Title: Deep Rock Galactic
Post by: main on October 26, 2017, 06:13:11 AM
Let me introduce you to Deep Rock Galactic (http://store.steampowered.com/app/548430/Deep_Rock_Galactic/)

Join a team of badass space dwarves in this stylish 1-4 player co-op FPS. Fight, dig and explore your way through enormous procedurally generated cave systems, uncover the riches, and make it out alive...

I am in closed alpha and I really like it, great atmosphere and coop. Also devs are very nice, working closely with the community.

There is a public Open Alpha weekend on Steam, which is running from November 9th - 12th. Register here https://www.deeprockgalactic.com/#openalpha-section

Managed to get on last night with sith. I think Jamoe tried though we couldn't hear his mic :(

I absolutely loved this. It's slow to start but picks up pace very quickly. The graphics feel spot on and it plays very well for an alpha. I'll likely be scooping this up when it's released.

Nah, I accidentally joined the discord room and my headset needed charging. I wasn't playing just seeing if anyone had jumped on it.

I've played a few games, good fun although I'm not convinced it has lasting gameplay.

I know what you mean about lasting gameplay. We do have a heavily stripped down alpha version though... so there is that. No idea what the beta or even final release will be like.

Yeah definitely one to watch if our excitement wasn't made clear from the Closed Alpha builds we tried out!

I'm a fan on sea faring shenanigans but decided that this month is Final Fantasy XV. It got great reviews and is all in DLC and everything for one price which was good to see because many of these AAA titles would opt to sell the DLC separate even if the game has been out on console for a year.

The space dwarves are still looking at 1 - 2 years in early access according to their release blog dude, and a few of us are going to be fairing the seas anyway :D I'm one of them!
