small etho moment people might have missed: 8:23 Tango: “you can’t sell an in game product for a non game product” Scar: “but-“ Etho: “sounds like a challenge”
One part of do2 I didn’t expect to like but really appreciate is just how much the hermits are hanging out because of it, like a massive gathering of like 5/6 hermits like at the start is usually only at like special events, but w/ do2 it’s just to make fun of bdub’s runs lol
And the most important part is: they are hanging out NOT because of they want to make more content for us. They are hanging out there OFFLINE, playing together, just having fun even without a need to do so. Feels like a lot of hermits want to play minecraft for the first time in a looooooong time.
The thing I find funny is that they built a waiting room that was basically only used on the first weekend and they don't hang out there and instead just hang out in the shop area
@@cazadon It seems to be the case that in that first week they didnt want to spectate any runs so that their own runs could be their first experience with the dungeon, but now that thats out of the way, anyone waiting is spectating the run rather than just waiting around
I think a really good indicator for Max Clank would just be an evil laugh from the Dungeon Master. Just a “Hhhahahahaaaa!” Low pitched, just terrifying as they hit max clank. Edit; I'm glad everyone likes the idea. I couldn't help but think of Baal's laugh from Diablo 2 as the clank signifies the spirits awakening in the dungeon and the dungeon starts collapsing fully. I hope Tango sees this and tries it out!
I didnt see timestamps for each run yet, so here they are 8:50 Bdubs run 1 setup 10:16 Bdubs run 1 start (95%) 17:34 Bdubs run 2 setup 19:08 Bdubs run 2 start (part of) 28:51 Bdubs run 3 setup 30:17 Bdubs run 3 start 38:31 Bdubs run 4 setup 40:05 Bdubs run 4 start 52:51 Bdubs run 5 setup 54:50 Bdubs run 5 start 1:08:22 Bdubs run 6 setup 1:09:55 Bdubs run 6 start 1:25:27 Scar run 7 setup 1:26:51 Scar run 7 start Like so more people can use this
im ngl Tango has to have some of the most patience ive seen in a person. Having to CONSTANTLY fix problems (and the banter/bickering from hermits) with a game that took him over a year to make and still finding issues and things hermits have just abused. I know all the programmers and all that are gonna be like "yea well it's like making a game with code" and yea but my point still stands here. This is insane dedication so thank you Tango!
Isn’t Tango a former programmer? Haven’t he written code for games before as I think he talked about a game he worked on that was canceled and never released?
@@cherrydragon3120 that and if you have ever done anything even slightly cool like this its a dopamine fueled experience having everyone enjoy your hard work, the first week or so is powered by everybodys appreciation, but as people get less appreciative and you get more tired of bug fixings etc. It gets more draining, hope tango can continue to enjoy the experience, as he put in so much and won't be able to do something this amazing in life too many times!
As people have said before, a forced death before entering the dungeon would help to avoid saturation min-maxing and people forgetting to take off armour, if you wanted to actively prevent any shenanigans.
Tango, you single handedly got all of the Hermits, even the ones who were on Hermitcraft vacation, to come together as a group and do a thing. This has been the most entertaining couple of weeks ever! I have watched almost every POV but especially yours. I am in love, obsessed, all of it. ❤amazing
A different perspective on the stew/ honey ordeal: I don't think any of the hermits were seeing it as a sneaky thing, like yes Grian and Scar were trying to be stealthy about it, but they also posted a video about it. I think to them it's all in good fun because they're excited about the game and want any advantage they can get to be able to play for longer. I get how from the game designer perspective it feels dirty and I'm totally on board with banning it, but just keep in mind that the Hermits aren't trying to make you upset, they're just having fun and being silly and loving the fruits of your hard work. They're your friends at the end of the day and will respect your wishes, they just need to be communicated clearly. Much respect man ❤
@@albertotensai yeah I know. The point was more that now there are currencies that they actually care about. Or would be if Tango let them use them as a currency outside DO2. Probably better that he doesn't.

When hermits are approaching max clank you could play ravager noises through the music disc system to confuse them and make them jumpy and run when there are no beasts. You could play into the dungeon spirits causing hallucination lore. Maybe even vex sounds to spook them out even more. Something confusing.
