Because of this video, the next deeptora enemies will be a big speaker playing maroon 5 that will spawn members of maroon 5 to sing at you until destroyed.
I can imagine an enemy that is all about music and sound. Like get too close and these things would leave a big roar that can either stun or disorientate the dwarves. Like giving them a small period of drunkenness after those things blast into the dwarf's ears.
18:29 i swear Stabbervines give me jumpscares every single damn time. even while im actively shooting at them, every time they stab me i jump from my chair.
When i had my first encounter with those things, I knew what they would do. But I was just never close to them. So I was just tensed up when trying to shoot these things waiting for them to attempt to stab me but never did. Next to the Denotator I would say these plants are some of the scarier things in the game.
update 34 when Steam community mod support comes out: players make a mod that add a psychosis shower scene music to stabber Vines Also player made mods: Give a custom Map where explosive maggots cause mini fat boy explosions
Saaaame they're too fast and get right on your face, plus the rattle sound when they retreat and the abyssal scream they make when you kill them. That biome is amazing.
I would also love to see the variants of the glyphits in those caves Like would they have fins And also wouldn’t you need new weapons to shoot underwater cus a flamethrower underwater doesn’t sound so effective Like imagine harpoon guns and other types of cool underwater weapons
Honestly, even if the biomes are annoying, like fungus bogs or others, they’re still all unique and have their own neat aesthetic, so props to GSG for that
I found them last night for the first time, creepy at first but it's hard to keep finding them creepy when your dwarf wonders if he can eat them after marking it.
In my group of friends I play this with, one of them was talking about the theory that Hoxes is alive and that the bugs are some form of immune response. The wall eyes make me think that theory makes some sense. Also they’re creepy as all hell!
I definitely have a con for Azure Weald: the cave layouts. I still remember the days Molly loved to take the most vertical route through the shafts created by supply pod drops, and in the Weald these huge vertical (or even overhanging) drops are everywhere.
Yes. I've had more pains in my ass than I deserve just from the awful escape pod locations. Azure Weald and Dense Biozone both do this. Even Crystal Caverns to some extend. Even the bog sometimes does it.
It's especially bad in the egg hunt missions, where it seems like every solid surface is some kind of sphere and the floor dips into all these little nooks and crannies.
i love the references in update 33, Hollow Bough is very reminiscent of Dark Bramble from "The Outer Wilds" and the new dreadnought bosses, Arbalest and Lacerator are a transparent reference to Retinazer and Spazmatism (the twins mechanical boss) from terraria
Here's an idea for a biome in DRG: it takes place in the corpse of a huge glyphid that died years ago. If this were added, it would probably be the freakiest biome. There should also be corpse feeders in there. Lots of them.
@@madmonty4761 maybe it would be similar to the ores found in a loot bug? Alot of gold and nitre, little else, although, maybe its a glyphid breeding ground? And thus, no dedicated mining missions but mostly hunting tied missions?
I always viewed Magma Core as the type of zone where dwarves become men. Where you have to go through the Magma core at some point on some of the harder difficulties to get some hair on the dwarven chest. And in some cases it has the most nail biting and intense action sequences you could get in the game. Sandblasted Corridor is actually a favorite of mine. It's very spacious like a desert, it has some veridicality so that really does distinguish itself from other caves, and for someone playing scout it is really satisfying watching your flares fly across the huge cave. Also the explosive spores are my favorite type of vegetation in this game. It's a reusable explosive you can lure enemies into, and find it funny cause seeing those spores fly through the sky makes me think people are putting up an SOS signal. That's my personal amusement. And aaaaahhhhhhh. See I would of love to see the caustic mire to come about, cause I imagine it being the most hostile zone to travel in. Being so dangerous that not only the terrain but also the friendly wildlife would unintentionally try to kill you. But I do like the Hollow Bough as well. Cause the entire zone is like a scene from either Snow White or Cinderella. A cursed forestry area that has these unnatural vines blocking the path. It's like sure I like what we got still, but I did want what was originally promised. Edit: Also love that Reggie quote. Perfect thing to describe why DRG adds what they add.
Hey so about the funny vertical point extraction, you can tell bosco to mine aquarq and he'll even pick up the aquarq and carry them up to you. This also works with fuel cells, mini mule legs, and anything else the dwarves can pick up. Very useful
I remember my first death, an ebonut on the absolute highest place in the glacial strata, the one thing Bosco can't get I think. Also point extraction sucks on strata or weald
@@rangerecho Bosco can't get anything that requires you to immediately put it into your inventory (boolo caps, fossils, apoca blooms and ebonuts) but he also can't break the shell since he has no melee.
