    Shoot. And I was about to buy the other version… Maybe I’ll wait and see if this goes well and plays well on Deck. Any thoughts from fans of the first?

      The two games are entirely different genres.

      The first is an absolutely phenomenal coop FPS. While this one is a single player vampire survivors clone with the characters and theme of DRG.

          I had a blast playing solo. It’s not a game I would have ever, ever picked up if it hadn’t been free with PS+, because it didn’t appeal to me in the least. Got bored enough one day to give it a shot and I’ve got 100s of hours in it. Put it aside finally for BG3… for now.

          It’s alright solo, but it really shines with coop, and the community is mostly very friendly and welcoming. Occasionally you might get called an elf in a fit of pique, but I’ve personally encountered very few toxic DRG players.

          It can be depending on what you like. You have a flying drone to help you that isn’t in multiplayer because there you all have different abilities to cover each others’ weaknesses.

          Personally I think single-player gets stale and lonely quick, it’s just a lot more fun panicking and overcoming challenges with friends.
