    What I love about ROR2 is it takes game design back to pure video games for video game's sake. Like a proper arcade game. Shoot monsters, they drop money (because reasons), you spend the money on random chests that are lying around (for reasons), where you might find hooves, feathers or syringes (because reasons) so you can keep up with the scaling difficulty (which exists for reasons) all just see how long you can go (high score) . It's so damn pure and fun. it doesn't need to justify why any of it exists or what the stakes are bla bla. it's what a game should be imo. The replayable rogue-lite nature of the whole thing is just the icing on the cake. (I also happen to have many hours in POE, Warframe, Deep Rock and in Rocket League)

The coop is built on the simple idea of make it from point a to point b survive at all cost. Loots random each time the flow of the experience changes each time except for some scripted events. Just shooting zombies with your buds and chilling. Unless your on max difficulty then your white knuckling your way through hell 😂

    Get more health on the skill tree, get some armor items (and granite flask from the quest) and make sure to have 4links and act 10 kitava is a walk in the park. Getting 1tapped every time you enter means your character must've had absolutely no defense whatsoever and probably a very low health pool. The attack patterns are pretty telegraphed, you'll get the hang of it in a couple of minutes. Sure once you know what you're doing many things become optional at that stage and it's more about getting into red maps asap, but for starters investing more into defense is a good way to learn mechanics and patterns even if your dmg will suffer in the process. The tradeoff is worth it because once you know what to look for you'll never fail again.

Its a shame with the toss and turns Tarkov's been through, but I'm hopeful for its future. Regardless of its state however, anytime you invite your friends to play with you instantly turns it into a blast, regardless of if things go perfectly, or completely wrong during a raid Edit: Forgot to mention another game that's close to entering a similar ranking of the other 2 games, Picked up Star Sector recently after watching a video over it, really sucked me in after a day or 2 of getting used to the game, highly recommend checking it out, a lot of people give away their own CD keys for others to playtest.

I have 2000 hours in siege, and the thing that keeps bringing me back is this cycle of "preparation, execution, outcome" using each of those stages as their actual own building block to either learn an error in your strategy or execute a good round. Having played other rogue lites (and a bit of ror2) this was my first impression there as well. You jump in (picking whichever character you think will work best for you) go from room to room and level to level and see how far you can make it based on both your skill and your luck. While also (the neat thing about rogue lites) making a little progress each time, no matter how far you make it. And knowing that thanks to the rng aspect the next run could go completely different. POE is a more direct example of this, since you can progress for hours on end slaying enemies, going through dungeons and constantly getting stronger while also facing slightly stronger enemies as you go on. And with tarkov it's self explanatory. Get gear, use gear to get better gear, wipe and repeat. Once you have a good loop and satisfying gameplay to boot players can be hooked for years, sometimes even without major updates. Although, obviously games that constantly update like tarkov and POE can keep their grip on you for longer. Unless they screw up an update, but shit happens right?

    and now compare how many games succeed in hooking players for years now compared to 2000s . while games are a lot more in number now the quality of the average game compared to back then has dropped substantially

    Furi is a big one when it comes to ruining other games for me, it’s such a fantastic combination of bullet hell, melee combat, and fast paced gameplay. A huge factor in it is just that the controls are so tight and your inputs are pretty much instantaneous, with very short animations behind all of your moves. Furi feels so good to play that it’s hard to get into some games because they feel slow paced. Even Elden Ring I couldn’t get into because it felt too slow for me. Furi’s probably the primary reason I main Huntress and Merc in ROR2, their fast-paced playstyles are exactly what I’m looking for in games but simply cannot find.

    Furi's pretty awesome. Each boss is tailored to your moveset, all having specific telegraphing and timings, which if you learn of each boss' patterns, you can take advantage of all kinds of little openings to slice, shoot, or charge up attacks. I really enjoy how both the player and the bosses have snappy attack animations, and the way that if they do something, there's a decent chance that you have your own move to counter them with. And the way the game give both sides multiple health bars, adding to this feeling of both sides being a boss battles to eachother. And there's a bunch of other things that I don't really know how to talk about (some other little things like paralleling effects of where you and the bosses having cool glowy effects upon charging moves). But if anyone sees this that hasn't played Furi and is looking for a relatively short (5-10 hours) and challenging game (with a pretty cool primarily synth/darkwave soundtrack), I suggest you go and get and play Furi.

    I really like this style of content from you, fire video. Edit; if you love the customisation style in POE then i'd recommend. Divinity Original Sin 2, it has you select a 'class' at the start but it's fully customisable even in the creation, the way the abilities work is very similar to POE, just as a CRPG format, story and characters are also great btw. not nearly as chonker as the POE skill tree of course tho.

    If you know of any good beginner PoE channels, I'd love to give the game a try. Literally when you brought it up in the video, I tried to find an up to date beginner guide for some kind of minion build, and all of the videos were either pretty old or clearly meant for veterans because of all the skill tree/word vomit that was going on. It's the same reason I dropped the game the first time only 15 or so hours in, I wish there was a more central resource for helping people get over that hump.

    PoE isn't the kind of game where updates "remove" or "kill" certain playstyles entirely - just reduce their effectiveness. so, chances are, a build that looks interesting to you that is under 2-3years old will still work, in some or all of its capacity. I can't recommend specific beginner channels for minion players but Ghazzy is a well-known minion guy and Zizaran is pretty much "the beginner PoE guy"

    I know this comment is old, but as an avid player of every game you mentioned I figured I'd chime in. PoE is definitely not 'easy', as you get to the top of content there is very difficult bosses and dungeons that require perfect gear, but there is also a lot of farming that can be very easy, but necessary, if you have a good build. Last Epoch is fairly fun, the general complexity lies fairly smack between D3/4 and PoE, and personally I think the game has a solid base built, but when I played it last (a couple months ago) it still doesn't have near the same polish as the other two, nor the same amount of content that PoE offers. I would highly recommend Last Epoch for anyone looking for that nice middle-ground in complexity, as long as you keep in mind it is still in Early Access so it might not have the same amount of content or polish as of yet.

If the devs know how to make a game not feel like itself after hours of gameplay and make it seem always different thats the game for me too!! They know how to grasp the players attention and how to keep them playing!!

    idk if you have a vr headset but if you enjoy Escape From Tarkov I highly recommend you try out Into the Radius, it's like Tarkov mixed with Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl technically it's a horror game but it's not your typical horror game. It's kinda similar to Subnautica in the way that it's not meant to be scary but it ends up being kinda creepy at some parts. If you're not used to scary games and want a good place to start I cannot recommend enough that you play Into the Radius (if you have a vr headset)

    I have around 1k hours in Tarkov, absolutely loved playing it with my brother for the last ~3 years. Got to around lvl 40+ for 5 or 6 wipes. The cheater thing just made both of us stop playing. After that video came out we started getting more people blatantly cheating in every game, like voice chatting and calling our ingame names out or speedhacking around. The game's netcode or backend is apparently full of holes and allows for people cheating because of how not secure it is. I hope their anti-RMT measures are at least flattening the curve somewhat. As it stands I can't really play the game anymore because of how you regularly/easily lose sooo much time and progress to cheaters