@@aaronli8843 precisely why I launched myself all the way up there, figured I would fall slower than the scouts grappling hook needed to recharge. Even tried blasting the thing open.
I just love how every biome feels different, its not just a reskin of a cave it has different things in it, hazards, flora, even the bugs change, its a really nice touch
I actually really like the Magma Core. Having to constantly watch where I step and be very conscious around lava geysers makes it a joy to traverse. I can't just bunnyhop along like any other biome, or I risk taking constant fire damage. I really wish there were more biomes like this, something with difficult terrain that makes me stop and think: how in the hell am I going to get over there with my health in tact?

Dude, I freaking LOVE REZ, it's one of my fav biomes. Plain, easy to see and navigate, not too hazardous and you can easily locate and get rid of worthless glowing crystals.
R.E.Z. is probably my favorite biome tbh. It has such a cool ambiance and I love it. Can one feel “comforted” in a place as hostile to life as the R.E.Z.? Idk but I love taking missions there!
Your DRG videous is just - they are too good. I like how the videos are structured and stylised, yours not straight in the face chill humour and a relaxing voice. Your videos just make me apreciate the game ive played for hundreds of hours even more. Thank you for your content mate, Rock and Stone!
You are not alone! Radioactive zone is my favorite as well! I just think it all looks good, and the radioactive variants are probably my favorite enemies in the game, they just look so much nicer!
rewatching this for like the fourth time and holy shit how did i not notice how smooth and incredible those transitions between biomes are at the end of the intro that’s insane
i remember when me and my friend finally got a mission in hollow, he encountered the stabby vine first and then told me to come check it out. i went up to it and just kinda stared at it confused. then it scared the shit outa me cuz they kinda slowly charge up then hit u at blazing speeds
I actually also adore the Exclusion Zone. It looks awesome and has this toxic aura (as it should). On the other side I have a huge vendetta against Azure Wealds and the Dense Biozone for having the worst verticallity and ruining too many escapes from being unable to climb with glyphids gnawing at your toes.
By the way Point Extraction missions look awesome in Glacial Strata as the Aquarocks make the ice glow blue, making them easy to find but also just really fun to look at.
Amazing work on this series, easily my favourite DRG videos I've ever seen. Really looking forward to your take on something like "The Abilities of Deep Rock Galactic" or something along those lines, all of the classes different utility items and maybe even their grenades. A video on the perk system at some point down the line would be great too. Keep at it, I think if you continue making these videos on the different aspects of the game you'll have made the most comprehensive, organised and charming guide of the game as a whole that any dwarf could ask for, no matter if they're a greenbeard or a greybeard. Rock and stone!
I somehow only just noticed the swarmers in radioactive exclusion zone have a faint green glow to them. I like that touch a lot. And it actually made me use less light once when they herded me just to get a good view of them all just crawling towards me from the dark. That kinda shit is too fucking cool to not deserve a round in the abyss bar. Hats off to you ghostship.
Sniss ignoring the Loot Hoarder in Glacial Strata instead of abandoning the review and unloading an ungodly amount of ammo only for it to disappear because it’s an asshole... That got me.
Whenever you mine bio material, the dig size is bigger. Whether it's the goo that encases eggs, the blue caccoon strands, or the material in the dense biozone.
Pretty sure the wall eyes in crystalline caverns are because geographically it takes place near the exclusion zone. So maybe the radiation is mutating fungi or lichen in the walls. It can also explain the electrical crystals being so charged
Hollow Bough is my favourite biome, the vines are just so fucking cool. Stabber vines are like shit-your-pants scary the first time, and I absoultely *adore* their wooden creaking and groaning while they move. Also seems like they re-used their stabby boi AI for the robotic appendages (which I really hope they rename because damn is that lame)
Sandblasted Corridors is probably my favorite biome in terms of raw gameplay(Azure Weald wins on aesthetics obviously), but that's probably because I main Scout. The open caverns, high visibility, and one-hit terrain perfectly suit Scout's playstyle of long-range combat and mobility.
i think exactly the same about radioactive exclusion zone, there's definitely prettier and funnier biomes to play, but i love this one and you're not alone, it's my favorite too
I, too, like the Radioactive Exclusion Zone for a lot of the same reasons you posted. I like that Green/grey palette. What I like about the radioactive spike hazards is that they're harmful, but manageable. You can take them out quickly if you have he shields and health pools, but it's something that can prove deadly if you're caught between them during a fight.
