Anyone else play this game?
It's pure dungeon crawling kino

>beat the evil boss guy
>get torn to shreds by the mob of apparently ordinary people at the tavern
Kinda seems like I didn't really need to go down there.

>>712682001 (OP)
Tried it for free, but man I fucking suck. Seems like its balanced for anything but solo.
Any good solo classes?

Is this any good? I enjoyed King's Field and Lunacid.
I'm hesitant because its a rogue like

Yeah I've actually been playing it with some friends, it's pretty cool. I need more multiplayer dungeon crawlers.

>>712682360
Cleric is pretty beefy and versatile.

>>712682360
I've beaten the game with a Vampire Monk and a Succubus Mage. Vampires are kinda blatantly OP IMO, so experiment with them. Also Conjurers, particularly human, seem really strong for beginners.

>>712683080
It's awesome, but a different genre entirely from the games you are mentioning. Barony is a love letter to traditional roguelike fans. It's like the devs made first person, real time, nethack.

>>712682001 (OP)
New content like playable gnomes when?

>>712683289
>>712683756
I haven't even tried the other races, are they locked or can you just access it all right from the start?

You know it's actually wild to me that off the top of my head this is the first dungeon crawl roguelike in firstperson. It feels like the ideal combination.
What even are the roguelike elements, what kind of meta progression is there?

>>712682001 (OP)
i like playing it on my steam deck

>>712683910
They're all locked except human. They change the game significantly so it makes sense.

>>712684010
I don't think there's any meta progression at all aside from unlocking other races. You die, your character is fucked.

>>712684010
>Roguelike elements
perma-death
item identification
cursed/ blessed items
random dungeon floor layouts (with some unique areas that are consistent)
Race and class combo replayability
Probably some other stuff I'm forgetting.

>>712682001 (OP)
I like it, but I imagine it is better co-op
Same with herpes of hammerwatch

>>712684154

>>712683756
>Races locked behind DLC
No thanks

>>712682001 (OP)
Game is 10 years old but I've kept hearing about it recently, did something happen?

>>712684448
>herpes of hammerwatch
damn i love playing that game, should i get myself checked?

>>712684546
You can play for free on steam right now. I don't think its free to keep more like a free weekend

>>712684549
Yes and play priest first

>>712682001 (OP)
beat it twice, one the normal run the toher the one were you reach hell, it was cool, very fun with friends but eventually it becomes clear that magic is always the way to go even if you start as a melee focus class

>>712684524
>sista doesn't know how to pirate DLC

>>712684524
Oh lol I thought they were unlockable in-game, that sucks.

>>712684524
Yes, the game came out fully complete and they expanded on it later. What's the problem?

Whats combat like? I keep hearing its dungeon crawling but it looks like you can move and shit which implies dodging attacks

>>712684785
Real time basic action combat with blocking, backstabbing, and stealth. It's really simple but works.

>>712684843
Can a retard play it?

>>712682001 (OP)
its one of those games that's most fun in multiplayer, but al the mods break with every single update and its a pain in the ass to find people to play with as a result
"no no we need THIS version with THESE mods!"
"nuh uh THIS version with ONLY THIS mod"
"no vanilla only"
"fuck off vanillafag"

>See special fountain
>Go up to drink it
>Succubus pops out
>2 rats start fucking me in the ass at the same time
>Succubus scares me stiff
>Steals my necklace and disappears
Bitch

>>712684996
does it even have any good mods

>>712684985
With the babby mode settings on.

>>712684996
>mods
I want to dabble but I want to at least finish a run before I do that, but I never even beat the 2nd floor.

still waiting on 16-player branch to come back so this image will ever be relevant

I plays it once but the Minotaur part scared me so I never plays it again

>>712685006
For me it was
>Find cool new amulet
>put it on
>it starts to strangle me
>cursed so I can't remove it
>die
And thats how I learned the importance of appraisal

>>712685240
can you die please?

Anyone wish Automatons were a bit better? It's the only other game where you can play TF2 Engie, but it's just kinda meh. You mostly just end up spamming bear traps and being really shit vs bosses. Maybe it's better in multiplayer? I'll never know cuz I don't have friends.

>>712685562
I did die

>>712682001 (OP)
Beaten it a few times, it's pretty great. It's actually the first time I've seen someone translate some roguelikes to first person real time gameplay so well. It's simpler than most actual roguelikes but not drastically so and being in real time means it's harder to try to play perfect. Even really enjoyable in co-op since it makes food even more of a pressure point than it already is. It was in a much worse state years ago but I'm amazed they got it to where it's at now, since it's pretty special. I hope they continue working on it

>>712685564
>Maybe it's better in multiplayer?
Night and day difference. With 5 turrets you can easily shred the minotaur, assuming you have cannon fodder friends who can tank.
>You mostly just end up spamming bear traps
Whenever I wasn't scrapping, eating or crafting I was making potions. Mechanist is the best support + dps powerhouse hybrid class.

>>712685208
how's 16 player work? do you just mob everything? pvp? bigger maps?

>>712682001 (OP)
is it your first videogame or something? painfully mediocre

>>712687085
Functionally identical to normal multiplayer with just the increased playercount afaik

>is it your first videogame or something? painfully mediocre

>>712687108
look who just showed up from frown town, lighten up a bit fag, it's good for your health

>>712684546
Crazy, I bought in 2015 and now I realized that is was actually updated for the last 10 years.

>>712687684
Don't forget all the new DLC you need to buy, lol

Wish I had friends who would play it with me, seems like it really shines when you have a party.
Maybe I should just swallow my pride and use some of the assistance items
