DW’s soundtrack bangs and Naktigonis popped off. I think this might be the best original soundtrack on roblox.

THE DUKES THEME GOES HARD ONG

@anon70689050

The Playerbase: DW players are either cinnamon-rolls or ruthless killers. There is no in-between. While toxicity is more of a problem with the roblox community and not the game itself, the gankers I met in DW did not surprise me at all. As annoying as they are, gankers are a Deepwoken staple and have been since the stone age which is why they’re worth mentioning. But what surprised me the most is the amount of chill players i’ve met.
There were 8 players who did not have the intent to kill. I hope that number rises. Not all DW players are mean.

Yeah today me, fish and Davis friend wig had to save warm water from a bitchless jetstriker

The Empty Sea: DW isn’t a sea-based game, so this isn’t a flaw. But that doesn’t mean that it can’t bug me. Afaik, the only threats in the sea are: Other players, The Dread Serpent, Obstructive wheather, whirlpools, and that’s it. Correct me if i’m wrong. The sea only exists for you to get from point A to point B and sometimes the sailing is just painfully slow or hard to control.

I’m still pissed at the fact that the devs hyped up the sea to be this scary dangerous place but I barely has shit

@WarmWater

rougelike

some consider it a rogue-lite which is fine enough, personally though i really see it as a roguelike, a bunch of things are determined by chance and you can loose everything reaches the criteria for me

@WarmWater

a real rougelike DOESN’T HAVE FUCKING VOIDWALKERS THAT CAN GANK A POWER 6

A real rogue-like will literally throw random bullshit you at every chance it has

[WarmWater]

that’s called a rage game

[CrimsonCreate]

I mean by that standard you can call TBOI, Noita, Spelunky, and Rain World rage games

[WarmWater]

I mean they’re more fair than power 20 voidwalkers

[CrimsonCreate]

@WarmWater

I mean they’re more fair than power

Have you played spelunky

[Jeffy]

yeah and you should. tho idk what you really mean with binding of isaac

[CrimsonCreate]

@Jeffy

tho idk what you really mean with binding of isaac

Well TBOI is much more skill based than the other three, but i put in there considering that bad item RNG, Room comboes, or the wrong boss can completely fuck over your run

[WarmWater]

counterpoint: the runs don’t take literal days to complete

[CrimsonCreate]

i mean tbf with the new progression update its actually shit easy to get to level 20 in under 10 hours as long as your good at the game

@WarmWater

I mean they’re more fair than power 20 voidwalkers

The voidwalkers are supposed to have a level close to your level to be able to hunt you down+how the fuck you getting attacked by more voidwalkers than a server can hold+your jordans are fake

[OhHey]

I guess the phrase “we all start somewhere” really applies to Deepwoken

[WarmWater]

do you know what power 20 means

[anon49231511]

day 4 i can still barely do jack shit

[fish]

@Zel

Yeah today me, fish and Davis friend wig had to save warm water from a bitchless jetstriker

This truly was a Deepwoken

[WarmWater]

and then I get sent to depths by a shitty voidwalker and his power 20 friend

@CrimsonCreate

and too that i say, you haven’t played a REAL roguelike

real roguelikes don’t have pvp lol.
they don’t have multiplayer either.
RNG deliberately being bullshit just sounds like terrible game design lol.
I mean yea you can get unlucky but you’re making it sound like every roguelike is designed to be bullshit, which in that case, it is a rage game.

also what do you mean “Noita” that game is anything but random.

@TheoreticalExistence

real roguelikes don’t have pvp lol.
they don’t have multiplayer either.

Mfs will bring this up but bro it’s a videogame. Videogames are made to be flexible. Club penguin and fucking LoL are both MMOs. A feature like multiplayer and PvP isn’t going to change a games genre bro . Even if you are referring to “true” roguelikes i never considered deepwoken one (i don’t think anyone considers it one) so idk what you mean there

@TheoreticalExistence

RNG deliberately being bullshit just sounds like terrible game design lol.

Deepwoken definitely has pretty bad game design and i did make the argument that Deepwoken is heavily reliant on RNG but the whole point of RNG in roguelikes is that you overcome them with skill take TBOI for example, i made the argument that bad items can kill a run but that isn’t the case. You can easily overcome it by just, well, being good at the game . A bullshit game throws a bullshit with no rhyme or rhythm at you with the intention to piss you off, roguelikes throw something at you with the intention for you to learn whatever it threw and you and get better

@TheoreticalExistence

I mean yea you can get unlucky but you’re making it sound like every roguelike is designed to be bullshit, which in that case, it is a rage game.

While that isn’t every roguelike, yes that is the point of MANY roguelikes out there will throw a hard challenge at you, and yes it will throw bullshit at you but NOT intentionally, most of that will all come down to luck, not “bad game design”. Also what do you even consider a “Rage” game, there are many sources that just call games a “rage” game because they are high in difficult, not because they are actual bullshit take fore example cuphead

@TheoreticalExistence

also what do you mean “Noita” that game is anything but random.

Also noita weapons and items are randomly generated so idk what your talking about here (i mean the later levels aren’t though)
