Asmon is really the best advertisement for these types of games. The way he plays, the decisions he makes, it makes you shake your head to where you want to pick up the game yourself so you can do it better.

Asmon not gathering the materials has frustrated me into buying the game and doing it myself

This here is Asmongold's guide on how not to mine any resources and make some of the worst decisions possible, but still somehow win. A true legend

He never goes for mining speed, movement, nor pickup radius. Being able to mine faster is a life changer. Helps you be able to afford more in the shops.

Oh man. Glad to see him play the game again that CHANGED HIS LIFE!

Loot bugs just chilling, living life. Not a worry in the world.

36:10 No way! If only he "Mined Moar" His streamer luck would make him unstoppable Edit. Seriously. He's shooting himself in the foot by not mining. He is focusing on killing the enemies instead of evading them and farming resources. That makes the boss bar go up quicker and he ends the levels prematurely. He's basically doing main story quest with no side quests and wonders why he dies as a lvl 5 in a lvl 15 area.

If you Rock and Stone, you're never alone.

Loses 25% health* Asmond: "IM FUXING DONE, IM DEAD ALREADY, THIS IS THE END"

Investing everything in the turrets and not putting down any turrets was hilarious lol

My favorite is him panicing with full health.

* Asmon is killing everything * * one lava hit him * Asmot: well i'm fucked, I'm fucked, this is my last level guys

To be fair to "gunner", he did say that a kiting play style would probably be best and he ignored the majority of movement speed and mining upgrades..

i wouldnt even know this game existed without asmon played it randomly, bought it for myself and each of my siblings (4total) as gifts, 9/10 game, lot of fun, doesnt get bored even after 10th run.

love to watch you play a survival mining game but never mine lol. then complain about not getting enough upgrades. truly amazing asmon.

OMG the face he made when he realized he can place turrets while standing still...priceless LMAO!!! 1:13:14 starts from there for anyone curious :) lol

This engineer run where he constantly has 2 turrets ready to drop IF ONLY HE STOPPED MOVING was PAINFUL to watch.

Asmon's survivor game persona is my favorite haha. What an entertaining thing to behold.

it is 100% frustrating with it literally flashing on his screen "STOP MOVING TO DEPLOY TURRETS" and he wont do it, then bitches about having no turrets.

2:08:40 quote after a lvl up:"...I dont know if fire is worth it..." and 10 sec later he says:"... I like that flame thrower..."

Makes me want to see him play the ACTUAL Deep rock galactic

He should play deep rock galactic

How many times can you take damage mining and still constantly overlook mining speed..

I played the demo so much I had to buy it and have more hrs on this than BG3 this week lol

2:15:45 My perspective is Scout's best attribute is the fact that he's able to move around and dodge the enemies while he mines for the resources. Gunner strength is that he will kill all the enemies and get multitude of level ups despite being weak at mining. Driller takes it the opposite direction and is really good at mining, but he struggles to level up and get more of his weapons. Engineer's strength lies with putting down a miniature fortress of deployables so he can focus on mining. All in all, the only one that's really technically bad at mining is the Gunner, So if you're going Gunner and you need to mine your best bet is to focus on buffing your additional weapons that ideally target the closest enemy or the strongest enemy and Hoover up any mining speed bonus you see until you feel like you can swim through the rock and minerals pretty decent.

"Mining? I don't know if that's good."

This game is pretty good, it's up there in quality within the genre. There are some issues... some weapons are just trash no matter how many levels you put into them, and if you don't upgrade specific weapons (the same OP weapons each run, no matter the character), you will get rolled by the mobs before you can invest into things like +mining speed. This ends up feeling like you're doing the same thing for half of every run regardless of the context (map, character, etc.).

Mining is key because you get experience to level up but also more cash to spend at the shop providing you with more opportunities for cards, making it 2x more efficient than just picking up the shiny xp

I lmfao Everytime it goes from 0% win chance "I am FLICKED" to 100% win chance "Nah , I going to be able to do it " .. within a nanosecond 🤣🤣🤣🤣

100% allergic to all damage upgrades

Tip that any class can use: Bait boom bugs into exploding and then run away. The moment you seem them starting to shiver, they'll explode half a second later.

Whoevers message got through about the turret charge bar, THANK YOU.

