Risk of Rain 2

Very good 3d rogue lite game. I found it through reddit and I am so glad i bought this when i did. Also, devs pls add crossplay between consoles and pc x'D

Funny number go one shot 10/10

just be sure to meet new people for you to play with since the one who would give the game to you would not play the game once you enjoy it :) Wait I was the friend who gifted and that person I gifted to did not play the game

Commando.

One of my favorite games, I love the aspect of collecting items around the map and becoming stronger and stronger per stage AS the monsters also get stronger. I like how simple and easy it is to pick up and just hop into a game. Def very fun to play with a full team of 4!! :) I've gotten a few of my friends into this game, and I'd keep suggesting it to others! I have already 400+ hours played, I cant wait until they think of making the next one... Risk of Rain 3 lol

So they update the game, they break the game, they break the mods, they break the community's trust and enthusiasm for a game that had no updates for years and they sell a mediocre dlc. I looooove gearbox!

Allow us to downgrade the game version before sots for god's sake.

Do not buy this game until they change the terms of use. It has very concerning privacy terms. Boycott all the games under Take-Two Interactive.

Fuck Take-Two and its shitty practices. First a rushed DLC release, now a downright comical EULA upgrade saying things like they own content made with RoR2, or that you can't use or even discuss mods. No hard feelings towards Hopoo as they wanted to move on, but the result was the unlucky situation game ended up in.

this game was amazing before the newest seekers of the storm update, I put over 100 hours into it. however because of the new update I lost all my game progress, all of my items I unlocked the characters I had too all gone. not only that the game runs super bad now too couldn't even get a loop in before the game started to break, and unfortunately I have a very good computer so gearbox ruined the optimization. for whatever reason gearbox changed the void to the point where it's impossible to do alone or on a character that has low movement. I cannot recommend this game to anyone in it's current condition.

This game and its soundtrack is proof God is still with us and loves us

A few years ago this game was super great. Then gearbox got their hands on it. Even excluding the awful DLC they put out, they changed (and broke) the base game to such a point where its just horrible. Can't recommend unless you have a time machine or something.

This game is amazing and has a cool atmosphere, When you first start its really fun to start learning about all the items and what they do although it was pretty hard to remember what everything does because there is so many items, I would recommend downloading a description mod for the items. The issue I have with this game is the lack of content really, Not too many characters and usually its not worth unlocking the newer abilities because they are just a straight downgrade, exp. acrid 2nd primary change to blight instead of poison( its a complete downgrade). I really wish more abilities/weapons were added to the characters and not make them have huge downgrades on them, after awhile the content just gets boring because of that lack of choice.

This game aged like a fine wine and then someone opened the barrel and took a big shit in it. Their name starts with g and ends with earbox.

It is absolute and utter bullshit that I cannot play a game I have 500 hours on without logging into the epic games store.

10/5, the best game I've played in my entire life which makes me more happy when i win, and mad when i lose then this game, just as a idea for risk of rain 3 *if they make one* make more chest spawn.

game fun, but then gearbox bought it and the games still fun, but less so now, doesn't live to the hype anymore (modded ror2 is still very good I'm told)

Goated soundtrack
Goated boss fights
Goated characters
Goated game fr

There aren't that many 3D action roguelike games out there. This one is fun and feels fair, with good meta progression through unlocking new survivors, a couple abilities for each new survivor, alt skins, and new items. There are also plenty of secrets to be found by exploring and experimenting. Buy this on sale with both of its DLC packs. At time of writing that is $25 USD which is a great price for this game and bundle.

Survivors are varied enough that each one feels different. SkillUp posted a video review on Youtube a long time ago that convinced me to buy the game originally. I wish I had known that parts of that review are outdated, like the fact that enemies come to you. There aren't that many enemies early on and I feel like I am mostly hunting them down before giving up on finding more and progressing to the next stage.

I recommend getting mods, which are very easily installed and managed by r2modman. I use one for auto sprinting and for better tooltips and item explanations in game.

The music is 10/10.

