Risk of Rain 2 is SUCH a satisfying game once you get into its mechanics. Every character except Commando has something unique and interesting to play around with, which you don't see often in videogames, especially roguelikes. Although the multiplayer can be a bit laggy, it's a blast to play this with friends as well. My only real and strong criticism for this game is that enemies either are no threat whatsoever, or a HUGE threat that has to be dealt with or fled from immediately if you do not want to be one-shot, especially on higher difficulty levels. With the introduction of Survivors of the Void, the DLC, this problem becomes even larger, which is why I did not rate the DLC very high. It introduces a lot of interesting items and the void enemies are very fun, but the risk (haha) of playing becomes a lot bigger. Thankfully, I came up with ways to deal with this and I still had a great time.
