Honestly like this style of content, would've liked to see some other stuff like what happened at the inn along side notable things, like trinket switches, one or two fights to get a feel for the team and what not, but honestly this is great
I'm just so happy with whatever optimization Redhook did to the game because it runs so much better on steam deck. Playing thru heroic for the past year+ the tangle was literally unplayable. The other zones ranged from borderline to fine but now running it natively from steam it is a huge improvement. Redhooks steam deck control layout has had me fumbling though, I think I prefer what I had came up with while playing EA.
No Spoilers besides mechanics ahead. I’m going to say this outright, I think Reach is my favorite boss in the game, it isn’t too weighty in the health pool, has mitigation that can be countered or deleted, allowing use of skills that are seldom seen (Tracking shot, break, vuln hex). Fair mechanics that make sense for the boss, dot teams shine in this fight. And the urgency that I didn’t realize until I had almost won was definitely an “oh shit” moment. Because I noticed the debuff and saw that if I didn’t rush down when I did it could have hit me for a lot more damage. That and the looks and sound design for the boss are pristine
Slight spoilers: Ambition is the physical manifestation of “This isn’t even my Final Form”, every time I thought I had beaten it, it came back stronger which was as cool as it was terrifying. I also love how it is ‘foreshadowed’ with the alter of ambition granting extra actions during cultist fights. Thought that was pretty clever.
I liked the format of this one a lot! Only showing the major fights is a good call. I think it'd be interesting to show you prepping the team before going into lairs and the mountain boss, explaining why you choose which moves/combat items that you did and such. Overall though, great stuff! Also, it's really weird to see DD2 gameplay on this channel without my stupid name showing up on the side spouting a dumb comment
Just beat him with this setup, had an unlucky phase 2>3 transition oneshotting my GR and losing PD and MAA soon after. Flagellant did a huge clutch solo for like 50% of the final phase with the trinket that gives him dodge etc on Deaths Door. Great boss fight.
The Act 4 boss got hands! My first attempt at him evolved into quite the slap fight. In the end I got fisted to death though. On the second attempt however, my fist rose in victory!
@@ahmeteneskoksal1929 The first phase took me waaay to long since I had pretty much nothing to get past his Block Tokens. By the time I got to Phase 2 my MAA was in pretty bad shape. Second attempt with PD, GR, Jester (formerly Flagellant but he died to his very first Deathblow check after a Docker Crit him for 42 with Hulbreaker) and MAA went much smoother.
I went in blind and beaten it today! I didnt even recognise that all that damage was coming from the cause of death style move😂 i didnt prepared with move res and bleed res but phase 1 was easy, phase 2 the same, phase 3 i had bellow so hurray but I started taking tons of damage, i managed to kill it right after my PD died RIP
Might seem like a dumb question but when do you unlock "the mountain" in the altar. Mainly played the test version of the game and am switching to the main game (on epic's store). Just completed act 1 and I dont see it. Great content as always though man, been playing dd1/dd2 for like 5 years now and I still suck so its a big help lol. Edit: nvm lol I just saw the requirement ha ha.
K but I have to ask serious question about this boss now What kind of food it consumes, or what kind of nail polish it uses that they are so good looking and not damaged.
Just go to the tangled and beat lair boss until u get the trophy that locks your characters in place for 5 turns 🤷 also use tempest leper up front on this team
@Corvinian doubt it. Game is highly targeting casuals this time around. I guess the real game is using the infernal torches. Sadly, I have to unlock them still so I have to grind ez stuff which is not fun for me, but maybe others will enjoy it.
@@alext5497 I think that’s just your perception lol, I’m sure RH will buff the Act 4 and 5 bosses just like they did with Act 3. Also structure your sentences better

I agree.
Oh shit it's derp, I was missing your dumb comments watching this
The boss design for this and act 5 are so damn cool.
Flagellant being like "You dare burn books? You craven!" XD
been playing with flag in my most recent runs. found out the hard way that you can kill yourself by punish on death's door.

@@riemaennchen flag dying on first death door check. Some things never change
@@lovetrain5025 My thoughts exactly.^^
32:59 Cultist priest PTSD
38:20 wait, it neutralizes part of that specific trinket? That’s dirty
The crotch rot strikes again
My thoughts exactly. Red hook is paying people to do something they were going to do anyway lol.
Oh boy, the 4th confession boss could be... a HANDFUL.
Would love to see a new tier list with specific path
Kudos to Red HooooOOOOOK (Shuff voice/call out) 👍
Awesome design for a boss. Curious to see what the Act 5 Boss is like
Oh man, it’s a work
Anyone else losing their mind that Shuff didn't take snappy swig when he had the burn trophy and gr on the team
this boss got hands
Can’t wait too see who they add next to make this game with lot of more strategy and playable
Theyre smart to sponsor you, I've watched enough of your content to be close to buying this game evsn though I dont have time to play haha
how do u run without stress heal (appart from man at arms one)
I predicted it. H a n d s

Is the 3rd act boss the most punishing? It was brtual!
hell yeah been watching for a while good to see this game is out time to get my shit rocked B^)

Thanks 👍
K but I have to ask serious question about this boss now
What kind of food it consumes, or what kind of nail polish it uses that they are so good looking and not damaged.
What is the key to pull up enemy stat screen?
Alt or middle mouse click
@@ShuffleFM Thanks man!
Do we have a console release date yet mr streamer?
Soon™ is all we got.
I can't wait for the animation waifu mods
Damn... the boss´ got hands O_O
Why no vendomdrop on Audrey?
Not great for this boss
Just go to the tangled and beat lair boss until u get the trophy that locks your characters in place for 5 turns 🤷 also use tempest leper up front on this team
Schnappy schwig legit best trinket in game!!! Why tf u discard it??
Eh flag looks less badass wo/ bleed :/.
The videos would be so much more enjoyable if the game had volume
One shot act 4 and act 5. Kinds disapointed by how easy the game is
@@ahmeteneskoksal1929 enjoy while it lasts, I bet RH is going to buff the bosses ridiculously just like act 3

@@alext5497wdym casuals lol, I bet they will buff 4 and 5 sooner or later lmfao
@@Korvinian4601 wdym what fo I mean? The game is a joke atm . Everyone a d their mother is clearing it week 1, if not day 1.

bro, i think you are losing some of your hair on top of the head.
Still, keep up good work man.
Is that a joke man? If not, why bring it up?
@@ELMITLON why you took it so serious bro?
@@skorpionGF well it's not a constructive comment man. I know that if I were him I wouldn't like to see that comment
Your mom thinks it's sexy 😏
Bought the game, hate the game, honestly its a huge step back in terms of DD1.
I don’t see a huge step back tbh
Dd1.5 is black reliquary. Imo dd2 is great on its own.
I looooove dd2. I like the new gameplay direction and the fact that it doesn't replace dd1. Lets me enjoy both games.
