Vampire Survivors is a 2022 roguelike shoot 'em up video game developed and published by Luca Galante, also known as poncle. The player controls an automatically attacking character while fighting against continuous waves of monsters, with the goal being to survive the onslaught for as long as possible and unlock additional characters, weapons, and relics for subsequent sessions. In spite of the game's name and key art, none of the variety of monsters encountered are vampires.
Vampire Survivors received accolades at the Golden Joystick Awards, New York Game Awards and D.I.C.E. Awards. The game was nominated in five categories at the British Academy Games Awards, of which it won in two: Game Design and Best Game.

"This game looks terrible."
*1 hour later*
"YES. GIMME MORE GARLIC."
The real Vampire Survivors experience right there.
Garlic is great. No, it's not optimal, but it feels good.
@@DamnDaimenI think thw exact poinr of the game I started being good at the game is when I gave up on garlic 😅
@@zets8238 I will never give up on garlic. Soul eater is my bae and nothing else can replace her. I mean, what other weapon gets stronger the more damage you take until you become untouchable?
Garlic is awesome and I’ll love it forever. That + bible can force enemies away really well
Also clipping out the tower with Infernas is so fun. 10/10 game
I played this for 139 hours and 6 minutes. And it costs £2, ok maybe £4 with the DLC. Co-op multiplayer is on the way. This developer is just brilliant.
Multiplayer? Hell yes!
Can I see less than nothing in multiplayer and get more seizure? :D
@@rubygraves978 isn't that the point?
The developer used to design casino games. Serotonin overload. It truly show when you get level-ups
Welp the $2 didnt last long, its already $4.99 now
When I watch Kevin play, I often feel forced to play games I didn't want to play. And then I get addicted. This is payback, Kevin.
I really like roguelikes but haven't played this yet just because of time and stuff but I have been meaning to play this eventually so maybe I'll finally try when I get the chance!🤣
Same. Cities skylines, I'm looking at you
Just wait until this game becomes his main content, like among us did.
[Insert random comment just to get a high spot to replies]
it's SO fun!
You can really see how many gaming instinct are learned rather than innate in this video: Him not trying to collect exp, not moving into positions to better take advantage of his weapons, acting scared rather than taking advantage when his garlic was pretty much killing mobs on contact.
I know I was screaming when he ran from the ghosts that his garlic one shot into the other mobs xD
He is equally terrible and infuriating at pretty much every game
Well as far as taking advantage of the weapon, I said to myself at the end that he was better off at the bottom cause the whip attacks slightly above you.
That's why we like him 😂
i won second try in mad forest and i barely knew what the game was
The Forest does have the problem of basically being a damage gate at 10 minutes, either you're strong enough to breeze through things at that point or you die.
Numbers going up is great for my lizard brain through, it hits perfectly.
The first time you beat the forest though is absolutely magical. And then the true Vampire Survivors begins.
@@mdstevens0612 The secret area in the disco bonus area was crazy. you keep unlocking more game
The developer literally used to program slot machines and stuff. He literally built this as like a serotonin skinner box and I LOVE it.
@stevenclark1662 I promised myself that I don't need another game on Steam even with Kevin's obvious enjoyment. But then I read your comment. I'm gonna be buying this game. Lol
@@grayhatjen5924This game is free on gamepass for PC and Xbox if you have it, just a heads up
Isn't that dopamine though :)) ?
@@grayhatjen5924 have fun, its worth it (i have 750h+ on it xD)
@@SplinterCellVideoGameSeriesyeah
I like how Kevin both has the reputation of playing games for just one video, and never playing again, but also has the reputation for getting quickly addicted to games.
ADHD in a nutshell
@@faithnowlin1697precisely
They just recently made this a mobile game as well
@@faithnowlin1697that’s just what I was thinking because I’m the same way
@@DjUn1versalomg YES! Wait I mean NOOO ! 😂 Can't wait to get addicted
As someone who has played and grinded pretty much every bullet heaven/survivor game, this was like watching someone play Minecraft for the first time in 2020. Seeing the flower arena, your first upgrade, first meta progression, coming short off winning a run by a couple seconds, it's solid gold watching someone go through that for the first time
Too bad he never bothered to unlock the 53 other characters.
