红石遗迹 - Red Obsidian Remnant

My Quicktake on it (Parody): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JYrC4IfxGM I have since finished multiple runs on all difficulties TL;DR: [h1]Pros:[/h1] [list] [*] [b]+[/b] Intriguing Talent/Misfortune System [*] [b]+[/b] Fluid transition from one weapon combo to the next [*] [b]+[/b] Equipment stacking [*] [b]+[/b] Endless mode with Leaderboard [/list] [h1]Cons:[/h1] [list] [*] [b]-[/b] Bosses are always the same [*] [b]-[/b] Somewhat small selection of equipment and artifacts [/list] Red Obsidian Remnant can't quite keep up with the genre giants, but has a few unique ideas going for it. Generally the combat is pretty decent, it's not amazing by any means and especially against flying units, it can feel a little frustrating at times, but the 5 different weapontypes can be strung together quite effective mid-combo which feels great. While there is a somewhat small selection of artifacts and equipment compared to f.e. binding of Isaac, if you happen to find the same piece multiple times, it's lets you stack them, increasing it's level und effects over and over. Additionally you can encounter NPC's that give you little sidequests or can be hired as mercenaries, and plowing through …

You spawn in a room, kill stuff, pick a new room, kill stuff. Get gear. Gear has next to no variety. Enemies have next to no variety. The rooms have next to no variety. So what we have here is another game that's hedged all its bets on combat. And the question is: Is the combat good? Well inherently its going to be kind of lacking because of the enemy variety. But even beyond that? No. You get to take two weps with... okay movesets. And juggle enemies. Do it enough you get a super move to spend meter on. Its basic, functional, fine. But not satisfying. Its just so easy. The enemies barely fight back. The moves are too strong. One move in particular: There's a weapon in this where the super move is to throw it at enemies. It tracks them. It nearly instantly kills everything. ANd its basically free.

English is so bad you dont understand anything... which is a problem as there is no tutorial (another problem), and if then the text does not make much sense, its almost hopeless... Game also seems dead...

I had a few significant issues that contribute to a negative review: 1. The game refused to detect my controller... 2. ...so I tried mouse & keyboard and could not rebind my keys. The menu option is there but it doesn't save my settings. 3. On MKB, I cannot find the button to pick up items. It's not in the settings (although it does exist for controller) and I tried tapping all buttons on my keyboard while standing over an item and nothing worked. As for the game itself, I managed to get through the first floor with no items and it seems alright. But I cannot continue playing the game with obscure unchangeable keybinds (why is the default dodge bound to U?!) and being unable to pick up items.

just can't get enough great gem