Hoodie idea: Dungeonmaster face (on the front) "The dungeon is ready for the next victim.", On one of the sleeves "Hazard kills." and on the back an image of your citadel.

Mojang just needs to hire tango to help implement something like decked out into the game. Like buy a compass from a villager n it takes you down into the deep dark or into a new dungeon structure and you get artifact. Something worth going for not sure about getting embers then buying cards. But just getting a compass and having to follow it into a dungeon full of beasts would be fun.. or have decked out be a map you can buy in the store and play it as it is.
I'm enjoying these uploads so much. Its so cool to see when things were recorded by getting glimpses of other hermits POV's and seeing when and where tango changed or fixed something based on how everyone else reacts!
Request to rename the raveger in the deathroom to "The End Game Janitor" ^.^ It's shorter and everyone knows they die there at this point. (Alsom Mrs Tango Merch should be a thing. And it just has a raveger face on the front, and a quote from your wife on back!"
Just wanted to say Tango that after watching Hypnos run where he figured out what the rusty repair kit does... he reached max clank on level 2 and realised he wouldn't be getting out due to all the water traps and stuff on level 1 that goes with max clank. I think it's a big enough thing now. He survived on the level 3 run because he had HP gain from berries. Without them he would have died multiple times. Just wanted to say you've done a great job, and Hypno hasn't been winning a lot of his runs recently (although they are epic to watch) because he doesn't have a defensive card investment. He's realised he needs more hazard and clank block now, because they are clearly negatively affecting him. The game is awesome, and the top player isn't too Op. Even reckless charge doesn't go of half the time, and isn't too Op. I don't know if you've changed it yet, and I think changing it is important, but if you haven't please don't stress. Everything is working amazing, the Hermits don't realise any faults or 'defects' and it's pretty competitive for who could win.
Decked Out merch ideas: You already mentioned "Hazard kills" which would be great, maybe with the hazard logo. A complimentary idea would be "Don't stumble" with the clank logo. Maybe something about greed for the treasure logo. "Learn to compass" or "Compass harder" might be good as well.
@@kardnails8729 It would be slower, but it would also be "fire and forget" so he could start the ride and then pop into freecam for observation as his "body" gets into place.
Nice! More DO2 content!!! It's getting harder to balance my productivity and Decked Out time... Idea for a max clank announcement... A one time announcement saying "Max clank reached... Hazard kills!" Not sure if that would be possible, but I could see that being quite unnerving to anyone that's been doing a long run in the dungeon.
It's so funny Bdubs really would have gotten 2/2 on his first 2 runs but the only broken compass spot was his target both times, and then a mod/resource pack doesn't render on one ravager and it hits him twice... his luck is horribly amazing but he's so funny it made good content. Thank you Tango for believing, even a little bit. EDIT: This game is fantastic, Tango deserves a retirement fund. or funding for DO3
Tango can definitely do whatever he wants with his game, but I just don't understand why having the stew (or using any other min-max methods) is frowned upon. If the hermits care about the game enough to figure out ways to maximize their chances of "winning", then why is that an issue? I'm just thinking this sort of methods appears in basically all kinds of games and it isn't anyone's "fault". Saying that hermits would "stoop to such levels" seems a bit harsh.
Regardless of source, saturation maxes out at 20, and eating a porkchop gives 13, so maxing it out with honey doesn't give as much of a gargantuan advantage as you might think. That's an extra 1 heart of healing (though obviously it's worth a lot in terms of sprint).
That's the issue, I hope whatever the rules will be, they should keep in mind how saturation works and find a solution to make everyone start at same hunger and saturation level. I suggested either maxing (20) the saturation with a stew for everyone, or death resetting to quarter (5) saturation. Both options create equal starting position for players.
@@juraj5927 Honestly this is why I think stew shouldn't be banned. If everyone is maxing their saturation no one has an advantage. And with the community chest full of stew it's not like anyone wouldn't be able to do it.
