3 Changes to Make DEEPWOKEN FUN Again…

[@FOEBOS]

I heavily agree with almost all of these changes, though such a massive overhaul will put a lot of people off from the game, it will still improve the quality and fun of the game a ton. I feel the whole passing down one mantra thing will be more of an opportunity to have the metamancers metamance harder, rather than being able to create more unique builds, but with the right limits it really could be what deepwoken needs to keep fights fresh, and feeling new, with a lot less of seeing copy paste builds in chime, and less hardcore ultrasweat buildmaking for overworld fights.

to be honest you hit the nail on the coffin with this one, i dont really play deepwoken anymore but IF THIS gets in im def getting back into this, and probably thousands other ppl too

[@iamraginghard4486]

Definitely applies to me too, I feel like the biggest reason why I quit is the fact that I don’t want to keep spending a ton of time progressing, wiping, and losing all my progress. Making it easier to end a slot would fix this issue

[@KickSilverOMG]

So basically make the game less of a waste of time, and actually have a progression post-death that cuts down-time even more, what you mentioned here is the real rogue-like genre. I 100% agree.

[@Miles02c]

you made so many good points in this vid please continue cooking instead of setting the entire fucking kitchen on fire

[@andrec.8208]

They need to really focus on that echo system and make wiping not like losing your child, if they managed to make it so you are exicted to create a new character from all the things you will unlock/recieve I can imagine it being great fun to keep playing and to use echos to like start at Power 5 if you unlocked everything

[@LeviathanKoda]

being able to dump like 100-200 echos into a shrine in fragments to make your next run have a random tarnished bell (only obtainable if your previous run had bell), that can be untarnished when you hit power 15+, getting a yun shul wish every other lvl or whatever till 20, would be pretty cool ngl

[@FaulPeople]

That isn’t balanced at all bro-

[@gladesad2557]

@@FaulPeople yeah your right its not, its actually terrible a random bell sucks for you build you would probably need to reroll it later when you could have gotten better choices if you got bell normally

[@LeviathanKoda]

@@gladesad2557 it wouldnt be really good or really bad just kinda an interesting mixup to progression, plus im a strong believer that apart from very niche geared builds, bells dont really have a huge impact rn in how your build plays they are just random utility so your build wouldnt really be ruined if u got like jar of souls or windup when maybe u wanted shard bow or sacred field

[@FaulPeople]

It's still pretty op since the random bell could be rerolled or be a legendary.@@gladesad2557

[@melarier5389]

Although its quite hard to implement, one suggestion would be to make monthly questlines to further expand the world's lore and to just add content. Most of Deep's community are thirsty for lore, but most of it is currently locked from the player as of now. It'd be nice to see an effort to expand the world. I mean, it shouldn't be hard to implement a monthly questline, they aint't lacking in budget at all.

[@DeadlyFortato]

Only problem is this would push back major updates even more than weeklies

[@nair9324]

i think a nice change would be being able to remove some stat points and reinvest them, i can count like 4 different occasions where i accidentally put a statpoint in the wrong stat on accident and just completely cockblock myself from hitting the stat requirement for something i would need like a talent or even an oath. (maybe once you hit level 20 you can reinvest those last 15 points as you please but add limitations so you dont abuse it to level mantras and such)

[@TijnHams]

Honestly I did not listen to the yapping one bit I was more curious into the build prog

[@PowerAids]

y'all saying to not let him cook dont realize his only mistake was the purge, which isn't even that bad if you're not a perma freshie and you're halfway decent at the game because the purgers cant press f or use mantras or dash or block, they're basically tankier mudskippers, and also if the purge went the bad way, it's because of the horrendous community who used this as an excuse to gank freshies

[@stormpoop]

Like they weren't already doing that

[@eldenberries]

I think all of youer suggestions are pretty valid since they are nothing more then QOL and not to much insane difference that would make the game a simulator.

