At first glance, this game looks like it is supposed to appeal to the söyboy demographic -- it is full of overused memes, puts forced diversity in its playable characters, and the entire game has a whimsical theme.
Yet the actual game mechanics are the polar opposite of söy, that is, they embody autism: >huge amount of weapons and usable items, made doubly sophisticated by the game's synergy mechanics >difficult and does not hold your hand >has self-awareness and at least one layer of irony
What does the majority of Yea Forums think about this game? I have seen a lot of mixed reception on here. Also what are you favorite items? I like the daruma doll and the gungeon ant.
I dont like how RNG it is. You can get a god tier gun or shit and just die. The core movement feels good. I wish they implemented item tiers or maybe drop weighting. I dont like wasting 2 hours on shit runs.

Fair enough, thanks user.

nuclear throne is better

>Devolver Bootleg Why did they do this?

a smash leak thread died for this...
Oliver Garcia
It's a mediocre Issac clone.
Let's talk about how awful the arcade game looks instead. I'm sure some losers will buy them, but holy fuck. I laughed when they picked up the unconnected Namco guns and "fired".
Jack Green
I feel proud. Take that back to the containment cell on
It's too borong for me and slow. I don't give a shit about onions politics or buzzwords. Obviously you will appreciate it more if you put the hours in gittin gud but it just wasnt fun. I'd play it for a fee minutes and get the itch to play nuclear throne.
Xavier Russell
my opinion after 20 hours >most guns feel like shit and/or are shit >barely get items at all, i had to buy them in the shop always >even after opening 10 chests in a run only got 2 passive items and 3 shitty guns rest were fucking ammo boxes >game throws ammo at you like candies dont know why i saw people complaining about it >soundtrack is pretty fucking good >also the game looks like it has been through a lot of Quality of life changes and thats actually good as it shows the devs care
this has been the most tedious and repetitive rouguelike i ever played second to isaac but i would still recommend it for people that love the genre as the design its very unique
Juan King
I thought i liked rogue lites since i loved spelunky and nuclear throne but almost every one ive bought since has been pure shit.
Jack Cooper
Most of the guns are decently good against non-boss enemies besides the four or so that are intentionally bad.
Zachary Cooper
They at least added a turbo mode. I can't imagine going back to original speed Gungeon.
Dylan Wright
Gungeon is overpriced trite. It’s like Nuclear Throne but slower and more boring.
Dominic Lewis
Enter the Gungeon still has a fast pace even if it's not as fast as Nuclear Throne. You can't speedrun it in less than 8 minutes and that is a good thing.
Mason Fisher
>one black guy and one brown girl >forced diversity Yeah I bet the Demo in TF2 is "forced diversity" to you too, nigger.
Gavin James
Nuclear Throne looks fucking ugly. I don't understand the appeal for that eyesore of a game
Easton Ross
Gungeon is slow and tedious. Nuclear Throne is better because it doesn't waste your fucking time and the guns hit with more impact.
Dylan Wright
Actually my problem is the strong independent womyn character. Hunter is pretty great except for her shocking lack of porn.
>only 2 passive items I would recommend you checking out the latest patch. They make it so that you would get 1 gun/item and 1 passive every floor from chest. If you would get a gun in one chest, you would be guarantee to get a passive in the other.
Nolan Hughes
Its gonna be free on the epic store
Joseph Martinez
huge time sink but not perfect game by any standard
We don't even know about the character like, at all. We got to control them and kill their pasts, but barely anything else about them. The rest is mostly lore about the Gungeon itself so I would think that your headcanon here is a bit much. For all I know, the different character colors might just be their for visual identification sake.
Thomas Price
It is. Söy = can't handle complexity, oversocialized and obsessed with emotion. Autism = can't handle simplicity, undersocialized and obsessed with objects.
David Gonzalez
This. The dev even acknowledged and tried to fix as many of them as they can. But since the engine was to hard to implement many things, they basically end up saying that they have to redo everything from scratch.
Alexander Jackson
>söy >oversocialized mi amigo you're mixing up the definition of söy and normie, most normies are not söyboys
Eli Richardson
Why are the white characters made to be criminals while the brown minorities have hero roles? Dodge Roll seems to have things mixed up.
It's a more refined isaac with better visuals and takes skill to exceed at. Nuclear throne is pure garbage, please disregard anyone who claims otherwise.
Anthony Cooper
> more refined isaac what are you talking about they tried to emulate isaac by adding tons of items / gun hoping it would do the trick the vast majority of items / guns in EtG are trash and / or unfunny most isaac items are shit too but the synergies works pretty well in general the 'synergies' in EtG are laughable and forced
> isaac is good > EtG is shit
Xavier Roberts
Advertising + Easy money + Good PR + Give some good devs some work They want you to be aware of their catalogue.
Jaxon Williams
Yeah the white characters feel unappealing, they seem like Hollywood caricatures and not actual people. I prefer playing Hunter despite her being a negress. I just wish you could see her panties when she dodge-rolls but they quite regrettably didn't draw that
Most roguelike-like games have many more characters than this and which drastically change the gameplay instead of just having a few different starting items.
>What does the majority of Yea Forums think about this game? I think it looks cool, but we don't have arcades we're I live, so unless it gets ported to PC or consoles I won't be able to play it.
James Gutierrez
The only people I know that even like Gungeon are normie söyboys.
Sebastian Wright
Well that is who they advertise to. Yet the game itself is far from being the simplified shit they would normally play.
Benjamin Lopez
>difficult lmao
Zachary Ortiz
The game has legitimate Touhou-esque daka patterns. youtu.be/NjFRmHba3wI When this is the challenge level you find in roguelike-like games, then yes I would definitely say Enter the Gungeon is difficult.