IMO, Tango is probably at little to involved with the running of the game in some of these aspects. It really isn’t fun to develop a strategy and then the GM immediately nerfs it. I get it, DO2 is his baby, but sometimes, it’s fine for players to develop strategies. It makes it fun to play and watch. As it gets harder, it starts to matter less anyways. If Tango wants to fix bugs, be by guest. But it’s getting to the point where he is overbalancing the game for the sake of making it harder. Etho and Hypno are really skilled players and he is making game level choices based on how successful they are. What about the players that aren’t as skilled, they are going to get left in the dust.
@@UnBoundBeatz It's not really fun to build a game and have people instantly try to cheat their way to victory instead of just playing how it's intended to play, either.
@@MoonyFBM that’s not really cheating either. They aren’t taking armor in, getting physical help from other hermits, using potions, or using outside food while in DO.
To limit level 1 ember farming you could play a similar trick to treasure,where deeper in the dungeon more embers drop. For example halving the global ember drop probability would halve the embers on level 1. As the different levels already have their own ember drop lines it would be easy to double pulse the level 2 line on a global ember signal, tripple pulse the level 3 line etc... This way the expected number of embers on a level 3 run should be the same as it is now. As two additional up/down sides: 1) this would favor ember drops in larger decks (late game) as it would be more likely to trigger later in the dungeon 2) the double/tripple pules mean embers can accumulate more on individual spots.
An idea for a hoodie: having a stylised version version of the Deepfrost Citadel with Deepfrost Citadel written in some kind of font used by a metal band. I would wear that.
Why not sell authorized pre-game food at the crown shop. Soup would be like 10 crowns, carrot would be 1, porkchop would be 2, honey would be 5 (or something). I think it is a good way to balance the issues surrounding saturation.
DO2 is SO AWESOME! I've been watching nothing else these last two weeks. I think it would be a good reward for surviving if keys and unspent embers were converted to coins.
The minecart was kicked of the rail, which reduces it´s vertical range below the block atop. If it where still considered on the rail it would have rolled of the block completly. Also the strange angle after you nudged it can only occour if derailed.
Tango. When you smile all stream long you dont look derpy. You look like a man who took upon himself a great task and is now enjoying the reward. Bringing joy to himself and many people.
I think there should be 3 awards at the end of DO2. The OPer, The Farmer, and The True Warrior. Pretty self explanatory. edit: Forgot one! The Swindler. For Scar, of course. Lol
Tango, about what to put on merch: -> of cause the obvious screen shot of the citadel -> cards -> artefacts I'd love to have a DO2 cup with all the artefacts. US only or can e.g. the European guys get some merch too?
You've probably already found a solution to the reckless charge/frost ember farming on level 1, but what if levels had higher chance of spitting out a frost ember the deeper level you're in, like how crowns are more likely on lower floors. Not enough that an unlucky card draw at the start of the game will cripple frost ember cards, but enough to incentivize sticking around at the lower levels a little longer for your frost hunter cards to play.
Absolutely loving all the hanging out with everyone! All about that collab content, even if it's just hanging out! I think you need to stop worrying about the honey/soup though.... a golden carrot is 14.4 saturation vs 20 saturation... it's not that huge
A little too late for Decked Out 2, but for a potential future project, the problem of Ravegers following hermits to the exit could be fixed with two entrances and exits, with the current entrance depending on which exit the last hermit took
Or have a villager near the exit and entrance that can be revealed like the evokers during reset time. Ravagers will try to kill the villager but can't reach them. But at least it pulls them away from the entrance/exit
And then they respawn at the bed where they got acces to their stuff and can just prick themselves on the berrybush and eat for the saturation. So whats that solving?
@@cherrydragon3120 You can easily make a bed clickable from a spot that's not valid for getting out/respawning, so you can make a one way door from that. Once they're in the bed, dispense lava to kill them, then they respawn in the new room without access to any stuff. That's all unnecessary of course. All he needs to do is say it's against the rules. In the end, this is still survival Minecraft, if they wanna break the rules, they can just as easily go to his storage room and steal a ton of tomes and there's nothing he can do to stop them.
