Goddamnit, my girlfriend has started playing Vampire Survivors again, which means I've started playing Vampire Survivors again. We mostly just played it coop together so I never went deeper than basic builds and the first forest map. Now I'm trying to unlock stuff and figuring out what combos together. Sure, it's all up on a wiki somewhere but what's the point of playing if you're just going to read about it?

    The point of games is to play them, not just finish them! People who minmax and look up the answers are just ruining it for themselves.

    I went ham on that game unlocking everything, and now I love "survivor-likes" there's a few on the Play store I enjoy.

    It's just an addicting gameplay loop

    I realised you just have to unlock everything even if you have preferred characters so you can further improve your build. It's just fun running the numbers and becoming unstoppable.

    I picked one up called Vital Shell where you control a gundam and it looks like a Dreamcast/PS1 game. I also figure they'll be good games for my kids to start with because they just have to talk around and not get hit.
