honestly the more you play the more awful everything feels.

cant find the legendary youre looking for? thats cause the game's RNG gave you the *same* legendaries like 9 times in a row.

have a tanky build? everything and anything can perma stunlock you until random stuff kills you. bonus points: you have large dodge and damage reduction but your dodge fails to trigger on any of the 19 hit combo youre about to receive and your damage reduction is just good enough to absorb all 19 hits before dying.

lots of synergies and relic options to choose from but most of the time youre so heavily limited by the RNG that you wont ever complete anything anyway.

stat systems and talent systems that feel super duper boring and bland. some stuff feels required (especially if you have legendaries focusing on specific elements / skills) but also heavily requires getting good relics and relic synergy to fully function. this leaves you with half a build at all times; and hardly ever feeling like you can competently complete a build during a run.

enemy placement and enemy movement is a massive chore to deal with; especially into later levels. if you dont get the synergies / relics you need to just offscreen / oneshot everything--youre going to be in for a terrible time. auto homing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥; "elite" mobs with auto homing / auto spawning damage auras and spikes and bombs and abilities.

it becomes extremely unfun to engage with; and the balance is somewhere between 'you easily oneshot and coast through all levels and bosses' and 'you didnt get what you need and the entire run feels awful and you can barely keep up with the damage needed to advance through levels.'

THERE IS POTENTIAL but it honestly feels like these devs are never, ever going to hit that potential. i hope they do! but it really doesnt seem like this game is ever going to make it.

Amazing game, saw it at comic con and was in love instantly. Five stars.

Great and novel set of systems that really work well together. The combination of Diablo with a metroidvania roguelike could definitely be a mess but this has got some real depth to it and all those systems just combine in a great way.

Only criticism I have is some of the stun locking from bosses is a bit cheap in my opinion and could use tuning, getting just randomly stunlocked for like 5 seconds and wiped after a 50 minute run does not feel remotely satisfying. Also they really need to get someone to review the dialogue, as there are a ton of grammatical and spelling errors.
