minor tusk]

if we make the moon made of cheese
the lore would be perfect

[bronze vortex]

Grumble gup

[minor tusk]

mithrix could be the king of cheese

think about it

[pastel sedge]

TRUE

[ripe dragon]

"brother, why is our moon made of cheese"
"for the funny"

[random atlas]

No, seriously though, how the hell are you going to justify some teenager self-insert being able to get multiple demonic patrons to give her power on the promise of a chance at getting returns...? What kind of divine charisma are we talking about here??

[low hemlock]

Hello gd1

[alpine shadow]

I love being new to the game and not knowing what the heck you mean

[minor tusk]

"the cheese is delicious brother"
"this is very unsanitary"

[storm tapir]

why is sundered grove

[minor tusk]

good question

[random atlas]

How is sundered grove

[pastel sedge]

Providence

[low hemlock]

Sundered Grove is the best that's why

[storm tapir]

sundered grove sucks dick

[pastel sedge]

Blame Providence

[storm tapir]

i would like my maps to actually have chests on them thank you

[low hemlock]

So does your mother
What's your point?

the teenager showed the demons their 57 leaf clover

Good argument, however, your mother.

and then they said "yeah they'll be fine"

[storm tapir]

my point is that sundered grove is the devils creation

[pastel sedge]

You can tell Sundered Grove was modeled by him because of the shapes:

Providence loved curves and circles

Mithrix loved sharp edges and triangles

[low hemlock]

Sundered Grove has chests

[random atlas]

Well, his brother does love worms, and worms do be squigglin'

[low hemlock]

Worms shmove

[minor tusk]

the radar equipment will solve all your problems

radar is the best equipment change my mind

[storm tapir]

i do not play command

[pastel sedge]

Just don’t get Sundered Grove and lunar your way out

[low hemlock]

Me when radar scavenger 😄

[storm tapir]

i did vfields ;-;

[alpine shadow]

Commando is garbage

[minor tusk]

good idea

[pastel sedge]

Gesture Volcanic Egg would like to have a word with you

[random atlas]

You should have invested in a higher Luck stat while in the character creation menu like I did.

[minor tusk]

commando isn't garbage he's just ok

[low hemlock]

Elden ring

[storm tapir]

i had choice of sirens call and sundered grove in the bazaar so i decided to do vfields

[minor tusk]

how is volcanic egg good

[pastel sedge]

It’s not, but gesture volcanic is funny as fuck

[minor tusk]

ah i see

[low hemlock]

Your mother

[pastel sedge]

One moment your beating the enemy’s ass then suddenly you’re a fireball

I still like my Disposable Missiles. I like pressing a button and watching things explode.

risk of sewerslvt

[minor tusk]

this is normal behavior

[low hemlock]

Ok anyways goodbye

[random atlas]

I like it so much that I grab 10 Fuel Cells whenever I do Command Artifact.

[alpine shadow]

Yo do they have intercourse in this game? That would be cool I think.

[pastel sedge]

I’m curious

[random atlas]

Hello curious.

[pastel sedge]

Do people actually say RoR2 is too easy when they use Command?

[storm tapir]

it is

[minor tusk]

well i dont know if people say it but it's true

you can literally choose your items it can't get easier then that

[pastel sedge]

It is true because you’re removing a key aspect of a roguelike lol

[random atlas]

I dunno. I mostly use it to just muck around with weird builds and new characters, like Loader. Loader is fun, but I am not at all used to her.

[minor tusk]

spiderwoman that can punch hard

[pastel sedge]

I started using Command more for achievements

[minor tusk]

i dont like command it devalues items for me

[pastel sedge]

Me too

[storm tapir]

i get most of my weird builds by just playing the game and adapting to waht i get

[minor tusk]

i used to be happy when i found a atg missle mk1, now im just like "cool"

[pastel sedge]

Part of the fun of the game is to try and build around whatever the game throws at you

[random atlas]

I find it devalues non-chest interactables moreso than the items themselves. No point in having 3D printers when you can just pick up any old drop and make it that item.

[minor tusk]

im pretty sure command removes printers and multi chests cause

y'know

[random atlas]

It doesn't remove Order ....Altars? Statues? Whatever, and Newt still has his printers, as does the final stage.

[pastel sedge]

The printers just spit out the essence

It’ll look like you’ll get that item but you just get the tier essence

[random atlas]

Ooooh

[shy kindle]

because when you have the gimmick as "every monster is catchable" you can't exactly introduce a legendary Pokemon that a preteen can't catch

[alpine shadow]

Space game is hard :((((((

[random atlas]

What, no, I meant the D&D self-insert Warlock with the powers of multiple patrons.

[shy kindle]

oh I thought you were referring to like legendary Pokemon lol

[random atlas]

Oh, nah, though that is also big dum

[storm tapir]

i think if you wanna have you dnd character be extraordinary its fine as long as people are okay with it

[random atlas]

I mostly just want stuff to make sense within the setting, and this is some top-tier political power play stuff for a level 2 Warlock to pull off.

[storm tapir]

well did you bring it up

[random atlas]

Yes.

[pastel sedge]

Good.