I’ve only played this and halls of torment. Been looking to get into more games of this genre. You have any good suggestions?
@@kirbyjoe7484might want to wait a bit on holocure, it comes out on steam for free on the August 16th
@@oban6051 Here's some of the best I've played and would highly recommend:
Soulstone Survivors: had a recent update, has a neat meta progression system with different arenas to collect different resources for crafting new weapons for each of the characters, with a very large web of unlocks that makes the game very replayble
Spirit Hunters Infinite Horde: Very similar to the OG vampire survivors, but with a much more vast unlock system and meta progression, it took me more than 3 times as much to 100% this than VS, so if you enjoy grinding, this one's for you
Spellbook Demonslayers: Has a really interesting metaprogression system that allows you to alter the passives you find in your level ups, allowing for infinite replayability
20 Minutes till dawn: super challenging, with some really tense boss fights, this is the closest you'd get to the "dark souls of bullet heavens"
Bounty of One: has an interesting mechanic that you only fire your weapon when you don't move, and you only obtain passive upgrades to your primary weapon, which differ from character to character
Project Lazarus: the only mech bullet heaven I've seen, has an interesting system of each mech having a different amount of slots for each type of upgrade, eg weapons, passives, however can be a bit demanding on your hardware depending on your setup
Vampire hunters: a first person shooter still in its early days where you assemble guns to shoot enemies in an endless corridor while being chased by a moving wall
Nomad Survival: like Vampire Survivors but no limit on how many weapons or upgrades you get, adjustable game speed and special side challenges on each stage with a recent update that added some super challenging end game content.
RICE Repetitive Indie Combat Experience: a very tongue-in-cheek take on bullet heavens, killing planets for upgrades and upgrading weapons by combining multiple copies of them
Rogue Genesia: While it does feature a standard 30 minute Survivors mode, the real beauty of this game is the Rog's mode, which takes you through a series of Survivors-style levels as you progress through a map, acquiring weapons and passives on the way.
Bonus arena fighters:
Brotato: buy weapons and passives in between rounds of killing hordes of enemies playing as a variety of different potatoes with an awesome modding community
Neophyte: an amazing arena horde fighter filled with magic spells that you can equip exactly how you want, and a myriad of unique abilities to create an endless amount of builds to keep you coming back and back.
Holocure is supposed to be coming to steam with it's next update on the 17th.
I, too, was sceptical about this game, but then I bought it.
Where have all those hours gone?
Definitely one of my time fav games of all time and considering I am now in my 50s and have been playing games for over 40 years, it sure faces some stiff competition, but there are very, very few games that have this much justonemoregoitus built into its genes.
I love it.
Just-one-more-go-itis is wild lol
@@samirbelica2358omg thank you, I was like "Justo...nemo..regoitus?" And thought it was some fancy word I'd never heard lmao
Kevin when there’s tutorial in the game: “I’m gonna skip the tutorial”
Kevin when there’s no tutorial in the game: 🤯
Knowing how much of an addictive personality Kevin has, we might see more of this gem.
or less videos in general as he sinks deeper into the addiction?
I hope so!
@@salleesamaybe he'll stream it lol
I hope so because I am now addicted to watching him play it. So many dopamines and seratonins.
yeah I'm addicted to his personality
I love the nearly real time experience of someone going from "I don't get it wtf is this game" to "MORE GARLIC".
I also loved how that journey was made up of similar, smaller steps:
"I'm not sure about my pigeon friend" >>> "Oh man the pidgeon does numbers, mess 'em up, yeah!"
Only to later realize, betrayed, that garlic is a newbie trap, that is until the redemption arc provided by Arcana and limit break, that it’s their true mentor, their guiding moonlight all along.
@@chaoton Neeeeigh?
@@BrentDubroc Indeed
@@chaoton false even without those garlic is still a beast it just is an amplifier for other items
My husband did nothing but play this game for a full week. He loved every moment of it.
Yeah, higher your standards
@@markuss4133 I don't think you can hire standarts...
