They kinda butchered the original game and here I was wondering why I basically never heard about this game until way after it released...

I got a slight hint that I wasn't going to like this game when I realized they soft-forced every run to be a blessing-run, which is a mechanic I totally avoided in the original game. Nevertheless, I opted for benefit of the doubt early on...
You also get the feeling that it might be a sloppy redo of the original game when you first notice that some of the original game's mechanics feel broken because of the non-top-down view.
The game menus feel unresponsive somehow? Character jump height is off in some situations that make it feel ever so frustrating for a game that isn't really supposed to be a platformer?

Certain elevator escape sequences, while intentionally chaotic, can turn into nightmare situations pretty quickly depending on the randomized spawn group. This ends up feeling like you're accidentally being punished because of someone's oversight instead of feeling like you just didn't play well.
You can't drop items or sell items, so if you accidentally pick up something after a boss-fight, you're stuck with it even if the item itself appears to be bugged. (Bumbullets seems to keep your gun from firing in some situations, so that usually ends a run for me)

I picked up a copy of this game when it was on sale because I was sure it would probably be a pretty solid game and definitely worth a couple of dollars, but it wasn't and it's not.
In my humble opinion, just pretend this one doesn't exist and stick to the OG which is a more fine-tuned and fair balance of punishing/fun.

idk what kind of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ spastic you'd have to be to understand what is happening on your screen half the time, let alone enjoy the game. instant refund, this is coming from someone who sunk hundreds of hours into Enter.

I really loved Enter the Gungeon and probably am favoring it much more than Exit the Gungeon. But I figured why not try this game and I can't quite say I'm a fan. Mainly because as things are moving up and around you, it makes tracking where everything is a lot more difficult. Moreso than where you had more of a chance by being in control of situations in more of a fixed environment.

A lot of the charm is retained in this, while I had expected an overhaul. The only things that really changed are just the gameplay and some of the visuals. That's it.

I don't really feel like the change of gameplay offers any distinct advantages but more challenges except those challenges are more obnoxiously applied.

In this case, I'd rather enter and stay in the gungeon than exit it.