[@branbeastymode1795]

tell me why bro aint on the dev team already like we need this NOW

[@xX_One.Above.All_Xx]

I've been saying some of this stuff since deepwoken released. There isn't a single roguelike on roblox that actually does what makes actual roguelikes work. There's nothing post death. Having unlockable content accessed by dying and completing difficult challenges has been the backbone of the roguelike genre for DECADES. Deepwoken is the premier roguelike on roblox yet its hardly even that. The only thing deepwoken has in common with roguelikes is that you lose your progress when you die. And on top of that I want MORE talents. They've been doing good with the dual attunement onces, especially volcanic glass. Builds are already pretty unique if you try to make it unique, but the ones with the same central idea are almost always the same. I want people to have COMPLETELY different builds when they just have the idea of "a fire heavy build" or "a lightning gale medium build". Every run in a roguelike is completely unique and you will NEVER have the exact same one. That is something deepwoken DESPERATELY needs. I gave up deepwoken a while ago because its all the same. More talents like volcanic glass are a must. It's not a true proc chain, but it's close enough for me. I want my talents to work together in a way that is fun and interesting. Like if I used firepalm on tornado I want it to become a fire tornado. Things like that would make the game so much more fun and interesting. Everybody is hung up on keeping things balanced when balance has never retained a playerbase. Content will always be king and archymagey and ragoozer need to throw away any concerns and worries they have and jump head first into whatever ludicrous ideas they can think of

[@lolfoxmaster4870]

To be honest, purge week is a cool idea, poor execution. I never see people actually fight everyone, it’s just freshie grippers. When I go on my max level slots I rarely get ganked while on the other hand, while I’m on my freshie slot with a bad dagger and all my mantras take half my ether bar. I’m a GTA 5 criminal with 5 stars getting jumped left and right.

[@someonexdxd]

These changes would be terrible without making the game harder so that getting to lvl 20 is hard but fast if youre good

[@spaceqwertyy1184]

but to be honest, deepwoken is, and will always be, a pvp game. why bother making the progression so long, tedious, and """hard""", when you put in all that work just to get a few good fights in before your build inevitably wipes? artificial difficulty does absolutely nothing to help the game.

[@squid3430]

He’s saying all the right things! Fr tho if progressing was significantly faster (I mean significantly.) it would encourage people to try even crazier experimental builds and do even riskier dumber things since the fear of having to spend hours progressing would be gone. No one wants to play a rougelite where you spend so much time just leveling when there’s much more to do on your build.

[@Skittles1062]

I think they should make boats customizable with like colors and a statue at the front but also faster and you can upgrade them with more notes like like the 4 things are 1. Armor 2. Damage 3. Speed 4. Boat and they all have 5 lvls but the 5 lvl is unlocked by echos and you have it forever for 50 and it’s only once now this would have to be change a lot what I said is might be kinda confusing I would explain it more if you want me too just reply if you want me to really explain everything they also need more mobs in the ocean and I think a world event could be a giant tower in the water you would climb up with different lvls of mobs and a boss at the top like a new one that summons mobs

[@lolfoxmaster4870]

Boat fast travel is a W idea. I’m trying to spin back on a freshie gripper and I gotta sail for like 20 years to get to their spot. They probably have to leave because lunch is ready or its their bedtime by the time I come back there.

[@flik9149]

Can other deepwoken youtubers actually take note? Why does every other creator just upload 3 minute videos that serve zero real purpose.

[@angrycoffeekid]

Completely agree with this video. We certainly need more roguelike shit, not just "increase the difficulty" with making a harder enemy or whatever. I want more permanent unlocks and eectet stuff. Hide secret talents like with aerial assault, and to make this fun you could make these things optional between eachother to make people go out and make unique and fun builds. Fuck it, they could make unique functions like linkstrider and shit.

[@naniuss]

They need to stop focusing so hard on nerfing and work more on buffs and reworks. The more you nerf the less things will be used, frostdraw is a great example of this. Nobody uses ice spikes, ice blades, and plenty other mantras because they were nerfed to hard. Just because people use one thing alot doesnt mean it needs a nerf, it means the other options need more insentive to be played over the most used.

[@canyonf411]

Always Afk you mentioned that you play risk of rain 2, i would think it would be really cool if you made a video on it because its one of my favorite games and your a really cool youtuber! 😸

[@katsune-e]

My friend said that you killed him during purge week. If you did kill him, thank you, he was getting annoying.

[@Soulflet]

These changes are all in the perspective of someone who has played the game for thousands of hours and has milked it dry. Many people who have not done these things would wholly disagree with every point you've made here. For example the progression, you want it to be faster but this takes out all the learning and time gone into a character. This is the meat of the game and it would hurt the game to reduce this. All of these changes are great... In a speedrunners perspective.

