I've put about 23 hours into the game and seen multiple screens telling me to come back when early access is further along, so I think I have a pretty good grasp of the game now.
- Comes out the gate feeling EXTREMELY hades-1-like but hides a number of fun new ideas in its depths
- It is, in many ways, an iterative sequel, but I think it eventually truly earns its "2" through some interesting changes to the structure of the game
- That said, it's still an action-roguelike through and through, and I don't think it's going to win over anyone who wasn't sold on the first game
- If you're on the fence about whether to wait for a full release, I'd wait solely because there are a LOT of placeholder character portraits right now and I think it'll be more fun to experience a lot of this stuff when it's done. But what's here right now is a pretty substantial gameplay experience. You could play this for quite a long time, I think.
