[b]Risk of Rain Returns[/b] sets a brilliant example of what a [strike]remaster[/strike] [b]remake[/b] should look, feel and play like. Having played the OG RoR on release day and revisiting it lately, I can confidently say that Returns surpasses it in every way (almost makes it obsolete moving forward) while offering HUGE qol improvements. [h3][b]S tier Roguelike, which proves why it's considered a timeless classic by the community.[/b][/h3]
Nice revision of the first game, graphics polished, online co-op game play improved , same as the soundtrack ,playing alone or with friends is an amazing experience overall.
I wondered why in videos when people mentioned "risk of rain 1" why they would 9/10 times show this game instead of risk of rain 2013. I get it now. Play this instead of the original.
I'm one of those scrubs who played [i]Risk of Rain 2[/i] before playing the original, aka the 99%. Except I still haven't played the 'original' [i]RoR,[/i] instead opting for [i]Risk of Rain Returns,[/i] which has been described (perhaps accurately; I wouldn't know) as an all-around upgrade over the original [i]RoR.[/i] Well, upgrade or not, I can confidently state this game is great. It's like [i]RoR 2[/i] with better graphics, worse gameplay, but significantly more dopamine-inducing moments. Arguably the best 2D shooter I've ever played. Some of the items would be absolutely bonkers to see in its sequel. Others, I'm glad were introduced into the first title after they had proven themselves in [i]Risk of Rain 2[/i]. It's really the best of both worlds. Will I ever play the original? Honestly... Probably not, because I have a feeling this is the ideal way to experience the risk associated with rain. 9 / 10 — would get rained on again (except by the Magma worm; ♥♥♥♥ you, Magma Worm)
Definitely better than the original!
A remake of one of my favorite games. I didn't think they'd be able to improve upon perfection, but they absolutely did!
big badaboom on monster
op game for op people
Trials.
it's much less intutive than ROR2 THAT'S FOR SURE, IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL WHEN I GOT HIT, the loot is.... well minimal per map and that leads to less fun overall, in the 4 hours i have played i didn;t get even one good enough run, skill issue maybe but still the information given to me in terms of feedback for almost everything is ♥♥♥♥.