I think He should play the normal DRG aswell

"There's like a core functionality of this game that I'm just like not getting" - Yes , running form experience and sometimes cornering yourself :)

Asmon flipflops from "Its Joever" to "We're so back!" faster then a windmill in a windstorm

Bro, i had like 7 turrets all with Plasma (bounces off objects) and wall breaking, it literally destroyed everything and i had like 4.6m plasma damage. also shotgun (warthog) works well with him, when you overclock shotgun you can get plasma too, and just level up all plasma damage. also always prioritize getting Nitra (red rocks) over gold. and stop wasting time mining red sugar when you're full health. good luck bro

He did say at one point. The more you tell him to do something, he is only going to do the opposite. He knows what he is doing, well what he is not doing I guess would be the better way to put it.

I like how he never goes for the usable resources like gold and nitra that would actually make him strong and skips the upgrades like luck that would give him better options.

This game changed my life. I'm so glad I played this game.

Duality of Asmon whole stream: "Im dead, Im dead, Its over". When crisis is overted:"It easiest game of my life". Rinse and repeat XDDDD

man I’m so addicted to this lol I think my raid leader hates me for playing it more then SOD

Man really needs to stop tempting fate and being hesitant to dig out.

asmon playing this actually made me wanna go back to vampire survivors and knock out every single bit of DLC.

He says driller sucks, but died twice with engineer before making it to last boss.

I bought this game because of your gameplay. It seems very enjoyable! Thanks for featuring this man.

Deep Rock Galactic!

sadly he never came back to get all Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe endings :(

Every 'like' this gets ill do 3 push-ups!

Another Petition for Asmon to actually play Deep Rock Galactic!

My life has been shitty lately. I might get this game so i can change it

crazy he hated on the driller so bad, hes the only class i want to play anymore

writing off characters before you even unlocked the overclocked weapons is pretty wild. You need to treat your first couple runs with each character as fail guarantees where you just rush each weapon to 12 and farm perma upgrade resources. Which you have been ignoring on the map like 80% of the time, this is why you struggle with harder difficulties.

ROCK AND STONE!!!!

New AAAAA game that asmongold like? Imagine all future games will be like that, lets influence more stuff like that, good work streamer

The thing is he is actually playing some really good games and making me notice games I would have definitely overlooked

This was like watching the opening of Scary Movie. Chooses banana instead of knife, sprints down path marked "danger" and ignores safety, etc...

Asmongold cannot seem to adapt to different class styles as I was watching him play this game he's basically been playing as a scout Even on the other classes. Drillers are supposed to drill tunnels and leave flame throwers behind them and always stay in the Mining tunnels. Engineers supposed to set up minions/traps around the Mining area and stay in a sort of kind of Simi-permanent spot until they get done with the mining and then move to another spot. Not move around the map all over the place. PS: That's why when he got the wheels on the turrets he was doing so much better because he was playing it as a scout not as an engineer.

How is he 3 hours into the game and still doesn't realize that he's mining red sugar when he doesn't need hp.

Engineer hands down is the best class on horde control, you just have to think forward on making choke points for your swarm ambush/escape.

Zach missing that you have to stand still to get the turrets out while proceeding to move constantly was a tough watch

I love the deep rock galactic franchise, and I’m so glad they’re reviving the series with this absolute banger!

I have it on my wishlist. Looking forward to playing it, just in between Palworld right now

You should kill the loot bugs they drop both of the currencies that you never have enough of.

It took him 3 hours to realize the red stuff is healing, 4 hours to realize about the turets and 5 hours to figure out that the slugs can be mined. Long time... edit: he did not realize that is useless to mine xp after the final boss is dead.

I’m so glad I watched this video that changed my life in 24 hours and gave me a lottery ticket that was worth 10 BILLION Dollars!! (No cap) (on a stack) (real) (this comment will get removed in 1 hour!! So like this comment quick!!)

I think the teslas would be op if used correctly. You have to funnel the enemies through them instead of around them. They melt the basic bugs and once the reload is increased enough, you can place 4 or 5 in concession that the bugs have to swarm through. It takes a bit of strategy. Mine a pathway through the rock and funnel them through the teslas while placing turrets. When you think about it, this is kinda like COD zombies in a way. You have to train them through traps and into narrow areas to melt them for a few seconds then make the round again.

The trick is to hatch the boss before the waves start intensifying which happens at the end of the stage timer Also never pick the paint job upgrades unless you’re going for a milestone. Your weapon has a level cap and you want to select real upgrades instead The shotgun does INSANE damage (and never stops firing) and clears the way for you when you’re moving. Asmon spent 90% of the time facing the wall when he had the shotgun lol

I loved watching him run around ignoring every ore he saw, bro is not a miner

Always choose “xp gain” it’s like wish for more wishes.