[@AlwaysAfkVEVO]

I've formed these opinions since day 1 of playing the game, I just haven't put them into a video until now. Trust me when I say I know what works for rogue likes and deepwoken doesn't do a lot of things the way an actual rogue like would do them. These changes would help with player retention, longevity, and bring back a ton of players who quit years ago.

[@upbeat6639]

I agree fully. It's not that his opinion is necessarily the issue, but rather what they're trying to implicate for other players, whose enjoyment might be compromised based on a message they might not even agree with. It's just that those that actually participate in purge week will be mostly/disproportionately experienced, seasoned players which resonate more with the "it's not as fun as it used to be" sentiment but forget that they're no longer the majority - the majority that actually make up concurrent players are not rogue OGs.

I've been watching Deepwoken content for the better part of 2 years now, but I've barely ever actually played the game. Everytime I try to get into it I can never get past Power 10 and can never find the interest to really try and go farther. Combined with the game being extremely hard to new players and the fact that I can just play something else always drives me away from it. If after wipe talents and faster progression were implemented then I would definitely give this game another shot. Really hope the dev team watches this video and changes Deepwoken as you suggest. Thanks for the great content.

Deepwoken was never meant to be an easy game. I am in full support of Purge Week.

[@LilyTheMentallyInsane]

Make the monsters have higher hps (mainly on non corrupt mobs) and make the monsters just behave like the ones from monster hunter world and the pve will actually be fun. The pve in this game has 0 strategy, you just parry then m1/mantra for EVERY single monster with no other mechanical depth. People will ask for harder monsters without realizing that if they stay simple with crazy stats, people will learn them and they will be easy again. Even something simple like certain monsters having certain weaknesses/strengths and weak points would make the game have leagues more strategy. Example: the sharko takes less damage in the back but more damage in the head. Edit: MAKE THE STONE KNIGHT VS KING THRESHER TURF WAR REAL!!!

[@jerichtw]

Amazing, but it'd take a ton of time, also for armor they should do what terraria did. Make it so lets say your wearing all the blacksteel armor pieces you can swim faster, or do 2x damage to blacksteel enemies

[@briarofthemoon]

Like afk you are a really smart guy and I havent found myself disagreeing with a single one of the points in this video, only that I have one more to add. MORE. LORE SHIT. As one of the FIRST lore youtubers posting my first few videos (all now privated) in the first month of deepwoken speculating and discussing the lore. I want this game to feel interactive and fun.

[@Gusta095]

About balacing, i think they should bring back Old shrine of order, It was unbalanced but Just for those who were bad, If everyone has an "unbalanced" build, then It wouldn't be unbalanced, its ALL about perspective. And lets be honest, If ur good u can counter most guilds ingame. its ALL about skill after all

[@argonicapple]

6:40 "Significantly buffed voidwalker bounty xp" my ass. A 5 star bounty only gives 2 investment points, i'm tired of this door in the face bullsh*t they're pulling on us. As for travelling they should make legendary bells accessible to everyone and not require a bell slot

[@tidess]

of course we'd rather have a balanced game. The only time its okay or good for a game to be unbalanced is if its players are not competitive but deepwoken's playerbase does not fall under that, as they are VERY competitive and metamancer, and overtime this happens for nearly every single game. Having an unbalanced game would just make the game more boring and unfun then a 'balanced boring game'. This exact issue was seen just recently with the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, where it was fun being unbalanced until it became competitive and now people complain about the balance of the game. That was an L take, but everything else you said in the video was a W idea

[@spxcingout2891]

You forgot two things, that fact that the bosses of this game don’t even feel like bosses yet you have to do these tedious and annoying quests to make an actually viable build, and the fact that in order to make your hair a different color you need to kill an actual fucking god. Overall solid video, 8.72/10

[@Navarr2]

I personally disagree with this but I get what your trying to say though the only issue I'd have is making a lot of content after your wipe basically making the game rebirth simulator. Forcing players to wipe to be able to achieve something wouldn't really be fun. Imagine having to wipe your power 20 Insane pvp build with Murmur and Drowned Bell just to get a couple of talents and oaths that are 15% better.

