Rogue Legacy 2

[Music] i'm going to tell you a story long long ago young markiplier made a video on a channel well i didn't make the video okay pausing the story story went wrong i didn't make the video the video was made by a channel called hot pepper gaming this was back in 2013 2014 2013 one of those years i ate a habanero pepper and reviewed a game called rogue legacy that led me to this moment right here there's a few steps i missed in between in that story but that led me to this moment right here playing rogue legacy 2. also this video is brought to you by epic games if you want to try this game for yourself click the link in the description and use code markiplier on the epic game store for all your purchases that support me check out the regular free games that the epic game store has through the link in the description as well all right what here we go i'm not going to waste any time so this is rogue legacy 2. it is a roguelike game the time has passed and they have not returned estuaries have decayed the kingdom demands deliverance sign the contract and your children self-succeed you the whole concept is you go into a dungeon and you die but your children shall inherit what you left behind and this game uh it improves on a lot of the features of rogue legacy one it's supposed to like when i played it it was just as like the controls were just as crisp and it was just as fun to play but there wasn't a lot of features and there were low levels but that was like pretty much like a year ago at this point so they've had a lot of updates since then oh yeah who used the thumbstick like a chump okay uh i'm gonna speed through this this is just all tutorial stuff don't even worry about it don't worry about don't put this in don't put any of this in put some of it in if it's interesting ah bam secret shush go away mana mana that's different from rogue legacy one before i don't think you could recover mana with hitting anybody without like a specific talent no okay now we are in the game you welcome back thanks for joining me this is rogue legacy so the entire dungeon is randomly generated every time you go through unless you lock it down which is like a different mechanic where you can compromise some money to be able to play through the same thing it's good for practicing but it's for chumps the important thing to remember is that if i die it's not because i'm bad that's by the design of the game it's meant to be difficult because you're meant to slowly improve not that this is difficult whoa okay there's some things that i'm not 100 familiar with oh god oh god no thank you i got to use my magic more whoa yeah fight y'all because it's good to do that so the whole objective is to go through these dungeons try not to get hurt at all ooh cornucopia cost 25 resolve she's relevant to reveal his power be generous to others you know you have more than you know incandescent telescope light access warning we see you you see us interesting a primer on relics and resolve relics are artifacts that grant powerful abilities to the user but require resolve to wield those with a strong resolve haven't shown no physical or mental deficits in combat conversely those with weak resolve less than 100 have displaying signs of ailing health there also seems to be a correlation between the amount of armor a soldier wore in their resolve those with more armor were less confident in their abilities thus had weaker wills and resolve perhaps we should send our soldiers out naked perhaps we shouldn't okay i like food i'll go with that cornucopia health drops restore an additional eight percent okay but i lose reselve i don't know what that means oh i think i see the percentage of it yeah some enemies can pierce through walls some cannot oh god i forgot oh geez i did rogue legacy i thought if i drop attack oh that's intentional i wanted to get rid of it because i'm an no no what just like that so as i go through this dungeon i'm picking up gold and i'm picking up food to replace no and i'm picking up food to replenish my health but it doesn't come that often what is that twin freon's reward all poisons have their uses some more than others an honorable i don't know that sounds good i already have that i'll do this one because it seems cool hey what is it opening chest for sore health that's kind of dope oh this i know this oh okay i remember that one leather weapon okay yeah and you it's like also got rpg elements to it so you can get upgrades and stuff but you can only get them after you die uh what is how do i yeah so there's a chest at the end of this but i don't know if that's worth it i'm not really too interested in the chest right off the bat oh god oh god oh my god no not today oh it's it's just so dicey sometimes oh it's so dicey on like what will the only reason i want this is because there might be some goodies there in these uh literally that's the only reason and i lost most of it on the spikes because i'm an idiot whatever somewhere around here there's a boss there's also certain enemies that can't uh drop down from ledges you'll just have to remember that easy easy easy easy so as i say it's randomly generated but there's like randomly generated template rooms so some of the rooms are always the same not in the same position though that's really the determining factor oh what is that whoa oh i think i know what this is it's like some kind of a challenge another soul has come to roost you seeking my power right well let me tell you something kiddo i see all beyond lies beyond ego beyond time i see the apex of emotions where truth is laid bare and you know what i see when i look at you i see a scared little soul with snot coming out your nose and poop coming out your butt you know if you're this ugly on the outside and let's what's it look like on the ins huh interesting how many people you got in there kiddo well i don't know what game you're playing but i won't stop you from taking my challenge word of advice i have the power of empathy use it about the trials listen to those who have fallen before you learn from their failures and maybe just maybe you'll have a fighting chance yeah this is like some