Deep rock galactic's approach is close to a game like Fortnite where you are on level playing ground with people that are much, much higher level than you. It has not grabbed me as much as I thought it was going to because the progression hooks just have not really hooked me quite as much. So honestly, grounded has cannibalized. The power curve is such a small percentage of what this game is about. But every single thing that you do is going to make you feel stronger and deep rock galactic is very much a game about like that. Yeah. Both these games offer two very different things.
This week, we're playing Obsidian's miniaturized survival sim Grounded, and mostly talking about stripping Rick Moranis of his science license. Also, ROCK AND STONE! By which we mean: We're also talking about Deep Rock Galactic, now that we've all actually played it!
Also discussed: Binding of Isaac, RogueJack, Mars First Logistics, Near Dark, Q: The Winged Serpent
