Two months after the disastrous Seekers of the Storm expansion, Gearbox details its Risk of Rain 2 rescue plan, and players are actually pretty excited (www.pcgamer.com)

Publishing a roadmap for bugfixing a released dlc was not on my bingo card

That's the thing--it's more than bug fixing. They're reworking a large amount of the content. I'll probably pick it back up in a few months and see how it's coming.

It feels like the dlc wasn't playtested at all, at least not on monsoon

[–] warm@kbin.earth 5 points 2 weeks ago

As with most games now, the players are the playtesters.

Gearbox is just going to keep milking RoR, it's a real shame Hopoo sold it.

I haven't tried it on monsoon, so I can't say. It's possible--testing is the thing that bigger companies seem to like to cut corners on to save money and get things out faster, so it's entirely possible. But at least it sounds like they're taking the feedback to heart, so it could still end up pretty good with some rework.