@@cherrydragon3120 also nobody is expecting Hermits to cheat. The real issue as X mentioned in his episode is that the saturation bar is hidden so there is no real way to make it equal. If you just dies, it is equal for all, which was my point 😏
@@hellterminator My idea is to have a dispenser with an enormous amount of reskinned golden carrots or porkchops that are called beast biscuits. Put two signs next to the button. Eat only one of these before the run, all other foods before the run are not permitted.
At 54:27, ice block above the lichen on the right side, you can see several pixels change to black a couple times, like an entity is turning and glitching through the block. Is there a zombie or something behind it?
I feel like everyone entering on the same saturation would be fair which is why I'm fine with stew and honey, it also feels lie it's needed to get to lvl 3 and back, still using up all the berries harvested on the way down to lvl 3
Hey Tango, loving Decked Out 2! I do have a suggestion for the hypothetical treasure -> shard loop: Shards now cost 8 + 2X crowns, X being the amount of time the shard was purchased by a specific hermit. This would have to use -the loyalty system- but would solve the issue! (Technically you could make many indiviudual shard dispensers for each hermit, but that would take a while). The shard cost would reset every phase too, so that hermits can buy shards every phase. Hope this helps!
I feel like it'd be a super nice thing if one hermit built a hazard block deck and corralled Ravagers before many people ran. They could sell this service for crowns or shards
Given how useless the vex are killing hermits, I think you should add more evokers NOT to produce more vex but to increase the probability they hit the hermits with their magical fangs, because that at least has proven capable of killing Hypno.
After all the phases are finished, you should let all participants including yourself, choose their whole deck of any cards for free, and see who can get the deepest, and who can get the most coins/crowns/embers/shards
Considering the whole dungeon will only have 4 levels, and it's designed so you could get out after going down to level 4, getting the "deepest" isn't that interesting. As for the loot, it could be fun, but in reality it'll just lead to longer runs from Etho, Doc, and Hypno who are already going that route even now. And I don't know about you, but seeing a bunch of hour long runs where people speedrun getting to lvl 3, sneak around for half an hour, and then run out will be a bit boring after seeing one or two of them. Or in other words, the results would be an interesting experiment, but 90% of the content will be very monotone.
I think Tango has already raised this idea. Giving everyone a fixed budget to build a deck, then seeing who can get the most points over a fixed number of runs.
The hardest part of watching this series is that it's like watching a super early release series of a game I really wanna buy. It's not available but I want to play it *sooooo baaaadly*
I guarantee you, there will be big rebalancing as everyone starts to realize that because cards are drawn slowly, bigger decks are overwhelmingly likely to lead to high clank very early in runs.
"Even if it was 50% off" says YOUR face! Some of us see the red stone spaghetti and our eyes glaze over like sharks. You are freaking amazing Lord Tongo. Bubbles saying "stone him!" was the best! Edit: please get some sleep! All the love man!
Idea for the ravager renaming mechanic from DO1. What if you have to exchange an artifake for a prenamed name tag? That way, hermits could only rename them when they get (or trade for) their own artifake.
If you want to prevent level 1 farming, you coud count the number of succeddful ember drops on level and cap it, freezeing the ember drops until you go to level 2, where it resumes dropping embers.
In Phase 7/8, when all the dungeon secrets have been revealed, I'd love to have Bdubs as a live run commentator, he'd be perfect for that.
Playoffs :D.
This is the best idea ever
Oh my yes, BDubs with play by play and Tango with analysis, multicast on Twitch, folks could even sync their audio clips with player videos…
We need a bdubs and someone else, 2 commentator for the final run line up of every single hermit.

32:12 okay not it's more hilarious from Bubbles's POV 😂
Buggy Invisible Pumpkin is OP 😂❤
Just wanted to say Tango that after watching Hypnos run where he figured out what the rusty repair kit does... he reached max clank on level 2 and realised he wouldn't be getting out due to all the water traps and stuff on level 1 that goes with max clank. I think it's a big enough thing now. He survived on the level 3 run because he had HP gain from berries. Without them he would have died multiple times.
Just wanted to say you've done a great job, and Hypno hasn't been winning a lot of his runs recently (although they are epic to watch) because he doesn't have a defensive card investment. He's realised he needs more hazard and clank block now, because they are clearly negatively affecting him. The game is awesome, and the top player isn't too Op. Even reckless charge doesn't go of half the time, and isn't too Op. I don't know if you've changed it yet, and I think changing it is important, but if you haven't please don't stress. Everything is working amazing, the Hermits don't realise any faults or 'defects' and it's pretty competitive for who could win.
