  I’m still worried about Hopoo not being at the helm on this one, as I trust Gearbox about as far as I can throw them, and since they’re a whole ass company of people with a building… not very far.

  I did love Risk of Rain 1 a shit ton though, so I hope this turns out well!

    Hopoo are helming Risk of Rain Returns. Gearbox will handle all future projects but this is the last Hopoo project in the franchise.

      Thank you friend, that makes me feel a ton better! Well better about Risk of Rain Returns, still worried about future Risk of Rain 2 though.

  I’d love for some additional ror2 content instead

    Gearbox bought the risk of rain franchise a while back so I would assume they have plans for it.

      Embracer bought Gearbox, and recently laid off tons of people. Don’t be to hopeful.

  Risky Rain with, presumably, working netcode and (hopefully) doesn’t crash after a few mins in multiplayer? Sign me the heck up.

  Hoping the design for this one is a bit. . . tighter? As much as I liked the original, runs usually turned into hopping around trying to not get hit while you hope for enough space to actually use your abilities; or if you had busted items you just about instakill everything. I never found much of an in-between and felt that the sequel handled playing from behind situations much better.

    Well they’ve already fixed my biggest issue with the original, you no longer need to kill every enemy to go to the next stage. Everything else is icing on the cake.

    We’ll see how they handle being able to avoid damage but I doubt it will be too different from the original.
