Poll of the Day > Is Deep Rock Galactic worth checking out?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Looks pretty cool. Was wondering if anyone here had played it and is it worth getting the early access.

My friend and I briefly played it so I cannot comment too much on it. We got it since it has that Left 4 Dead vibe in a different setting. The different objectives (i.e. gather X amount of this, repair that, rescue this, etc.) made it feel less repetitive than simply trying to get to the safe room. The different classes and their specialty made it interesting as well. I focused on the engineer which can build turrets and create platforms to get around.

That being said, I feel the mining and digging around aspect of the game slowed it down enough that the repetitiveness of the game stood out, if that make sense. The annoying tentacle in the ceiling grabbing and disabling you also made the game annoying at times if your allies also get caught.

Overall enjoyable but repetitive game that I would wait for a sale before getting it. Definitely something meant for co-oping in my opinion.

Thanks for the input. I decided to pass for now and probably will wait for a sale like you said if I end up getting it.

It's great, one of the few L4D inspired games that do it right while doing thier own thing. It kinda suffers from some minor repetition issues though but the game gets updated every month and has come a really long way since it's release in early 2018 and it just had it's biggest update yet.

It should be played with a full group or atleast 3 people, it's possible to do solo and not completly unenjoyable but you'll quickly realize just how much you need the multiple traversal options each class has to make exploration quick and efficient.
