The whole completionist game concept with fomo really makes me appreciate Deep Rock Galactic and its seasonal pass system. If there is an item in the season pass that you dont unlock, it gets put into the lootpool or in game shop, and they always give you past hats or cosmetics that you get from holiday events next year. I wish more games were like that.
this didn't age well not because they locked players out of previous seasonal content or anything, they just allow players to now access previous seasons, their content and season passes at literally any point so that you can unlock the stuff you missed and want naturally by playing without relying on getting them out of the growing loot pool
My issue with voidling is I have absolutely no reason to even go there in the first place. I wish that all of the survivors had some void based abilities, or at least a few of them had some alt skills based around void. There is a mod called voidcrid that gives a whole set of alt void skills for acrid and it's really cool to see that kind of stuff. I like when the classes have a set of alt skills that go into a different theme or playstyle, especially when it's lunar or void based.
sometimes when i play ror2 id just imagine you commentating the run like you do on your streams and vids and it makes me more consistent lol, love ur stuff man
8:30 looking back at this I love the back to back mention of sots being playtested followed by someone hoping for it to add an alt route, because seemingly only one of those things happened lol (I personally like sots but man could that balance update please come out soon)
I yelled when I saw the quad-ICBM from alloy worship unit, that’s an engineer’s wet dream! Besides bungus, our lord and savior. Eat the bungus. Eat it. Do it. You know you wanna do it. Eat it. Fuse with the bungus. Hold the bungus. Forfeit all mortal limitations and become one with the bungus. Bungus. Bungus.
Do you feel like your runs have been easier or harder with multitude 8? I think it's very cool even if there's no difference because slightly more loot means slightly higher chance of certain builds happening like fmp, but do you think it is balanced?
Not balanced at all, even when I have reduced loot by so much any amount of extra items means the game is easier (when in reasonable player difficulties)
i'm on that same mindset lol, but i still gotta start the eclipse grind i only have railgunner and viend left to get the monsoon skin, and then ill start
His talk about Fiji events and games becoming jobs is why I quit destiny 2 I have over 240 days worth of play time on that game and haven’t touched it since stasis came out and every time I think about getting back into it I realize how much catching up I’ll have to do and just lose motivation
When are you going to add artifacts to eclipse for difficulty, if ever? (Specifically like spite, swarms, honor, etc) The ones that make the game harder.
i think there needs do be more mid/post mithrix bosses that have their own stages. and more item syngergies like isaac, imagine gas made atg apply fire dmg instead or uk
Yeah i’ll be honest i’ve stopped myself from even starting or quit a game or three i’ve really liked because of the whole “aw man sucks you didn’t have my game now you’ll never get this item ever” and it sucks lol.
Disputed origin did the 32p difficulty run. Basically all that spawns is elite boss monsters with tens or hundreds of millions of health at stage 1. You don't have to hide on a rock off the map but you're locked into 1 of 2 playstyles, those being 1) captain with diablo strike/crowbars where you use diablo every 3 minutes to get 1 kill and 2) acrid with poison/guillotines, where you hit an enemy then run for a while so the poison damage can tick down to kill them with guillotine. Basically none of the items except movement speed and crowbar/guillotine are meaningful to stack, which makes the game horribly boring to play since its all just waiting around for enemies to die.
Hello race, id like you to know you ruined my life (just a joke ofcourse), im now extremely addicted to ror2 and have been stuck trying to get gold eclipse medal no lunar for the past month, and its all your fault i hate you (/j) and i hope you a happy new year, also would be intresting to see you play other rougue likes such as (specially) isaac, i feel like you would like it
happy new years chat :)
You too big guy
Happy (late)new year Race!
happy new years!!!
You too man!
Hny

d2 immediately comes to mind as one of the bad ones where you miss out or feel behind
Also Halo Infinite deserves a shout out for allowing you to go back and complete any battle pass ever added to the game
@@flamingscar5263if you pay for them, and as long as they aren’t event passes
this didn't age well

@@CyanPicklethats even better
This mod unironically makes the game way easier thanks to the fact that the director isn't spamming blind pests every second
you don't like it on first stage when it spawns in 9 blind pests in 5 seconds with 2 elites?
@@chriss4855its my favorite 😁
I need to find the man who invented blind pests, he owes a debt to us merc mains
Erm…. Just walk in circles 🤓
Man, I sure do love playing artificer. The directory spawns a horde of blind pests and lesser wisps
Beetle queen being abbreviated as "Been" sounds so cute ^.^
lil been
Holy crap. i love how race just starts talking about promos in games and sees an ignition tank and just goes "ooh"

Lysate is easily one of my favorite void items and I think I've died a little inside with how often you've passed on it in these damn runs lmao
Sorry, I love it too don’t worry
I call dibs on this guys first born.
I'm in your walls.
nuh uh@@bowreed
Heres a challange for you, do 5 player solo BUT you get +1 benthic bloom per stage
Wrong

Fresh merc content is always loved
That DML health melt on Mithrix felt so so good
suprised to see you using faster printers mod, when did you start doing that? or is it only for these solo-multiplayer runs?
When are you going to add artifacts to eclipse for difficulty, if ever? (Specifically like spite, swarms, honor, etc) The ones that make the game harder.
he has done a elite only run
25:33, bro's goin to space
i cant find the mercenary skin used and its making me sad because it looks so cool
is it included in one of the mods listed?
y'know, I wanted to watched this video to get tips on fighting mithrix as merc, and I witness a murder.
i think there needs do be more mid/post mithrix bosses that have their own stages. and more item syngergies like isaac, imagine gas made atg apply fire dmg instead or uk
Agree!
14:15 what are these nodes you speak of?
What was that void purity on commencement?
Happy 2024 to everyone! For a year full of recyclers!
Hasnt this run been posted already? I stg some of the line he says sound and look way too familiar
i am soo bad at merc and bros out here beating 5p difficulty😭 good job
why not play with artifact of evolution to add more challenge so then depending on your luck both the player and enemies can scale.
I already have some videos on that :)
From what mod is that merc skin? Does anyone know?
Yeah i’ll be honest i’ve stopped myself from even starting or quit a game or three i’ve really liked because of the whole “aw man sucks you didn’t have my game now you’ll never get this item ever” and it sucks lol.
Wait since when was purity a void item?!?! 28:05
I don't know, maybe it's a mod?
its a mod that replaces benthic bloom with purity
Is vields worse now? No scavs, less legendary printers on stage 5?
It’s technically more “free” to go check it out since it doesn’t induce the stage scaling bonus
I really need to know from what mod this Merc skin is
I don't know the exact name of it but it's a mod that gives every survivor a commando skin, doubt it'd be too hard to search for
How do you set it to multiple people difficulty?
3:42 "the problem with high difficulties is that i'm intentionally making the game boring"
hey what mod do you use that makes scrappers and 3D printers work at fucking hyper speed
edit: nevermind i got it
28:04 how purity??? that isnt a void item at all
Was that a void purity?
Yes

two feathers?
on a race video?
unreal
After unlocking it mercs secondary special is so much better than evicerate
why does his printers and scrappers so fast
If you want a real challenge just play the switch version pre-dlc update
Boop is goofy af
