Worth buying for solo?
Never played the first game, reviews seem great but how is it for singleplayer?And how much content/replayability is there?

Yes, very much so.
Despite the game getting nominated (I forget if it won or not) for the "better with friends" award, this game has TONS of single player content, arguably better than multiplayer.
Absolutely worth buying just for solo play, multiplayer is just the icing on the already delicious cake.
Replayability is infinite, it's kinda the point of rougelikes.
No need for the first game to enjoy it as its own thing, I haven't played ROR1 either

single player is pretty good for character unlocking, but if you want to go for fun than you should grab a friend and play with them.

about 90% of my 200 hours has been spent in singleplayer, out of choice, and ive yet to try modded and get my monsoon clear on a few characters. that should be a good enough show of how good this game is offline.

it definitely isn't one of those games built around online play, if that's what you were wondering. to this game, multiplayer is more of a little bonus rather than a carrying factor. its executed fairly well, and is there for the people who want it. i personally didnt, and safe to say ive had my money's worth multiple times over by now despite that.

I love this game I own it on ps4, physical copy for my switch, and now on PC lots of replayability. plus theres fun mods too

I've mostly been playing it solo. The more you play, the more ♥♥♥♥ unlocks which changes how you play the game. And then there are different characters with different skill sets.

Its an arcade roguelike game. Can never go wrong!!! I play solo only cuz i have no friends. It can be hectic at times but practice is all it takes really :)

People might disagree, but the game is made for and balanced around solo. Multiplayer was an afterthought that got tacked on later, despite how it's advertised.

If you are a social someone who likes others to see how powerful you are in a game then its much better multiplayer.
