2:37 Robocast:The game is even historically accurate German soldier on the eastern front, 1942:Oh look Hans, that T-34 has a big red bar above its head. Another German soldier:Ah yes Fritz, Have you also noticed how when our shells shit and penetrate, the Russian crew isn’t immediately riddled with shrapnel and dead? Instead only a chunk of that red bar turns to black
2:40 Robokast:The tanks models are authentic Every literate person with an interest in tanks: huh, looks like this tank and 50+ overs…never existed. And WWE wrestlers never commanded tank crews either
You made a poll about this game , it didn't get the majority of the votes and still made a video. Making content based in whats you want and not of what the viewers what bases on a vote...? Instantly subbed to you my friend
Local Greybeard here, as someone with 350+ hours let me personally thank you for reviewing this game. Also I highly recommend joining random lobbies. The community is really welcoming and us Greybeards live for diving into the depths of hell to ensure no dwarf is left behind. Any way hope to see you on Hoxxes, Rock n stone brothers.
Huh... maybe I will. Tbh I'm not a fan of randoms and have been playing on and off for like 2 years (probably got like 100h under my belt) and just finally promoted my main (The driller, he's dope) Been tryna get some mates to play but for some reason they're all unwilling
@@mage0534 i struggle to get my friends to play it aswell its a shame this game is a gem and i can get on and do 3 or 4 missions with randoms and its still a blast
Just saying this now: the community is nothing but nice, as far as I've seen. The game is pretty fun, but with a friend or two it's like the perfect game to fuck around in.
There's defo toxic tryhards, but I've also noticed that the community is mostly super cool and nice especially when you play public missions. Folks are super kind. I main engi and I'll sometimes have a scout stick with me for several missions bc engi and scout work well together. I'll tell them that I gotta go eventually n they'll say stuff like "IT WAS AWESOME" or "ROCK AND STONE" it's just so :,,))))))
its safe to say that any game has toxic players. but deep rock galactic has a really welcoming vibe to it to the point that people find it harder to be toxic.
Only thing missing here was make sure you overuse your “salute” button! Joining a game? Rock and Stone! Kill a boss? Rock and Stone! Did you nuke your teammate by accident and have to go revive him? Rock and Stone! Has it been 30 seconds since the last time you said it? Rock and Stone! You get the idea…
The best part about DRG is that the developers Ghost Ship Games actually listen to their players. You mentioned that the pipes on the Refinery Mission, that feature was specifically requested by the community because it's fun
I bought this game at a discount when it was in Early Access, and even then I realized that it was something new and unusual. An extremely pleasant game in the gameplay, one thrill to play with friends.
I got it with my friends on Xbox 3 years ago when it just came out then it was then and now still one the funnest things to play with them it’s so unique as a game and especially late game gear is great.
I joined after Uncle Dane's video a long while back (before alternative weapons were added yet, I remember that much), been playing ever since. New update is going to be so damn good.
Great review, the "real" DRG begins when you have your first promotion (one character to 25 and finish the promotion assignment). Then there are machine events, overclocks and a whole new world opens up to you ;) Also always play DRG coop, even if it's with random online strangers. Then you soon realize, why it's the best coop game currently out there.
Hands down the best community I've ever interacted with. 500+ hours and I've completed 1 mission solo, with only running into 2 different experiences of toxicity. I've never sunk so much time into a game before, & the reason I have with DRG is the community. Playing a game with a bunch of greenbeards is just as enjoyable as with a bunch of greybeards who all know their roles to a T. Y'all are the best. R&S
You forgot to mention the social aspect. The by far most important key is the "V"-key on PC. It makes your dwarf raise their pickaxe and shout an enthusiastic battlecry along the lines of "Rock and Stone!" or "For Karl!" - This is your main way of communication when not using the laserpointer to mark things or type in the chat, what makes you immobile for a moment. The mechanic is utterly positive and boosts the moral and level of fun of everyone involved. The community is one of the nicest I've ever seen in a video game. And the game has got beard physics. Beard. Physics. Rock and Stone, Brothers!
If there ever is a DRG convention of some sorts, i can already imagine how some person shouts out "Rock and Stone!" and then everyone in the room shouts it out too. The V key is genuinely one of the best features in any coop game i've come across.
Bosco can dig Aquarq out of the wall for you and can even bring loose ones over- just ping em! The amount of time you took in a mission does not affect how many resources you get. The engineer has a grenade launcher, not a rocket launcher. Glad you like the game so far, and I hope to see you down there on Hoxxes! Rock and Stone.
Not even a mention about the procedural generation? It's the best in any game in history. I mostly play this game for the feeling of exploration and adventure; even after 130 hours, every cave feels unique, surprising, and beautiful.
@@myamdane6895 I could only think of no man’s sky and Minecraft with its new caves and cliffs update but I don’t think I really know what procedural generation is
Oh man! You love the game and have barely tried out Overclocks? That's like, the meat of the endgame! I can't wait until you find the unstable overclocks that turn the Engineer's grenade launcher into a railgun, or the one that just shoots actual nukes.
Or engineer's autoshotgun. Or RJ250. Or bullet hell. Or for the new guns having a swarm of plasma orbs, laser tethers which slow enemies, rocket shotguns, become a goo bomber, turn overheating into a source of ammo, have plasma literally everywhere, super acid which melts armor on contact, etc etc etc.
Best experiences of the game: - Playing with friends -The millions of spiders crawling upside down in the abscure tunnel following you while you try to make it back to the exit as the fallen comrade you left behind screams for help, knowing deeply you will never see him again. -The beer
I think something that REALLY makes Deep Rock Galactic great that you didn't mention was the character. Everything in the game as a distinct 'character', from the M.U.L.E and all of it's little emotive noises when you tell it to move around, to the big drill truck. They all have specific personalities that are really easy to overlook but add a ton to the game.
DRG is one of the only games that I can comfortably play in co-op with strangers. The community has some of the nicest people who all just want to have a good time.
As someone with over 1600 hours in DRG, it *eventually* comes to a standstill in progression, but with consistent updates, that rarely lasts, especially with the new one adding an entirely new progression tree! Also helping out greenbeards (noobs/new players) is something to do in the endgame.
