poco so good

I've completed this game. I have seen everything it contains. I saw everything this game contained by hour 5, maybe 7. From there, it was mindless grinding for completion because i'm dumb. I did not enjoy this game past hour 5. This game does not have much content, none of the items do anything interesting. All of the items change the number of tiles in your deck, weapons might change the number of attacks you can make.

I kept playing this game looking for the sauce, there is a lot of potential for interesting and very unique mechanics, unfortunately none of it is used. A run takes anywhere from 40-80 minutes for a successful run, you will have gained maybe 15 tiles for your deck from what you started with, maybe. Your build will never be interesting, it will only be defined by your character's favorite tile type. Your build will never engage with anything differently than how another build will. In fact, your build should always consider whatever you saw last run, because aside from loot drops and maybe where your healing is placed (if you need it), your run will encounter the same enemies and the same bosses every time.

I wish I could recommend, as this game is an entertaining idea for a couple hours or 5, but fails to live up to it's own potential and has no re-playability past your first win.

It's fine if you get it for like 4 bucks or something maybe. It has a few good ideas but is extremely repetitive and boring. There is no challenge until the last few levels, which feel more like just too much stuff on screen rather than interesting problems. Extremely simple beat-em-up that is fine for what it is but gets too repetitive. Perhaps the worst things in this game are the menus and options. Who even makes a game nowadays that doesn't let you quit a level on the pause menu? Huh? If you can't give me a retry button, at least let me quit level so i can start again. 20 minutes of mild amusement followed by 4 hours of annoyance.

Fakin it is pretty good, but mostly for making it work remotely, I would love it if they added remote function to the old fakin' it because the prompts in this one are obviously nsfw so i can't use it with some people.

Dirty Drawful is what it says on the tin, drawful with dirty prompts. I'd rather play the other ones with custom prompts.

Let me finish is not very fun, the pictures and the prompts all feel very samey and somehow time moves slower while playing. 8 rounds is too many. Let me finish sucks.

This pack, for $20, containing only 1 game that me and my friends want to play is pretty bad value, and it would better to just play the old fakin it in person.

They aren't going forward with the account linking. True Democracy has won... for now. Be at attention divers.

Anyways this game is fun, I started playing a few days ago and already have 17 hours. You shoot a lot of stuff and make stuff go boom

The devs do not understand what makes this genre fun or interesting. If they do, they are not implementing it.

The upgrades are not fun. You only have 4 weapons, 4 passives, and once these are chosen, your reroll tokens do not matter since all future upgrades will only be minor stat increases, and you will just choose the one that has the shiniest color. It is not like vampire survivors where upgrades make your items do interesting, fun, and unique things upon having invested upgrades into them. Your talent tree might make the game interesting, but it is generic.

If all your game does is make me want to play Brotato, it is not a good experience, and needs revising.

And now, a list of things I am not happy with:
-No options to change controls.
-Once you go past the character explanation and naming screen, it is not convenient to see what a class's power is.
-No tutorial.
-You can use WASD and arrow keys to navigate options, but space bar doesn't work for choosing!
-Enemies have no dying animation, they just pop out.
-Currently, no items or characters or anything meaningful to work towards, besides leveling up.
-The characters are blatant knockoffs of the pathfinder iconics, weird since they have access to those. I would have preferred something more unique personally. The wizard is literally Ezren, even his staff is the same.

A list of things I do like:
-Paizo
-Bosses as a concept, I did like the way the first boss telegraphed his attacks and they were very visually clear.
-The projectiles fired by enemies stood out against the dark background and felt like they were a good speed for early enemies.

I hate this game but I guess it's ok. Very fun with friends.

They managed to create a very cinematic experience that can last a maximum of 5 hours, after that you're playing a goofy multiplayer game.

Visuals are good, sounds are good.
Balance is trash.
Perks are fun.
Hackers aren't fun.
Characters are cool and usually fun.

Progression can take THOUSANDS of hours, do not think that you'll be able to get every perk on every character, but BHVR likes to hand more and more bloodpoints out the smaller their playerbase gets so that helps.

Good story. Fun enough gameplay.
This game isn't incredibly spectacular, but it's a good game that deserves to be played. The score is great, the graphics and the city are very pleasing to the eye.
The age of the original shines through in this remake, but to me that increases the charm, and gives me faith that I'm playing a better version of the original.

cool game, great soundtrack, not gonna play it

skeleton is cool

This game is better than the first, they fixed most of the issues with progression being awful (still dumb tho). I can say had fun with the game, that is, until I came to an area that required me to have a certain upgrade and I couldn't bring myself to backtrack through multiple areas looking for a dumb key. The combat is simultaneously better and worse than the first game, on one hand the enemies are cooler and there are more bosses, on the other hand the enemy placements aren't very fun. The variety is still bad.
