In light of the recent update, Enter the Gungeon thread.
So now that this game has had two major rebalancing updates is it finally fun to play? Every time I get into it it's tedious as all fuck and a chore to play no matter what item I get, did they finally fix it?
not really, the game would pretty much need to be redesigned from the ground up to fix it's problems

I think just making health, keys, and ammo drop more frequently would be a huge step up. That and maybe giving the player more items more frequently, as it stands it just doesn't ever feel right using a lot of the guns because it took you twenty minutes to get them and ammo is scarce as fuck.

its just not fun. binding of isaac does the formula way better

>enemy health still scales with each floor >acknowledge that damage cap on bosses is the most hated mechanic in the game >proceed to change it but only extremely slightly because ???? Nah its still being held back for no reason
Well I just got it last night and it's very fun. I'm not expecting perfection from $15 worth of pixelshit.

I have played 201 hours ETG and i can say its honestly just sub par. I enjoyed it alot anyway. Here are some short thoughts. The RNG is absolute dogshit and never feels "right". Keys being the main issue, its always too many keys or no fucking keys. Even if you get the keys the chest rng can and will fuck you with low quality chests. Some guns are so bad they are unusable, though a few were buffed in AFTA. If you think Isaac is too item reliant then steer clear of etg. The robot, bullet and pilot are so fucking easy mode they were the clear choice for casual play as they avoid the shitty RNG a little by being stronk. Not after AFTA tho holy god the new bois are just TOO STRONG.
ETG is generally rage inducing and tedious, but it did feel good getting a little gud. That is the only reason to play it i think. If youre good at isaac but bored try etg. Thanks for reading my blog, hit that upworthy link to subscribe

to unlock the gunslinger do you need to beat the past without dying after killing the lich with the paradox in the same run? that sounds horrible man
Lichs eye bullets makes every gun the best gun it can be. Its a breeze. Although the gunslingers past is a little hard, but luckinly i got really op so did it first try and will never do it again as going to pasts are for boring people who hate their items.

oh ok at least that still sounds like shit to redo everything from 0 without even keeping your items i still have to open up paradox but i will try i did absolutely everything on this game before this new patch and i gotta say the worst thing for me was doing the random run playthrough
>random run playthrough Blessed mode you mean? when you switch guns constantly? Or D20?
Let me redpill you on the new funnest combo mode. Blessed rainbow mode playing as the gunslinger, that shit is actually fun and feels like a streamlined etg experience.

I got burnt out pretty hard on Nuclear Throne and this seems slower with dumber weapons, but I can still fire it up once in awhile for a solid session. Never had Gungeon click the same way.
Gavin Flores
is the update for switch already or only pc?

Fucking hell what did they do to Gamepedia's sites. So much space is dedicated to ads that adblocker can't get.
Loving the update so far, still wish they added a stats page(quickest run, enemy killed by most, fav weapon, etc) and also wish they added new trophies

>been playing for like 10 hours >vast majority of guns are gimmick meme guns that 4 times out of 5 are useless compared to the ones I start with >chests are almost always not worth it >can get up to the third floor without too much trouble but the first two floors are so monotonous, take so long and have such bad loot it doesn't feel worth even exporting them Please tell me it gets better, is there something that lets you breeze past even just the first floor?
it does change firing unless its a charge weapon it does change bullet speed so it makes no sense saying that anyway but it's right that it doesn't change reload speed