@@markuss4133 Awful bold to say from someone who is of no standard at all lmao
13:05 "I'm pretty sure it's not a pigeon btw"
pea-chone
Don't worry it is a pigeon hahaha
I thought it was peach-one?
Peach-one sounds like pigeon. I think it the game way of making a joke?
@@jibrilevans7428 peachone sounds like "piccione" which is pigeon in Italian. And yes there are a lot more jokes and puns like this since the developer is Italian
A small tidbit: the creator of the game is either italian or a fan of all things italy. Most names of characters and weapons are ridiculous mix-and-matches of italian and english. For example, "PeachOne" is a translitteration of the term "piccione", that is, pigeon, while "santa water" is a half translation of "acqua santa" - Holy Water.
How do I know? Well, it just happens that I myself am Italian (although I'm not the creator of the game).
daje Roma
Ilgiudizio
Sounds like something the creator of the game would say to throw us off of his trail..... hmmmmm🤔
I can't even describe the scream of happiness I let out when Kevin FINALLY unlocked the garlic. It's a life saver. Glad you can experience the true power of seasoning, Kevin.
Get the garlic before the seasoning police arrives 😂
Neat.
dude, garlic + birds+ guns because of the magic girl skin+ axe+ whip with the white one+ bible tho all evolved is mad in late game
@@patmccarthy7907try santa water, birds, axe, fireball, and magic wand for early game
the birds and santa water evolved are too op for late game
@@patmccarthy7907In my personal experience, Garlic is phenomenal early game, but quickly falls off to almost useless in late game
Kevin playing a game for like a couple minutes and then instantly getting addicted is the most Kevin thing ever
Trust me. I was the same way. Thought it was kind of a meh game. Started playing. Have several hours lost to this addicting game.
Just like me being addicted to Kevin's content
Yes this dumb ass game is addictive, it got me too.
Dammit now I’m going to have to play this again
Is it though? How often has it happened aside from Idle Breakout...?
Im glad others understand
If Kevin plays more of this game, I am absolutely watching _all_ of it.
But sims video are the best lol, im my opinion
I’m new here and I agree 😂
UFC on ESPN: Sandhagen vs. Font
SUCH a shame it's single player
This is like watching all the stages of addiction take place at the same time. GL with your recovery!
When I first got into this game I played it so much that when ai went to bed I would see the animation of the blue cristals being absorbed by your character. Like when you look at the sun too long you know? You get those images imprinted on your retina and when you close your eyes you can see them...
The fact that Kevin clearly knows the difference between dopamine and serotonin but is this committed to the meme is equally impressive and infuriating but this was a really fun watch :)
What meme 😅 yes I got a dopamine when he said dopamine instead of serotonin!
I’m glad I’m not the only one infuriated by him saying serotonin instead of dopamine
"I think I love garlic now" is definitely a phase that every player goes through.
and then you realise king bible is infinitely better than garlic late game 😂
@@osamabinlaggin69 Yep. I prefer Bibles over Garlic.
You know it’s gonna be a fun ride when Kevin calls a game weird
And best of all he calls most of them weird!🎉
I am entirely new to this channel, but this video is SO accurate holy shit 😂 the whole discovery experience was spot on, including how the game didn't look interesting and it wasn't my vibe and the trailer didn't grab me at all, and instead I was roped into it by a friend who would NOT STOP YELLING ABOUT IT. And now I'm that yelling friend and I have over a hundred hours in it 💀
The whip, and subsequently Bloody Tear, is one of the most underrated weapons in the game. I almost never play a round without it, it's basically a guarantee to keep you alive until the 30 minute mark. It's just a question of all your other weapons doing enough damage (and they absolutely can and will).
Having 40+ hours in this game, it's so fun to see people playing this for the first time and discovering all the things you're already used to. Hope to see more!
I beat the game but now Im trying to win every map with every character just for fun. Truly one of my all time favorite games
After 40+ hours you know Garlic is kinda garbage though lol
@@Casketkrusher_ EGGGGGGGS! EGGGSSSSSS WILL MAKE YOU APPRECIATE GARLIC AGAIN!
