I was looking at my playtime for some games and realized I have over 450 hours in PlanetSide 2.

I've been wanting to find a new game to sink some hours into so I'm curious what Lemmy plays the most.

I really enjoyed Risk of Rain 1 but I don't get why people like Risk of Rain 2. They completely changed the game and it plays like shit. Is it only possible to like it if you didn't play the first one?

I only played RoR 2 and i never understood RoR 1.

Maybe you're right - two different audiences?

I really did not enjoy Risk of Rain, RoR2 however I played many hours of.

I played RoR1 first, years before 2 was even announced. I still like RoR2. It's been better and worse with different updates, it's definitely a lot worse with the DLC and much better with certain mods. Both games are kinda broken and unpolished under the surface, they're really not so different

I haven't played RoR1, but loved RoR2, but I also tend to prefer 3d games over 2d. I haven't played since the latest xpac, so I don't know if they fixed the things they broke or not.

Totally agree - RoR is one of my all time favorites. Its strategic elegance and style just didn't survive the translation to 3D

[-] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 5 months ago

I played the first one when it came out and I still liked the second.

[-] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

I played RoR1 a couple years after release, RoR2 on release, and RoRR on release. I still like 1/Returns better than 2, but I like 2 as well. They are honestly pretty similar in gameplay, but I think the 2d style leaves a lot more room for boss moveset creativity.
