This is a great game that has an extreme amount of work done by the developers. They always strive to add more content (such as skiing and biking coming soon!) and quality of life until they feel like the the game is perfected. The gameplay is perfect and it is so satisfying to successfully land a hard trick while zooming down Snowy Peaks at 90kph. Overall, it is a great game and will continue to have updates for years to come.
Not as expansive as the original Descenders, but it's still in early access development. Core gameplay is quite fun. Randomly generated maps mixed in with parks. The main gameplay loop is the roguelike element of going through all the stages with increasingly harder stages. Only downside to this nature is that each run can take awhile (is saving a run partway through a thing?). The series as a whole has a sensitivity to the controls that competitors (like Ubisoft's STEEP and Rider's Republic) lack. Performance on my Steamdeck is just ok whereas I turn down some graphics settings and lock the game to 40fps. Thankfully, multiplayer stutters are basically nonexistent compared to the original descenders.
Overall I've had a pretty good time with this. You'll enjoy the new board sports more if you learn to carve instead of relying on the brake button. It sounds minor but this is key to how you really experience the "realistic" qualities they've captured so well here in the feel, especially snowboarding. Unless there are major changes as it moves through early access, I probably won't put as much time in as I did the first game. I have a bike bias (and there are very few bicycle games as good as the original) and board sports are a pretty well trod path in games, but DN succeeds in transposing its particular survival risk/reward style in this new direction. It feels a bit more like an expansion than a sequel to the original Descenders. So far, the only big differences besides the switch to boards are a new and confusingly similar career mode to the original roguelike-style survival mode where you explore the same biome for longer with checkpoints. I find the new mode gets tiring quickly because the lack of variety in biomes (especially with snowboarding) starts to lay bare the fact that the procedural generation isn't noticeably improved from the first game. It's still totally serviceable, just kinda boring. There really aren't any new mechanics to be found outside of this mode either, it's all very copy/pasted from the first game. Another big downside to board sports vs bikes is that you can't really do slower skill/balance content like some of the obstacle courses and parks in the first game, which were an awesome contrast to the high speed stuff. Despite those gripes I'm happy to support the devs with this and hope they find new interesting ways to mutate the gameplay from the original into something more distinct. The concept in general is still brilliant and has tons of room to grow.
THEY DID IT!!! FInally they made it on par with Descenders 1, there is career, 8 biomes, mountain boarding and snowboarding feel TIGHT. Difficulty is almost exactly descenders 1 but with roll and the nuance of catching an edge its a bit harder I would say. First person cam rules in this game Party system is a fun more casual way to play the career mode with friends, but still waiting for the career lobby. And on top of that there is grand tour, which is an actual game mode this time around. It's finally ready