custom challenge that if i fail i die but i think i can do it i think i can do it i can't oh yes i can that's handy okay lost again everything i've every path i've taken is wrong he gives you only two choices always hides a third ah [Laughter] that's fun whoa been down here for hours not sure what to do obstacles or just hidden opportunities what the elder oh could i use yeah i can easy peasy easy peasy easy peasy my elders are a bunch of babies not too afraid to go forward with what's right in front of you all right i'm a little worried oh my god oh my god oh my god oh okay okay okay so far so good what's my elders gotta say about this there's a nightmare ahead the elders said they are powerful nihilistic thoughts that have grown and festered violence begets violence if i attack or cast oh i know what that is yeah so i'm not gonna do it but if i attack at all it's uh not happy about me that's what happens no no that's why i have dash weee one can accomplish with kindness wouldn't one cannot with force if i can reach the nightmare ahead of me perhaps i can calm it down maybe i can hey good hey i don't need it because i'm so good oh god oh i for oh no oh god okay okay okay okay hang on well okay oh wait i can calm them down i forgot that's a whole thing yeah there we go okay i cannot calm this one down okay ah damn it damn it oh my god okay what if i just seriously what if i oh oh ow ow okay i'm smarter than you okay yep turn off hey ow god damn it i can't i'm so close okay am i near oh he's mad okay okay okay ah shoot he's easy easy easy easy easy easy easy easy did i do it i did it my ancestors can get wrecked okay emotional connection with your enemy i know you'll who you'll be dustin with you should know power of empathy well that's handy rp to read memories and calm nightmares that's good that's good okay only slightly detrimental i miss him there hello who are you hi another bearer of aesop's tome a word of caution traveler be mindful what you learn the truth can be misleading okay all right see you wait there's a red uh red thing here oh i can finally read these how many years has it been since we first came down here fifty a hundred a thousand my patience is at its end these scholars they jump from one fancy to the next like they're the belle of the ball just singing and dancing and never finishing anything they started they've taken our gifts of life and have been and abused it this lackadaisical behavior must be brought to an end they must be punished only through the pain can we describe discovery i brought this off before but the others never agree with me they never do i'll bring it up once more at the meeting but this time it will be different i can feel it everyone's patience has a limit and something tells me the 13th time will be the charm oh i'm sure i think this just goes to another area ah requires aether's wings yeah i i don't i don't have those so there's different uh biomes in the game and they all have unique enemies and all the yada yada but i'm not ready to go there because the enemies can get tougher a lot tougher it does behoove you to try to discover everything that's around like going every nook and cranny nice almost full health that's not common wish that did more damage oh my god what is that that's a higher level something no thank you oh my god no whoo missed by that much whoo nope not the day oh no molten oh no there you go there you go i don't know what that is but i like it oh my god you too huh you too what does this do oh it's a shield okay there's also different classes of characters that you can play but i'll get to that when i die which will be never because i'm good ah come on god i wish i had midair dash boy that'd be handy hey oh yeah ah here it is wubbum so this is the balls now am i ready for the boss probably not thrown oh they're sealed that's right ah oh oh i need midair dash i can't even fight the boss now the thing is i don't really know if i'm gonna get emitter dash that's a teleporter oh is this another channel ah interesting sweet child the anunnak of the shawl okay power of momentum all right another heirloom what do we have oh i'm dumb right into the goop mm-hmm dash this is how you get it okay this is what i wanted okay thank you very good very good oh god oh god oh god oh god i see i see oh this ain't good yeah sometimes you whoa yeah yeah easy that was just luck okay oh my god i should have been better about that what am i doing here i see uh-huh okay easy easy easy easy like nothing like it weren't nothing so the one thing i could say about this game for certain is that like when it comes to just like fun it's great but the fact that there's pretty much near infinite replayability makes it just just a fantastic game i love it it's so fun i can dash in the air now all right well now i can go to the boss i don't know full health and i'm the just because i get here does not mean that i'm going to be able to get it uh because you i mean i just you know it is what it is you'll see what i mean in just a moment this boss is um the bosses in this game are they don't joke around very much and i don't really remember exactly what he does oh god here he goes no that's easy what is it what are you doing that's what you do oh god not today and they have so much health that's new no it's not new no definitely oh my god yeah without any way to get health back it uh makes it pretty whoa oh ah right into it oh there i go and that's it and that's my journey but i shouldn't be embarrassed about that and i'm not i'm not embarrassed because my heirs are here so this is where the rest of the game really comes in if you're playing this game and you're using code markiplier through the link in the description below then uh you just because you die doesn't mean that you start over from the beginning you pick a new heir who has different unique traits you have a home literally universal health stare healthy populous working matrix don't give gold modifiers okay triage for all your kingdom has granted its people access to healthcare and services and amenities certain traits now give gold bonuses and then you upgrade your house to unlock new classes which