This video is a classic, 9/10 rage content. This induced a level of rage that will drive most mortals to play the game. Contributing factors include the complete unwillingness to buy certain upgrades, constant repetition of "THE MOTHERLODE" every time resources are found, and the drillbert saga. The cherry on top is the incredible psychotic mining that scratches my brain in all the most painful ways possible. (all reviews are satirical and provided for entertainment purposes only)
@@suakeli You don't know what you ask, traveler. My strongest domes will kill an engineer let alone a man. You need a keeper that keeps weaker domes, because my domes are too strong.
Such a nice concept for a game. My personal hope would be a more automatic tower defense mechanic where you can gamble on whether or not you can let the AI handle it or if you have to intervene yourself
@@djking44151 I could imagine that they plan on adding additional dome setups via updates and since they already got one "AI controlled" element (the paralysing laser) maybe they'll add a dome that can be upgraded accordingly
Well guess you are lucky then... The latest biiig beta version added new gadgets and domes. One is a drone dome, you can buy drones that collect your resources for you AND you can buy drones that spawn automatically when the fight starts. In the early to midgame this suffices easily to come late to the fight (where you can use your weapon dome, the drones are of the supplemental dome type like the orchard or shield). On top of that we got more dome supplements, e.g. you can have buzzing saws on top of your dome that do melee damage, an electrical spire to shoot down enemy projectiles, auto repair, hull hardening, resurrection dome etc. The latest beta version is really really good, spent like 50h in the last two weeks with it! Mostly due to the new hard challenge modes that you can complete for shiny rewards (unlocking hud elements permanently, giving you three upgrades to choose from instead of two and should all suck, you can unlock the reroll ability). Highly recommended to give it a go now, cant wit for the full release. :)
Been loosely following this game since it went by its og name of Dome Romantik, its changed so much, the art style which was already perfect has seemingly only improved as well, love to see it.
thank you NL, this game is great and you brought it to my attention. Also, whoever in chat said drillbert is garbage, get out of town. Drillbert best boy, he just does his own thing and you can focus on gunning aliens down. What a guy.
Not one bald joke? But for real rare instance where I left after 5 minutes because this game looks right up my alley and I didn't want spoilers, I'm going to come back and watch it after I play around for a while in it.
You're the only youtuber that keeps me coming back. I spend a lot of time listening to youtube on background to the point it can get annoying and I need some silence, but your whole person just clicks so much to me. You're open my mouth to laugh levels of funny, not weak nose laugh, which is like 30% funny.
lmao fair. NL did manage to die on the easiest difficulty by ignoring the fact that he was falling behind the power curve. higher difficulties are no joke, though.
Start of the video: I really want to be careful about this conflict of interest and I've been really careful about playing these games in the past Title: 2022's best strategy game? (Dome Keeper) Yeah ok NL
I don't remember how NL feels about rythm games but Metal Hellsinger just got released and I'd love to see him give it a try! It's like Crypt of the Necrodancer meets doom with the FPS style
Dome Keeper is really cool but very barebones. Needs more content and it would also be a nice multiplayer game if you could play with other people and take turns defending and mining. You have very little time to do anything and not that many options in customizing your defense and strategy. I finished a run in 30 minutes and there weren't even enough resources on the map to get to some of the higher tier upgrades.
Other streamers: "I just found out about this site called CS:GO Lotto" NL: "Disclaimer. The developers Community Manager's aunt and I have both taken the same subway line between October 2014 and January 2015. Just so you know that there might be a conflict of interest"
I was thinking about buying this. Glad to see NL playing it, even though I know he's going to do something dumb. If I keep watching him, I'm going to end up getting his hairstyle.
Fully upgraded and fed treats Drillbert is fast, turns around when he hits a wall and goes for ages. Unfortunately he takes way too much of your attention, and thus time, to be good. Would be awesome if there were a custom start mode where you could just play for fun with pre-upgraded stuff. Would love to set him lose right from the start of the game.
in my experience of about one and a half hours playing this on brutal, get drill 2 it helps so much more than the rest, jetpack speed feels kind of lame, maybe carrying capacity will fare better, lazer 1 is probably my go to upgrade for wave 3 and if you find the thing that finishes the run its likely that you can ignore the timer and go for it (at least if it is about 25% or more left)
I really want to pick this game up, but I feel like it would land comfortably on the shelf of "games I thought looked really cool when NL played it, but for whatever reason I just lost interest in really quickly".
I really respect NL’s commitment to this game by literally cosplaying the dome
Pp
So true, so true
+2
I'm wheezing that's so true
@@gliecco many people are saying this
I really respect his commitment to staying right to his audience and disclose things like this in the beginning just in the name of integrity. Top guy
Top G, proper G
I mean its not a big deal its not like the tmarten shit
Yeah I'm glad he let us know that he has paid David in the past to keep his shiny dome.
@@Markm8 It's the Canadian way- apologize for doing a thing you wanted to do because some people might question why you want to do it.
Game looks great. It would be unfair not to play it because he knows someone involved in it.
Dome keeper is perfect for the person with the most iconic dome in streaming.
Blue from Overly Sarcastic Productions?
So true
OOOOOOH BAAAABBBY that feeling when NL picks up a game you've been waiting for HIM SPECIFICALLY to pick up
Cries in Death’s Door
ME FUCKINH TOO I JUST BOUGHT THE GAME THE OTHER DAY AND WAS HOPING HE WOULD
Pls play shovel knight dig NL
NL is the original Dome Keeper. Keepin' that dome free of hair.