Yep, I have 1200 hours and only relatively recently got all the cosmetics unlocked. It isn’t quite the same type of progression as new abilities and overclocks, but for a game with as fun a core gameplay loop as DRG, even the funny blue number going up is enough
Dash is my must have on nearly all classes for both solo and multiplayer since it recharges so quickly + you can do long jumps and keep some extra speed like that.
You know it's a great game when it's a 15 minute video telling you all the good things about the game and not even mentioning the amazing character customization options to make your dwarf your very own (including shiny gold skin, cus we all know we love the goooold!), as well as the way Ghost Ship Games monetize the game. It might be an odd point for a video about "why DRG is awesome" but it is amazing that every DLC they make is only visual, no gameplay is locked behind payment. Not to even mention the amazing update coming on the 4th. Made me worry when they talked about "Battle Pass", but it's all free and no FOMO as they intend on making everything accessable even after the season ends. This is the longest comment I've ever written and it's me fanboy-ing over a game, but it fits perfectly with this video I think. ROCK AND STONE!
GSG's business model is what has given me an undying love for them. There are so many little things that add up to why DRG is one of the best games ever made. Hope to run into you on the 4th, miner. o7
If anyone wants to know more about DRG (more details, such as music, weapons, support tools, etc.) I’d recommend checking out Sniss. He makes content over video games but mainly focuses on DRG. His videos are extremely well made and entertaining and I’d highly recommend them! He’s honestly probably one of my favorite creators!
Let's not forget that the levels are also procedurally generated, so each playthrough is always different, it's a really great co-op game which is fun with friends and strangers alike. The game design naturally makes you want to work together and have fun without directly telling you to do it.
my absolute favorite part about it is that the devs don’t charge for their battle pass! and they said that after this season ends you can still get all the items! now THATS how you make a game!
Hey Robo, for the extraction missions... you can get Bosco to mine the stuff for you. Any mineral you have to "carry", Bosco can usually mine. You just highlight what you want Bosco to mine with the tool bound to the CTRL key. You're gonna have to highlight/select something else when Bosco brings the mineral to you (or just grab it from) so he drops it. ALSO Bosco can build your pipes for you!
“There’s a bar where you can drink away your depression from your friends not wanting to play the game with you” I don’t know about anybody else but this is so goddamn accurate
Yes! Thank you! By the way i recommend to play online with strangers. Its really fun, way better than playing alone and you get to know new people. You can join people in the mission selector.
It was free on PS+ recently and I tried it with friends and randoms alike. I've only played this for three days, bit it's great fun. I love the great amount of interactivity in the space hub. I even drank loads of alcohol with randoms and they fainted so I had to revive them. I've only played the mining, egg hunt and pipe missions so far, but I like them a lot. The different classes all have interesting gimmicks and I like them all so much that I can't decide which one I play, so I just choose randomly. Even if I don't really know what I'm doing in a mission I still can collect nitra or kill enemies so I do actually contribute to the team, despite being new to the game. Running back to the drop pod can be intense and yesterday only one of the four dwarves made it out. Deep Rock Galactic (the corporation itself) rely just doesn't care at all. Plus, kicking barrels and hearing the commander say: 'Stop it, NOW!' never gets old.
I play with a group of four and this has got to be the most fun gaming experience I’ve ever had. We all use different classes and I main driller. It is amazing in so many ways. Even the small things, like being able to go ANYWHERE. Or the fact that you are almost never in a menu because everything you need to see is in the gameplay.
I haven’t had an experience with a game quite like this. I was enjoying myself and thought the game was neat about an hour in. I decided to do one more mission and had fun. But I did another one. And another one. I kept having so much fun. I leveled up my engineer and learned the class as I played, without having to ask the people I played with, or google. I began using turrets and distracting grenades as well as my secondary heavy weapon to take out large hordes quickly, and varying my load out, so one weapon dealt with hordes well, and the other one could take out heavily armored bugs, with my turrets just doing general damage. So much fun, can’t wait to play more tonight.
Happy to see a greenbeard putting out a video with very positive first impressions! We can always use new Combat Miners. Don't shy away from playing with random players, this game has one of the best communities, period. ROCK & STONE!
The other thing to remember too is that this is also a great example of a "Live Service" game. One that doesn't try to milk you while adding more meaningful content and stuff that's just awesome.
Speaking of "unseen design choices" one thing that blew my mind when I found out was that blowing the head off the exploders will cause them to not blow up when they die, and you have a deceptively larger amount of time to do this after they come up to you and start hissing than you would initially think!
Greybeard here, been playing since pretty early on in early access. I remember the days of the old layout in the space rig. Still wondering if one day management will give us a firing range. But on another note, you honestly really hit the nail on the head here with this review. GSG are not perfect, but when they goof they fix it. They take care of their community and have helped foster a really warm, caring community for their game. I personally prefer to play with friends over doing open lobbies, but I know a lot of people that do open lobbies and have good experiences. Obviously at this time we just got update 35, Rival Incursion, which is arguably our largest update to date. It took a really long time for GSG to finally get this out the door, and it was delayed a good few times. But it's here, and it's good. And to top it all off, we have a season pass in the game now... That's entirely free. No paid component. None. Just play the game and get even more goodies (including more skins, the true endgame) for the pleasure of having done so. I'm honestly happy seeing this game of late get a lot more attention. GSG deserves the spotlight, and it's good to see you've enjoyed your time in the game. There's so much more for you to experience too. Rock and stone brother!
Nice to see some more love for this game. It is absolutely one of the best indie games in its genre currently. I feel its a bit of a shame though you didn't talk much / played much of co-op with randoms, as the community this game has and the interactions with its members is one of the games strongest benefits. The interaction between the classes are beautifully designed and everything about the game and its design philosophy aims to encourage teamplay and friendliness. I do hope you get to experience that side of the game in the near future. Otherwise, good review, nice to see you checking out this game.
Rock and Stone brother! Few tips for you. Always get Barley Bulbs, those are the ingredients that let you buy the stat boosting beers like Slayer Stout or Dark Morkite. Bosco is amazing and sometimes you don't want to deal with randos, but often times its not that bad and you can have some fun. At the very least you can enjoy the cosmetics of rando dwarves. Having more party members means easier traversal and better combos. The Engineer and Scout work great together because they can put platforms in those high up places where Scouts want to go collect. Driller can often dig straight to the drop pod, meaning you can avoid running back through the entire cave. Gunner shield bubble is a lifesaver, I always recommend getting the Medic perk on your gunner. Driller + Engineer = BUNKERING! For those missions when you have to protect a fuel refilling station or an upllink. Driller can dig underneath it, lay a C4 and make a cavern. Then just dig under the uplink and make it fall down into the cavern. Engineer can close up the holes and traverse easier with platforms, as well as setup mines & turrets. Just make sure there is only one way into the bunker. Bring along a gunner and watch dozens of bugs die in your killzone. Have fun! For Karl!