are randomly picked there's a bunch of classes you can get a random selection in your heirs basically your children and i unlocked no i don't want to switch to the ranger class i'm good thank you okay blacksmith yes smithery is open now i can pay for that enchantress sure uh sage totem gain permanent bonuses for dying okay dummy i don't need that fashion chamber max weight capacity how about just vitality up good max hp valkyries barbarians and mages well why not beards are mandatory yeah okay i also didn't use my shield at all i think that does probably get rid of all damage but i don't know architect nah can't afford it what can i afford this i've upgraded i didn't leave any money left to buy anything else hi thanks for helping i ain't got a lot to my name but i promise your investment in this year black smitheree will pay off okay blueprints i didn't leave any money i didn't leave any money for it god damn it i would love that but i can't hi behold i am the sage totem you're not bound to me all your knowledge will be housed within my spirit would the game mastery in one profession is to gain advantage and all what we share knowledge makes us strong that is all are you still here i'm about to die a little better uh okay hi hello hello my name is lady quinn and i'm excited to meet you i'm a living dummy and i know everything about weapons and stuff sorry for the starter i'm feeling shy okay well nice talking to you nice talking to you too thank you very much i gotta go goodbye hello one must pay the toll you can't take any gold with you you must get rid of all your gold going into this thing so you have to spend it each time you go in so now i'm back in the same castle same biome different layout the golden doors won't open until all the estuaries have gathered that is all that lies between us and freedom if i can open it i can fix everything i can save everyone oh hi the throne room doors are currently sealed thanks oh god damn you oh my god damn you you are really messing up my steez huh that was not worth it i should have just ran away i was hoping to get some money or something oh hey buddy oh what i forgot that i have new spells with this guy what is that what is that hey maybe i should shield oh oh nice hey that was a good bit of gold oh i'm a gambler that's right i'm a compulsive gambler it's something that probably to do with what what is puzzle challenge time limit 15 oh god all right uh let's go where's this going oh oh no no thank you ah that's not good all right let's try this one oh god damn it oh ah come on oh come on this run is not going well for me that's why i gotta get better about using the shield which i never do [Music] oh ah meant to use my shield but i did not that's why i gotta get better about using the shield which i never do oh hell yeah okay at least i got some gold this run so that when i eventually die and fall flat on my face it won't be so embarrassing for my heirs why didn't you leave us anything father i was terrible at my job all right this is interesting oh oh my god oh whoa what the hell was that oh oh i'm falling i i fell i i fell far haha 99 oh hi increase match hp by 35 i need this more than i need that unfortunately i would but that's 69 damage i would be one hit away from death and that's not where i would like to be oh what is that high gain a blessing of wisdom okay i don't know the you can damage yourself we'll always oh my spell got replaced eyes not good i think it's a i think it's a grenade it's like a bomb oh let's test it out oh oh that's cool okay i'm into that oh hello now i can take this excellent thank you ah man not a lot of drops in this run not much chicken sure would love some chicken oh no no man oh god ah 71 oh i thought you were dead damn the crit effect it really made it seem like you were dead oh chicken i've not been getting any food i'm wasting away please hello i am an estuary hand chosen of our king we are the pinnacle of royalty and by the king's decree all others shall stand below us yet here i said rotting in the halls after my fellow estuaries banished me from the table me of all table from the people me the table meet people [Music] oh god i keep thinking one's dead and it's not uh i'm in trouble i do not have nearly enough health for this what was in here why is it still a question mark what i already got it oh god okay okay oh god don't that would not have been okay ah i'm by the skin of my teeth here but i got a lot of money so that'll do for my eventual death and resurrection is handy you're not gonna do anything just gonna stand there and take it all right fine by me well that looks dangerous um let me go up here real quick and see because if i mess up once and get by that i'm i'm kind of dunzo oh my god i thought i didn't need to press jump but oh my god oh god not you you look dangerous get hit get hit get hit okay what's above me what's above me okay we're fine it's fine hi oh god for a second there i was like i knew it wasn't gonna fall down the ledge but i just have this weird feeling gonna do three three three all right whatever oh god oh god oh god oh god oh god oh god i'm gonna die okay there's a path down right below there i'm gonna take that one uh okay oh hi oh what are you gonna do what are you gonna do don't do it okay that yeah okay oh god oh god okay that's different oh my god oh my god oh my god don't don't don't don't don't [Applause] do they never go away oh my god yeah excel [Applause] what's happening no oh no oh no i shouldn't have gone up ah i don't even get ah no oh ah oh fungal spread i'll be a mage but death is part of the experience this game is super fun i just i really really truly enjoy this game a lot it is just a delight oh i have even less health okay i got that scholar helm vitality of leather u i might as well just get the leather stuff because i there's some like leather unity i don't really know what it means lifesteal room there we go now i can get health back from hitting enemies now the only problem is i don't know how this guy works at all i know he's got like spell okay spells okay fungal spread oh weird oh that's a fun one whoa okay oh all right this could be fun i