Especially really good and satisfying gun sound effects.

    The game is absolutely amazing. It being a roguelike is really secondary. There’s also decent progression, and I didn’t think it was that hard, you just have to get a good loadout running. Occasionally you’ll just get RNG’d within 10 minutes of a run and just start over.

      That’s good to hear. I had heard that you could just get RNG’d out of a run after like 45-60 minutes of good play, so I was just immediately turned off even though the bare premise I’m aware of seems at least interesting. Because it’s free for me, and my time ROI will probably be only like an hour, I will definitely try it! Thanks!

        Yeah, I would recommend looking up some build suggestions. You can definitely get RNG’d later, but it’s way less likely to happen if you have a good build plan going after the first 10-20 minutes. If you just take whatever looks good in the moment, without considering how it fits into your overall build, you’ll get screwed down the line.

        Also, I missed a ton of story because I didn’t die enough. So it really is an intended part of the experience.

          This is a massive relief. Roguelikes and roguelites are stressful for me because I hate the idea that I’ve just wasted a bunch of time on a run with nothing to show for it, so it’s nice that even dying could be a form of progression lol.

          Is there significant risk of encountering meaningful spoilers if I look up builds?