I'm nearing 30 years old, and I've been having a hard time enjoying games lately. My close online group of friends that I've known for years recommended I download this game, and since it was free I did. Honestly I can say this is a RARE gem of a game that keeps me coming back, and I highly recommend it to anyone thinking about playing it.
As a player who is not yet a full greybeard, but not a greenbeard either, I can certainly say you are missing out quite a bit if you haven't unlocked weapon overclocks yet. Since you love engineer and bombing stuff, no doubt you will find the fat boy OC (literally a nuke) the best OC to be. Also, even if you don't have any friends who directly play the game doesn't mean you can't make any. I don't have anyone I personally know who play DRG, but made more than a plethora of friends from simply joining randoms. I know, on most multiplayer co-op games, sometimes joining random sounds like a terrible idea. But in the case of DRG, the opposite is true. If you don't join randoms, you ain't playing the game right. The community of the game is far better than any other multiplayer game I have played (and I have been an XBox live player, so I can assert to this claim). Frankly speaking, community-wise it sort of makes sense, as the game is far less about trolling (although if you do have friends to play with, then trolling your friend becomes mandatory) and more about just having fun. No game has ever made me feel this wholesome, and it was quite a really nice change to the community (previous game I invested a LOT of time into, and I am talking about 8 years, was WoT) being far more accepting and friendly. Trust me, join randoms. You will not regret any of it. Rock and stone, brother!
So happy to see this game getting more love! It genuinely feels like sitting down on a couch with my friends and playing a classic co-op game when I play DRG. I haven't felt this way about a co-op experience since... Halo 2 campaign? Four Sword on Gamecube? Anyway, great vid!
Im going to say two things about this game. 1.I’ve convinced 5 people to pay full price for it, and we still play a few times a week six months later, so it’s gotta be decent at least. 2. He didn’t mention that the caves are randomly generated in one of ten biomes, so there are infinite unique missions, which get way better when he reaches level 25 and promotes. You get mini bosses in the missions, the deep dives, and unlock the weapon overclocks. Because how are you going to mine without the grenade launcher nuke, the ice mine mashinegun, a spiny plasma wheel of doom, or magic bullets?
Bought it in early access when almost no one knew it. Now I'm playing it with my friends on and off monthly (which is alot for my friend group). So yeah it's a very good game.
you can tell bosco to do a lot of things aside from just mining, lighting, and killing like finishing up the pipes, following drilldozer instead of you, salute when you salute, make cute noises, and reviving you more than you can count best part bout bosco is he can mine heavy materials and carry them over, calling bosco by pressing the follow me button (default on pc is X) when he is nearby with this heavy material makes him toss it at you these are just things i wish you put in the video about the single player content you can also turn off bosco if you want to
I really love this game. Its my go to for down time in my busy life. I admittedly have over 800 hours and basically own/unlocked everything ahaha. Its always fun and the random formed maps really make lots of missions feel different. Its fun as heck with friends and still even so with random lobbies as the people seems very cooperative and friendly compared to other public lobbies in other games.
I think its even on xbox gamepass, which you can get for 1 dollar.. however i am not sure if you are able to play with Steam players, so i cant comment on the xbox community if that is the case.
Not only that the gameplay is really amazing, it's the cosmetics is where it's at. With lots of cosmetics, you can create nasty, wacky, and cool looking dwarves to your hearts content. Even getting new weapon frameworks, pickaxe parts, and paint jobs so you can style your weapons in any way you want. I love this game so much!
And the best thing about the cosmetics? The vast majority are locked only behind gameplay! No microtransactions! Just a few dlc cosmetics if you want to throw the devs some extra cash & get something out of it at the same time. If I'm honest, I've bought all the dlc cosmetics even though I rarely end up using them. The amount of free quality updates has me genuinely wanting to give the devs more money. In other games, that's not the case at all!
Just started playing this week and loving it. Buffed players always help and make sure I make it to the drone at the end. Really great community. ROCK AND STONE!
DRG is probably the greatest co-op indie game out there imo and the more time pass the longer the list of why its so good keeps getting longer. Btw, "Extraction missions (I hate theses)" I feel personally attacked as it is one of my favorite mission type and I shall try to change your view on it somewhat. - it is one of the greatest mission for solo players as you can even complete 100% of them without shooting once as scout. - you dont need to go really far and the area is very open, making special powder scout and rocket jumpung engie feel in heaven. - you have the plateform turrets taking care of the swarmers. Some stuff I noticed from your gameplay that you might wanna know: you can order bosco to build pipelines. He'll do it until there is nothing left to build on the line. He can also carry large minerals for you (like aquar), so it isnt too painful for you to carry or harvest from the ceilings :) In any case, awesome video! Rock and Stone! PS: random matchmaking is never disappointing and everyone is always friendly so dont hesitate to go out of solo sometimes. Theres the official DRG discord which also have a special channel for people looking for people to play with. *and tbh im pretty sure you could ask anyone here to play with you if you want it will probably be mots of yes xD*
Deep rock is like how triple a games could be if the devs actually bothered to make a good game, and this game was made by a really small group on top of that
My bf gifted this game to me on steam like a month or two ago, and I've been playing it non-stop. We couldn't stop talking about how much we loved this game. I've definitely watched the yogscast play it years ago, but I didn't even remember it was this game lmao
One other thing I'll add about the replayability of Deep Rock - Mission variety. As you mentioned, there's (as of Season 1) 8 different mission types, each with wildly different objectives and cave layouts. On top of that, there's 8 different secondary objectives, which while not as varied, still offer unique challenges. Then add in the 10 different biomes, each with their own enemy roster and environmental hazards. Mix in the 19 Mutators, 4 Machine Events, and other rare events like Korloks or Betsy that have a chance to appear, and you've got a lot of different things that could still surprise you every mission.
