    I didn’t care for the game much at launch and bounced off it, great idea but none of the systems were very developed. Combat specifically was very watered down.

    Is it worth coming back now that it’s had a bunch of updates?

      Combat is a bit better after the first major patch, it added heavy attacks and some new weapon types. But if you didn’t enjoy the attack-dodge roll kind of gameplay, it doesn’t fundamentally change that.

      But the updates did add a lot of little stuff all around the game

        I came into it off the high of Hades so it felt pretty empty to me.

            Calling hades trash compared to anything is pretty extreme.

            From what I’ve played hades has a better combat system, cult has a more direct narrative and more non combat stuff to do.

            They are both great games, but do have fairly different focuses

      Also want to know. I saw there was hype for the sex update but like who gives af if it doesn’t improve gameplay. It was fun for the first play through, but it’s gotta be something good to come back to.