35:10 Bdubs says “Judas Priest” instead of Christ? That’s hilarious.
I would also love to have a deck of all the decked out cards. You could work with the same people that made hermircraft tcg
Decked Out merch ideas:
You already mentioned "Hazard kills" which would be great, maybe with the hazard logo. A complimentary idea would be "Don't stumble" with the clank logo. Maybe something about greed for the treasure logo.
"Learn to compass" or "Compass harder" might be good as well.
The reaction to invisible ravager was sick
The WHAT
Checked comments a lil early
31:30 for future reference
Thx
Watch Bdubs POV. The ravager is indeed invisible
You really should add a little minecart line to your observer spot. You switch from the main hall to that spot soo often
They are so underutilised, I hope one of the next updates will change them.
Wouldn't a minecart ride be too slow? Compared to just flying and dropping?
He has also discussed an enderporter
Also he should put a pressure plate on the outside of his firework triggered door
@@kardnails8729 It would be slower, but it would also be "fire and forget" so he could start the ride and then pop into freecam for observation as his "body" gets into place.
Nice! More DO2 content!!! It's getting harder to balance my productivity and Decked Out time...
Idea for a max clank announcement... A one time announcement saying "Max clank reached... Hazard kills!"
Not sure if that would be possible, but I could see that being quite unnerving to anyone that's been doing a long run in the dungeon.
It's so funny Bdubs really would have gotten 2/2 on his first 2 runs but the only broken compass spot was his target both times, and then a mod/resource pack doesn't render on one ravager and it hits him twice... his luck is horribly amazing but he's so funny it made good content. Thank you Tango for believing, even a little bit.
EDIT: This game is fantastic, Tango deserves a retirement fund. or funding for DO3
Tango can definitely do whatever he wants with his game, but I just don't understand why having the stew (or using any other min-max methods) is frowned upon. If the hermits care about the game enough to figure out ways to maximize their chances of "winning", then why is that an issue? I'm just thinking this sort of methods appears in basically all kinds of games and it isn't anyone's "fault". Saying that hermits would "stoop to such levels" seems a bit harsh.
BTW the wall opposite the Crown Shop might be a wall for everyone who contributes to BO2 - Names on a signs, like bricks which build that place :)
Regardless of source, saturation maxes out at 20, and eating a porkchop gives 13, so maxing it out with honey doesn't give as much of a gargantuan advantage as you might think. That's an extra 1 heart of healing (though obviously it's worth a lot in terms of sprint).
That's the issue, I hope whatever the rules will be, they should keep in mind how saturation works and find a solution to make everyone start at same hunger and saturation level.
I suggested either maxing (20) the saturation with a stew for everyone, or death resetting to quarter (5) saturation. Both options create equal starting position for players.
@@juraj5927 Honestly this is why I think stew shouldn't be banned. If everyone is maxing their saturation no one has an advantage. And with the community chest full of stew it's not like anyone wouldn't be able to do it.
IMO, Tango is probably at little to involved with the running of the game in some of these aspects. It really isn’t fun to develop a strategy and then the GM immediately nerfs it. I get it, DO2 is his baby, but sometimes, it’s fine for players to develop strategies. It makes it fun to play and watch. As it gets harder, it starts to matter less anyways. If Tango wants to fix bugs, be by guest. But it’s getting to the point where he is overbalancing the game for the sake of making it harder. Etho and Hypno are really skilled players and he is making game level choices based on how successful they are. What about the players that aren’t as skilled, they are going to get left in the dust.
@@UnBoundBeatz It's not really fun to build a game and have people instantly try to cheat their way to victory instead of just playing how it's intended to play, either.
@@MoonyFBM that’s not really cheating either. They aren’t taking armor in, getting physical help from other hermits, using potions, or using outside food while in DO.
To limit level 1 ember farming you could play a similar trick to treasure,where deeper in the dungeon more embers drop.