40:51 well, he's not getting the 4 kinetics this run now if there was any doubt when he changed his gun to electric. 😆

" I'm dead. I'm fucking dead. Ohh I'm dead." Meanwhile there aren't even creatures damaging him or near him & he has forced himself into a corner doing nothing...like taking 2 seconds to dig away.... Holy fuck

Just fyi, you need to get atleast 1 or 2 of the pickup radius upgrades, that'll help you gather the exp that you're missing. Also don't be afraid to walk through the burning areas, their damage is less than what you'll take from getting hit by the bugs...and one final thing...dig to avoid the bugs LOL So many times you could have just dug around the bugs to avoid the large groups and funnel them into killing hallways.

My first run with the borer was really interesting. I didn't really get any weapon upgrades, but I was zooming across the map, through walls, even through monkite. By the end of the run I had over 200% mining speed and pickup radius, with a good amount of armor, hp and extra xp to the point that I could just run through a group of explody boys without a care in the world. Which I actually had to do several times because my damage was too low

He plays every character like Scout and says Scout is better. Driller? Never mines. Engineer? Never stands still. Gunner? Never faces forward.

luck is better drops FOREVER it stacks and you become a total badass in late game "this weapon isn't that good" the electric fence is literally melting them you just need more electric dmg

Fun fact about the classes: Scout: Balanced, well rounded Gunner: Excellent at killing everything in front of him. Engineer: Excellent at killing everything behind him. Haven't played the driller. Not for me.

You've gotta keep in mind, that MINING is the top priority! You can buy the things you're missing out on, between each stage. And some are very valuable!...

The game is awesome but your used to just sit while abilities kill everything. This game makes you mine and kite if you want to be powerful to kill all mobs fast. It's such a refresh to this genre, I hope they improve it

This game in a strange way feels like it has way more depth than all those other clones, just with the way you unlock different characters and have to max out weapons to unlock the upgradable version. That being said I wish there was a way to go further beyond 5 floors, most of the time my build feels like it's just coming online

On the topic of these reverse bullet hell style games, it would be worth a play session for you to check back into Halls of Torment. They had a large content drop today (new level, two new classes, new abilities). Good stuff. You are the one who originally turned me onto that game.

It doesn't even kill the little ones, he says, as he NEVER upgrades damage lol

I hope they'll add co-op in the full release.

I don't think it's actually him, but in some lines the driller's VA sounds like the dude that voiced Kill-Face on the cartoon "Frisky Dingo"... ...MAN, I really MISS that show~

Two seconds into every run “I’m gone die.” “Easiest game of my life!” 😂

Seeing how bad he was at picking buffs was so gd triggering I spent this entire video screaming at my phone.

"what's mining speed gonna do" meanwhile sits around waiting for enemies to die while standing 10 ft from mineable resources. I don't think I've ever ended a level without at least 30-100 of each.

Rock and Stone brother

I hope he comes back and continues to play. It's really fun watching him play it.

Knowing how much he loved vampire survivors. He would love this game when he actually figures it out. Plus how much he loved garlic being the driller is perfect t for him and its an awesome class. Watching him level that stupid pistol the whole time made me wanna yell

dude if you upgrade that first shotgun you can have it fire 4 shots per reload

This video CHANGED MY LIFE

Seeing him picking up max hp and armor kinda look like his trolling, even skip mining and picking up exp.

This game: Big Dig Damage

I don’t get Asmon’s hate on Gunner, his hmg is very powerful imo. It’s one of the strongest wave clearing guns (I’m at hazard 3 rn and haven’t unlocked every single gun, but still), and you don’t have to mine and attack at the same time, just mine while it’s reloading and then turn around and wipe every single enemy coming at you. I feel like first Gunner class is the best crit scaling character, due to sheer amount of bullets he fires. Also, turrets and lmgs, that fire in 4 different ways are pretty nice for him, as his passive procs every other hundred shots fired

Missing out on a ton of xp and power in the shop by not mining. Mining is xp, mining is life, rock and stone

when you rock and stone, you're never alone

Keep posting this game please I love watching you play it

i wonder what goes through his head when he choses a common 10 hp max upgrade over all weapons +20% damage. He never actually thinks about what his loudout is and what their synergies are with upgrades like beam dmg, elemental dmg, etc. I think he likes the scout more because that class's upgrades don't require reading.

This looks HARDER than Diablo IV

Lmao “why would I want more mining speed?” I dunno. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️