[@lasergopewpew9399]

[@bigfloppa8887]

Just make stuff rare again man. Im sick on seeing EVERYONE walking sround with cslots, rvanspears, and legndaries. There's almost no diversity with weapons because why got the shotel or razor cutlass when elemental weapons, shattered, curved, and ignition deepcrusher are better. I want it to be like verse 1 where not everyone had a curved. Getting an curvrd back then was real s#$@ but now its a high selling item to get notes with. If layer 2 will be giving rare stuff like curves regurally make it super hard. It's way too easy to do full runs.

[@epinator88]

While these are good suggestions, I still really don't like the concept of Purge Week under the current limitations. I think it's good for publicitiy, and getting people to aknowledge you and your ideas, so that was good. but a purge week just to kill people would be a LOT better with the wiping changes. Also, the boats idea is good, but make it at least have a cutscene, like Legend of Zelda, and INCREDIBLY nerf it, to the point where dinghy only gets you from vigils to erisia, and nowhere in etris. Other than that, great ideas!

[@adem8051]

The armor idea is kind of mid imo. It does need change but removing pips is not the way. Everyone would run the same hp kit and we also need something that has value except for legendary weapond

[@enchantedhasping4149]

Why am I enjoying purge week in deepwoken. Well it's not the answer you'll expect. You see when I was a power 4 in bandit Island I never really felt like I was in control. Now I'm a power 20 at bandit Island I get to choose which freshie lives or dies. You see I don't get off of the violence. I get off the fact that I'm picking which freshie lives or dies. That's what really makes me explode.

"Boring and balanced", so a game being fair is boring to you? What kind of take is that? Just play a different game, the majority of the deepwoken community actually enjoys the current state of deepwoken besides the lack of new content. If this is what you want, play Fakewoken or Rogue Lineage.

[@deus8133]

I came into deepwoken hoping to avoid the toxicity and pvp progression of rogue lineage, now im returning to deepwoken wishing it was more like rogue.

[@Windarkata]

While I agree about most of your changes, I disagree with the idea for fast travel using boats as it would basically make it so that everyone fast travels instead of actually sailing around and exploring like the game intended. I would instead suggest a rework of ships as a whole to make them more interesting and making ship combat a lot more common. It would be very cool to have hireable crews for ships similar to assassins creed black flag that could operate cannons for you or repair the ship if it's taking damage, you could have your deckhands man the helm in place of you or even sail you there themselves (with maybe fast travel being an option through that if you're not currently in combat). Just some ideas to make ships as a whole more fun and immersive rather than just making them skippable entirely

[@LeakingMollusc]

u sound like always afk

[@buzzlightyearpfp7641]

all of these seem very feasible, however my personal crackpot idea would just be removing deepwokens water all together, or make the game focus on it more i assumed deepwoken would have been very water focused, but its fucking not. we have like 3 mobs in total that spawn in water, and travel via sea is a slog. it would be 100x better if the entire map is 1 connected landmass than whatever it is rn

To be honest, I dont fully agree with the sailing changes. If you just tp to the island u want to, then what's the point of swimming beside the whirlpools and sea events?

With the other changes i agree

[@xaveryconcepcion2349]

I feel like they should add player only events and such apart of the lore and make an actual event with it. For example purge week, maybe if it happens again people can choose a side (peacekeepers and purgers) to get extra prog, enchants, deep gems, bell prog, etc. I feel like if they did a new event like this once or twice the month gives players reasons to grind and get back on the game instead of the usual balance changes and mantra

[@tyggrs1485]

ngl ur drip is crazy

[@Ryqs]

they should add armor sets buff which adds unique effects like if u got the ministry armor set u get a dark aura (cuz they use shadow) which buffs ur shadow and stuff like that and the more rare your armor is the better the effect is like if u have an ironsinger set (they should add ironsinger helm and boots etc) which makes ur vent shoot out metal spikes

I agree with so much of this but heres the thing deepwoken was never intended to be a "rogue lite" what do I mean by this? rag never intended for the permadeath to be more like a rogue lite but rather just the sake of having it to have more of a connection with your character which works temporarily. like recently he told punchee that the point to keep old builds is to wipe them... like what? and I also ask him what was the real point of permadeath and its just to make death more meaningful which once again only works temporarily.