For example halving the global ember drop probability would halve the embers on level 1. As the different levels already have their own ember drop lines it would be easy to double pulse the level 2 line on a global ember signal, tripple pulse the level 3 line etc... This way the expected number of embers on a level 3 run should be the same as it is now. As two additional up/down sides:
1) this would favor ember drops in larger decks (late game) as it would be more likely to trigger later in the dungeon
2) the double/tripple pules mean embers can accumulate more on individual spots.
Just love the joy they have playing together. The world needs more of this.
"A little supplement would go a long way."
"A very long way. That's right, Satan, thank you for tempting me." - I love bdubs!
An idea for a hoodie: having a stylised version version of the Deepfrost Citadel with Deepfrost Citadel written in some kind of font used by a metal band. I would wear that.
That is the greatest open to any stream that I've ever seen. Bdubs is the best at even-toned conversation
Why not sell authorized pre-game food at the crown shop. Soup would be like 10 crowns, carrot would be 1, porkchop would be 2, honey would be 5 (or something). I think it is a good way to balance the issues surrounding saturation.
DO2 is SO AWESOME! I've been watching nothing else these last two weeks. I think it would be a good reward for surviving if keys and unspent embers were converted to coins.
Bduds just become your "middle game tester". He should be named something like "MGT" to take the confusion from other Hermits (about embers).
The minecart was kicked of the rail, which reduces it´s vertical range below the block atop. If it where still considered on the rail it would have rolled of the block completly. Also the strange angle after you nudged it can only occour if derailed.
Tango, the Dungeon lackey could be you watching them on free cam telling them if there is treasure near by, or just if they just ran past some
Tango. When you smile all stream long you dont look derpy. You look like a man who took upon himself a great task and is now enjoying the reward. Bringing joy to himself and many people.
I think there should be 3 awards at the end of DO2. The OPer, The Farmer, and The True Warrior. Pretty self explanatory.
edit: Forgot one! The Swindler. For Scar, of course. Lol
Tango, about what to put on merch:
-> of cause the obvious screen shot of the citadel
-> cards
-> artefacts
I'd love to have a DO2 cup with all the artefacts. US only or can e.g. the European guys get some merch too?
You've probably already found a solution to the reckless charge/frost ember farming on level 1, but what if levels had higher chance of spitting out a frost ember the deeper level you're in, like how crowns are more likely on lower floors. Not enough that an unlucky card draw at the start of the game will cripple frost ember cards, but enough to incentivize sticking around at the lower levels a little longer for your frost hunter cards to play.
Dont think anything is dropped on a leve you're not on.
I can't believe Tango missed the feet pic convo lol.
Love that there’s a saturation doping issue going on in DO lol
Absolutely loving all the hanging out with everyone! All about that collab content, even if it's just hanging out!
I think you need to stop worrying about the honey/soup though.... a golden carrot is 14.4 saturation vs 20 saturation... it's not that huge
53:44 tango is basically etho saying "it's a skill issue" 😂🤣
While I’m catching up on vods, mugs with the dungeon layout would be a cool merch item
tango i have really been loving these vods
Same! 😄
A little too late for Decked Out 2, but for a potential future project, the problem of Ravegers following hermits to the exit could be fixed with two entrances and exits, with the current entrance depending on which exit the last hermit took
Or have a villager near the exit and entrance that can be revealed like the evokers during reset time. Ravagers will try to kill the villager but can't reach them. But at least it pulls them away from the entrance/exit
Might have been suggested already, but the saturation issue could be easily solved by killing the Hermit before a run 😊
The 😊 emoji though...
And then they respawn at the bed where they got acces to their stuff and can just prick themselves on the berrybush and eat for the saturation. So whats that solving?
@@cherrydragon3120 You can easily make a bed clickable from a spot that's not valid for getting out/respawning, so you can make a one way door from that. Once they're in the bed, dispense lava to kill them, then they respawn in the new room without access to any stuff.
That's all unnecessary of course. All he needs to do is say it's against the rules. In the end, this is still survival Minecraft, if they wanna break the rules, they can just as easily go to his storage room and steal a ton of tomes and there's nothing he can do to stop them.