I wouldn't say deep dives are most challenging, it easily goes to double hazard missions. I wish you luck when trying to beat a low oxygen/haunted caves on a 10 aquarq mission
This is by far the best PvE Coop-Shooterr I have ever played. I showed this game to my girlfiend whos FPS experiences were back then limited to using the bow in Skyrim (on XBOX). Now she has more hours in this game than me. Also: Rock and Stone to the bone!
I've been playing DRG back when it was in early access. Without a doubt, one of my favorite games I have ever played. The devs are really passionate about their game & care about their fans; the success of DRG really shows that. Glad to hear you like it too. Rock & Stone, brother!
I’m going to avoid any “I have 350 hours listen to me” stuff. I love the video and obviously see some things I’d correct because I’m petty, BUT for a greenbeard you’re doing good. I’m glad you’re enjoying the game. ROCK AND STONE! And I’d gladly play the game with you (especially if you’re up for hazard 5) And regardless of how much anyone likes the game you CANNOT argue that ghost ship games has the BEST business model in the whole industry
As someone with just under 800 hours played on steam,this game singlehandedly rekindled me & my friends love for coop, we were all sort of stuck doing our own thing occasionally meeting up for a game of round based shooter or moba we could be arsed to jump into but deep rock absolutely changed our lives.. now anytime we're online at the same time we just can't help but dive down to Hoxxes to hit the bugs where it hurts. It's a game that's somehow managed to make itself BETTER by the inclusion of seasons, the whole game just oozes with passion. Its made us all better at shooters,better at teamwork and above all else helped us refrain from being pointy eared leaf lovers! Rock and Stone miner, brilliant videe
1:46 there are many reasons why this game is incredible. But I think the most important is: THEY CARE ABOUT THEIR GAME AND PUT QUALITY AND CONSUMER FIRST
Also this game is AWESOME played with the DOOM soundtrack mod. It doesnt affect gameplay but man when the music starts getting rougher when the waves come at you, you instantly get pumped
To clarify, some mods are developer sanctioned, allowing you to keep your original save, but some mods you need to play with a different save that won't carry your progress over. These mods alter gameplay, so they won't carry over to the vanilla game
The way that DRG conveys messages and signals to me is unlike i've seen in most games before, or at least in this, it matters. I could probably play half of the game without text and still know what was what and where i had to go. Which i think is just stunning for a team of indie devs to be able to pull off.
The pinging system is so simple, and yet they implemented it so wonderfully it really almost makes it so text chat isn't necessary. That and the "rock and stone" button. So simple, and yet so wonderful.

In the video you said 7 mission types but only mentioned 6. You forgot to talk about Salvage Operations where you recover baby mules.
Deep Rock Galactic, 7 days to die, Satisfactory, Vermintide 2 all great coop fun !

Rock and stone!

Did I hear a rock and stone?
ROCK AND STOOOOOOOOO
FOR KARL!
Local Greybeard here, as someone with 350+ hours let me personally thank you for reviewing this game. Also I highly recommend joining random lobbies. The community is really welcoming and us Greybeards live for diving into the depths of hell to ensure no dwarf is left behind. Any way hope to see you on Hoxxes, Rock n stone brothers.
Season 1 HYPE 4.11.2021 DRG update!
Huh... maybe I will. Tbh I'm not a fan of randoms and have been playing on and off for like 2 years (probably got like 100h under my belt) and just finally promoted my main (The driller, he's dope)
Been tryna get some mates to play but for some reason they're all unwilling
@@mage0534 I get that, but hey you might be able to use update 35 to convince them. That’s what I’m doing with my mates.
@@mage0534 in 2 days comes the biggest update ever to deep rock =) good chance to find someone to play with =) good luck miner. Rock and Stone!
@@mage0534 i struggle to get my friends to play it aswell its a shame this game is a gem and i can get on and do 3 or 4 missions with randoms and its still a blast
One additional thing to mention:
This game takes only 3 GB on disk, and 1-2 GB to download. For the amount of content it has - it's incredible.
That's because all the worlds are procedurally generated.
Just saying this now: the community is nothing but nice, as far as I've seen.
The game is pretty fun, but with a friend or two it's like the perfect game to fuck around in.
There's defo toxic tryhards, but I've also noticed that the community is mostly super cool and nice especially when you play public missions. Folks are super kind. I main engi and I'll sometimes have a scout stick with me for several missions bc engi and scout work well together. I'll tell them that I gotta go eventually n they'll say stuff like "IT WAS AWESOME" or "ROCK AND STONE" it's just so :,,))))))
I once got a dude who kicked me for being got by a cave leech -_-
@@aarepelaa1142 This is what us dwarfs will consider a dick move.
Sorry for that fam.
nah
its safe to say that any game has toxic players. but deep rock galactic has a really welcoming vibe to it to the point that people find it harder to be toxic.
Only thing missing here was make sure you overuse your “salute” button! Joining a game? Rock and Stone! Kill a boss? Rock and Stone! Did you nuke your teammate by accident and have to go revive him? Rock and Stone! Has it been 30 seconds since the last time you said it? Rock and Stone! You get the idea…
Or salute to bosco because, loneliness
That is honestly the best way to salute or interact with someone,it is like a universal salute with many many meanings
To the bone!
Standing around trying to find Morkite and Aquarqs? Rock and Stone!
The best part about DRG is that the developers Ghost Ship Games actually listen to their players. You mentioned that the pipes on the Refinery Mission, that feature was specifically requested by the community because it's fun
God I love these guys
I bought this game at a discount when it was in Early Access, and even then I realized that it was something new and unusual. An extremely pleasant game in the gameplay, one thrill to play with friends.
I planned to do the same and missed the sale, i was gonna pass on the game but it looked too fun and im so glad i bought it anyway
Same
This game had and has great potential and is well designed.
Congratulations to the developers :)
I got it with my friends on Xbox 3 years ago when it just came out then it was then and now still one the funnest things to play with them it’s so unique as a game and especially late game gear is great.
I joined after Uncle Dane's video a long while back (before alternative weapons were added yet, I remember that much), been playing ever since. New update is going to be so damn good.
6 days till Season 1 Deep Rock update !!!!! AHHHHHHH
Great review, the "real" DRG begins when you have your first promotion (one character to 25 and finish the promotion assignment). Then there are machine events, overclocks and a whole new world opens up to you ;)
Also always play DRG coop, even if it's with random online strangers. Then you soon realize, why it's the best coop game currently out there.
