I love EtG but it's far from Flawless.

Maybe I don't know how to manage my ammo but I'm always scared to use my guns because I feel I run out of ammo really fast and I don't get ammo drops and shops don't always have ammo for sale.

Going to the Abbey of the True Gun seems like a waste compared to the Oubliette, the boss is actually hard which I like but he has a lot of HP and doesn't drop anything special. I've only beat it once and it was during a blessed run.

I'm still kinda new to the game with only 20 or so hours and I haven't even beat a past yet though, I'm not very good.

Naw shits to easy and kinda badly designed.

I really wish the dodge roll wasnt in the game since all it does is low down the gameplay for me and that final chamber boss is completly super underwhelming and the easiest of all the fucking bosses.

"Beat" the game on my fourth run as the hunter but then really beat with all the characters and i got to say the the killing your past parts is actually the most fun parts if the game since how the game mechanics work i feel tjat the gam would be better if it were more designed to be like those final scenarios.

Also kinda of a nitpick but i kinda hate the manual reloading. I get thst its part of the balancing for weapons but its annoying to have to get to used ti them all especially when one finds a new weapon and one has to waste ammo to try it ou to figure out what it does and how it works.


That end credits music be pretty bumbin though.

Spelunky is great for what it is but I got sick of it after like 30 hours. I just couldn't git gud enough to become consistent at it. Isaac for example I can win pretty much every run but spelunky I can barely make it past the caves some days. And I wasn't even particularly shit at the game. I can consistently whip arrows and rob shopkeepers and I got speedlunky.

God hand controls flawlessly though. The combat and movement flows. The only problem with that game is the offscreen charged kicks that happen all the time in DIE! difficulty which turns the game into a drag.

>Most of the guns feel weak and aren't fun to use, not to mention most are just reskins.
>The first couple levels of the game are extremely boring and tedious to play through.
>The accuracy on three out of four characters makes your character feel retarded
>The incredibly slow movement speed could be improved
>And so on, and so on

This game is far from flawless and if any of the above fixes were implemented, it'd be a much better, better game.

This is true for most of the games here. By considering these titled flawless, you're holding them back and praising talentless, lazy hacks as geniuses.

Also "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is a meme created by people who wish to disadvantage the superior by comforting the inferior.

>>337717772
La-mulana, Warioland 4, Ghost Trick, Legend of Grimrock 2, etc. Not to say they're flawless or anything

I am shocked how many Game Maker games are in the topic.

Well it's not finished yet, full release is June 2nd so no need to hurry.

But so far it's easily the best and deepest top-down shooter I've ever played. Pretty big loadout selection and nice mechanics, though the learning curve can be kinda steep. Though I suspect if you don't enjoy the base shooting/driving mechanics you're not gonna get much out of it, even with the story missions.

Graphics and soundtrack are pretty good too.
And so is the audiobook, at least what I've heard of it so far.

dog seems useless as fuck unless you have high luck, which you need good actual luck to even get items and opportunities to increase your luck in the first place. I've played hunter several times, getting as far as Hollow multiple times and so far, I have ever seen the dog find something once and it was just half a heart. It's a passive item so it's not like having it hurts you at all but as a starting item, it's not nearly as useful as it sounds.

I don't know anymore.Video games are terrible.

I really like the idea of Gungeon, and bosses like the Beholster are fun ideas, but goddamn.
>game all about guns
>90% of the guns are boring as hell
>most rooms are boring, no excuse since the rooms themselves aren't randomly generated
>my friend always wants to play the pilot who is the faggiest-looking character

Okay the last one is just a personal thing but how can a game all about shooting be so limp?

>but I see Chuclefucks in /v/ more often that you think
I'm 99% sure they're just shitposting

Gungeon is a bag of shit

>Terrible pacing, first floor takes a lot longer than it should
>200 lolsorandum weapons,90% are reskinned pistols
>most items are shit, synergies are far between. A lot of A or S class weapons feel unbelievably weak
>Music is wank
>HP scaling means a basic bulletkin takes 2-3 clips on the later levels
>Loads of fun events/rooms that you will probably never see (glitched chests, door lord, mirrors, shrines)

There's a good game under there somewhere but it seems the devs 'balanced' the game so hard they made it a tedious pile of shit

>wanna play as the Cultist
>lol nope only in co-op

I agree, while I like some guns ray type of gun are by far the best because the dps.

Another thing I hate about this game is how cases and credits fall off cliffs so you do not want to kill enemies arround pits and bosses rewards can be lost

After years of updates this is one extremly polished piece of competetive and unique vidya. Escpecially for the price.

Too bad the playerbase has evolve-tier numbers.

I played so much NS1 but was scared away from NS2 because of the reported performance issues, which I understand have been largely improved.

Also the smaller playerbase worries me because I was never actually good at the game. I tried to support my team but never went for high-res organisms.

>>337723728
the res pool is individual now mate

>>337717501
Overpriced though. I got the first for $5 and still feel ripped off. They should have put all 3 games in one and sold it for $30, given the content the first two have so far

>Make the first floor smaller, guaranteed gun before the first boss
>More mobs and bullets but with less hp so your guns don't feel like shit
>More ammo drops
>Higher % chance of fun things like shrines, unique npcs etc
>More fun items and synergies that feel like they actually influence your character. Ammolets and table top items can fuck right off
>Tweeks to damage taken to keep the difficulty consistent

Game fixd