Because the game wont lag like hell lol
@@Soeck the game lagging sounds more like a pc issue lmao
@@Casketkrusher_ Oh absolutely, even the evolution is pretty garbage after 15 mins or so, its great early game though
This whole "Kevin plays and reviews random game" thing he's doing recently is kinda awesome
yes! I am loving them too
100% Agree, my steam library is becoming "games I have because Kevin makes literally everything he plays look like the most enjoyable thing I've ever seen"
The king Bible is actually super overpowered, Kevin! You should try it out more! Especially if you pick the spellbinder upgrade as well, for getting the upgraded version of the king Bible. The enemies won't be able to touch you.
Later in the game when you have all the difficulty modifiers it struggles to hold everything back on it's own, but combined with the fully upgraded garlic it's one of the most OP combos because of the pushback debuff the garlic applies. Getting those and fully upgraded santa water lets you just stand still and walk away from the computer with no worries
Bible is great when it has max upgrades, unfortunately it starts very weak. While garlic is great for farming xp early game.
it's great but not comparable to santa water once you get to the point where ennemy have a lot of curse !
unholy bible + soul eater + La borra = ultimate lawnmower
@@iamtired5440or just get Sammy so you REALLY don't have to do anything lol
Watching him die at 29 : 57 was so painful
Wait until he finds out there's a crow to go along with the pigeon
It's so addictive and fun even BEFORE you figure out all the weapon upgrades.
Also, congrats to that very early almost 30min run, that was actually impressive.
Helps that Level 2 is the easiest level.
I’d watch you play 30 hours of this straight.
It’s hilarious because while watching I went through the same stages as you did.
The video actually made me smile. I was alone. Curled up on the sofa, smiling. One of my favourite videos you’ve done recently, thank you Kevin ❤
^ THis
Did you ever go from the stage of thinking garlic was the only way you can win to never getting garlic ever?
'Curled up' on the sofa smiling sounds sinister
@@bradleymoore2797 Why would you not get garlic? I mean, I personally live my life playing 1 weapon and grabbing Divine Bloodline with the arcana that increases CDR for every empty slot...just on Poe.
Vampire survivors is one of these weird indie games that instantly hooks you. I was not expecting to spend 80 hrs in it for sure. Fully upgraded bible and garlic are my go to for staying alive til the later rounds.
Yeah I got the mobile app cause I was board and spent like 120 hours 100% ing it
the duplication power up, plus the duplication ring, plus bony boi, plus max level bible. It will put the fear of god into your enemies.
@robonator2945 it's almost like a cheat code for the game.
Vampire survivors brought me back to the indie scene in a big way, I have been trying so many smaller games and loving it.
The universal Vampire Survivors experience:
1. "Well if it's bad ill only be out like 3 bucks"
2. "THIS is what everyone says is so great? I don't get it but I guess i'll go again."
3. "GIVE ME MORE. MORE!"
dude kevin playing games he didnt know he wanted to play is a perfect series
I'm so glad that these rather simple looking games still get so much love in this age of ultra high graphics! They have their own special allure
This game really feels like a 2D Castlevania Warriors. I grew up loving Castlevania, and it's neat to see how much inspiration this game shows with weapons and enemies
this is the comment I came to find. So much Castlevania in this game.
@@mariahminner1334 I think the early versions even used sprites ripped directly from Castlevania until they were changed for copyright reasons
For me the game can be summed up as, Castlevania meets Gauntlet, with a side of SMASH TV.
Yeah, I immediately got a Trevor/Richter vibe when I saw Antonio.
@astuteanansi4935 I think it was always Ersatz counterparts juiuust legally distinct enough but they upgraded the designs to be more unique
This game - and the entire genre as a whole, really - is just pure seratonins and dopamines all the time, and it's truly amazing. The gameplay loop is just so rewarding for so many of the games in the genre, at least the good ones. Obviously there's also a LOT of garbage out there at this point, trying to cash in, but even many of those are at least still somewhat fun for a short time at least.
"The pigeon saved me. It was like calling in an airstrike." 😂
Saw a comment a few videos ago that said 'My steam wishlist is getting dangerously close to just games I saw Kevin play'
I concur.