Wasn't really my thing. Difficult with no sense of progression, and no clear direction. The gameplay itself was king of fun, but got old fast. Maybe I'm just bad, but didn't enjoy it enough to put in the time to get good.

I can literally spend eternity in a single run and do a hundred stages without complain. Very fun game! ♥

New update has made Void fields near unplayable unless you have a VERY high mobility build. I hate Gear box so much. They keep breaking things that are already fine.

This game has received a lot of bad publicity over the last couple of months due to the Seekers of the Storm DLC that was launched way before it was ever ready, but if you're new to the game, I'd still highly recommend playing Risk of Rain. Before the DLC, it was one of my all time favorite games ever; in fact I think it's one of the best rogue-like games I've ever played.
It's been a few months into the bug-fixing and whatnot, and at the time of writing I think the game is about as stable as it was pre-DLC (with maybe a few more enemies clipping through walls). The original content and fun-factor is still there for new players, and survivors of the void is still a solid DLC for those who want to play more. If you get super into it like I have been, I still wouldn't purchase the seekers of the storm DLC just because they are going to be updating the added survivors and they'll probably continue to re-balance and re-work items since the game is still a bit too easy with seekers items enabled; give it a couple more months and wait for it to be fully baked, and in the mean-time there's still a whole lot of content to enjoy if you're a new player. The base game comes with almost every survivor (except for 5 spread across 2 DLCs), and they're all exceptionally fun to play. Base-game items and difficulty is generally very challenging; especially when you're a new player, it can be difficult to understand how to most effectively deal damage and heal but playing usually makes you get into the hang of it, and if you really want to get into the nuts and bolts of how to play well and beat higher difficulties (Eclipse 8), you can just look at the wiki to read about proc coefficients (basically the chance to proctor a chance based item off of an attack), but none of that is at all necessary to enjoy the fun of the game.
Anyways, play Risk of Rain! It's cool and neat and I've sunk 400 hours into it so I'm pretty sure you'll get enough content to justify the money you'll spend on it!

you know a game is good when you think about it when not playing. When I'm at work I listen to the soundtrack, while I'm in the bath I think of the characters and how to use them, when I play other games I think of risk of rain 2. I am not a huge fan of rouge likes however ROR2 is keeping me engaged and it is a amazing game to play with friends and partners. I love the way it makes me feel, from the hype of pulling off a teleporter event at low HP, to the 7th "one more run" at 5 AM after getting no sleep the night before, I have enjoyed every second of my time playing. This game has a great modding community that can add a ton of content if the large amounts already isn't enough

I have noticed bugs though, some minor and others lead to a lost run however I wouldn't let it detour you from enjoying the game as there is always a Risk...



of rain 2 :3

recently its trying to make me pair it with an epic account and i cant play songle player. i dont want that piece of shit epic launcher on my computer cause it just stays on my computer even if i delete it, so if anyone has any way of making the game work again im all for it

One of the best designed roguelikes I've played. Infinite hours of enjoyment by trying out different builds. The art style is unique, and the music is the most captivating thing about this game. The adrenaline while playing this game at high difficulties with friends is unmatched.

not sure why I have not made a review for this masterpiece yet but the amount of hours I have played should say it all. I am still a ways a way from 100% the game, and this is how many hours in it took for me to find vanilla stale and start trying mods.

Seriously a gem and should be played by everyone and preferably without knowing anything about the game, I wish I could experience it all for the first time again.

Also I listen to this OST regularly outside of playing the game, Chris Christodolou is a legend.

10/10

Amazing gameplay!

First time i'm enjoy playing this game and try hard to get all achievement ASAP. Every character/class have each has its own advantages, and then we can build whatever we want. DLC This game so good, especially Survivors of the Void (we can learn every step in this dlc and hard but happy (u should try diff moonson)). Thank you Hopoo Games and Gearbox Publishing, i'm looking forward to the next game like this :3!

9.3/10 for this game!

It is so fun to grind and when you beat the game for the first time, it feels like you accomplished everything you ever wanted to do in life.

