Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

Can't see any posts for this.

I have put in over 51 hours. It's well worth a grab as it's very addictive and fun. It's a top down shooter with the main goal to mine resources and stay away from the nasties.

It's on Steam for £9.99 and has very positive reviews.

Seen quite a few streamers playing this and it does look fun and for a tenner a bargain

I like the look of it. And I am tempted.
But does it get a bit repetitive?

DRG is a bit repetitive! Depends if you like this kind of game and are happy to play alone. That's the real draw to DRG... This is a completely different game in so many ways, it may as well not share the name.
Not for me anyway..

It's a bit like a more nuanced Vampire Survivors, the mining and environments you're in mix things up quite well, as does the playstyle between the characters and classes.

I really enjoy it, good drop in and out sort of game for when you're short on time. I often play stuff like that while having downtime during the day, just pause and tab out when I need to do something else.

Bought it but didn't play it for very long... it just didn't grab me as much as other games from the genre...
Halls of Torment and Yet Another Zombie Survivors, for instance

Is DRG much different?
I’ll have to check it out.

Ok sounds good for a quick blast.
I’ll have to check out Vampire Survivors too.

Yet Another Zombie Survivors looks good, I’ll have to watch some of it.
Thanks.

I've not played this, but top down shooter which is single player.
Yes.
DRG is repetitive, but I find it fun because of the team aspect.
You still basically just shoot stuff.
Not saying this game isn't good. I've no idea really, but other than the name I'm not sure it shares enough to be interesting to someone who likes DRG and wants more.
For those, better to have more content in DRG, which I'd love because it can be fun.

This was on offer the other week for a couple of quid less. It's good fun to play on a hand held, with nice graphics and easy pick up n play fun.