Bible + Garlic is actually a really good combo. Like all weapons, you have to level them up before they really come into their own, but at max level you should have multiple Bibles near constantly orbiting around you. Garlic is great for the early game as it just melts through the weaker enemies, but the damage doesn't keep up against stronger enemies. But the Garlic also increases knockback, so the combination of Bible + Garlic is actually really good at keeping enemies away from you. Other than that, you need to get a weapon that can heal you, which at this point means evolving the right weapon. Purchase upgrades and grind out those unlocks and you'll get more options opening up. Also, Empty Tome is one of the strongest passive items.
Add axe since it's powerup req (chandelier) increases area size.
There are some disgusting area denial builds in this game, and I think La Borra (santa water and attractor iirc?) is heavily slept upon.
@@davidrosensin7985 La Borra used to be the most OP thing with characters that add projectiles on certain levels when I first played it. Plus there are plenty weapons greatly benefitting from AOE.
@@brohvakiindova4452 I'm just saying that there's some stuff you can do in that game that is just pure area denial. If you run 5 weapons things can get out of hand very quickly, but even JUST La Borra can carry.
Yeah eventually once, I had so many bibles orbiting me that it became literally impossible for me to take damage. Wherever I stood, enemies just kept walking into my shield of bibles and dying. That was a fun round.
Yeah...I am ashamed to admit this game has taken over 100 hours from my life!
It's just a bit too addictive. XD
But that garlic tho 🤭
Same here. Then I saw that they released it on mobile and them hours went from 100 to 500 since I'm on the train a lot
It's one of those rare games where the existence of achievements makes it EASIER to stop. For most games you're done and then you grind 20 more hours to complete inane achievements, in VS you feel at piece when you get 100% achievements. After that, we can rest.
669.5 hours .... it not that addictive.
I've spent just over 100 hours in Cyberpunk, so that is actually crazy.
Like watching a person progressively become an addict xD
I had this experience as a kid when I was trying out Maple Story..... who would have thought that whacking snails, slimes and mushrooms with a club could get you so addicted?
I'm glad you seem a lot more energetic than in some previous videos! I hope you've recovered from whatever was up
Watching Kevin pick up all the worst weapons and items, and never even getting to the second bird that evolves with the pigeon to become a super weapon.
Can't wait to see when he discovers dual guns.
Cant wait for him to find the secret map items to unlock the secret pie trail and find the hidden jojo reference with the evolved knife thrower, followed by him using the knife thrower to kill the “planned skeleton moon” to unlock the forbidden scroll to get the ghost that has the pigeon.
To people who have never played that’s all real btw!
But he hates the bibles and they are super good
@@570y3n the Bible is mid as hell i agree with him
I was just about to reference his addiction to idle breakout but just as I was about to do so, Kevin did. Good on you Kevin, recognizing it’s an addiction is the first step in recovery!
knowing just how addictive this game is first hand I would not be shocked to find out Kevin logged 270 hours just to give us these 27 minutes of content.. it's like digital crack 🤣
27:26 "i hope you got a serotonin" Double digits, kevin. Double digits
The IRL line for death by bats not embarrassing= 143≥
Just a few tips: Empty Tome, Spinach and Duplicator are amazing. Must haves. Axe can evolve with Candelabrador, Fire Wand can evolve with Spinach and Lightning Ring can evolve with Duplicator. Other than that, you did great for your first runs!
I love how quickly Kevin worked out that Garlic is indeed the best powerup in the game 😂
and the upgraded bible... death-barrier and killing aura for anything that gets PAST that deathshield.
....for the early game. it becomes significantly less great once you get meta progression and some golden eggs
@@briannelson27 it's evolution carries in hyper levels, constant healing especially on miang if you own the dlc.
@@DevilJhoMama i have done solo weapon runs and run each character in all dlc. garlic is horrible for late game stuff. most other weapons don't even allow the enemies to get to you, so healing is useless. when the weapons are so big that you can't see the level anymore you are safe.
@briannelson27 yeah it's not strong enough to kill everything, but it is strong enough to keep you alive as long as you have another source of damage. It's especially powerful when paired with the evolved whip and or evolved bible.
This was a joy to watch. Seeing Kevin figure out how the game works was gold. Thanks for the laughs and the reminder that I have this game.
