welp, glad I never bought Risk of Rain or Risk of Rain 2 then.

Why? They are not live service games.

Despite that, I've heard from friends there's been some major changes since the sale... and they're not good.

Not live service, but an update broke a lot of stuff and people aren't too happy about it.

Oh I do play it regularly as well but I would never let a minor setback like this to gate me from one of my favourite games.

You can download old depots from Steam and even keep games from updating. Very useful if you want to try outdated mods or prevent devs like Beat Games from forcing monthly updates on you.

Not really excusing Gearbox since I like to think that I'm sane but the game is really good. They really should've released the update as a beta first.
