Doesn't live up to the hype.

I like rogue-like games with some story aspects and some character building. I found this game to be super boring. Grind through each level, get to a boss, die, start over. Get past the boss, but then die, you start over. Even with the unlocks which make your character stronger, each boss fight is just such a grind and not fun. Yes, this is true for every rogue-like, but the difference here is that the grind is not fun.

There's also a lot of "luck" with the RNG drops that really determine if you're going to have a good play through or not. If you get a couple of bad drops, you're much more likely to be doomed and have a much harder run, and likely will die without making much progress.

This is very similar to Robo-Quest, but the difference is that Robo-Quest is actually fun, and it makes you want to replay the levels. Risk of Rain 2 is also another fantastic Rogue-like with tons of replayability. In Hades II, I found the levels boring and even more boring combat. Too late for a refund. Oh well.

Updated review:

Most of the game breaking bugs have been fixed
New weapons, armor, etc. are coming out relatively regularly
PSN connection is no longer required

It's a fun game and I recommend it.

I wish they had new types of content. New mission types, more enemy types, buffing of the weaker weapons and stratagems.

HUGE gamebreaking bugs that make the game completely unplayable. Early on in the game, I took over and sold a ship at "The Den" thinking it was a good way to make money not knowing it was going to completely break my game for the rest of the playthrough. Things were a little weird at first, but the further you progress, the harder it is to actually do anything. I think the crux of the issue is your "home ship" is set as the one you sold and you can't ever set a new one. So you can't trigger any quest events that require docking or landing your ship. Lots of folks with exactly the same issue. Just look it up on Reddit. If they fix this issue, I may change my review. But for now, it's completely ruined any good experience. Can't believe they would ship the game with these huge issues.

Not my style of game.

You have to do each fight multiple times, memorize the moves, then execute your counter moves perfectly. If you mess up, you die, and your progress goes back a ways. Each time you die *every* mob you killed respawns, and not only do you have to redo the fight that you died at, you have to redo ALL of the little fights in between.

Some people may find that fun, but it is agonizingly boring to me. Having to redo the exact same sequence of a game 10x to finally get it right one time is just absolute torture. I've never played any Dark Souls or similar type game and I'll know to avoid them now.

The other thing I'll say is this is *not* a multiplayer game. I purchased this to be able to play coop with my wife. Coop is listed on the store page, which is SUPER misleading. This is a single player game with multi player elements. You can have a friend "ghost" into your game and help you with a fight, but you don't progress together. It's *not* a coop game. Also, if you allow that setting to do that, random people can join your game and just gank you anytime.

If you work in a factory or something similar, doing the same repetitive task over and over and enjoy pain and suffering, then this game is for you!

Super fun! Love the game. Can't wait for more content and another playthrough!

If you're itching for more Half Life, this is definitely a great game to jump into. Fantastic gameplay, story, and nostalgia.

I've never left a match in, yet, I get the leaver penalty all the time because the game crashes so often. Give me the chance to rejoin the game I was in or realize that your stupid game crashed and not give me the penalty. Quite annoying.

Man, the writing is atrocious. I think the actors tried to do the best they could with the material. I try not to pay attention to the story and just go and complete quests, which are kinda random.

The game is pretty rough early game. It gets a little better mid game with better gear. It'll probably get better with more gear.

The combat is pretty clunky. Bad guys respawn every ~5-10m? Though, so does the gear. For the most part you can just run past everything and things will de-aggro eventually.

I'll probably play through it a little more, but honestly, just the super bad writing will probably get to me eventually and I'll give it up. Good thing I got it on sale for $9!

Super fun game. Multi-player is great.

If you like to shoot, smash, and destroy and endless number of enemies then this game is for you.

I have 3 kids, I wish there was a way for my wife and I to pause the game while playing together.