I cannot be the only one who wants to see another episode of this
There are so many absurd quotes in this video
“Whipping goblins wasn’t on my agenda today”
“Man the pigeon does NUMBERS!”
“Oh no I’m in someone’s garden and the pigeon’s aiming a little weird…” 12:36
“Niceee my garlic leveled up” 16:20
“Oh no I’m in a toothpaste commercial again…” 23:13
This was oddly pleasant to watch. I just really loved watching Kevin’s garlic melt through enemies.
Dang Kevin is legitimately a philosopher, out here reinventing the Paradox of the Heap
"If I heard someone died to three bats I'd say 'how did that even happen' but if I heard they died to like a thousand bats 'that's horrific and I don't know where the line is"
That sounds like it's closely related to the concept of fuzzy logic. Terrifying to die to that many bats though, RIP
Absolutely based pfp!
@@captaincaspian42 ikr lol
I'd say the limit is around 20 bats.
Oh, bats are one of the biggest cariers of rabies. You only need _one_ bat.
You are very correct on the addictive nature of this game. It honestly just gets substantially weirder and more addicting as you play.
If he would just stay still with the garlic the skeletons wouldn't even reach him and just deliver free xp
Bro wait till they release holocure on steam this August, you'll be in an even worse state of addiction
I love this game because as soon as you get used to how crazy it is, it gets so much crazier
Remember that time you get your first evolution and you're like "Wait...what?" only to find out every weapon (with a few exceptions) has one?
Always fun to see people play this for the first time. :) Once you find the garlic, you appreciate walking into clouds of bats. No big deal.
this video is a lot like your experience with Vampire survivors, let me explain, I originally thought a video on a game I knew about would be redundant to watch (especially since its vampire survivors, didn't seem like that much fun) but went ahead with it because its a callmekevin video, and now I've spent 20 minutes watching this when I planned to do something else. Great video.
This video convinced me to buy Vampire Survivors. I didn't really know anything about it before, maybe saw a couple screenshots of it but otherwise wouldn't give it the time of day. I'm a HUGE Castlevania fan too, so I appreciate that this game is just drenched in references to the series. It's really fun, and definitely addictive. I had no idea it was so cheap, too! I got it on sale for like a few bucks.
as someone who 100% this game and dlcs, I need more of kevin playing, there's SO MUCH he has yet to see, mechanics, bosses, new weapons and the stupid big roster of characters. Not even mentioning the Randomazzo. Seeing someone new discovering VS brings joy to the heart lmao
i love how this popularized an entire genre. My personal favourite is Soulstone Survivors, didn't really hit it off with this one
but as game design go, it's genius. Mixing old and modern gaming tricks to make it addicting
Halls of Torment pretty fun too
@@MrBertie7 Should look into Army of Ruin
Death Must Die seems like the one for me. The genre variety is pretty awesome too, right now
i prefer a little game called holocure
I hate this genre... I grew up playing games that actually looked like this... screw nostalgia... I want realism and graphics.. physics etc
There was a time where I played it so much that I would see the game whenever I blinked. I was severely addicted.
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love 💚 , and peace all over the world . I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust so as time goes on it will bring something great for us in the future, hope you don't mind? I'm Gabriel Wood from Brooklyn New York, where are you from if I may ask
That is called Tetris Syndrome, friend
With Kevin now hooked on Vampire Survivors and Holocure being realesed on steam soon, i am looking forward to the almost inevitable day he discovers Holocure.
Does Kev know anything about VTubers, let alone Hololive specifically? I always find it funny watching the reactions of people who know nothing about them trying to work out all the crazy references, like Maximilian playing Idol Showdown. (He ended up liking Botan the most because she is cool and has the power of GUN.)
10:26 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 love the Serious Sam reference there
Alot like the game "20 Minutes Till Dawn" which functions similarly
Kevin I’m going through a really hard time right now, and I can not really articulate how grateful I am for you and your videos. Thank you.
This was a great video Kevin! I would love to see you do a series on this game. There is a metric TON of playable characters, all with their own weapons and abilities. It would be fun to watch you explore this game further.
Not getting 30 min just drove me crazy
My brother doesn't know the power of the laurel.