Dome keepers name gives off the same energy as potion seller
my dome is too kept for you, traveller
Dome keeper, I wish to buy your strongest dome
@@suakeli You don't know what you ask, traveler. My strongest domes will kill an engineer let alone a man. You need a keeper that keeps weaker domes, because my domes are too strong.

I'm begging for this to become a series
Having spent 13 of the last 22 hours playing Dome Keeper, I will say that the game does have series potential.
NL: finds something
also NL: its the MOTHERLOAD
Thank you for your in put musician Braden Holmes
Finally you're playing it! Been loving the heck out of this game ever since the demo dropped.
Definitely in it for more of this content. This game looks so fucking sick and excited to see how NL manages it
This one 40 minute video is all it took for me to get hooked on Dome Keeper. Downloaded it today, already at 3 and a half hours.
This is the kind of game that unleashes NL's full potential, we need more
I remember playing this game when it was an entry to the Ludum Dare game jam. Cool to see it has gone on to become a full game.
Says he's gonna strip mine, proceeds to not strip mine. Gotta love NL lol
You keep my dome happy, NL
I’m a simple man - I see NL playing a new game I click.
this game looks beautiful
edit: also 27:33
I've trained in Xgen Studio's Super Motherload many years ago, my neurons have fired up like a sleeper agent.
same, my many hours as a youth wil pay off
Been loosely following this game since it went by its og name of Dome Romantik, its changed so much, the art style which was already perfect has seemingly only improved as well, love to see it.
NL, as one of your viewers who grew up as a theater kid, I very much appreciated the Waiting For Godot reference
>has 7 cobalt, a material used specifically for dome keeping
>doesnt heal nor even consider buying durability
"2022's best strategy game?" says the guy that never played a strategy game in his life (on stream) Kappa
if you're about to die, you can leave combat into the "computer" menu - it pauses the fight and allows you to heal.
big if true
@@Drekromancer Is in fact true.
@@Drekromancer it is. But the combat resumes if you accidentally leave the computer by pressing q twice instead of once.
thank you NL, this game is great and you brought it to my attention. Also, whoever in chat said drillbert is garbage, get out of town. Drillbert best boy, he just does his own thing and you can focus on gunning aliens down. What a guy.

Maybe the motherload was the friends we made along the way?

