Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core

This game to DRG is what Doom Eternal is to Doom 2016. There's a lot more intensity, more combat, more movement. However, there's fewer exploration, traversal, chill moments and whimsical nature of the predecessor that some people enjoy. You're fighting horrors of Hoxxes IV and each shot counts. For someone who's veteran of DRG (500+ hours), DRG is already boring and if not for metaprogression (seasons, cosmetics, etc), this number would be easily cut in half. Once you get all the overclocks and figure out your builds, you have very little variety between them, you got your go to loadout and that's it. Rogue Core brings a lot of variety in terms of guns, combat, encounters, builds, etc. That said, the new player experience is far from perfect. I suspect Devs went for Hades-like approach where you're supposed to grind for like first 10 runs before you get your progression in a good state and only then you 'play the game'. What works Hades or similar rogue-lites doesn't work here, and ppl get frustrated if they lose a mission. The lack of enhancements at start, the different nature of the game, the fact that guns work very different comparing to DRG, all that does punish new players. I wish the devs could either improve tutorial or make Omega 'helping' new players with tips during first few missions. Tips with guns, upgrades, and so on. Once you manage the first runs and get yourself to Depth3, the game really opens up. For me the pinnacle of Rogue Core is Depth 4 Reckless, the highest difficulty, when combat is so tight and you gotta manage all exploration in the meantime + escape to next floor. Haz5 is DRG can feel like a slugfest, because of limitations of your build, but Depth 4 is a good balance of challenge and fun, because the power ceiling is so high in Rogue Core, you can do crazy stuff while keeping intensity up all the way. As for negotiations, they don't matter as much as people complain here, you main strength comes from BioBoosters and Workbenches, where you make the choice yourself.

It's pretty good. I have no idea why people cry about difficulty or Bosses, could unironically be "skill issue"

Playerbase have been asking for female dwarves for years now, and when we finally get them, its as 2/5ths of the roster. This was the chance to not make the mistake they made in DRG (implementing so many cosmetics that it'd be impractical to port them *ALL* over to new models. PLEASE implement a gender change option

Very solid foundation for building the game on towards full release. Love the classes and the general play pattern. I think there's work to be done in terms of balancing, weapon choice, and variety, but given what the devs have done with DRG, I have complete faith in this game. R&S

Fun game as its own spinoff, but it is very stressful with the limited amount of time per match and leaves me and my friend without some neccesary upgrades, the limited time also leaves us with having to rush through the entire thing and not being able to appreciate the surroundings or finish side tasks. While winnable it leaves me and my friend with not wanting to play more than one match at a time because of the high stress nature. It would be nice to be able to change the amount of time before going into each match and have that scale with the rewards. Still overall fun and great game.

good game, only issue is theres not enough minerals to mine
