I’ve become really bored of most games, including AO, for now anyways, and I’ve heard a lot of stuff about deepwoken, and I’m at odds as to whether I should. So ig I may as well see everybody’s opinion (even if this forum has nothing to do with it)
And if I should, should I wait until it’s discounted (assuming last time wasn’t just a one off thing)
It’s worth a try, anyone denying that is a hater.
The Arch-Hater has arrived
The game is actually pretty fun it can be difficult and I’m not playing it currently because the recent updates have been mid but if you’ve never played there’s a lot of content there that’s worth the 400 robux if you give it a chance you’ll have fun with it and it normally goes on sale around Halloween or Christmas btw
In my honestly opinion, only buy it if you have way too much free time and are aquainted with how shitty humans can be.
Keep in mind that you share the game with “people” who have nothing else to do in their lives but cause you misfortune
if u join dont trust nobody
If you do play, leave any server with a large number of players from the same guild
just like ao…
Yeah except there are actual stakes when you get ganked
yeah the stakes are just like u go insane
got the heartbeat going 140 smh, we dont like
have someone that also plays deepwoken
as this game basically has cartels, orcas and yakuzas (also mafias but name isnt fancy) just like our favorite countries but are represented as clans
keep yourself from them, no dirty hands and be aware of unreasonable wrath
no one can fix them
just play and pray they say, its some of real fun but also grief
find cool stuff and never stick to your own character too much
Customization is a trap, ya hear?! A TRAP, A God Damn INFERNO Of a TRAP!!!
(your character dies for real if you are in a version of Hell being Depths)
never make hot character, you’ll get wipped, just… make them look repetitive or more npc like
more hope will be upon your game
lore is “meh… (plays other game for lore)”, its basically about drowned gods and deepwoken people that are all cool and have bits of drowned gods powers but players are deepwoken too..? whatever, duke ishamon erisia and ferryman are currently a couple, there’s also shopkeeper roland in the depths, layer 2 having monsters that arent really monsters but different race, and shadow goverment wants world to die again
and no you dont have to buy a new slot once you die, you just lose most progress and thats it
i left sane
so game is solid “eh.. could be better”
its peak, wait for the devs to stop being bums though (never happening!)
Im begging someone to buy the rights to deepwoken from the current devs and rollback to like, the start of verse 2
Except naktigonis keep him hes goated
I’ve met some absolute specimens in this game that have opened my eyes to the extents of human cruelty. They choose to ruin other’s day not for gain but entertainment. If you wanna really have fun then you should play with a Friend because then misery become comedy
You could also play Pilgrammed, it’s a relatively similar open world RPG but it doesn’t have random PVP or permadeath
possibly late but ultimately i think how much you enjoy the game (in the long-run) will depend on how much you can tolerate the open world pvp and permadeath
i hid it so the post wouldnt be massive because i wrote alot 
First deepwoken is definitely a well-made game and has more than enough very fun content in it to justify the 5 dollars/400 robux you need to pay for it
With that being said the permadeath is controversial even for a rogue-like and I believe there’s merit to those complaints. When you die permanently (called wiping by the playerbase, only happens when you die in The Depths) you get a certain amount of echoes depending on how much you achieved which lets you buy permanent upgrades for all future characters (nothing that could help in pvp though so dont worry about that)
So essentially, with each lost run what you gain is echoes and knowledge/experience that’ll help you go farther next time
the reason it’s controversial I believe is because for many that isn’t enough to justify it’s existence. Even with echoes as a mechanic it just seems slapped into the game to alot of people, and I don’t exactly blame them (even though i personally think the permadeath is alright, it could be better). Though the game is designed with an open-world, lack of main objectives, and possibility for long-term characters all in mind so what they can do with it is a bit limited
With that being said I think Deepwoken is genuinely one of the most well-made games on roblox and can be very fun once you start getting the hang of it (which didnt take me too long, its mainly getting used to the combat). There’s alot of experimentation you can do with builds with all the options you have and I find that just trying out new things is a fun part of the game. If you have friends to play it with that always makes it more fun
Another issue is has though is how hard it is to figure things out blindly. Beyond the core gameplay it’ll be really hard to find a lot of stuff… You will need the wiki (if you want to just browse the wiki for stuff you might like to do/see at any point feel free to just because of this. I really wish it wasnt like that but oh well)
Personally the most fun part of deepwoken for me was exploring and doing everything for the first time that was really fun (+ going from being scared of something to knowing exactly how to deal with it is fun too, thats one bonus the permadeath has i suppose)
If you dont want the chance of getting ganked, there’s always small servers, though itll probably require playing in a different region if its not late at night (ping compensation in settings will help). dont feel bad if you do this btw it doesnt matter how you wanna play at all
overall deepwoken is a good game but the permadeath is something to keep in mind since its enough to drive some people away, if you think you’d probably be fine with it all then I’d definitely say buy it
im sorry for writing alot i just have alot to say and couldnt condense it 
hard question. Permadeath is alright in deepwoken because the initial stages of progression (getting to power 20) is reasonable in terms of speed if you know what you’re doing. Pvp kinda meh but PvE is pretty alright. Personal preference honestly, you won’t know if its a good or a bad game unless you play it. One thing i love is the map design though.
play pilgrammed yes i approve this message
