I loved RoR2 and appreciate the effort they are putting into this game as a labor of love, but I really have to question if people care for a 2D RoR game after the sequel got so much attention.
RoR2 felt too.. balanced.. Too controlled.
The original allowed for nearly unlimited collection of items, and insane combinations.
For example: Collecting barbed wire and crowbars I 3 shot the final boss (one insta-kill for each form) directly after it spawned in.
You could loop infinately prepping and getting the wildest combination of items.
Personally, I enjoyed the hell out of both games, but RoR1 was a lot more fun with the insanity that could develop.
My buddy and I would loop through the stages until the game crashed. I wonder whether that's still going to be possible on switch
I had a multiple hour session where it got to the point where we weren't dealing with FPS we were dealing with SPF. I never did crash though! I couldn't even die lol
I am assuming they will be fixing the memory leak that caused that, as running it on Linux/ Steamdeck causes it to crash at the one hour mark consistently last I played.