I'd like to point out that your character is the alien
I can totally see challenge runs where people don't turn on the "time till next wave" upgrade
Say what you will, but every time a RNG Rouge Like games come out, NorthernEgg is always my first stop shop for all things like this
Yep I was right DomeKeeper from the internet friendly neighborhood ChromeDome himself is definitely up my alley, automatic buy!!
1:00 I just saw this in my Steam Queue and INSTANTLY thought of Northernlion LMAO!
NL you can pause and go to upgrades during combat if you need to heal your dome
10/10 joke within the first 25 seconds of the video, you love to see it
Finally a game similar to motherload im already in love
That moment when you find a new series to pog to
Hope we get to see more of this.
i saw this game on the steam store and thought how fun it would be to watch you play it! so glad you did!
A Rymdkapsel reference in 2022. This guy knows his audience
Oh hell yes. My favorite streamer is pogging to the game I just fell into this week! I hope this series continues!
I believe I've just hit upon the motherload of pog content
Please make this a series!!
Thank you david, thank you for probably getting NL to pog off on twitter
Maybe the real mother loads were the friends we made along the way
Hmm... a "mother load" is a really different thing from a motherlode, though. I think I'd be offended if one of my friends called me that first thing.
I am so looking forward to more of this
NL's mom: Should I press New game or Load game?
NL: The mother, load!
“I might actually be dead dead…”
*next video title card appears*
☠️
WAIt ITS OUT!? I’ve been waiting awhile for this one!!
Very enjoyable, hope this gets some more playtime.
It's insane watching the last fight as he kills none of the little jumping enemies in time and wastes his shot not hitting the big ass enemy
what's even more insane is that he didn't heal even though he had 7 cobalt with almost no upgrades that needed cobalt
@Northernlion Try digging horizontally until you run out of stuff before you go deep so you can waste less resources on the drill.
The waiting for Godot joke earned a like already
The motherlode emote should be a guy carrying 4 folding chairs.
who up keepin they dome
NL, please look at the uses for Cobalt - it's pretty much just healing and some upgrades to make your Dome tougher. There's no need to save it up.
I appreciate the disclaimer at the beginning.
Love that you're playing this
this is great, definitively up for more
Your witty comments and constant banter crack me up the whole time and straight up make me laugh. One of youtube's best for my taste right here!
I have been waiting for this ever since I saw dangerouslyfunny play
10:25 caught me off guard with the Waiting for Godot joke. Good stuff
really enjoyed watching this ons stream!
I cool tip I learned is that you only need to tap the fliers once and they wont shoot for that whole cycle.
This seems to be a bump up of that flash mining game.
It is absolutely a bunch of rehashed concepts thrown together... but they got it so right. Also the soundtrack is decent.
Appreciate the conflict of interest disclaimer
ryan when literally any resources "omg the motherload!"
37:50 and this is why your first game lasted just 40 minutes lol.
Shadow Monsters 🤝 Baertaffy
Coming for that big shiny dome
Im here before it will get rewatched in the future
Injecting pog straight to the dome
strip mine backseat tip: always drill with two tile gap to maximize visibility this is similar to the concept in minecraft
That's the first time I've seen anyone fail a run in Dome Keeper, good to see it's not as easy as other streamers make it out to be
lmao fair. NL did manage to die on the easiest difficulty by ignoring the fact that he was falling behind the power curve. higher difficulties are no joke, though.
he likes this game on account of his head being shaped much akin to a dome
Northy I’ve been watching your video’s for 10 years now. Thanks for everything, keep this series going it’s so enjoyable
nothing triggers me more than enel false dilemma-ing paper or plastic bags and yet i still keep coming back for more
Start of the video: I really want to be careful about this conflict of interest and I've been really careful about playing these games in the past
Title: 2022's best strategy game? (Dome Keeper)
Yeah ok NL
northernlion another nice strategy game with roguelite elements, the last spell. you should give it a go
I don't remember how NL feels about rythm games but Metal Hellsinger just got released and I'd love to see him give it a try! It's like Crypt of the Necrodancer meets doom with the FPS style
Not conductive to Banter, sadly.
@@lastnamefirstname850 I can see that, but maybe as a one off for twitch stream not UA-cam series? Idk haha

You have very little time to do anything and not that many options in customizing your defense and strategy.

I'd watch at least another 20 episodes, commenting for the alg
Other streamers: "I just found out about this site called CS:GO Lotto"
NL: "Disclaimer. The developers Community Manager's aunt and I have both taken the same subway line between October 2014 and January 2015. Just so you know that there might be a conflict of interest"
i love this game so glad enelle is playing
I just wanted him to go all in on drillbert
I was thinking about buying this. Glad to see NL playing it, even though I know he's going to do something dumb. If I keep watching him, I'm going to end up getting his hairstyle.
You have uncovered the sinisterly subtle mechanism of the contagious virus that is THE DOME. Be careful with this information.
I love watching this. This game rules.
Reusable bags are the best for being durable, there's no doubt
Fully upgraded and fed treats Drillbert is fast, turns around when he hits a wall and goes for ages. Unfortunately he takes way too much of your attention, and thus time, to be good.
Would be awesome if there were a custom start mode where you could just play for fun with pre-upgraded stuff. Would love to set him lose right from the start of the game.
egg please keep playing
Which Kingdom? The one with the Ruler riding a horse back and forth building defenses?
At this point do we start calling them keeperlikes with how many games are called Keeper
in my experience of about one and a half hours playing this on brutal, get drill 2 it helps so much more than the rest, jetpack speed feels kind of lame, maybe carrying capacity will fare better, lazer 1 is probably my go to upgrade for wave 3 and if you find the thing that finishes the run its likely that you can ignore the timer and go for it (at least if it is about 25% or more left)
so did he ever check out the upgrades after the infinite heal? that really bothered me.
more of this -please
This seems like it could be a sick to play on my phone
I really want to pick this game up, but I feel like it would land comfortably on the shelf of "games I thought looked really cool when NL played it, but for whatever reason I just lost interest in really quickly".
It's low on content for sure.
Its an upgrade to the old Flash game "Motherload" wonder if it's ending is the same.
begging for the location of the next episode of dome keeper through text
More of this please
Dead by daylight is one of my favorite games, so the cameo was a treat. I would love to see NL ruin his life to that game.
