Also, just a side note, while Chris does make the music for the games, he isn’t a dev. But if you are talking about contributions in general, then yes chris is definitely a creator of risk of rain and risk of rain 2. (Also of course my dude Jefferey Hunt who worked on Risk 2 a lot)
Fun fact: after killing Mithrix and starting the collapse, if you go to the teleporter you spawned into the stage at, you find a frog statue. Donate to it a few times and it takes you straight to the planetarium, meaning you can kill both bosses in one game.

I just wanna say. for a small youtube, this video is incredible. Its better than most I see and really shows your unique humor and your ability to explain things in a entertaining and engaging way. The intro is funny, unique and hooks viewers immediately. And, the edits are clean and funny. Very well done, good job dude.
I’d compliment just how fucking amazing this video is but I’ll be honest with you I cannot find the words to describe how good it is and all the words I could use were stolen by everyone else.
Risk of rain is just one of those games that has an immaculate atmosphere to it. The music, the landscapes and the lore give a feeling of adventure and far away mystery, but there's a more humorous side to it all with some of the items and small references. I listen to its soundtrack regularly
Risk of Rain is that game whoever heard of it played it, and whoever played it loved it. ANNNNNND those who haven't heard of it probably lived in a different universe and do not have certified gamer license.
"You don't play the game as a lump of items." Well, not until super late game, anyway. Love the video, especially the transitions. Just in time to begin thinking about the upcoming RoR1 remake...
One theory that I like is that void reavers and JAILERS (!) act as almost a balance check for the universe of RoR2, keeping everything and check and making sure that people like Mithrix and providence don’t ever happen again. The reason void reavers show up after a loop is because that’s the point in the run where your probably really strong with a lot of items, so your powerful enough that the void thinks you need to be locked away for the safety of petrichor-V. They don’t mind mithrix because he was locked away on the moon, and providence was kind and used his power for good, but you use your power to kill the natural inhabitants of the planet, so you get locked away forever. Once they saw that you killed mithrix, they absorb the moon in a last ditch effort hoping to take you with the damn thing. The only thing that slightly invalidates this is scavengers as they also pick up items but I think they’re peaceful towards the monsters just like providence so that’d be why they don’t get hunted by the void either.
I don’t know what’s going on but for the first time RUclips has been recommending these BANGER new channels the past week or so. I’ve found at least 4 new creators in the last week who have been putting out heat, all of which have under 500 subs. Good job RUclips
No matter how many hundreds of hours I have in this game I will always watch videos like this all the way through. Incredible quality, I can't imagine how long the editing took. but quality like this will always be recognized, and get you more subscribers. no matter how long in between uploads.
I appreciate the kind words, really. Overall, animations and editing, took about 3 months but that's also due to my procrastination. If I had to say how long it could have taken me if I was super on it, maybe a month?
Dude, that was an excellent breakdown of both games, I love that you gave time to all sides of the topic too and how you dove into describing and breaking down everything! The animated transitions were fun and I love how they came out. Also glad to see someone refer to ror1 Sniper with they/them, its such a small bit of lore but its cool you remembered it :D Really hope the algorithm picks up this video, you deserve to pop off after the amount of effort you put into it
fun fact, if you get the alternate skin for railgunner by beating mythrix or sacrificing yourself at the alter thing, it is actually extremely similar to sniper (I’d say it literally IS sniper), which helps support the whole ‘railgunner is inspired by sniper’ idea. It’s really cool!
youtube algorithm recommending small channels + a review of a game that i havent spent my past 4 months on so yea good for you m8 you got recommended but mostly to already existing risk of rain players so few people will apprecieate the video
You could note that green items are more specialized than white, red are more specialized than green, and yellows often act as direct upgrades to green
Its probably still more accurate to say rarer tiers are more powerful. Like you can't say Ben's raincoat is a specialized Tougher Times. Or that the brilliant behemoth is specialized sticky bombs. As for direct upgrades as yellows, barring the titanic knurl and mired urn, I'd claim they're on average more specialized. Shatterspleen is a bleed item, much better than daggers, but requires either some daggers or some crit to work, thereby making it specialized. Most minion summoning items are in this category and so none of those are direct upgrades to any green items. Yes Shatterspleen does make enemies explode, but if you don't have some way to cause bleed in the first place, that ability is useless and thereby a specialized one.