REZ is by far the comfiest biome, personally speaking. Something about it just makes me feel at ease, might even be that ambient hum you talked about that i never consciously noticed before. The caves there feel less claustrophobic, i love petting my breathers and cave vines, even the dust and rain are comfy. The radioactive crystals are easily dealt with.
Such amazing diversity really sells how *awesomely weird* this planet is. It makes me really wonder what other secrets might be out there on this trainwreck of a planet where everything that can go wrong with a planet has happened tenfold. Tidally locked, radiation storms - and for some reason, *ghosts*. The map honestly doesn't do it justice, just being a grid of cutout shapes - hope one day they revisit it and we get something like a layered globe. The diverse surface biomes, the equator that we see are the Sandblasted Corridors, and the mantle that is the Glacial Strata followed by the outer core that is Magma Core. (And an ominous, swirling darkness at the very center of that world - definitely where whatever's making all those eggs lives, and where Karl most certainly made his legacy.)
After watching several of your videos I've come to just adore you. You're talking about one of my newly favorite games and your humor and voice are just perfect. So very glad youtube recommended you to me.
Radioactive Exclusion Zone is by far my favourite biome, color palette is indeed very noice and I personally like the uranium crystals, they're far prettier than they are dangerous. Also radioactive enemy variants add a really cool change in combat, they require you to find new ways to take them out and play around their deadly radiation. To be honest I'm surprised my dwarf hasn't grown a 3rd arm yet or something.
Loved the whole video man, loved the little Reggie edit and the last bit with Maroon was great. I can tell how much love and dedication you put into these videos 😁
Just gonna say, I also love Rad Zone, Green and Grey just work well I hope they plan to introduce more going forward, the biomes are a solid 50% of the game's atmosphere, as someone with nearly 2K hours, I am beyond astonished at what they've accomplished.
with the two new biomes i realized how much a biome can add to the game, and with how many mission types there are now there is just so much to explore
Id like to see a cave that forces us to go outside which would be gated by an O2 gathering event of some kind. Maybe the escape pod lands outside for some reason. Id also like to see more done with beer, maybe have rare recipes that give buffs like the daily specials.
i just thought, what if there was a survival mode of drg, where you play as carl, trying to survive underground, no hopes of escape, and you eventually dig your way to the surface, managing to get attention of the drg team, finally reuniting the group once again
I’d say my favorite biome is sandblasted corridors. It seems to have a high bulk detonator spawn chance and I also love the tunneling creatures. Although I think your complaints with the biome are also very valid.
Can I make a small recommendation? You talk about creatures, plants and things a lot while saying a lot about their sound effects and actions but you rarely put those sound effects in the video! I would have loved to hear all of the things you’re describing
Idk about you all, but I love the fungus bogs. I think my favorite things are the steam geysers because they are very useful ti get up high and they can save you from a long fall. Also, MUSHROOM!
My favorite biome is Sandblasted Corridors for the massive open caverns and the desolation. I play solo a lot and I love the loneliness you get from places like this. Hell, deserts and wastelands are always my favorite environment to tame. My favorite mission I've ever been on was the old Search and Extract on Sandblasted Corridors. The cave was so large that my flare gun firing at the ceiling was worthless. I was with one other person, an engineer, and we spent a good hour and a half in that cave. But fuck Magma Core. One assignment required me to do an escort on that biome and I legit waited 30 minutes for the mission list to change.
Also in Glacial Strata, you can use the Digger's flamethrower to melt snow and terrain. It's not more effective than digging and chews up ammo but I thought it was a neat detail.
another note on why the Radioactive Exclusion Zone's Praetorians are so hard to deal with: their radioactive attack is AoE, as opposed to the normal and frost variants being a stream. so, flanking/circle strafing is much less effective.
Sniss secretly LOVES one or two songs by Maroon 5. I've recognized this same kind of projection before.. from myself! 😅 Edit: the 3 hit terrain in the radioactive exclusion zone makes a sort of sense, as there's uranium everywhere, and that stuff is very dense! I like that detail
I am very happy with the variety of biomes. Azure Weald and Hollow Bough were great additions to the game. There are biome exclusive enemies, but I wonder if there will be biome exclusive bosses. All the bosses in-game are available in each biome. I think it'd be great to see wall-eyes pop out of the terrain with a physical body to chase, or perhaps the mouthbreathers climbing out of the ground with rugged bodies (to justify my mistrust of them). This video was really well put together! My favourite part is the continuously shifting camera that cuts into each biome's shot with the tall physical barriers creating the strong transitions. You highlighted each biome really well and I learned something new (Dense Biozone's larger digging holes). Rock and stone!
the concept of biome exclusive bosses was something i thought would be really neat in elimination missions. like a giant sandworm in sandblasted or something, idk.
