Deep Rock Galactic is the prime example of a game where I was extremely hyped by user reviews on steam and it ended up being a merely good game. I gotta give reviews, especially user reviews on steam less importance.
I was expecting there to be a lot more content and a lot more progression and leveling of skills and gear. It’s been out of early access for a while, so I reckon there won’t be coming much more regularly.
It’s concept however is very nice, it has been a lot of fun playing in coop for a couple of sessions until you far too early reach a point where you feel you’ve done this already. The biomes are beautiful and the mission types that are in there are distinct enough, so that exploring the procedurally generated caves is quite fun. But the payout after each mission has got to be the least exciting ‘filling of bars’ and ‘accumulating $$$’ I’ve ever experienced in a game.
It’s a shame we have abandoned this already after beating the campaign, because I feel like the game never really reached its full potential.