@@Steampunk_Kak Yes, which would go so far to say that shatterspleen is not a better bleed knife. Only if you have other items, which then thereby makes it specialized. Its damage potential is gated by the presence of other items. I never said it couldn't proc, but if you just started a run and had a choice between a bleed knife or a shatterspleen as potenially the only item you'd get? You'd probably end up getting the knife. Not that such a run would last very long.
One thing you missed is that every stage 4 has a way to get a guaranteed red item either through a hidden boss or a hidden legendary chest with 2 or 3 spawn locations
The first time one of thos "low view" recommendations is actually good. Also, REALLY excited for the remake. (ive played the first game since before chef was a thing) the sub is yours.
I can state that this game is just so addicting, once you start playing, you most likely won't stop playing just because the game is well made and it has a really important thing for games such as replaying, you want to play over and over and that's why this game is so good
Risk of Rain tldr. Crazed mailman commits several illegal acts against local animal population whilst traveling through multiple countries he/she is wanting in.
My friend asked me what the game was like because he wanted to get the game, but I couldn't describe it that well. Now I can just send him this video. Thanks.
This was a phenomenal video, I got this vid after listening to the OST in the recommended. When I saw the quality of this vid i thought you probably had some 100k+ subs. You make great content I'll definitely keep watching vids and future uploads. Also RISK OF RAIN MENTIONED RRAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
if I remember correctly, one of the devs said they added railgunner in ror2 instead of sniper cause someone already made a ror1 sniper mod, and they didn't want to essentially just make a paid version of it.
WIsh this could've come out a little later to touch on the remake for ror1 that's happening. But regardless, great video! A little harsh on ror1 for my tastes, but then again, it's flaws are a good reason why it's being remade to begin with lol
I know, in the middle of making this video, the news came out and I didn't want to change the script or disrupt the flow, but I'm really excited for the remake, maybe I'll do a video on it. Also I suppose I did backhand ROR1 a little, I still love it though.
@@Piecity I completely understand. Glad to hear you're excited for the remake too! Seems like it just has so much stuff, and it looks stunning. But yea, great vid! Absolutely loved the funny lil 3d animations between sections
the reason i love commander in ror2 so much is perfectly explained in ur lore part, ur just some random ass commando arriving to save friends, leaving after killing a god
Probably the most memorable part for me was when you get to the moon for the first time and you hear this calm piano music, you instantly know you are near the end
I thought I would mention you don't actually kill providence he just teleports away after you seriously wound him, which makes me feel a bit better about bullying him to end runs.
Dude, I just gotta say, the is one of the best ROR2 videos I've seen in a while. The script is sound, the animations are good, you've got great, but subtle comedic timing with editing and line placement, and overall it's one of my favorites so far! Tell ya what as well. You ever do another ROR2 video and you wanna include voices for Mithrix or Providence? Hmu, I been doing them for some months now! I'd love to work with ya
Great summary and review! The little SFM animations were funny, too! If anything, I am SHOCKED that you uploaded this yesterday but didn't mention Risk of Rain Returns
Your dedication to truly representing the essence of what made ror/ror2 great or interesting was dope. Also, as someone who greatly appreciates visuals, I love your editing!
I just wanna say holy shit because tris is without a doubt a godly video and I can see your channel picking up traction in the future. The flow of the video was perfect and even though my friends have been barraging me to play this game I haven’t until now. You have earned a sub.

The characters from risk of rain 1 aren’t different from the ones in risk of rain 2, except for acrid, acrid is the only character that is truly in both games
Good Video bruv. I like your style, hope this video blows up, but i gotta say, your 3D animation sequences need some lighting, it looks like you just turned off light map in the programme and it looks less good compared to the everything else in the video. Keep up the good work.
My friend wanted me to get this game for a long while, once I got enough money to not be financially bankrupt for the rest of my life after getting it, I got it. AND I LOVE IT!
Risk of rain 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, from the gameplay to the music to my utter hatred for eclipse’s progression system. But damn Hopoo really decided to just straight up abandon the game to another studio without even giving console players the ability to play the DLC. I dont play ror2 on console but still that is scummy.
