  I only played RoR 2 and i never understood RoR 1.

  Maybe you’re right - two different audiences?

  I really did not enjoy Risk of Rain, RoR2 however I played many hours of.

  I played RoR1 first, years before 2 was even announced. I still like RoR2. It’s been better and worse with different updates, it’s definitely a lot worse with the DLC and much better with certain mods. Both games are kinda broken and unpolished under the surface, they’re really not so different

  Totally agree - RoR is one of my all time favorites. Its strategic elegance and style just didn’t survive the translation to 3D

  I played the first one when it came out and I still liked the second.

  I played RoR1 a couple years after release, RoR2 on release, and RoRR on release. I still like 1/Returns better than 2, but I like 2 as well. They are honestly pretty similar in gameplay, but I think the 2d style leaves a lot more room for boss moveset creativity.

  I haven’t played RoR1, but loved RoR2, but I also tend to prefer 3d games over 2d. I haven’t played since the latest xpac, so I don’t know if they fixed the things they broke or not.
