After 800 hours and completing all achievements for this game, I feel like it's time to write this. You will hate this game, and then come to love it, and then hate it again, and then go back to loving it. You will go through every single emotion, every stage of grief, the highest of highs and lowest of lows playing this game, struggling at this game, and trying to improve at this game until it etches itself into you like the microplastics in your blood stream. And once it gets it grip on you, it won't let go. You're gonna keep coming back to this game. It won't matter why. Maybe you meshed well with similar games that allow for different play styles. Maybe you're too stubborn to let the game knock you down after losing, maybe it's because games have gotten too stale and that this is your last reliable source of pure, no nonsense gameplay. Even when you think you're done, you're not. Maybe there's a new update and you wanna take a gamble at how broken it is. Maybe one of your friends suggest you two play a run together like two crabs in a giant bucket. Maybe a mod releases that just let's you PLAY AS A TANK. I keep coming back to this game, more so than any other game I've played in my entire existence. Very rarely can a game like this feel as fresh on run 1 as it would on run 1000. I'm writing this after completing a monsoon Artificer run when most of my runs have been on rainstorm. That run in particular felt like one of the hardest challenges I've ever had to do, and vastly different from any of my autopilot huntress runs. I hate this game, and I love this game. I hate how this game has consumed me since I first game it an honest attempt at 4 years ago, yet I love how games like this can just exist. It's a game that will ruin slower paced games for you. It's a game with the potential of forming the strongest of bonds with other people. It's a game that will teach you how to get good at games. It's a game with a soundtrack made by someone who thinks he's the shit and has the evidence to back that up. It's a game that goes on sale for $8 that I put 800 hours in without even touching eclipse and having barely dipped my toes into modding. It's a game. Not a sad imitation of a movie Not a glorified storefront or slot machine (although gambling is still present) It's just pure, unrestricted fun

How to destroy a player base in 5 steps: 1. Big company buys game 2. Release DLC out of nowhere that is buggy as hell 2.5 Un-Ironically make the DLC about taking the player's money 3. Force an update that breaks the game 4. Do not allow a way to revert updates 5. Suck off the CEO and say it was a great idea