might be into this okay i'm back hey there's a chicken god if only i could get that before so you're next in line to sign the contract everything in the name of duty i presume never stop to think of what you might be losing well if you're looking for the treasure you'll have to find the king's children first can't get through the door otherwise i've tried okay thanks buddy real helpful sure you're not secretly a bad guy hey ho ho damn he exploded this might be cool yeah hey okay so it explodes on the dot so it travels through enemies and then explodes where the dot hits it goes through walls that's very handy very handy okay and i've never really tried mage before but it's not bad get out magic the only problem is i have no health i have literally 95 health which means that i get to take like one shot and then i'm dead yeah i don't know why i'm not using that more i am a mage i should use my spells oh ah wrong way oh whoa what i aimed it i didn't know i could do that buy them give me your mana bongos wardrobe signal to the people to take arms there will be no quarter for those who hide lotus stem longer you than you longer than me the lotus flower will outlive us all that sounds fun like black lotus block up to two attacks consumes 100 that's a change of pace oh you stupid thing huh oh god oh my god i get one hp from killing enemies i got wasn't that i thought i thought i just got didn't i just get like i thought i just got food no no no no no stop stop stop stop spinning stop spinning oh god no the stupid from behind god damn it please don't do this to me i don't want to lose this soon oh there's just some nuances to the class that i'm not 100 used to yet come on food [Music] food no hey now well that was embarrassing i'll do mage again i was enjoying that and i will do better this time because i won't have as little health as i did that time i didn't get any upgrades so i gotta i've barely got anything i can't afford oh there we go all right let's go thanks ten percent of my gold stays in the safe so i get a little a little bit extra going on and i can upgrade that over time but i just wanted to get back in quickly because i'm gonna i'm gonna do a lot better than i did before okay my spells don't forget about the spells oh that's a fun one oh it is difficult to aim right that that's above me okay you get different spells each time too nice fart balls i did like that yes please thank you i'll take it yeah the tesla thing was nice and all i can't get oh yes i can god please no not like this i don't like this come on bouncing like that it's like the vhs thing hidden at the exact corner of the screen jerk bam oh my god wait what did i have what i think i had like a relic or something save me oh all the gold i just want to get back to the boss again letters old but carefully preserved jay the rumors are true the golden doors are real and i found them the door will only open when all the estuaries have gathered together i know it sounds crazy but i have a plan to save everyone but i can't do it myself i need your help and some people i can trust that's in short splay around here there's no one to trust i'm good at this game i'm good at this game i'm trying to prove that i'm good at this game can i not get over there oh here oh oh god i'm getting real try hard about it you guys know how i am about doing this and talking doing things that actually take some effort and talking it's uh they're conflicting skills i don't have that much in my brain to be able to do both oh my god why your fire is puny hey nice leather chest thank you so like the game is just like a a constant climb of progression and i do enjoy that a lot it's it makes it very interesting ooh body buffet lotus petal if you're not picky everything could be delicious okay if he did enemies aye that'll help me out i'm not at the boss but it'll help me out for here oh interesting yes more health please oh no this is not where i want to be nope i'm out of here ah here it is get my bonus pity gold all right let's do this okay all right here we go let's try this again okay we got this probably not though okay oh god not i didn't expect that one to be that don't do it you would never you wouldn't hit a guy with glasses would you oh god oh my god well i for some reason i thought i had double jump for a moment there which uh nah i don't turns out wow try me come at me bro miss me don't know if that does anything better you have so much health it's not fair okay okay okay oh god i might get hit by this nope not today oh yeah oh okay now that i've got a read on his okay he's got phase two of course because they always do not today whoa hey whoa what is that about whoa hey whoa okay guys yeah please what is it oh okay couldn't tell what he was doing at first whoop okay oh god oh god oh my god oh god get up oh frick if i lose now i'm gonna be real oh god oh not today get farted on okay oh god don't hit me hey yes yes take that you eat my dust all right so if you thought that was the end of the game but it's not that is the first boss of six and you have to beat them all not sequentially thankfully because i think once you beat it in a run that boss is beat for good in the castle but the mage is shockingly pretty good hey what's up thank you for putting sure islamic to the rest regardless of what he's done he deserved a warrior's death sure let's go with that all right so that is all the time i have for this game i love this game it's something that i've played a ton at least the first one and this one is just like it's got a lot more refinement than the first game and there's a lot to enjoy about it it's still technically in early access but there's so much more content than there was when i first played which was almost as much as there was in the first uh rogue legacy now i'd be willing to bet there's probably more content and more replayability in there than the first rogue legacy link is in the description thank you everybody so much for watching remember to use my code markiplier on the epic game store on any purchase not even just this game and thank you all so much for watching and as always i will see you in the next video bye-bye [Music]