Biomes are just different flavors of rocks and stones to eat.

And it actually made me use less light once when they herded me just to get a good view of them all just crawling towards me from the dark.
That kinda shit is too fucking cool to not deserve a round in the abyss bar. Hats off to you ghostship.
My friends and I call the breathers pog plants, and we went nuts when we learned that you can pet them
Your content is top notch man, great to see another upload from you and hope you continue to make these amazing videos about one of my favorite games.
I loooove the presentation of these videos. It's very sleek and clean looking. You've got my sub
Sniss ignoring the Loot Hoarder in Glacial Strata instead of abandoning the review and unloading an ungodly amount of ammo only for it to disappear because it’s an asshole... That got me.
Nice work! Always super high quality. Lots of amazing editing.
Whenever you mine bio material, the dig size is bigger. Whether it's the goo that encases eggs, the blue caccoon strands, or the material in the dense biozone.
That's so fucking cool
Pretty sure the wall eyes in crystalline caverns are because geographically it takes place near the exclusion zone. So maybe the radiation is mutating fungi or lichen in the walls. It can also explain the electrical crystals being so charged
Hollow Bough is my favourite biome, the vines are just so fucking cool.
Stabber vines are like shit-your-pants scary the first time, and I absoultely *adore* their wooden creaking and groaning while they move.
Also seems like they re-used their stabby boi AI for the robotic appendages (which I really hope they rename because damn is that lame)
Sandblasted Corridors is probably my favorite biome in terms of raw gameplay(Azure Weald wins on aesthetics obviously), but that's probably because I main Scout. The open caverns, high visibility, and one-hit terrain perfectly suit Scout's playstyle of long-range combat and mobility.
Bro what about the goddamn sand sharks 👎👎👎 i want a game modifier with double the trollers so i can cry
I love the unique voice lines for petting the Cave Vine.
And yes, you can pet them, you just can't see the "(E) PET" prompt.
i think exactly the same about radioactive exclusion zone, there's definitely prettier and funnier biomes to play, but i love this one and you're not alone, it's my favorite too
I, too, like the Radioactive Exclusion Zone for a lot of the same reasons you posted. I like that Green/grey palette. What I like about the radioactive spike hazards is that they're harmful, but manageable. You can take them out quickly if you have he shields and health pools, but it's something that can prove deadly if you're caught between them during a fight.
PS I really like how you did the red vine transition when talking about Hollow Bough at 18:01 .
Its cool that the dirt is permafrost in Glacial Strata and possibly "sawdust" in the Hollow Bough
REZ is by far the comfiest biome, personally speaking. Something about it just makes me feel at ease, might even be that ambient hum you talked about that i never consciously noticed before. The caves there feel less claustrophobic, i love petting my breathers and cave vines, even the dust and rain are comfy. The radioactive crystals are easily dealt with.
It wasn’t until your comment on fungus bogs being “soggy” that I never thought of how gross it must be in that area. Hot sweaty mushroomy smelling air
I imagine the "common rock" is more akin to soil/dirt than actual rocks and stones
Man I’m loving your content it’s really high quality! Keep up the good work
Such amazing diversity really sells how *awesomely weird* this planet is. It makes me really wonder what other secrets might be out there on this trainwreck of a planet where everything that can go wrong with a planet has happened tenfold. Tidally locked, radiation storms - and for some reason, *ghosts*. The map honestly doesn't do it justice, just being a grid of cutout shapes - hope one day they revisit it and we get something like a layered globe. The diverse surface biomes, the equator that we see are the Sandblasted Corridors, and the mantle that is the Glacial Strata followed by the outer core that is Magma Core. (And an ominous, swirling darkness at the very center of that world - definitely where whatever's making all those eggs lives, and where Karl most certainly made his legacy.)
Story/ lore of DRG next? :o
i want GSG to add more :(
After watching several of your videos I've come to just adore you. You're talking about one of my newly favorite games and your humor and voice are just perfect. So very glad youtube recommended you to me.
Radioactive Exclusion Zone is by far my favourite biome, color palette is indeed very noice and I personally like the uranium crystals, they're far prettier than they are dangerous. Also radioactive enemy variants add a really cool change in combat, they require you to find new ways to take them out and play around their deadly radiation. To be honest I'm surprised my dwarf hasn't grown a 3rd arm yet or something.
yooo glad im not the only one. it really is one of the coolest environments in the game
Also i love your deep dives into the different aspects of DRG. You do such a good job, i always look forwsrd to your videos haha
his editing style is so nice
Loved the whole video man, loved the little Reggie edit and the last bit with Maroon was great.
