Deepwoken Retrospective: 2024

[@merhaculous395]

seeing dan vr not hate on the devs for once is CRAZY

[@mangaor]

i wouldn't say hate per say, but rather interesting criticism 😭

[@nanner6335]

It feels like they have no more passion for the game, the last 3 months.

[@Lucky_OctoNugget]

DanVR being the voice of reason to quell the rage is a plotwise i didnt expect but we definitely needed

[@DanVR1]

It’s been rough lately

[@kirbycoolguy1918]

ok but the real question is what happened to hybrid mantras. that was such a cool idea that they just scrapped completely. (the actual mantras we got were pretty terrible though, who thought permafrost was ok)

[@dvnitys]

Tbh who knows, maybe we should be glad that they didn"t continue to add more hybrid mantras since they are making busted mantras like permafrost.

[@kirbycoolguy1918]

@dvnitys I mean we now get stuff like that in the form of weapons anyways so it really doesn't matter

[@Angero_]

thats the last thing id be concerned with rn

[@omarfakhoury4483]

i mean flashfire kick was pretty decent

[@extendedmag9411]

Its not.. gone or anything, devs could add more hybrids whenever they felt like developing or adding more hybrid mantras Its not like they removed their ability to do so

[@V7Z6X]

no way bro got put under lord regent's veil and started saying kind words about the devs....

[@dagogogoch]

the ministry done got him

[@Klaustheking]

unc trying his hardest to look on the bright side

[@Lucky_OctoNugget]

Hating aint gonna solve anything, they clearly dont care

[@determi999]

this aged well

[@lorehunternatalie]

the new cake is related to an oath or dormant splinter dont give up hope dormantermi

[@trakan7971]

It was JUST uploaded bruh

[@banjo.mp4]

one update dawg

[@calmestcircle]

my glorious goat danvr is the only deeptuber uploading quality content instead of slop 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

[@DanVR1]

Why thank you

[@Radukem]

I strongly belive that make the mantra fatigue a thing inside the game would save the problem with the mages

[@nvrSuri]

The world, NOW, feels more like a ghost town and empty with 20k players than verse 1 with like 7k to 8k players

[@Fiotrix]

its cool to see so much new content being added all the time, but with the developers entirely ignoring balancing, its hard to try out any unique builds without them being dogass

[@AnonyAnomaly]

danvr.... oh my goodness... what happened, dan....

[@PrysmicVoid]

hi anon

[@Burntayo]

I think this video was very spot on.

[@My_Mental_Capacity]

You either die a villain or live long enough to see yourself become the hero

[@Jnst3than]

Crazy quality vid dan, it was nice to hear someone praising the weeklys, i agree with pretty much everything. great vid

[@schizophrenic512]

The quality of the editing on this video is genuinely remarkable man keep it up

[@xeno4858]

This truly was the Year of Deepwoken.

[@Jabrily]

you cooked with the editing holy

[@HARRAWISH]

2:39 Yeah but instead of a legendary weekly slop they could be adding something that actually improves build varriety instead of adding another meta/useless weapon think about enchants/bells/ maybe even new talents/ new equipment

[@Signy-X]

I agree

[@notkyu3077]

bring back old shrine of order it would be balanced in the current meta at this point

[@littlehamham3281]

@notkyu3077 no.

[@forbiddencrystal4045]

wonderful video. i like the new editing style and thumbnails. keep on going because this is very engaging

[@thecomet653]

11:49 i beg to differ there have been so many insane bugs throughout the game

[@blue__9281]

He says this and then all we get on the weekly is a cake recipe

[@myxy4777]

the cake is related to an oath

[@Lazyjez]

"Why did I just lag out" got me lmao

[@drawlord8935]

W thumbnail W intro W editing

[@routernine]

the strongest battle grounds thats what deepwoken is in 2024

[@loleee6708]

Imo the best weekly was the one where they added the 17 new weapons in verse 1

[@MrChez.]

