Deadzone: Rogue

fun

So lets keep it simple, do you like satisfying gunplay and fps roguelikes? Then this will undoubtedly be your cup of tea. Can't sugarcoat it, its good, its clean, well optimized, it just simply works. The builds? They arent that complex, but they are varied enough that they're incredibly fun. The guns feel great, on both a mouse and a controller. Something I value deeply, as this is something that tends to get forgotten in the genre from my experience. If you're familiar with the genre, expect something akin to Gunfire reborn. The problem with recommending this game over GR, is that unlike Gunfire Reborn which has been getting updates for years, Deadzone Rogue sadly got near instantly abandoned in favor for a sequel. Now I wouldn't consider this game left in a bad state, as like I mentioned before, this game works, and it's definitely a roguelike. But after the ending of this game (no spoilers) and having played the demo for the sequel, it's like they split the game as if it were an episodic story game, into a sequel to justify charging you again. Speaking of charging you, I was fortunate enough to get this game on sale, and for what I spent on it (like 10$?) it was a great time with my buddies, but frankly, for the 25$ price tag they're charging for it as we speak, there just is not enough content or replayability to justify that. If you're into fps roguelikes, I recommend getting this on sale, as despite my gripes with it, this is still a very fun game. Will I buy the sequel? With the knowledge of what the first game costs, probably not until it goes on a good sale. small sidenote* This game runs natively on 32:9 super ultrawide, and is a genuine pleasure to play on there. So if you happen to play on one, this is dope!