Hear hear with always playing coop!
“Teamwork and beer will keep us together!”
V
V!
Hands down the best community I've ever interacted with. 500+ hours and I've completed 1 mission solo, with only running into 2 different experiences of toxicity. I've never sunk so much time into a game before, & the reason I have with DRG is the community. Playing a game with a bunch of greenbeards is just as enjoyable as with a bunch of greybeards who all know their roles to a T. Y'all are the best. R&S
V!
You forgot to mention the social aspect. The by far most important key is the "V"-key on PC. It makes your dwarf raise their pickaxe and shout an enthusiastic battlecry along the lines of "Rock and Stone!" or "For Karl!" - This is your main way of communication when not using the laserpointer to mark things or type in the chat, what makes you immobile for a moment. The mechanic is utterly positive and boosts the moral and level of fun of everyone involved. The community is one of the nicest I've ever seen in a video game.
And the game has got beard physics. Beard. Physics.
Rock and Stone, Brothers!
ROCK AND STONE, YEEAAAAAAAAH!
If there ever is a DRG convention of some sorts, i can already imagine how some person shouts out "Rock and Stone!" and then everyone in the room shouts it out too. The V key is genuinely one of the best features in any coop game i've come across.
Bosco can dig Aquarq out of the wall for you and can even bring loose ones over- just ping em!
The amount of time you took in a mission does not affect how many resources you get.
The engineer has a grenade launcher, not a rocket launcher.
Glad you like the game so far, and I hope to see you down there on Hoxxes! Rock and Stone.
The engineer has a nuke, not a rocket launcher**
The Engineer has a railgun & nuke not a rocket launcher****** also rock n stone
Bosco can also build pipes, and dig through compacted dirt.
Bosco is so good for minging, makes solo really a lot easier.
Or just play scout for those missions. That grappling hook is so useful
Not even a mention about the procedural generation? It's the best in any game in history. I mostly play this game for the feeling of exploration and adventure; even after 130 hours, every cave feels unique, surprising, and beautiful.
Dam, you're right.
„the best in any game in history“ you havent played a lot of games then....
@@Florian-tg9kc Ok, which games have better procedural generation?
@@myamdane6895 I could only think of no man’s sky and Minecraft with its new caves and cliffs update but I don’t think I really know what procedural generation is
@@BuhBungus Yes you do, both those games use procedural generation. Never doubt yourself!
Rock and Stone brother!!
Oh man! You love the game and have barely tried out Overclocks? That's like, the meat of the endgame!
I can't wait until you find the unstable overclocks that turn the Engineer's grenade launcher into a railgun, or the one that just shoots actual nukes.
Or the one that makes the gunner's autocannon shoot poison gas rounds, or Bullet Hell which gives his minigun bouncy bullets. Love those two.
@@Skrunkleosteus neurotoxin is a friendly toxin!
Cryo minelets go brrrrr
Or engineer's autoshotgun. Or RJ250. Or bullet hell. Or for the new guns having a swarm of plasma orbs, laser tethers which slow enemies, rocket shotguns, become a goo bomber, turn overheating into a source of ammo, have plasma literally everywhere, super acid which melts armor on contact, etc etc etc.
*fatboy intensifies*
Best experiences of the game:
- Playing with friends
-The millions of spiders crawling upside down in the abscure tunnel following you while you try to make it back to the exit as the fallen comrade you left behind screams for help, knowing deeply you will never see him again.
-The beer
Mostly the beer
Leaving a Dwarf behind?
Not very rock and stone of you
Sure hope you didn't leave Karl behind
YOU DAMN LEAF LOVER
LEAVE NO DWARF BEHIND.
ROCK AND STONE BROTHERS
:Yeah, Beer...
Hands down the best Co-op shooter I've ever played. Best community I've ever been part of too.
See you all in the mines! Rock and Stone!

6 Days till Season 1 DRG Update !! HYPEEEEE
For Karl!
@@jarmoliebrand2005 For Karl!
I think something that REALLY makes Deep Rock Galactic great that you didn't mention was the character. Everything in the game as a distinct 'character', from the M.U.L.E and all of it's little emotive noises when you tell it to move around, to the big drill truck. They all have specific personalities that are really easy to overlook but add a ton to the game.
MUSHRUM

DRG is one of the only games that I can comfortably play in co-op with strangers. The community has some of the nicest people who all just want to have a good time.
As someone with over 1600 hours in DRG, it *eventually* comes to a standstill in progression, but with consistent updates, that rarely lasts, especially with the new one adding an entirely new progression tree! Also helping out greenbeards (noobs/new players) is something to do in the endgame.
⛏
Yep, I have 1200 hours and only relatively recently got all the cosmetics unlocked. It isn’t quite the same type of progression as new abilities and overclocks, but for a game with as fun a core gameplay loop as DRG, even the funny blue number going up is enough
Oh, and obviously I don’t yet have all the season pass cosmetics, that would be a little ridiculous
LMFAO greenbeards
You know a community is dedicated when they have their own term for new players
1600 hrs wtf dude what do u do all day God damn. Actually nvm I know what u do all day
PSA: you can hold the "throw" key when you want to yeet items like the yadiz or aquarq pieces further
PSA test out the dash abillity, it is werry god when you get stuck in bugs or want to jump realy far.
@@audunms4780 Dash Meta, though I do wish we could change the bind instead of always having to double tap sprint.
Dash is my must have on nearly all classes for both solo and multiplayer since it recharges so quickly + you can do long jumps and keep some extra speed like that.
You can even super throw,there is a tech you can yeeted even further
Lol it took me until I had two stars on every darwf to figure this out
You know it's a great game when it's a 15 minute video telling you all the good things about the game and not even mentioning the amazing character customization options to make your dwarf your very own (including shiny gold skin, cus we all know we love the goooold!), as well as the way Ghost Ship Games monetize the game.
It might be an odd point for a video about "why DRG is awesome" but it is amazing that every DLC they make is only visual, no gameplay is locked behind payment. Not to even mention the amazing update coming on the 4th. Made me worry when they talked about "Battle Pass", but it's all free and no FOMO as they intend on making everything accessable even after the season ends.
