9/10 RoR (2013) was one of my all-time favourite games, and Returns is better in every way with zero downsides. If you loved the original then Returns is unmissable. It's basically the same game, but with nicer graphics, unlockable abilities for every survivor, two brand new survivors, actual online play, new enemies, new items, and new music. Absolute must-play.
Risk of Rain Returns is probably my favourite Risk of Rain- I know there's only two (technically), and Risk of Rain 2 is widely more popular and it has more content and it has more mods and it has more people and blah-blah-blah. I simply just adore the pixel art in this game~ :3 I think it's super pretty~ I love all the portraits for the Survivors~ And I really like the music~ I adore this game greatly~ Especially because I get to play Drifter in it!!!~ :D (I don't have Alloyed Collective yet~ :P ) I also really like the idea of the Providence Trials, I think seeing something similar in RoR2 to unlock more Skins or even skills again would be really cool!!!!~ :D (even if some of the Trials in RoR:R are kinda bs.... -.- )
El original represento mi infancia, y de forma no ironica cambio mi vida, este, es eso remasterizado, compralo si tienes la chance (Y recomiendo este mas que el original por tanto la expansion por que el anterior no tiene online bueno)
