[h1]Shlorp[/h1] [i]There will be a TL;DR at the end.[/i] ~ [i]Slime Rancher[/i] is an [b]Excellent[/b] game! One of my favorites! I’ve played north of [i]120[/i] hours of that game and will probably go back one day to do it all over again. Coming over to play [b]2[/b] did not inspire the enjoyment that I was hoping, and I cannot in good faith recommend it. I understand why folks love this experience, even if I'm the odd one out. [b]Slime Rancher 2[/b] is [i]great[/i] because it’s [i]Slime Rancher[/i]! It’s also [b]NOT great[/b] because it’s … it’s [i]Slime Rancher[/i]. This is sadly something meant more literally than I wish it did. The experience is a direct sidegrade to the original experience - albeit with lower quality. That’s why I don’t like it as much as everyone else - also why my own mother didn’t seem to like it very much. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3758881920 There’s actually a lot to like about the title. First and foremost - Harry Mack makes a AAA return to compose the music for the game - which takes center stage above all else. OST worthy of legendary status. The cute slimes, saccharine atmosphere, and kitschy exploration all make a return in force. Slurping up slimes, food, and resources while exploring the [i]Far Far Range[/i] is as much a pleasure as it ever was. It’s the same formula that worked for the original title! The nicest things I can say about this game are also the same reasons I can’t rate it very high on a personal level. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3758882642 It’s the same thing as the titular [i]Slime Rancher[/i] - very little change overall. You corral mostly the same slimes as the first title and put them into the same corrals with the same upgrades, feeding them generally the same foods with the same tools and upgrades. What has changed is not for the better - which makes the entire experience transform from a benign copycat into a lackluster example of why the first is plainly superior. [b]Slime Rancher 2[/b] is agonizingly linear - much more than the first game, and the experience often turns into an uncomfortable marathon sprint. Cold - not nearly as cozy. Resources and objectives are much more spread out and distant while the farm feels more sterile than before. The first game could be grindy, especially at the later objectives - but [b]2[/b]’s grind starts early and doesn’t let up. The pacing is very inconsistent. In the first game, levels were connected enough with shortcuts that massive realm-teleporters were introduced later, but here the place is lazy with them. Everything is overindulgent - giving players too much too early, and too little too late. It’s less of a sequel than an overglorified DLC that does very little to expand on the core gameplay loop, in-game content, or end game objectives. It’s not worthy of the “2” - there are some new slimes and items, but they are far from groundbreaking. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3758882304 I got my mom into playing games, and the first [i]Slime Rancher[/i] was a huge part of introducing her. She did more content on her account than I ever did and spent nearly 200 hours in that game. She tried her hand at 2, and after a few hours she moved on. She did not like it. Redeeming factors within are just lifted from the first game. If you never played the first game - you don’t need to bother with this one. If you played the first game - you don’t need to bother with this one. If you’re not really interested in the first game - you don’t need to bother with this one. Between me and my mom, we’ve put nearly [b]300[/b] hours into [i]Slime Rancher[/i], and less than [i]30[/i] in [b]Slime Rancher 2[/b] - and the latter portion of those hours were getting tired of it. You don’t need to bother with this one. ~ [h3]TL;DR[/h3] [b]5/10[/b] [i]Slime Rancher 2[/i] is an [b]Average[/b] game. It doesn’t do enough to expand on what the original title offered, but manages to fumble key aspects that made it a cozy, timeless classic. It’s not an outspokenly bad title - you can certainly have fun with it - but it’s hard to argue if it’s worth anyone’s time when the first game is just as available and does whatever this game can do - but ostensibly better.
Засасываешь слаймов в фиговину, слаймы сбегают, бегаешь за слаймами, они чёто жрут не то, превращаются в чёрный плохих слаймов, короче игра года, не иначе, 10 плортов из 10 Как вторая часть мало отличается от первой, так и мой обзор мало чем отличится. Всё такая же приятная гриндилка, закрыл на все ачивки без особых проблем. Визуально игра стала гораздо лучше первой части: графика очень приятная глазу, пёстрые цвета, а также погода делают игру в разы красивее. Нравится, что как и в первой части, сюжет подают в виде записок, есть такое ощущение загадочности при исследовании локаций, которое особенно проявляется ближе к концу игры в финальных локациях. Если полюбили первую часть, то вторую полюбите ещё больше, однозначно рекомендую! :)
це крута гра, коли я в неї граю я відчуваю себе як Таббі слайм
挺不错的,玩法好,没遇到bug
A sequel very faithful to the original, improved in almost every single way. Introducing a vast new world full of secrets that is fun to explore, new slime species, useful gadgets, upgrades and the soundtrack probably even better than in the first game. Also this time there is more focus on lore and storytelling which is cool. The only thing I didn't like as much is that there are few instances where the game in my opinion does a bit too little in explaining to you how to progress which led to some trial and error that didn't feel particularly rewarding in comparison to other games with this “figure it out on your own” formula. However only one of those instances actually affected the main story, the rest was part of the latest free major update introducing a new island and you shouldn't really be complaining about free stuff. Despite this small flaw, this is a fantastic sequel to a very good game worth the time of anyone who liked the original.
This game is my low cortisol gem and I could not recommend it more to anyone who enjoys a cute, fun, repayable and stunning game with an amazing soundtrack and unique mechanics!!! I always have phases where I play a cozy game for tens of hours and then stop and come back to it maybe a year later, but slime rancher has never been that for me. I played Slime Rancher 1 on PS4 and fell in love, grinding the game to completion and then coming back to tend to my slimes every so often. I started a Slime Rancher 2 playthrough on my PS5 and got quite far for what the game had at the time, but stopped playing due to college. I just purchased my first PC secondhand, and despite having already played a lot of it, Slime Rancher 2 became one of my first purchases simply because of how much I enjoy playing it! Exploration is one of my favorite aspects of the game but there is so much more to do in this one! The Radiant Slime update had not yet come out when I was playing on PS5, so I am very excited to experience that part of the game for the first time as well. All of this is not to mention the AMAZING soundtrack, gorgeous art style that even reminds me of a Cute version of Breath of the Wild (which the exploration also reminds me of), and the ADORABLE slimes that I feel oddly maternal towards! This is a game you can just come back to over and over, easily spending hours caring for your ranch or exploring completely by accident. (Time flies when you're having fun!) As someone with hundreds of hours on Stardew Valley, thousands of hours on The Sims 4 and hundreds of hours on Animal Crossing, Slime Rancher in general still remains my favorite game out of the Cozy Game Sphere, and quite possibly my favorite game ever. :)
Отстой, по сравнению с первой частью - полная скукотища. Дохлые дроны разбросанные по всей карте ваще неинтересныц, сюжет кал, нет новых слаймов, просто бегаешь без цели собираешь ресы. Денги также в этой игры не нужны, прежняя экономическая система в этой игре вообще не уместна. А самое бесячее это какие-то декорации которые сами по себе не нужны но их зачемто пичкают игроку покупать и собирать. всё пока
эти блёбы просто имба вдвойне
If slime rancher was fantastic slime rancher 2 is superior in everything, it has crazy graphics that I personally love with also super cute and interesting additions like the weather, there are slimes with a fantastic concept but I really liked the physics in the slime enclosures and anyway it's really nice that it manages to make me pass the time without realizing it. Really a nice game!