This is the longest comment I've ever written and it's me fanboy-ing over a game, but it fits perfectly with this video I think.
ROCK AND STONE!
Jeah my buddies and me are hyped too !!! Rock and Stone!!!!! MUSHROOOOOM !!!!!
GSG's business model is what has given me an undying love for them. There are so many little things that add up to why DRG is one of the best games ever made. Hope to run into you on the 4th, miner. o7
WE'RE RICH
If anyone wants to know more about DRG (more details, such as music, weapons, support tools, etc.) I’d recommend checking out Sniss. He makes content over video games but mainly focuses on DRG. His videos are extremely well made and entertaining and I’d highly recommend them! He’s honestly probably one of my favorite creators!
Thanks for the recommendation, his videos look pretty good. I subscribed.
Let's not forget that the levels are also procedurally generated, so each playthrough is always different, it's a really great co-op game which is fun with friends and strangers alike. The game design naturally makes you want to work together and have fun without directly telling you to do it.
my absolute favorite part about it is that the devs don’t charge for their battle pass! and they said that after this season ends you can still get all the items! now THATS how you make a game!
Man, you gotta play with random dudes, it greatly enhances the experience.
Love rockin' and stonin' with any dwarf willing!
If you salute Bosco as you’re taking off in the drop pod, he salutes you back. Never fails to make me smile.
Got it in early access, got nearly 300 hours in the game, now and can confirm its the best co-op shooter i have played
Up to another 300+ Hours with season 1 Update in 6 Days !! For CAAAAAAARRRRRRRLLLL !!!!
What about killing floor 2?
Hey Robo, for the extraction missions... you can get Bosco to mine the stuff for you. Any mineral you have to "carry", Bosco can usually mine. You just highlight what you want Bosco to mine with the tool bound to the CTRL key. You're gonna have to highlight/select something else when Bosco brings the mineral to you (or just grab it from) so he drops it. ALSO Bosco can build your pipes for you!
well i didnt know that bosco can build pipelines, nearly 500+ hours of gameplay btw LOL
I still find it hilarious how a company called “ghost ship games” is one of the most active with there community that i have seen
If all you do is solo then bosco can build the pipes for you and he can carry aquarqs as well just helping you Green beards out
@Tomjo5 well if you are new to the game...
Wait. Bosco builds pipes, too?! Im going back in tonight.
"First is the engineer, my personal favorite" *Proceeds to show that the other 3 classes were never played*
Lol that means he’s gonna fall back in love with the game once he tries someone new
He said he played on consoles initially.
"Did I hear a Rock and stone?!"
“There’s a bar where you can drink away your depression from your friends not wanting to play the game with you”
I don’t know about anybody else but this is so goddamn accurate
Yes! Thank you! By the way i recommend to play online with strangers. Its really fun, way better than playing alone and you get to know new people. You can join people in the mission selector.
Yes, Ive wanted you to make a video on this game for so long! Rock and stone! (I wish you talked more about the co-op side of it though)
It was free on PS+ recently and I tried it with friends and randoms alike. I've only played this for three days, bit it's great fun. I love the great amount of interactivity in the space hub. I even drank loads of alcohol with randoms and they fainted so I had to revive them. I've only played the mining, egg hunt and pipe missions so far, but I like them a lot. The different classes all have interesting gimmicks and I like them all so much that I can't decide which one I play, so I just choose randomly. Even if I don't really know what I'm doing in a mission I still can collect nitra or kill enemies so I do actually contribute to the team, despite being new to the game. Running back to the drop pod can be intense and yesterday only one of the four dwarves made it out. Deep Rock Galactic (the corporation itself) rely just doesn't care at all. Plus, kicking barrels and hearing the commander say: 'Stop it, NOW!' never gets old.
you should do the trophies in the hub
I play with a group of four and this has got to be the most fun gaming experience I’ve ever had. We all use different classes and I main driller. It is amazing in so many ways. Even the small things, like being able to go ANYWHERE. Or the fact that you are almost never in a menu because everything you need to see is in the gameplay.
I haven’t had an experience with a game quite like this. I was enjoying myself and thought the game was neat about an hour in. I decided to do one more mission and had fun. But I did another one. And another one. I kept having so much fun. I leveled up my engineer and learned the class as I played, without having to ask the people I played with, or google. I began using turrets and distracting grenades as well as my secondary heavy weapon to take out large hordes quickly, and varying my load out, so one weapon dealt with hordes well, and the other one could take out heavily armored bugs, with my turrets just doing general damage. So much fun, can’t wait to play more tonight.
Happy to see a greenbeard putting out a video with very positive first impressions! We can always use new Combat Miners. Don't shy away from playing with random players, this game has one of the best communities, period. ROCK & STONE!
The other thing to remember too is that this is also a great example of a "Live Service" game. One that doesn't try to milk you while adding more meaningful content and stuff that's just awesome.
Speaking of "unseen design choices" one thing that blew my mind when I found out was that blowing the head off the exploders will cause them to not blow up when they die, and you have a deceptively larger amount of time to do this after they come up to you and start hissing than you would initially think!
Good to hear a greenbeard getting stuck into their work. Rock and Stone, brother!
Game is gonna be FREE In January so here I am 🙂
Greybeard here, been playing since pretty early on in early access. I remember the days of the old layout in the space rig. Still wondering if one day management will give us a firing range.
But on another note, you honestly really hit the nail on the head here with this review. GSG are not perfect, but when they goof they fix it. They take care of their community and have helped foster a really warm, caring community for their game. I personally prefer to play with friends over doing open lobbies, but I know a lot of people that do open lobbies and have good experiences.
Obviously at this time we just got update 35, Rival Incursion, which is arguably our largest update to date. It took a really long time for GSG to finally get this out the door, and it was delayed a good few times. But it's here, and it's good. And to top it all off, we have a season pass in the game now... That's entirely free. No paid component. None. Just play the game and get even more goodies (including more skins, the true endgame) for the pleasure of having done so.
I'm honestly happy seeing this game of late get a lot more attention. GSG deserves the spotlight, and it's good to see you've enjoyed your time in the game. There's so much more for you to experience too.
Rock and stone brother!