Haven't played too much but the few times I have I thoroughly enjoyed. It is a nice change of pace from "turn your brain off and just run," style games. On the other hand, working towards getting better power ups to go to the end Bosses gives a end goal mindset.. With friends this game definitely creates a team mentality but doesn't create pressure to "Beat the game," personally making it more fun. Great sit back and see what happens game play and no harm no foul if you get reset.

Really fun to play and get lots of items. Modding is top-tier as well for when you conquer base game

fun, can play for more than 5 years without getting bored

fun Roguelike, but it starts lagging after some time

TLDR edit: Gearbox made the game literally unplayable for me :)

If you are looking for a similar game in a less questionable state and don't mind the fact that it's a sidescroller, get Returns instead.

gearbox took what was great and good about this game and basically told us we were wrong for loving it. They then broke the game, and have been "hard at work" fixing it. They ruined something they did not make and expect us to thank them for it.

this went from being a game i'd replay constantly from 2020-2023 to being a game i haven't touched since the month after seekers released
genuinely cannot recommend it in its current state, gearbox softies did it again

Risk of Rain 2 is a fraction of what the first game was and they've already released multiple DLC's.
The overall content in comparison to what they are asking for it is just absurd. So while we wait for what deserves to be a free update; they work on ways to take your money without earning it :)

can be really devestating when you die since you often lose so much so i wouldnt reccomend it for people who dont like roguelites but for roguelite enthusiasts like me this is imo a definite must have

What i would consider my favorite game of all time, due to sheer replayablility and the ability to spiral out of control into basic godhood. after gearbox took over i will admit they shit the bed a little cuz i cant even play the damn game without verifying the integrity of the files. but i will forever love this blood pressure simulator.

Fun Game, highly recommend. Especially if it's on sale

I bought this game in hopes of getting it to play with my friend but we never got around to it. From my playtime it's a good singleplayer experience. Though eventually I got bored of slaying the same horde of enemies over and over again.

This game is a masterpiece. Characters are unique and offer a great build variety. Items have an actual impact on the game. The OST is incredible. And the achievement progress method has you coming back for more.

honestly pretty fun except the time the downpour occurred. I like it though

can't decide if i should play modded or vanilla cuz modded adds LOTS of replaybility to the game

STILL A GOOD GAME NONETHELESS

Fast-paced, and fun action once you get used to the flow of the game and get yourself familiar with the items. One of my personal favorite games. OST also slaps so hard.

The true endgame of this game is to crash your game.
The funny numbers in the mid-game was just the start of it.
and the music, goddamn

57/10

If you like rougelikes and games of that nature i highly recommend the game. The story told like how other games are ex: Hades 1@ 2. But that doesn't take away from the game at all. ive been having alot of fun and it feels rewarding to unlock characters and do challanges.

My only problems i had are. My settings going back to default when i didnt touch then. My 2nd porblem was my save file corrupting, I have no idea what caused it. When i loged back on i had to make a new save file and had to conntect the game to my Epic account. Other than that i havent had much problems, 9/10

游戏不错，就是地图太烂了。
从前我玩 Code Vein，觉得白血教堂有点绕；之后我玩 NioH 系列，觉得地图容易迷路；后来我玩卧龙，地图如同带迷彩，令人感觉不同关卡都差不多；如今我玩了 RoR2，才见识到了什么真正的米共图。

One of the best roguelikes to exist. All of the characters have fun abilities and I appreciate that the developers continue to update the game after 4.5 years.

Don't let this game's flashy exterior fool you - at the end of the day, Risk of Rain 2 brings nothing new to the table. The exponentially increasing health/damage numbers, enemies on screen, and proccing effects will fool you into a sense of progress, and a drip feed of knowledge through time-wasting repetition will make you think you're honing your skills, but with time the fraud will become evident. This game is sloppier than Bubsy 3D in its systems, and uses 'difficulty' and 'complexity' to mask it. The music is good however.

Hands down one of the best Roguelike, the difficult is also crazy.

i really recommend this game

I feel that this game is one of my 10 best games ever, not only for simple-yet so variative gameplay, but for the deepness and style and of course - soundtrack. Amazing composition of all game elements. Enjoy every run.