@@cherrydragon3120 also nobody is expecting Hermits to cheat. The real issue as X mentioned in his episode is that the saturation bar is hidden so there is no real way to make it equal. If you just dies, it is equal for all, which was my point 😏
@@hellterminator My idea is to have a dispenser with an enormous amount of reskinned golden carrots or porkchops that are called beast biscuits. Put two signs next to the button. Eat only one of these before the run, all other foods before the run are not permitted.
At 54:27, ice block above the lichen on the right side, you can see several pixels change to black a couple times, like an entity is turning and glitching through the block. Is there a zombie or something behind it?
zombies spawn near that area so there's probably one.
HOW.
I feel like everyone entering on the same saturation would be fair which is why I'm fine with stew and honey, it also feels lie it's needed to get to lvl 3 and back, still using up all the berries harvested on the way down to lvl 3
Tango is now the master of flight. Because of decked out redstone 😂😂😂
I have to say. Watching the runs from Tangos perspective is way more entertaining than I thought it would be.
Hey Tango, loving Decked Out 2! I do have a suggestion for the hypothetical treasure -> shard loop:
Shards now cost 8 + 2X crowns, X being the amount of time the shard was purchased by a specific hermit. This would have to use -the loyalty system- but would solve the issue! (Technically you could make many indiviudual shard dispensers for each hermit, but that would take a while). The shard cost would reset every phase too, so that hermits can buy shards every phase. Hope this helps!
I feel like it'd be a super nice thing if one hermit built a hazard block deck and corralled Ravagers before many people ran. They could sell this service for crowns or shards
That would for some really awesome fun content of free runs, can’t wait to see them
honestly seeing runs with your perspective is wonderful
Given how useless the vex are killing hermits, I think you should add more evokers NOT to produce more vex but to increase the probability they hit the hermits with their magical fangs, because that at least has proven capable of killing Hypno.
"Eat me I don't care" well I can see Bdubs isn't having a great time
After all the phases are finished, you should let all participants including yourself, choose their whole deck of any cards for free, and see who can get the deepest, and who can get the most coins/crowns/embers/shards
Nah
Considering the whole dungeon will only have 4 levels, and it's designed so you could get out after going down to level 4, getting the "deepest" isn't that interesting.
As for the loot, it could be fun, but in reality it'll just lead to longer runs from Etho, Doc, and Hypno who are already going that route even now.
And I don't know about you, but seeing a bunch of hour long runs where people speedrun getting to lvl 3, sneak around for half an hour, and then run out will be a bit boring after seeing one or two of them.
Or in other words, the results would be an interesting experiment, but 90% of the content will be very monotone.
I think Tango has already raised this idea.
Giving everyone a fixed budget to build a deck, then seeing who can get the most points over a fixed number of runs.
The hardest part of watching this series is that it's like watching a super early release series of a game I really wanna buy. It's not available but I want to play it *sooooo baaaadly*
this isn't the first time a ravager has been invisible either.
Etho, bdubs, scar, Cleo, Cub and Doc! Most my favs!
I guarantee you, there will be big rebalancing as everyone starts to realize that because cards are drawn slowly, bigger decks are overwhelmingly likely to lead to high clank very early in runs.
Rusty repair kit is the perfect incentive to go to level 2 even if you have a level 1 artefact.
at max clank a "Geeet Ouuuuut!..." in a whispery eerie voice would be INTENSE
"Even if it was 50% off" says YOUR face! Some of us see the red stone spaghetti and our eyes glaze over like sharks. You are freaking amazing Lord Tongo. Bubbles saying "stone him!" was the best! Edit: please get some sleep! All the love man!
love that doc is claiming they've been fighting diamond inflation for years while actively tunnel boring the world's guts out
Idea for the ravager renaming mechanic from DO1. What if you have to exchange an artifake for a prenamed name tag? That way, hermits could only rename them when they get (or trade for) their own artifake.
If you want to prevent level 1 farming, you coud count the number of succeddful ember drops on level and cap it, freezeing the ember drops until you go to level 2, where it resumes dropping embers.
Possible 😮
@@cherrydragon3120 I think he did exactly that lol
Scar getting looped by the Death Loop is the funniest thing to me lol