Nice to see some more love for this game. It is absolutely one of the best indie games in its genre currently. I feel its a bit of a shame though you didn't talk much / played much of co-op with randoms, as the community this game has and the interactions with its members is one of the games strongest benefits. The interaction between the classes are beautifully designed and everything about the game and its design philosophy aims to encourage teamplay and friendliness. I do hope you get to experience that side of the game in the near future. Otherwise, good review, nice to see you checking out this game.
Rock and Stone brother! Few tips for you.
Always get Barley Bulbs, those are the ingredients that let you buy the stat boosting beers like Slayer Stout or Dark Morkite.
Bosco is amazing and sometimes you don't want to deal with randos, but often times its not that bad and you can have some fun. At the very least you can enjoy the cosmetics of rando dwarves. Having more party members means easier traversal and better combos. The Engineer and Scout work great together because they can put platforms in those high up places where Scouts want to go collect.
Driller can often dig straight to the drop pod, meaning you can avoid running back through the entire cave.
Gunner shield bubble is a lifesaver, I always recommend getting the Medic perk on your gunner.
Driller + Engineer = BUNKERING! For those missions when you have to protect a fuel refilling station or an upllink. Driller can dig underneath it, lay a C4 and make a cavern. Then just dig under the uplink and make it fall down into the cavern. Engineer can close up the holes and traverse easier with platforms, as well as setup mines & turrets. Just make sure there is only one way into the bunker. Bring along a gunner and watch dozens of bugs die in your killzone.
Have fun! For Karl!
I'm nearing 30 years old, and I've been having a hard time enjoying games lately. My close online group of friends that I've known for years recommended I download this game, and since it was free I did. Honestly I can say this is a RARE gem of a game that keeps me coming back, and I highly recommend it to anyone thinking about playing it.
As a player who is not yet a full greybeard, but not a greenbeard either, I can certainly say you are missing out quite a bit if you haven't unlocked weapon overclocks yet. Since you love engineer and bombing stuff, no doubt you will find the fat boy OC (literally a nuke) the best OC to be. Also, even if you don't have any friends who directly play the game doesn't mean you can't make any. I don't have anyone I personally know who play DRG, but made more than a plethora of friends from simply joining randoms.
I know, on most multiplayer co-op games, sometimes joining random sounds like a terrible idea. But in the case of DRG, the opposite is true. If you don't join randoms, you ain't playing the game right. The community of the game is far better than any other multiplayer game I have played (and I have been an XBox live player, so I can assert to this claim). Frankly speaking, community-wise it sort of makes sense, as the game is far less about trolling (although if you do have friends to play with, then trolling your friend becomes mandatory) and more about just having fun.
No game has ever made me feel this wholesome, and it was quite a really nice change to the community (previous game I invested a LOT of time into, and I am talking about 8 years, was WoT) being far more accepting and friendly. Trust me, join randoms. You will not regret any of it.
Rock and stone, brother!
The matchmaking and the community for this game are also fantastic! Playing solo in the game can get old fast.
Ghost ship games is a great example of what we don't see a lot of anymore:
A game studio that actually gives a damn about their players.
So happy to see this game getting more love! It genuinely feels like sitting down on a couch with my friends and playing a classic co-op game when I play DRG. I haven't felt this way about a co-op experience since... Halo 2 campaign? Four Sword on Gamecube? Anyway, great vid!
Im going to say two things about this game.
1.I’ve convinced 5 people to pay full price for it, and we still play a few times a week six months later, so it’s gotta be decent at least.
2. He didn’t mention that the caves are randomly generated in one of ten biomes, so there are infinite unique missions, which get way better when he reaches level 25 and promotes. You get mini bosses in the missions, the deep dives, and unlock the weapon overclocks. Because how are you going to mine without the grenade launcher nuke, the ice mine mashinegun, a spiny plasma wheel of doom, or magic bullets?
Not a bad review greenbeard
I have over 300 hours in this game and it is hands down my favorite game of all time.
Bought it in early access when almost no one knew it. Now I'm playing it with my friends on and off monthly (which is alot for my friend group). So yeah it's a very good game.
you can tell bosco to do a lot of things aside from just mining, lighting, and killing
like finishing up the pipes, following drilldozer instead of you, salute when you salute, make cute noises, and reviving you more than you can count
best part bout bosco is he can mine heavy materials and carry them over, calling bosco by pressing the follow me button (default on pc is X) when he is nearby with this heavy material makes him toss it at you
these are just things i wish you put in the video about the single player content
you can also turn off bosco if you want to
I really love this game. Its my go to for down time in my busy life. I admittedly have over 800 hours and basically own/unlocked everything ahaha. Its always fun and the random formed maps really make lots of missions feel different. Its fun as heck with friends and still even so with random lobbies as the people seems very cooperative and friendly compared to other public lobbies in other games.
Ive got almost 200 hours in this game ive prestiged every character twice, I still have fun with it when i play. Rock and Stone!
best coop shooter right now, IMO. Rock and Stone!
Burn Loot Murder!
The driller class is what solidify my opinion on drg, flamethrower of fwoooshh
This game looks so good. I hope to play it one day
Is realy good, i advise to get it ass soon as it is finantialy advisable to do so.
I think its even on xbox gamepass, which you can get for 1 dollar.. however i am not sure if you are able to play with Steam players, so i cant comment on the xbox community if that is the case.
@@joakimedvardsson2294 That's some great information. Mine is more of a time constraint, and the games I already own that I'm chipping away at.
Green beard: fire driller
Grey beard: cryo driller
White beard: pro fire driller
I'm here after ps plus reveal
im honestly surprised deep rock galactic is finally getting the spotlight after playing and watching it fot YEARS
Not only that the gameplay is really amazing, it's the cosmetics is where it's at. With lots of cosmetics, you can create nasty, wacky, and cool looking dwarves to your hearts content. Even getting new weapon frameworks, pickaxe parts, and paint jobs so you can style your weapons in any way you want. I love this game so much!
And the best thing about the cosmetics? The vast majority are locked only behind gameplay! No microtransactions! Just a few dlc cosmetics if you want to throw the devs some extra cash & get something out of it at the same time. If I'm honest, I've bought all the dlc cosmetics even though I rarely end up using them. The amount of free quality updates has me genuinely wanting to give the devs more money. In other games, that's not the case at all!
Just started playing this week and loving it. Buffed players always help and make sure I make it to the drone at the end. Really great community. ROCK AND STONE!
