Megabonk

When it first released it just looked like some wierd Vampire Survivor copy, never gave it much thought.

But after checking some people playing it, it does indeed seems like mindless fun. I'm in some sort of gaming slump right now after 3 weeks of PoE2. Can't get into anything that needs you to be actually good at the game. Got loads of games in my todo list but just can't get into them.

Will get this one for the Deck for some in bed gaming and chill.

Every indie youtuber I watch is obsessed with it. I have not picked it up yet, I am currently obsessed with Death Must Die.

Yeah Death Must Die does look better to me. I never did buy that one. Have they added a lot since it first came to Early Access?

Shitload of content. Interesting build-defining mythic gear.

My only gripe is a limit of 36 skill points for each character tree. But I guess it forces you to actually strategize a build instead of hoping to fill out the entire tree.

Edit - my other gripe is that there is a farming strategy online but it is for surviving hands-off for 5 minutes so the shop can reset and you can browse for good items to buy.

But this is a Megabonk thread - I WILL get it, just didn't feel like it yet, even with the Autumn Sale price. The game seems to be about massive numbers of level-ups during runs.

Megabonk seems like the same luck of success as Schedule 1. One dev team that made something that popped off.

Just hope he can continue to add to it. Saw it had sold 2 millions copies now, thats crazy.

Meh, DRG Survivor is boring to me. I am not sure why I kinda bounce off it, but Idle Cub (indie youtuber) has 500+ hours in it.

I just bought Megabonk because I watched this video, and Asmon is so fucking bad at it, I have to do better.

Yeah, you can get 100k+ kills having fun, but if you want 1million+ you've gotta do the same cheese-dick item farming everyone else does.

The game needs more ladders:

Character Ladders
Speedrun Ladders
Achievement Ladders

My highest from a few days ago was 133k with Noelle before I quit. If I could see where I placed on the Noelle ladder specifically I'd bet money I would've been top 5. Why? Because she sucks ass. But I want to see people push "bad" characters more than I want to see everyone spam Bandit because he's meta.

They also do need to make the option to just infinitely go through stages and defeat harder mobs and bigger bosses. Even then with it's current state you'll probably be insta gibbing everything in stage 2 or 3 and run through everything until you're eventually one-shot by a goblin swarm after you run out of Zarwarudos.

And at this stage they definitely need to be able to toggle off skill effects. I've seen people with 1million+ kills die on the boss because they literally can't see the ground SEVERAL times.

It's got a lot of room to grow, but yeah, that climb through unlocks and your first time getting 100k is a 10/10 game experience. After that it's seed/RNG farming to set up a run and it's more like 5/10 gambling experience.

The quin vs shroud competition has been quite amusing. They're both clearly mega addicted.

Dopameme.

To quote a German War Thunder streamer I like named Polarfuchs.

Patch notes shook up a bunch of stuff. Dev said he hopefully fixed cheater leaderboards. Nerfed Joe's Dagger farming and Final Wave farming mostly. Said he's working on possible multiplayer which could be really cool.
