Thank you so much for your kind words 19:34. Fantastic video. Honestly just hearing you talk about it reminded me of how incredibly excited I was when I first signed onto the project. I just knew this game was special.

[@israphial]

Are you a developer of this game? It's incredible!! I've been playing top-down bullet hells for over 10 years and this one has me hooked! I'm super impressed with the level of detail and care that has gone into it.

This game is great, not as just a rouge-like, but also it’s one of the best WIZARD themed games out there. When you think about it, there’s not that many wizard themed games so Wizard of Legend really scratches that itch for me.

[@ryomaanime4563]

It's a little and far from perfect game but "Spellcaster University" is really nice to play if you like wizards (magic school managing, with a card system to randomize a bit each game)

[@NightmareBlade10]

Honestly I agree. I really like how they handle the player using magic as a basic attack. In most RPGs they'll have you sitting in place while channeling a fireball or a bunch of random projectiles that function near identically to each other. In this game you actually get to actually "use" the magic without being bound by an abritrary mana system and casting "spells". It's almost like you're actually manipulating the elements like the guy said.

I used to be so obsessed with this game some time ago and even when i don't play it that much anymore i still feel so attached to it that it's painful. I know that it's made by two people and they are probably doing other things by now since i don't see any news from them on social media anymore, but i really wish that one day they'll make another game that shows us more of the world and it's lore. By the way it's sad you haven't mentioned the dev commentary mode that you can select when you are changing language. It's literally my favourite part of the game and i think more people should know about it.

Tip for those getting into it: EZ mode is boosting crit chance with low-damage, multi-hit abilities and that one starter item that heals on crits. It's almost like the game gives you natural regen.

I'm glad there's people doing justice to this gem

[@LawsofPaul]

I would love to see them create a sequel to this game that’s an RPG or ARPG. After playing a ton I’ve found it doesn’t really scratch that “rogue-like itch” as different runs don’t feel substantially different. The combat, spells, and animations are way too fantastic not to be utilized in an adventure game. I could see the wizarding world being expanded as well.

[@ValeriaPaper]

I actually had a dream about them releasing an RPG sequel for WoL multiple times. I never regreted waking up more than i did then.

[@QuantumMecha]

That would be sick. This game is honestly really damn good and really damn fun-art style fits great, it could totally be even BIGGER if it went straight up RPG. I still do like the rogue like aspect, but really the biggest thing for me was finding and unlocking new abilities and trying new builds. The sheer amount of spells left you with a ton of shit to try. Wish I could just give these guys a bunch of money and just ask em to keep updating it! Haven’t played anything like it yet.

[@CrazyDoodEpicLeaves]

[@ecrosenow5194]

W GAMES FR

[@panda-tv5675]

My favourite thing about the aggressive playstyle design in wol is the fact that the signature spell is a use it or lose it kind of thing. Where once it's charged, the bar continues to drop until you either use it, or you lose it. Making it so that you end up using your super cool finishing move most of the time, or get punished by losing it instead :P

[@pjw6984]

Great video! I'm a bit late to the party, but after seeing this video, I decided to blow the dust off this game that has been sitting in my steam library since the summer and finally play it. You really put out quality content, despite being such a small channel. I'm looking forward towards your next video.

[@gonbad6865]

I have 205 hours on this game, which is the first of all the solo games I've played, and I love that finally someone makes a big vid about it. I hope it gets the most attention possible so we can get more people on this masterpiece. I love the vid, it just made me discover a guy that looks like I'm gonna follow for more content like this

I hope your channel blows up so this video blows up and more people start playing this game. I really want this game to get more major updates. For example, I'd love to see the campaign continue but this time against an actual villain. I want this game to get as much content as hades or into the gungeon. I really really really like this game

[@Thiriously]

Thank you for showcasing this game! I'm here after looking for something similar to Doomtower and I think I just found my next big game to play with my hubby. I absolutely loved the hunor and the editing and I'm completely not believed when I whine that its not just cuz of the beautiful avatar intro.

[@Drekromancer]

Thanjs for the insightful breakdown. Not only was it wise and thorough - it also helped me circumvent the main issue I had with the game. I felt like I couldn't master it bc I felt like everything was too claustrophobic and I constantly got stunlocked. But your breakdown made me realize that I've been playing all wrong! Now I'm excited to see how things change when I approach the game as a glass cannon, a whirling dervish of elemental fury.

a special note about the pvp in this game, while there isn't an in game matchmaking system, the community has created a way to play matches across the whole world, and the best part is you don't even need to own the game. all you need is discord and steam to play, using steam remote play we've been able to have many fun pvp tournaments and casual matches. if any of you reading this are interested search up Wizard of Legend League on KZbin to learn more

[@sirreginaldfishingtonxvii6149]

Game's great I always liked how you're _allowed_ to become super powerful. No arbitrary dps cap on bosses or cap on the amount of dodge chance you can have or what have you. If you get all those items together, focus your build, and you manage to pull your big brain plan off, you get to reap the rewards.

They did counter the "op dodge build" in the form of third phase sura ignoring dodge chance though

[@killuazoldyck7597]

Got this game not too long ago and have beaten normal mode once and the boss rush once, and it's definitely one of my favorite roguelikes that I've played. Been looking for an actual wizard game for some time, but most seem like they're very slow or just have the same spell with a different element (limited in what I can play though, only have an Xbox), so the fact that this game has quick combat _and_ varying spells is amazing. Had so much fun playing and I will ideally collect all Chaos arcana sometime soon. Also, can we talk about just how epic Sura's boss theme is? Definitely portrays the power he has, I feel. Mostly just wanted to rant about the game, it's very fun. Also, I may be several months late, but fantastic video. Really didn't expect a single person to have so many videos covering many of my favorite games, but I guess there always is a chance for anything.

I'm certainly going to use this video as a reference. This was a well detailed video of my favorite rouge-like dungeon game so far. I haven't played much others like Binding of Isaac and the i-frames I had no clue about. Some points I blame the game for some of the things that happened where I resulted in falling but most of the time I blame my self for that especially at stage 3. But yeah, the muscle memory can affect how you come into the game and how you leave the game.

I am sold on it's concept revolving around Avatar alone honestly. At some point it would be cool to see it finalized with maybe an element referred to as Order. Which would effectively be light. I love the 4 standard elements plus lightning. But I do love the concepts of light and dark as well for elements of some kind to manipulate.