I can tell how much love and dedication you put into these videos 😁
Just gonna say, I also love Rad Zone, Green and Grey just work well
I hope they plan to introduce more going forward, the biomes are a solid 50% of the game's atmosphere, as someone with nearly 2K hours, I am beyond astonished at what they've accomplished.
with the two new biomes i realized how much a biome can add to the game, and with how many mission types there are now there is just so much to explore
Id like to see a cave that forces us to go outside which would be gated by an O2 gathering event of some kind. Maybe the escape pod lands outside for some reason.
Id also like to see more done with beer, maybe have rare recipes that give buffs like the daily specials.
Have been watching your drg videos and really enjoying them. Keep up the good work 👍
I'm glad someone else appreciates the radioactive exclusion zone.
i just thought, what if there was a survival mode of drg, where you play as carl, trying to survive underground, no hopes of escape, and you eventually dig your way to the surface, managing to get attention of the drg team, finally reuniting the group once again
I’d say my favorite biome is sandblasted corridors. It seems to have a high bulk detonator spawn chance and I also love the tunneling creatures. Although I think your complaints with the biome are also very valid.
Maroon 5 just in time for the Hoxxes Bubble Bowl.
you can jump off a shellback youngling's roll attack, pretty funny and gives the feel of damage surfing from tf2
I love your videos man they make me appreciate the details of the game besides just the gameplay. Could make an amazing film about the game I reckon
Can I make a small recommendation? You talk about creatures, plants and things a lot while saying a lot about their sound effects and actions but you rarely put those sound effects in the video! I would have loved to hear all of the things you’re describing
Idk about you all, but I love the fungus bogs. I think my favorite things are the steam geysers because they are very useful ti get up high and they can save you from a long fall. Also, MUSHROOM!
I know of a place far scarier than Hoxxes could wish to be...
*Detroit*
My favorite biome is Sandblasted Corridors for the massive open caverns and the desolation. I play solo a lot and I love the loneliness you get from places like this. Hell, deserts and wastelands are always my favorite environment to tame.
My favorite mission I've ever been on was the old Search and Extract on Sandblasted Corridors. The cave was so large that my flare gun firing at the ceiling was worthless. I was with one other person, an engineer, and we spent a good hour and a half in that cave.
But fuck Magma Core. One assignment required me to do an escort on that biome and I legit waited 30 minutes for the mission list to change.
Also in Glacial Strata, you can use the Digger's flamethrower to melt snow and terrain.
It's not more effective than digging and chews up ammo but I thought it was a neat detail.
you really wanted to flex that jump at 10:45 i can respect that.
i really did want to flex that jump
The first time I got attacked by one of those "Knife Vines" it scared me so bad I actually yelled
another note on why the Radioactive Exclusion Zone's Praetorians are so hard to deal with: their radioactive attack is AoE, as opposed to the normal and frost variants being a stream. so, flanking/circle strafing is much less effective.
They are also faster
“There is goo in the sack!”
Sniss secretly LOVES one or two songs by Maroon 5.
I've recognized this same kind of projection before.. from myself! 😅
Edit: the 3 hit terrain in the radioactive exclusion zone makes a sort of sense, as there's uranium everywhere, and that stuff is very dense! I like that detail
I surprisingly find the glacial zone the most beautiful biome in the game. Those smooth ice caverns never get old
Another top notch video my friend, keep up the good work!
The Radioactive Exclusion Zone reminds me of Fallout 3 for the color pallet. I cannot get that out of my head I’m sorry.
Just got this game and I’m already rank 35. Love the game and your content is the best
thanks! glad you enjoy it
Hey man, I love your editing and narration style keep it up
You are not alone in the Radioactive Exclusion Zone being a favorite, I love it too.
I am very happy with the variety of biomes. Azure Weald and Hollow Bough were great additions to the game. There are biome exclusive enemies, but I wonder if there will be biome exclusive bosses. All the bosses in-game are available in each biome. I think it'd be great to see wall-eyes pop out of the terrain with a physical body to chase, or perhaps the mouthbreathers climbing out of the ground with rugged bodies (to justify my mistrust of them).
This video was really well put together! My favourite part is the continuously shifting camera that cuts into each biome's shot with the tall physical barriers creating the strong transitions. You highlighted each biome really well and I learned something new (Dense Biozone's larger digging holes).
Rock and stone!
the concept of biome exclusive bosses was something i thought would be really neat in elimination missions. like a giant sandworm in sandblasted or something, idk.
@@sniss That'd really shake up the elimination missions. I appreciate the new Dreadnaughts, but that would be an extra level to it.
