It took me 21 hours to beat the game for the first time.

Hopped on after a long day today, and was able to beat the game again on my first run of the night! Kind of crazy how fast we adapt to difficulty in games.

EDIT: JUST BEAT IT AGAIN TONIGHT BACK-TO-BACK!!

Proud of the progress I'm making! I can consistently reach Chamber 5 now, and I can often defeat Chambers 1-3 bosses without getting hit!

About 15 hours in, and the game still feels fresh!

Finally wrapped up the achievements after about a year and a half on and off playing. Really great game with some small frustrating elements(mostly keys)

Took some time, but once you get into it you're really gonna get into it.

It's a great game to just waste time in, if you wanna do something while listening to podcasts or whatever, but after a year or so of playing and ten hours or gametime, I can say with confidence this game is literally impossible to make any real genuine progress in.

It's a great game to just waste time in, if you wanna do something while listening to podcasts or whatever, but after a year or so of playing and ten hours or gametime, I can say with confidence this game is literally impossible to make any real genuine progress in. I'll never really understand this concept - "Hey, let's make something nobody can get further in!" - but it's mind bogglingly stupid.

But, like I said, still fun to just kill time with.

This new update seems pretty cool. They added a gungeoneer called Sony. Sounds coincidental if you ask me. Definitely gonna kill the past as them if you know what I mean. Weird since Dodge Roll stopped updating Enter but cool nonetheless. -\(ツ)/-

Tough game to progress in but is a fun way to play a quick round for 5-10 minutes of a gaming snack.

I can't tell if I actually like this game or not. Most enemies just feel like bullet sponges, and I don't think that feels very fun. Maybe the nature of that can be fun if I was in a certain mood. I definitely thought this game was fun back when I played it a lot in 2016 due to how …

I can't tell if I actually like this game or not. Most enemies just feel like bullet sponges, and I don't think that feels very fun. Maybe the nature of that can be fun if I was in a certain mood. I definitely thought this game was fun back when I played it a lot in 2016 due to how much I played it and how I rated it 4/5 on here. But now going back to it just feels infuriating at worst and numbingly engaging at best.

With most games I play, if I have a tough time enjoying it, I usually infer that there's a different mindset I can learn to enjoy it better. And so, if I'm feeling it, I'll read up on people's positive thoughts of their experiences to get a good sense of how I should approach the game -- to see if I'm playing the game "wrong" in any sense.
In this case, from what I've seen, the "controller vs m+kb" preference seems tied; you should expect to just get good by spending dozens of hours in the game; and lastly, it seems a lot of people who enjoy it are okay with zoning out to it while listening to something like a podcast.

And sure enough, that last approach is the best way for me to experience it, though that does make this more of a numbing kind of game. And do I really want to spend my time zoning out to a game that I've already spent 32 hours trying to beat? Nah, I don't think so. At least not right now in my life, that just ain't for me. :p

So guys, Enter The Gungeon or Swords Of Ditto? Which do you think is better? Cause they both look amazing but what I'm reading on Ditto especially has me nonplussed, like character selection and whatnot, but Gungeon also seems like something that'd irritate me simply because I'm not a massive bullet hell fan. What're your takes?

Also, if you're interested …

Also, if you're interested in what I do for a living, I just made this ENORMOUS patreon text post so you can keep up to date with my shit!

I need some advice.

I tried to play this on my PC yesterday but was unable because of input lag. The caracter takes an instant to start moving after I press a key or button. Even the mouse movement seems a little slugish. The same happened with Hollow Knight (I played it on PS4 because I couldn't on PC because of that). There's no frames drop, just the input lag.

I know my PC is old. Not a good machine. But It should be able to run this games.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Thanks a lot.
