I've held off on Dead Cells for a long time, assuming that it's something I'll really enjoy.
Now that I finally got around to it, turns out it does basically nothing for me.
It's fun to play, it's snappy and some of the weapons are very satisfying... but the progression feels like a crawl, I'm already sick of running through the same areas which the proc gen does basically nothing to keep fresh and even when I feel like I've got a great build the bosses are like tanks.
Also, the DLC is in the game but you can't access it. So multiple times I've wasted time going one way only for it to tell me "You need this DLC" which results in wasted time and missed progression.
Also also, it has the same thing of all the indie games of this time where there's a million crossover items that I hate and just rips me out of the experience. Please let me turn it off. Thank you.