you are completely right! i only still play to make fun off-meta builds with the new weapons and stuff

[@hyo44]

6:56 another huge issue with saramaed is them constantly trying to bloat it with new items to make it seem interesting when its just not. iron requiem, simmerbloom, hellflame, the splinter, all of these have been lazily thrown into the dungeon and the devs have crossed their fingers hoping we'd go into it and play the mode even when its a barren boring wasteland

[@goinforaschwim2119]

I would be fine with all the weekly updates but often times they will make some Overpowered weapon or mantra that makes other content not worth it. its like removing build diversity by adding more. you can still make these more fun builds but the 4 hour grind (even if its less it FEELS so long and tedious) to make anything. I havent played deepwoken in multiple months and I do want to make like a new fist build with the broodalloy ceastus cause It looks fun and I never made a fist build, but to get to that point is just awful. also the lag is horrendous when I played it.

[@mintuy_4152]

Great points Great Edit Great Video

[@jonimat]

daniel virtual reality is a man of the people, by far one of the few big youtubers to actually critique properly the state of the game without constantly glazing it

[@Overlordgaming1208]

Its rewind time

[@michaeljordan4355]

Nice video and i like the way u edited

[@Spruce_XI]

Really well researched and well edited video, thanks dan

[@under_cal]

im glad someone FINALLY said that were eating good im still pissed abt not having conquest or world events or void tower but people dont notice we get REALLY big updates every week and that the size of verse 2 was simply the exception and cannot be expected as the standard

[@alexjpeg1]

yo this video was really well edited, good job man

[@moons7871]

DAN I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS LIKE THIS MAKE MORE OG

[@saulgoodman9449]

we get thousands of potential builds with new updates just for mfs to run new weapons on jetstriker full feinforced armor builds every time 🦍

[@nicholasrussell9107]

love this style of editing dan keep it up

[@LordOpium]

Im gonna be so honest its not about slop legendaries and stuff its more balancing in this game is horrendous.

[@TijnHams]

hi twin

[@LordOpium]

@@TijnHams wawowawo

[@Octopusgoose-x5u]

honey, wake up! a new DanVR vid dropped!

[@ironbanhammer3492]

I know this comment will probably go un seen but I'm really hoping their plan is to release conquest and world events at the same time so we get a huge update for the wait and we get something for both pve and pvp players

[@TijnHams]

I think it's the way to go. Our expectations have risen so much that it would be the best to satisfy us.

[@Kyrsta-q2t]

1:45 IS THAT AN HOURS REFERENCE?

[@gunsinposes107]

yes, yes it was friend

[@shiningducky8121]

Hours is so goated

[@Kyrsta-q2t]

@ subject + oc dirt = 1k+ dmg. I can tell u the combo if u want fr

[@Zhombly]

Hours X deepwoken would be an interesting crossover

[@randiepeps]

The whole year can be summarized in 2 words, “whens conquest”

[@JostDraws]

Back then the mostly broken stuff was some hidden untested combination of talents or features noone remembered, but now its everything thats coming out pretty much, lasts some weeks being op then gets nerfed later

[@archrono]

the music choice is fire bro what songs did you use???

[@JusArcadian]

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time It's the Title Screen OST

[@govnolep]

10:27 bro really did miss the shadow teleport

[@EmperorBocky]

ABSOLUTE CINEMA ✋😸✋

[@Ritheix]

if 2025 deepwoken don't bring us back to the good ol deepwoken. Then imma crash out

[@zenazouzu1607]

what do you think “good ol deepwoken” is? Genuinely curious

[@moimai-qw1wi]

@@zenazouzu1607 scrap modifiers n make the game 3x less laggy n it should be good

4:58 MONEY!

