Damn I just assumed that this game will be a sequel with similar gameplay so I was really excited. My fault for not paying attention I guess, seems like the info's been out for a while. I don't even enjoy horde shooters normally, DRG is the only exception and the mining and exploring is the main attraction to me. I really hope the devs realize that DRG has it's own playerbase and don't abandon it.
So what the fuck happened with Ghost Ship Games? How did they go from something as good as DRG to something as middling (and le heckin transheartingly WOKE) as Rogue Core? Like why didn't they just make it so that instead of everyone having to share upgrades, everyone just got 3 or 5 random ones like the machine events. (Trit deposit, Omen, Ebonite). I'm sure the fugly neanderthal-looking female dwarfs was probably from the Embracer Group. But the other stuff I just don't get unless all the people behind the good shit in DRG left like with most game studios that fall off. Also no mission control (or unique ores aside from green Nitra) (or anything similar in quality) so the game sucks regardless
How does this game compare to Helldivers? Are they similar enough that if a person already has DRG there's not much reason to branch out to Helldivers too?
A buddy and i were discussing about getting the game(mostly him, but since we play drg together occasionally, he wanted me to get it) after taking a day to watch reviews we reached the same conclusion. Rogue core is basically the zoomer version of DRG.
Is like they heard the retards that complain that the downtimes in DRG are boring because theres nothing to shoot at and decided to make a game around that. Now assuming im right, they decided to cater to the wrong part of the community. Instead they should had made a direct sequel with new mechanics and ways to go around doing objectives, maybe include space mining and we get a cool little ship to min surrounding asteroids and such. Expand customization and add new classes. Like they have the solid foundation but they decided to go with rogue core. Lastly i dont really give a shit about the female dwarf inclusion because ive played with women in drg and they wanted to have their own female dwarf so it is whatever, my main problem is how ugly it looks.
When designing rogue core, the main design principle was "We need an excuse to shoehorn in a woman into a game about roughneck miners." and everything else came secondary, which probably explains why its so shit.
