Ok so I been sitting on doing this post. Since everytime a deepwoken post exist there’s at least 10 arguments there.
But anyways I people to share their thoughts on how they think it’s good or how they think it’s bad depending on if they like deepwoken or not.
based on what i’ve seen from it, it looks like a good game, though its hard to judge since i haven’t played it. If you’re fine with permadeath, it’s probably gonna be fun.
It’s had more effort put into it than most games on the genre, as well as being a relatively unique and fresh experience with better combat
the issues is that since it’s permadeath and encourages pvp, along with rather bad balance, makes it really bad
I’d actually call deepwoken a Good game, and no this isn’t influenced by me playing it recently. Currently all the “bad” design choices like luck, incentive to gank freshies (unless your an asshole of course), barriers (like not being able to progress due to ability to not being able to defeat a certain enemy), etc. are basically gutted and if not being completely removed in verse 2, It isn’t really for everyone however as it still is pretty unforgiving and challenging, so you gotta put in the weeks, and potentially months to actually be DECENT at the game. In terms of roblox i’d actually say its currently the best game on the platform that is currently avaliable, by a LONGSHOT considering that most games on the platform are souless, boring anime games/ simulators, and even the “better” games sadly just don’t have enough quality put in them or rarely get updates anymore. The only complaint i’d put in about it currently is that the community is pretty ass and the dev communication with the community is abysmal, also the meta is extremely unstable so even builds with what is considered extremely high HP can get decimated by hitting a hilarious flamecharm + wind true combo.
Verse 2
i havent played deepwoken so i cant say anything for myself but it seems like a pretty good game on the topic of exploration and customization
Honestly it is pretty good
However, the pvp and community mess can sometimes be annoying when you only want to progress. (Voidwalker exists)
The parry system is neat but you need to have good timing (apparently a dw player played wom afterwards and was a god of perfect blocking in pvp)
deepwoken is a good game with a lot of bad design choices. I feel like the devs were pressured into a permadeath game by the community without fully understanding what their goal for the game even is. At its core, deepwoken is a souls game and soulslikes tend to lean heavily into PVE and boss fights. Deepwoken on the other hand leans more into PVP, possibly because of community pressure and experience with rogue lineage. Permadeath isn’t a bad mechanic, but in the case of deepwoken it should have been tailored towards the PVE system instead of encouraging PVP.
deepwoken is great parrying training for ao
Looks like I am gonna be a god at ao
Don’t forget the 40+ dmg dagger builds
neon Knights:
Isnt that just Roblox Heroes! but with a higher budget
yeah, with npcs pretty much.
pretty fun 
(get friends to play the game with trust me its a lot harder and less fun to have to solo the entire game)
It’s fun I wouldn’t say the best
Deepwoken just has a lot of shit design choices
i dont play it but it seems okay-ish, the only part that somewhat put me off is how toxic the playerbase is ( said to be )
permadeath isnt really my thing but i can deal with it, as long as it’s because of my stupidity and not because some max level guy killed me
and unlike rogue im pretty sure you arent required to kill other players to progress certain stuffs either
in short, 7-8/10