Now we gotta get Kevin to come back to this years later to complete the full run, like he has with some other games. lol
Just reinstalled this game. Watching Kevin get serotonins is giving me flashbacks to all the serotonin I farmed in this game
This HAS to be a series
I've played games like this before, not sure what this genre is called, but yeah they are JUST as addicting as Kevin shows here.
i love how this kind of game has been in mobile for years now but when a game like vampire survivors release on pc then it becomes the greatest game ever
Bwahahaha! I am psyched to watch this video!
Everyday at work, a group of us play Vampire survivors and chat for the whole lunch hour so it was a shock to see it appear in my Kevin feed.
(Really hoping he gets to play as the tree. I think he would enjoy the silliness quite a bit)
I can't believe he managed escape Vampire Survivors' nefarious grasp for this long, damn.
Welp, nothing to be done, Kevin's lost to us now.
I was never into these kinds of games until I gave this one a try, happy to see you enjoyed it too Kevin!
I love this game and I eagerly await another vampire survivors video. I love seeing how people fare with games I very much enjoy
the game is definitely designed that way, and it unfortunately works.
it drip feeds you dopamine with big numbers and got massively popular, to the point that a majority of the people playing it think genuinely that it started the genre and ripoffs, and that magic survival (from 2019, a much more actually engaging and deep version of the same horde killing level up formula thats much more lovingly crafted (its also free, still recieving massive updates every few months and on mobile)) is one of said ripoffs, which is really annoying
HEY MAN, I JUST STOPPED BY TO SAY DAMN YOU FOR INTRODUCING ME TO THIS GAME I GOT IT OUT OF MILD CURIOSITY AND I HATE HOW MUCH I LOVE IT ALREADY. I THOUGHT THE REVIEWS ABOUT ADDICTION WERE A BIT BUT THEY HONESTLY HAVE SOME VALIDITY. THIS IS A GREAT GAME TO PLAY WHILE IGNORING THE CONSTANT PROGRESSION OF TIME AND FORGETTING WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BLINK. I BOTH DO AND DON’T RECOMMEND THIS GAME.
Seeing Kevin play Vampire Survivors is strong evidence in my headcanon that Kevin, DangerouslyFunny and GrayStillPlays are all secretly the same guy
I didn’t even have to watch a video for DangerouslyFunny, just saw the names for them, and yeah that guy is definitely Gray at least.
nope they just all chase the same trends and you're so simple that you worship them for it.
This game is incredible. It does it one thing and it does it so well
a guy told me to try this game when he walked into the 24hr gas station i worked at at 3:00 in the morning. I wasn't sure what he was talking about, and I unfortunately forgot all about it in the days following. Finding out that _this_ was what he was talking about all along...honestly makes sense for a guy who goes to gas stations at 3:00 in the morning.
That scream at 10:26 really makes me want to see you play Serious Sam now, it would be so cool!
There's only more and more to this game. More levels, systems, characters, some entirely new playstyles even... there's so much depth here, especially for the price.
If you keep playing Kev-O, I think you'd love the old minecart guy, like I do.
Vampire survivors is a great game nice to see you play it i got adicted when it first came out and asmongold played it
This game is very deceptive and VERY addictive lol. That last gameplay was very satisfying to watch!
it’s been a month since this was uploaded… a month since i became addicted to the game… i haven’t seen my family in weeks… all i know is big garlic… hoping kevin returns to vampire survivors bc there’s so so much more content than meets the eye
*the most normal game ever*
"ThIs Is A wEiRd GamEee"
I loved when the vampire said "It's Vampiring Surviving time!" and proceeded to vampire survive over everything.
I didn’t want the video to end. Games looks so fun
Lol having watched dangerouslyfunny play this game over the past year or so, it would have been hilarious to have Kevin get to 30 minutes and see what happens 😂
8:55 is incredibly accurate and a wonderful thing to have said
I got 15 min in a while ago, then finished the video tonight and restarted it afterwards to watch the first 15 min again… and rewatched the entire video again for the second time in a row. I’m so tempted to watch it a 3rd time in a row. Please play more of this game
I hope this'll be Kevin new addiction so he can make more videos on it
