[@comet.x]

Hey so about the funny vertical point extraction, you can tell bosco to mine aquarq and he'll even pick up the aquarq and carry them up to you. This also works with fuel cells, mini mule legs, and anything else the dwarves can pick up. Very useful

[@rangerecho]

I remember my first death, an ebonut on the absolute highest place in the glacial strata, the one thing Bosco can't get I think. Also point extraction sucks on strata or weald

[@aaronli8843]

[@jimhorn3193]

Imagine a crossover event between Deep Rock and Terraria. They’re two of the biggest Indie games out there, after all.

[@jacobfoxfires9647]

I always viewed Magma Core as the type of zone where dwarves become men. Where you have to go through the Magma core at some point on some of the harder difficulties to get some hair on the dwarven chest. And in some cases it has the most nail biting and intense action sequences you could get in the game. Sandblasted Corridor is actually a favorite of mine. It's very spacious like a desert, it has some veridicality so that really does distinguish itself from other caves, and for someone playing scout it is really satisfying watching your flares fly across the huge cave. Also the explosive spores are my favorite type of vegetation in this game. It's a reusable explosive you can lure enemies into, and find it funny cause seeing those spores fly through the sky makes me think people are putting up an SOS signal. That's my personal amusement. And aaaaahhhhhhh. See I would of love to see the caustic mire to come about, cause I imagine it being the most hostile zone to travel in. Being so dangerous that not only the terrain but also the friendly wildlife would unintentionally try to kill you. But I do like the Hollow Bough as well. Cause the entire zone is like a scene from either Snow White or Cinderella. A cursed forestry area that has these unnatural vines blocking the path. It's like sure I like what we got still, but I did want what was originally promised. Edit: Also love that Reggie quote. Perfect thing to describe why DRG adds what they add.

[@sten9355]

The stabby things in hollow bough can go jump in a lake. That is an unreasonable amount of damage for a PLANT!

Whenever you mine bio material, the dig size is bigger. Whether it's the goo that encases eggs, the blue caccoon strands, or the material in the dense biozone.

[@SCANNI]

That's so fucking cool

[@ThatNerdGuy0]

i just thought, what if there was a survival mode of drg, where you play as carl, trying to survive underground, no hopes of escape, and you eventually dig your way to the surface, managing to get attention of the drg team, finally reuniting the group once again

[@CptKorn]

You're not alone in liking the RAZ, I love that biome However I also live fungus bogs and I think I'm alone in that one

[@electrum5579]

Chungus bogs ain't the worst, mostly because of the steam geysers blowing up greenbeards and MUSHRUM

[@derpqueen7804]

Just gotta say the description for Glacial Strata is my favorite

[@TheCrackersman]

Sniss ignoring the Loot Hoarder in Glacial Strata instead of abandoning the review and unloading an ungodly amount of ammo only for it to disappear because it’s an asshole... That got me.

[@retowhite5354]

I love your videos man they make me appreciate the details of the game besides just the gameplay. Could make an amazing film about the game I reckon

[@qaaris4280]

I love the unique voice lines for petting the Cave Vine. And yes, you can pet them, you just can't see the "(E) PET" prompt.

[@darkraiking555]

Just an old Miner's tale but I hear if you bury two minerals in the Wall Eyes they come out as a single super mineral. Imagine if you two Dwarves got buried in there...

[@muffincatgames]

Just gonna say, I also love Rad Zone, Green and Grey just work well I hope they plan to introduce more going forward, the biomes are a solid 50% of the game's atmosphere, as someone with nearly 2K hours, I am beyond astonished at what they've accomplished.

[@sniss]

with the two new biomes i realized how much a biome can add to the game, and with how many mission types there are now there is just so much to explore

[@kiitaclyzm]

Unstoppable is wild on glacial, it helps a lot considering it somehow keeps the deep snow from stopping your sprint

[@samus0908]

Loved the whole video man, loved the little Reggie edit and the last bit with Maroon was great. I can tell how much love and dedication you put into these videos 😁

[@RugsAreComfy]

Weird opinion sandblasted is my favourite biome. I just love the chill feel it gives me and the 1 hit is rly nice too

[@unacceptablecanadian9550]

Id like to see a cave that forces us to go outside which would be gated by an O2 gathering event of some kind. Maybe the escape pod lands outside for some reason. Id also like to see more done with beer, maybe have rare recipes that give buffs like the daily specials.

[@heavenlydemon5994]

I'm gonna be honest, ive played at least 30-40 missions in hollow bough and I have never seen one of those hive's

[@TsToastyENG]

I stopped playing DRG quite a while ago during Early Access. Thanks to your videos on the game I've rekindled my love for the game and I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much for reminding me this indie gem exists

[@DarkestDungeonFan]

here's a neat idea : Border Missions missions that takes place on the border of 2 connecting biomes, e.g. Crystalline Caverns and Salt Pits or Sandblasted Corridors and Radioactive Exclusion Zone

[@vienkss]

I love that simple logo channel

[@itscs1175]

Pretty sure the wall eyes in crystalline caverns are because geographically it takes place near the exclusion zone. So maybe the radiation is mutating fungi or lichen in the walls. It can also explain the electrical crystals being so charged

[@Mazerwolf]

Crystal caverns was the first biome i played on when i first started playing not too long ago, it’ll always be the “default” biome to me

[@lycandula]

I, too, like the Radioactive Exclusion Zone for a lot of the same reasons you posted. I like that Green/grey palette. What I like about the radioactive spike hazards is that they're harmful, but manageable. You can take them out quickly if you have he shields and health pools, but it's something that can prove deadly if you're caught between them during a fight.

[@lycandula]

PS I really like how you did the red vine transition when talking about Hollow Bough at 18:01 .

[@vizthex]

Hollow Bough is my favourite biome, the vines are just so fucking cool. Stabber vines are like shit-your-pants scary the first time, and I absoultely *adore* their wooden creaking and groaning while they move. Also seems like they re-used their stabby boi AI for the robotic appendages (which I really hope they rename because damn is that lame)

[@D77tcPelican]

I really hope Ghost Ship adds a few more biomes with as many features as Azure Weald, if not more. I’d love to see what other biomes they could think up!

[@declicitous1763]

Honestly your videos feel like documentaries with memes put in

[@codemon1352]

I remember when Magma Core was the worst, then they added huge coral and crazy cave gen for Dense Biozone, now Dense is the new Magma Core. Azure is amazing but Salt pits are still my favorite I think, Great vid sniss RnS!

[@CrazyCrayfish]

Salt pits is VERY underrated imo. The Roley poleys are annoying though

[@loganswalk8621]

I will say I do think adding Hoxxes's moon as a area could be neat concept give it lower than average gravity so dwarves jump higher and throw things further fall damage is also lessened because of it.

[@hvysupercool]

Hey man, I love your editing and narration style keep it up

[@raptorpeep2622]

im a huge fan of rad zone because of the breathers and vines, the big crystals arent heard to deal with (just a whack on the glowiest part) and the harder praetorians make me happy :) im proud of them

[@onararai8106]

What??? I am so surprised people dont like magma core. It is one of my favorite biomes because the hazards are easily avoidable and even the unavoidable earthquakes are really quick and pass almost instantly, which comes in stark contrast to the blizzards in the funny icy biome where not only can you not move in but you also cant see for shit
