agreed but it does tedious and hella repetitive tho
opposite for me tbh, the divers are dying on mass for a reason after their first month(s) and barely living to where akira is. i also like the vibe of fighting each other as mindless brutes like u do outside of the depths is a death sentence for both of u. regardless of your differences, i.e how the vibe early tundra had when no one knew anything about it cause it was kept secret.
many already die to mobs in depths mainly due to being many swarming, myself included but it can get underwhelming when literally nothing spawns and as u said the depths trials being easy. (i donāt cheese cause thats boring as hell even if itās unreasonably hard)
but like imagine this (minus the fact that this is a run where you have to have a net gain of time, aka you earned more than you lost) in deepwoken to escape the depths, or even go deeper into the depths, it would be awesome!
For someone whoās played for around 700 hours on this game. I can tell u why this game is very unbalanced.
If you donāt have a 700 HP build your dead. The average hp for the average build is around 400- 500 And you can one shot people I have literally tested a one shot with people yes you needed some luck but still it would do two bars of damage even without some of the multipliers. And The mantras are stupid doing the bar per hit. After freaking whoās the masters flourish. And some enchants are just stupid good. I have a build that can do 200 damage In 4 hits. Thatās just stupid and I have one of the best enchants on there.
The sea. As many people know itās just a very bland and just takes forever to get places.
Pvp. Honestly itās probably the best PVP Iāve seen on Roblox Tho can Exploited. And the try Hards are very stupid. Also the talents can make it where doing something that usually benefits you can just screw you. Like getting posture broken after hitting someoneās block like what. Iām not even that bad at PVP Iām pretty good at it. And I win a good amount of chimes. Also itās too easy to span mantras. And they do too much damage.
Pve not the greatest I will not lie. You have to stand still most the time which I donāt like. And the bosses are not really the most fun. Especially Duke since Iāve had to do it millions of times from my bell o speaking of bells.
Bells. Most of them are pretty balance The crazy slots and the new gravity bell arenāt . You can just trap people in Gravity bill and heal and crazy slots allows you to do a bunch of damage. Especially if you have a good enchant.
Adventure. thereās many secrets itās not like, rogue where exploration is a big thing because you go to like a couple islands during the game and thatās all. Plus the overworld is just bland and boring.
Ping and bugs. Ping was a bigger issue during the start of the game since you couldnāt pick your server. Itās slightly better now but this is literally the only game I get such a horrible lag and the bugs are horrible. There is so many times I have died to a bug I donāt even know if this might how many times. Especially if youāre in the Duke fight.
The depths. Itās a fun place but very bland. People only come here to grind it( or rarely visonshaper)
Conclusion. Thatās basically all itās a game where you can have fun with friends but itās very buggy and very unbalanced.
deepwoken is very hard to play with my usual 300ping so i didnt get into it
pros;
design and music is cool
gameplay is actually skill based (SOMEWHAT)
strong left
cons;
toxic community (literally almost got wiped by a power 60 when i was a freshie)
like i said before, very hard to play with high ping
as much as permadeath is one of the main points, permadeath is not very cool. especially a permdeath pvp game
oh wow no handholding!!! while i respect the developers dedication to that idea, the fact that im kinda encouraged to look up a deepwoken guide just to play is stupid. when i start playing, i should kind of know how the game works enough that i dont need to look at a wiki every 5mins
like, come on! they couldnāt at least make a map you could open up to see where islands are that youāve explored, maybe also have directions on how to find islands that npcs told you about? thatās not hand holding, thatās basic game design
I swear, one of the reasons why 70% of level 60s havenāt seen some of the map (apart from wiping because bad talents) is because itās out of the way and the void sea is scary enough to discourage exploring
like, a map that lets you see that some of it is not filled out would definitely encourage looking around, and then people may use the sea gate to the left of etris docks
i could honestly pop out two power 60s rn but my main file canāt find akira and iām not searching for that idiot and wait for a better way to uncap willpower
and the second file i have has a lot of loot that iām too lazy to transfer over, while also needing depths bell progression and i donāt wanna fight 48 enforcers man
but most of the time i wipe myself by playing around at power 40-47 or wipe intentionally cause the build bores me which is 90% of the time usually