[dire arrow]

man im so glad merc can launch enemies into the stratoshpere on accident

but seriously what do i do here?

[abstract cloud]

your best

[dire arrow]

tried that

[pastel sedge]

Just wait ig

[dire arrow]

its completely out of bounds and that breaks the ai

in other words
its not coming back

[pastel sedge]

Uh

I guess the run’s over

[dire arrow]

also there are two out there
and this is the opposite side of the map that the teleporter was on

[pastel sedge]

Might wanna submit that to bug reports

[dire arrow]

hopoo plz fix this map

[dark bloom]

hope for the zappy equipment? cant remember what its called

[dire arrow]

dont have one and everything is locked anyway so its not like i can look for it either

[vital coral]

Also did this

Thank god I was mando and not a melee

[pastel sedge]

You could try to trimp?

That’s my only guess

[dire arrow]

id get teleported back before i get close enough

[dark bloom]

oh right. i made a dumb

[dire arrow]

its not just straight up

[dark bloom]

maybe try to proc dagger or atg missiles?

[vital coral]

No ways missles could get up there

And I doubt daggers would be able to either

[dark bloom]

does the artifact portal still work when tp is loaded? maybe you could use that to loop if you have to

[pastel sedge]

Unless you opened it first, no

The buttons lock

[woven shale]

Hello gd1, I am at some random rural area with some how great service. I also don’t have my glasses so pain.

[dark bloom]

ah darn. wasnt sure if buttons locked or not

[woven shale]

Gup tho

[dire arrow]

youre lucky they didnt get launched so far that even mando couldnt reach
his range is deceptively small compared to many other characters

[vital coral]

My attacks did 1 damage

Land no procs could reach

It was awful but I feel so bad for you

[dark bloom]

could another player join in as a character with range to help?

[dire arrow]

no

[pastel sedge]

You can’t join into an existing run without mods

[dark bloom]

darn

[dire arrow]

thats only possible on stage 1 when the game is already multiplayer anyway
and those maps dont have this issue either

enemies get instantly killed if they get thrown too far out on most other stages

[vital coral]

It happens on stage 1

That’s when it happened to me

Thanks dissonance

[dire arrow]

im pretty sure sky meadows is the only map in the game with zero map borders for the enemies to die to

[vital coral]

Wait ya

For me it launched alongthe edge

[dark bloom]

only other thing to save your run that i can think of is perhaps some console command?

[hidden saddle]

get several billion razorwires rq and take damage

[winged ferry]

talking about ror2 on gd1? 🤨

[dire arrow]

it will teleport you back if you go too far out on sky meadows
but if, say, the horde of many brass contraption boss run into the asteroid belt and get launched out far enough they just fly away and then forget how to move bc theyre out of bounds

[vital coral]

No ror1

[hidden saddle]

ror1 in gd2

[vital coral]

Brass controlltion

[winged ferry]

gd3 would be fucking based

[dire arrow]

we used to have gd3

now its gq

[winged ferry]

gd1 is general discussion 1 actually

[vital coral]

Geometry Dash 1

[dire arrow]

basically

interstellar desk plant

[peak bolt]

http://puu.sh/IyyRo/1a3c97f51a.jpg

[dire arrow]

frost relic used to suck kind of (low damage and low proc and wasnt even consistent)
and now its just good (good damage, and free ice debuff)

[peak bolt]

sai in da lobby who will they pick

[winged ferry]

im gonna sleep now, its 1am and im probably not gonna sleep more than 5 hours cuz some random just sent me gore and i cant forget it

[winged ferry]

rex

[hidden saddle]

rex

[peak bolt]

omg

let's gooo

[dire arrow]

turn the place into a cabbage patch

[abstract stump]

hey should i get black mesa or ultrakill

[short frost]

Gd1 is about risk of rain, we just go on long tangents

[abstract stump]

oh lmao

i forgor

[short frost]

Ultrakill

[abstract cloud]

heres cute creature to help :'( rest well
https://ve.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_pnr9kjFQ6l1wjlseu.mp4

[stable sorrel]

la creatura

[dire arrow]

risk of rain is actually just as chaotic is this channel is
but there is a method to the madness here, and its predictable enough to follow and never be surprised by anything

[abstract cloud]

dios mio...

[woven shale]

@wise cloak this didn’t date well

[wise cloak]

😬

[hearty stone]

What's the hardest character to unlock

[dire arrow]

depends

[woven shale]

Probably rex

[distant flower]

Sex

[dire arrow]

yeah probably
tho loader and acrid can be difficult too

mercenary is hard if you struggle with looping

[woven shale]

Well that would imply that you have a skill issue

[dire arrow]

yeah

or you just havent gotten the right run

[woven shale]

Can’t have that

[distant flower]

None are hard to unlock

Just a skill issue

[woven shale]

I didn’t start with huntress, I wasn’t always this way

[hearty stone]

What's the interact button

Cus I keep getting this high jump perk with ground pound and don't know the button

[dire arrow]

what did you bind it to?

[hearty stone]

Default settings

[woven shale]

Hold interact

[dire arrow]

the interact button is the button used to open chests

[hearty stone]

Bruh 💀

[woven shale]

You gotta hold it tho

[short frost]

Interact is default E