[@societyyyy]

2:39 everyone is jetstriker and everyone goes the same 3 weapons for every attunement

[@Piggen-c5n]

I really hope the devs see this, this Chanel might save us yet

[@m0ggyP]

A very good video

[@PackRodent7]

I just kind of wish it wasn't always legendary weapons. I'd like to see some just, cool normal weapons, some more mobs, some more just, lower tier loot.

[@Some_guy0-]

1:55 "effort" is too generous tbh.

[@weee3946]

conquest is the biggest sunk cost fallacy

[@cantthinkofaname-lx8st]

this isn't agamatsu's youtube channel where am I?

[@DanVR1]

Central lumient

[@Baldchoppa]

This week’s update was 1 mantra. They better have added a way to awaken the dormant splinter.

[@victorhimanclan5802]

This weeks update was only worked on by archmage lol

[@joshbennett2822]

when i think of slop weapon i think of a weapon that doesn't follow the normal game mechanics like for example how pale briar doesn't have parry frames on its critical.

[@adija8655]

I agree, we shouldn't shit on the devs, they update the game alot. People hate the weeklys because its always a new legendary weapon, but with the new weapons we get alof of new builds that we can make. The main problem is:" what new is there to do with those exact builds".

[@cyberman0321]

I really wish this game could find its way again. Even after putting it down for good, it still makes me upset that deepwoken is just a directionless mess.

[@enigma0950]

Absolute cinema

[@lukeduval2141]

It's currently the next day and the update hasn't come out. I am shaking and crying.

[@wrigls9399]

11:00 shadowcast is STILL the most busted element though

[@spx7660]

the switchup unc did is crazy

[@retroverser]

danvr locked in on editing

[@WanderingSh0gun]

The one time you don't hate on the devs and then they drop todays update LOOOOOOOOL

[@DanVR1]

real as hell LOL

[@utclack]

w take honestly

[@Skelly_101]

For me the worst part was when weak block was implemented.

[@moons7871]

Deepwoken wrapped

[@ohm8334]

there was NOT in fact a weekly update today

[@yosh1xd701]

Daddy Dan might be the one who saves deep due to not being a meat rider

[@loccoc_magnotta]

archmage is just onett with bee swarm all over again

[@scarx776]

someone needs to confront the devs and ask them on what's going on cause archmage seriously deserves all respect from the deep community and it just pains me to see all the ''dev slander'' when he is trying his best while other's ditched the game to work on something else especially rag

[@scuffedanime4919]

2:46 hundreds of possible builds yet there's like 12 being used

[@SkibdiToilet-kq6op]

13:25 can’t agree more like what was the incentive for adding things like flame sentinel into the game🤦‍♂️

[@arona2685]

ad at one 1,3mins is crazy

[@ezquickdeath]

from 0:01 to 0:39 was all true and exactly how i feel

[@zapaloti]

Dan dw layer 3 and central luminant will drop once I awaken the dormant splinter

[@Norwoodboys]

Unc, do you have a Christmas vid you plan on dropping?

[@nono-dy8ce]

this was part of the conditions to get unbanned from restores 😭

[@abdousgames]

WE GOT MORE FRESHIEEEES

[@Ryhre]

the devs cooked this year and i dont think they have really lost the passion however it seems like the devs dont really care about the original vision. the lore has gone the shit, the characters are redundant. cool open ended lore implications are just churned into slop oath quests.

[@welowcobbleshnat9914]

Only good lore wise update (in my opinion) was the dormant splinter

[@jordanren2949]

Being fr tho what was the last thing we know fino made? Pyre keeper?!?!

[@zaherbaveaur]

the balancing might get worse than rogue soon

I get your point and all but theres no way you called diluvian fun and cool. Name 1 person who plays diluvian for fun.

[@LargeManMax]

its fun for the first time, not much after that

[@MrBlind-kr4vq]

tbf balancing, if this was a only-PvE game the problems of PvP would not exist. Most roguelike genres tend to stick specifically on PvE

hundreds of builds to be made but chime builds are always the same 😭
