Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault

Moonlighter 2 is significantly better than the first game and the amount of reviews talking about changes from the first game and how that's a negative somehow is crazy to me. This game flows so much better. For example, I think the combat and how it felt was the weakest part of the first game vs this game and the upgrades you can get that make combat fun, item collection is more meaningful by having the items you collect effect the value of other items instead of just picking up stacks of items, and finally this game gives me more control during the selling stage back at my shop which is all I could ask for. I have really enjoyed this game and the time I have put into and will continue to put into it. Nitpicking every single difference from the first game is I think just doing a disservice to 2 ultimately very solid games that are Moonlighter 1 and 2.

Everything I wanted out of a sequel and more. This is an absolute gem of a game! I hope more people buy this

玩到现在好些都没搞明白。。节奏偏慢，战斗不要太难，简单的都快打不过。。。构筑太少了，而且很不直观，最终都是奔着遗物去的，导致战斗就更难了。而且回血简直了，不能整个吸血或者击杀回血吗。还有就是打到中间不能保存，退出就重新开始了。

It's not great but it's not bad either, just a bit meh. Gameplay is rather straightforward and nothing to write home about, basically "we have Hades at home" kinda deal. Soundtrack is great but also gets repetitive since the rest of the audio design is rather weak so its all you hear, constantly, and there are very few dungeons to begin with which doesn't help. The shop system felt rather underwhelming, ironically it's more interesting to manage your relics during the dungeons to level them up as much as you can and make everything fit into your inventory compared to selling them and get the most money out of them as you can.

Really pretty game. Good performance. Plays kinda like bastion. You go to a place that is randomly generated and make a run until the boss. Get as many relics you can gather while upgrading your character for that run. Standard stuff but the game is very cozy which i liked. Plenty of upgrades back at the town and on your shop. Enjoyed what i played so far. First look here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aaASmx44LM

Roguelite + Shopkeeping + Deckbuidlung/inventory Puzzle - quite unique game here. Sure there are games who does one category better, but this one does em pretty good and connecting those different elements with one another kinda surpised me that it works so well togehter.

总体不推荐，最讨厌的就是这3d、这视角，不如折磨死我得了。什么犄角旮旯，被物体遮盖看不到的地方，你敢去就敢让你不知道怎么死。还有这难度你也别选什么， 直接简单就行。别像2d像素时那样，没那么爽，也不会像肉鸽那么爽的。就像坐牢，坐死得了。至于游戏性方面就不评价了，只能说能玩，可以消磨时间，

Overall I like this game. Inventory mechanic is fun, combat is fun, making money is fun. BUT despite the recommendation of this game has alot of problems, and other aspect that frustrates me, that I was hoping would be fixed in the full release. TLDR, My recommendation is buy it at sale, not at full price until these things are fixed. My complaints are below. Pros - Game is fun. I like the combat, even if it can be pretty simple. Making money is addicting. Inventory management is probably my favorite part. My complaints are long, but the good for me out weight the bad. Cons -Performance sucks. Its gotten better, but I don't comprehend why I have a better time playing this on my steam deck rather than my gaming pc. I have crashed on my desktop setup countless of times. Stuttering sometimes, and even during loading screens are bad for something of this visual artstyle. A PC with the attached specs, should not be having trouble with this game. If it can play cyberpunk, it should be silky smooth, not a road with potholes. -Time. Alot of things take so much time, that's not playing the game. Cutscenes, to boss phases, to animation, to invincibility of the bosses. There are a lot in the boss fight that's not fighting, or at least not actively fighting. Just waiting for them to do a thing, that feels so much slower than it needs to be. Also screw the Manta boss, thats probably the worst fight, not because of difficulty, but because I hate that he goes to his sky island, caused you to chase and have to hit 3 purples balls. Its a waste of time, its not fun, its braindead. I hate that boss so much, I have not gone back to that set of levels after I got what I needed. -No ability to leave or save and come back.... WHY? Its a big time commitment. Its not multiplayer. To prevent save scumming? I would rather have that ability than to deal with a ruined run from a crash, which made me want to throw a controller at my wall. IF you really hate the idea, at least kick me out with my inventory that I had up until that point. Even if it has to count it as a loss and halve my quality (I hate that but I would rather have this than the current BS system). QOF- WHY ARE THERE NO DEPOSIT ALL BUTTON? Am I missing something? Was the command silently added or did I skim the text and not realize it? I don't think it exists? Why is something simple as deposit all not exist in an inventory game? Why are there no default set all price at cheap or perfect, or bit over priced? I'm not saying being able to change prices at the desk, I mean let me at least set the default to cheap so it doesn't auto default to perfect only for a cheap buyer to come and leave unhappy. I hate actively having to set them to cheap each time I place an item. Also... IF I MANAGE TO hit multiple goals like daily goals COUNT THEM AS COMPLETED! ITS FRUSTRATING HAVING TO COMPLETE GOALS I've already done. I don't care if it makes my playtime shorter. I feel robbed having to meet a goal I've already met as another big milestone. Fast travel is... there, but I feel it should be better. The map is so small it shouldn't need a dedicated full map. I want an easier way to fast travel. -I don't know how to say this, but the house upgrades feel really stingy. If anything, it sucks. I know its probably a balance thing, but you almost don't need furniture. I want to place more of them, but the limit prevents me from doing it. Most unlocks kinda suck. If not for the number of store display stands, theres no reason to upgrade the house/store. Story is...Whatever as a someone who didn't play ML1. I almost was tempted to skip every cutscene.
