      You should make a tips video. Tips video are severely lacking in the community right now. I’ll list some of my tips if it helps.
      I have over $40k and I’m only 6 hours in.
      1. Progressing to the jet pack is extremely helpful. It helps to reach new spaces, move around the expansive world easier and quicker. (Upgrades to the jet pack aren’t as useful to go for early, it’s time consuming and only reduces the stamina it takes)
      2.pink slimes aren’t worth it. Don’t make them largo’s. If you need their plorts for upgrades, just find them around the islands.
      3. Explore the game and take it slow. Of course you can sleep through nights and farm crops, feed your slimes, rinse and repeat. Waiting until you have 100s of plorts to sell at a high price. But money comes naturally.
      4. MIX SLIMES STRATEGICALLY tabbies only eat meat. Hens are more annoying to farm so the solution is to mix tabbies with fruit/veggie eating slimes. I mix hunters and batties. I mix rock and booms. Anglers and phosphorous slimes.
      5. Extra inventory space is very convenient. 1st get the ability to suck materials. Then jet pack, then inventory upgrades.

      Yeah I noticed that too. *out in the world*
      5 minutes in: *tarr*
      Me: Well that didn't take long.
      Though I managed to unlock all areas and plots without the water tank to defend myself and never was killed by a tarr, it wasn't that easy either. You CAN survive just by running through them as long as they've got slimes to target first. And it also helps to be up higher than they can jump, that's the difficult part early on. You MUST have the jetpack to unlock everything. Now that I have unlocked all territories, it's time to get to making newbucks

      @@michaelgalban8062 Would be pretty cool to get slime rancher as multiplayer. Build a server much like you would other titles, leave it open to the public or to friends/contacts and have them progress the entire server with you. Unlock things faster. HOWEVER, The newbucks would go to the SERVER instead of the players themselves. Multiplayer is kept to the server, not to the individual. BUT I do feel like there should be a system in place that allows server administration to disperse some sort of daily 'salary' to those that play and support the expansion of the server. Just my thoughts.

    I think what bothers me about all the reviews about the game is "It's pretty much the same as the first game, but ever so slightly different." and using that as a negative argument. There are SO MANY triple A games that are carbon copies of the last one (I'm looking at you, call of duty), and yet people still play the crap out of those games with little complaint. SR2 feeling like an elaborate expansion is not a negative. They had a good base game and are just expanding on ideas where they see fit. The game is totally fine stand alone. Nothing against this review in particular as it's one of the few positive ones. I'm just annoyed by the negative reviews claiming "just the same as the first one, not worth".

  • @rayfould301
    @rayfould301 2 года назад +13

    I see all the positive reviews on Steam and RUclips and I keep wondering why I feel the complete opposite about the game. I absolutely loved the first game, and I spent well over 200 hours playing it, beating it about 8-9 times, and also playing with various mods and stuff. I was so excited for the release of Slime Rancher 2, I was waiting for this game to release all summer. I bought it within the first 3 minutes of its release, and quite frankly, I was extremely disappointed. The sequel that I was waiting for for 5 years brought just 5 new slimes and a new map. The majority of the mechanics were the same, we still have all the same slimes since last time, all the possible building options and upgrades are the same, and the game has barely changed in my eyes. I don't know if it's due to my high expectations due to my extreme level of excitement, but this game has felt like a huge disappointment to me. I hope that Monomi Park will add more stuff in the future, but for now, I am sad to see that this is what we have as the sequel.

    • @LegacyGamingUS
      @LegacyGamingUS  2 года назад +8

      I think you're right on the money with how a lot of people are feeling. The steam charts paint a picture of people excited about the game, but giving up pretty quickly once they realize it's the same thing as SR1. I think the value is still there, I spent a lot of time just enjoying my time back in the world, but I would say if you were expecting a completely new experience SR2 just didn't deliver. I have faith, based on their blogpost outlining early access, that the team will deliver on new and innovative stuff, but it's just going to take time.

    This game is great 👍 but not so good. I am gonna rant about all the things I dislike but just know I still enjoyed the game! So first of all, this feels more like a dlc rather than a sequel, to me there just aren’t enough new things to justify making a whole new game. Yes the new slimes are neat but that’s it, I feel as if there was a lot more variety in the first game and it doesn’t help that 70% of the slimes are not new. Also the ranch is way too big. I found myself not even using half of the buyable areas so they are just vacant with nothing in them. Also it is simply too big, it feels so tedious simply running from one place to the other in the ranch. In the first game it all felt a lot more cozy and compact. Also I don’t really like that the map is just three well now four island. It takes from the flow of the game and really does not feel great. Also there are no nice and big areas in the game except for where the boom gordo is. I remember in the first game that there were these huge areas exploding with color and beauty, now it is almost claustrophobic. As I said, I really enjoyed playing it but it is way too similar to the first game for it to be in fact a sequel and not a dlc or something like that.

    3:46 I think it’s also a good mention that the new over abundance of tarr is relevant to the story. The whole thing with rainbow island is that it’s unstable, almost breaking apart, and the tarr are a reflection of this new ominous situation on rainbow island being baked into the gameplay. In my opinion it’s definitely on purpose and a part of the storytelling.

    Yes, it's Early Access, and yes, they've said there are 18 months before full release. But there is plenty of content in the game already and the really confusing thing is just how much of that content is near identical to the first game. I'm sure it's all there as a base to build upon, but it comes across as filler, with the community waiting for something new.

      I think it depends on what you're looking for out of the game. If you wanted something completely innovative and you got more SR1, just called something different, yeah it's maybe 10-hours max, but if you're new to the world, or just wanted a fresh Monomi Park experience, the playtime can stack up. I think the former is how a lot of returning players feel, and I get that, but realize this is early access and things will continue to evolve.