Respectfully, I think you're doing yourself a disservice by playing alone. Drop in with randoms or set your party to public. TRUST ME!
Honestly I have to echo this, way too many new players seem to isolate themselves instead of joining up with others to have fun.
DRG is probably the greatest co-op indie game out there imo and the more time pass the longer the list of why its so good keeps getting longer.
Btw, "Extraction missions (I hate theses)" I feel personally attacked as it is one of my favorite mission type and I shall try to change your view on it somewhat.
- it is one of the greatest mission for solo players as you can even complete 100% of them without shooting once as scout.
- you dont need to go really far and the area is very open, making special powder scout and rocket jumpung engie feel in heaven.
- you have the plateform turrets taking care of the swarmers.
Some stuff I noticed from your gameplay that you might wanna know: you can order bosco to build pipelines. He'll do it until there is nothing left to build on the line. He can also carry large minerals for you (like aquar), so it isnt too painful for you to carry or harvest from the ceilings :)
In any case, awesome video! Rock and Stone!
PS: random matchmaking is never disappointing and everyone is always friendly so dont hesitate to go out of solo sometimes. Theres the official DRG discord which also have a special channel for people looking for people to play with. *and tbh im pretty sure you could ask anyone here to play with you if you want it will probably be mots of yes xD*
Play risk of rain 2,you'll like it,its an inde game
My buddy got it for me and now all I want to say is "rock and stone"
hell yeah commumity circkejerk video to wake up in the morning. ROCK AND STONE BROTHERS!
Deep rock is like how triple a games could be if the devs actually bothered to make a good game, and this game was made by a really small group on top of that
honestly the best coop shooter I've ever played. I finally got my friends to try it with the new update and they love it
My favorite part is you can go do missions almost passing out drunk with your friends
And you can even drink in game too!
@@IcedSynergy Exactly! And then you are blurry visioned and stumbling all over the place both in real life and in game
What a gem this title is
My bf gifted this game to me on steam like a month or two ago, and I've been playing it non-stop. We couldn't stop talking about how much we loved this game. I've definitely watched the yogscast play it years ago, but I didn't even remember it was this game lmao
One other thing I'll add about the replayability of Deep Rock - Mission variety. As you mentioned, there's (as of Season 1) 8 different mission types, each with wildly different objectives and cave layouts. On top of that, there's 8 different secondary objectives, which while not as varied, still offer unique challenges. Then add in the 10 different biomes, each with their own enemy roster and environmental hazards. Mix in the 19 Mutators, 4 Machine Events, and other rare events like Korloks or Betsy that have a chance to appear, and you've got a lot of different things that could still surprise you every mission.
I wouldn't say deep dives are most challenging, it easily goes to double hazard missions. I wish you luck when trying to beat a low oxygen/haunted caves on a 10 aquarq mission
This is by far the best PvE Coop-Shooterr I have ever played. I showed this game to my girlfiend whos FPS experiences were back then limited to using the bow in Skyrim (on XBOX). Now she has more hours in this game than me.
Also: Rock and Stone to the bone!
I've been playing DRG back when it was in early access. Without a doubt, one of my favorite games I have ever played. The devs are really passionate about their game & care about their fans; the success of DRG really shows that.
Glad to hear you like it too. Rock & Stone, brother!
500 hours and while I haven't been playing it recently, I'm excited to jump back in tomorrow for Season 01 release!
I’m going to avoid any “I have 350 hours listen to me” stuff. I love the video and obviously see some things I’d correct because I’m petty, BUT for a greenbeard you’re doing good. I’m glad you’re enjoying the game. ROCK AND STONE! And I’d gladly play the game with you (especially if you’re up for hazard 5)
And regardless of how much anyone likes the game you CANNOT argue that ghost ship games has the BEST business model in the whole industry
Thats because they let their gameplay do the talking.
Man, I need this on my ps5 like I need oxygen to breathe.
As someone with just under 800 hours played on steam,this game singlehandedly rekindled me & my friends love for coop, we were all sort of stuck doing our own thing occasionally meeting up for a game of round based shooter or moba we could be arsed to jump into but deep rock absolutely changed our lives.. now anytime we're online at the same time we just can't help but dive down to Hoxxes to hit the bugs where it hurts. It's a game that's somehow managed to make itself BETTER by the inclusion of seasons, the whole game just oozes with passion. Its made us all better at shooters,better at teamwork and above all else helped us refrain from being pointy eared leaf lovers!
Rock and Stone miner, brilliant videe
1:46 there are many reasons why this game is incredible. But I think the most important is:
THEY CARE ABOUT THEIR GAME AND PUT QUALITY AND CONSUMER FIRST
Just bought the game 2 days ago and I'm loving it
Rock and stone in the heart!
I love how the game is getting attention
Rock and stone, brothers!!!
i LOVE pipeline missions
(Scout main btw)
Hands down, one of the best original indie games out there. GREAT Co-op game
Just got this free on PlayStation, this game kicks ass and is easily one of my favorites now.
I find your exposition lacking some rock and stones... Carl was notified.
It's a good game to play once you're finished burning you're eyes with stardew valley
THAT'S IT, LADS! ROCK AND STONE!
This game came out two weeks ago on ps4. Since then i can't stop enjoying it
you're a madman playing this game singleplayer lol
Also this game is AWESOME played with the DOOM soundtrack mod. It doesnt affect gameplay but man when the music starts getting rougher when the waves come at you, you instantly get pumped
To clarify, some mods are developer sanctioned, allowing you to keep your original save, but some mods you need to play with a different save that won't carry your progress over. These mods alter gameplay, so they won't carry over to the vanilla game
What a coincidence I just started playing this game like a week ago and I already love it. As always RoboKast good job on the videos
Welcome new miner !
The way that DRG conveys messages and signals to me is unlike i've seen in most games before, or at least in this, it matters.
I could probably play half of the game without text and still know what was what and where i had to go. Which i think is just stunning for a team of indie devs to be able to pull off.
The pinging system is so simple, and yet they implemented it so wonderfully it really almost makes it so text chat isn't necessary. That and the "rock and stone" button. So simple, and yet so wonderful.
This is probably the closest we will ever get to "Left4Dead 3"
I'm guessing I'm not the only one here with countless hours in drg already. Sometimes it's nice to see someone praise your favourite game
