    Really solid review~!!!
    It does seem a little....odd to include what is most likely the final boss though in your footage???? Reviews should not include spoilers like that (even if, yes, it could be assumed we would likely fight them one way or another. Still spoilers.)

      I agree! It helps a lot bringing that subjectivity. So many reviews try to act like everything they say is objective, but his style let's you understand what he's basing his opinions on. E.g. "This increased my personal enjoyment".

      @@Martini96112 I only directly stated what the spoiler was because it says the boss's name during the animation sequence. Also, The One Who Waits is a pretty critical character to the game, so most people who play or know the game would recognize it's a spoiler. Sorry about that, though!

    Hoping they add more content for this one, seems like a 12-15 hrs playthrough and done.
    Both roguelites and management games aim to be much longer than that usually, due to the nature of their progression/satisfaction.

    If the devs treat this game dead cells, adding new things couple times a year, this would be high up on the list of best indie games right beside deadcells. imagine for the combat section they add new weapons, powers, enemies, levels, and omg new mechanics and revamping/upgrading the dungeon part. Also for the management section new stuff to build,more stuff to do,more items and collectables and maybe a couple new areas to visit and of course new mechanics.
    If they do that this game will be GOAT. The dream rogue like + really good management/ simulation game you can totally make a seperate game for but you put it all in one. Hell we’d even buy the dlcs if the chose to put it all there.
    That why deadcells will forever be legendary they took a toptier rogue like dungeon crawler and kept adding to it for so many years .deadcells currently is the goat of indie. IMO hades would be better if it got the same treatment or even a DLC which we all want to give them money for. This game is good but it could be godlike.
    I truly hope the devs go this route, we want to make them rich!

    Is this game created by the same person who made Binding of Isaac, or is the game otherwise related to it? I heard of this game but assumed it was another update or anthology to Isaac. It can be confusing, since they have similar themes, game design, and later Isaac games also used Lamb terminology.

    • @Segrato
      @Segrato Před rokem +3

      No, and the only relation to Isaac is that both games are rogue-lites.
