    It's definitely on my radar but I'll wait until after launch to measure it up.

    Looks fun! I was just complaining that it seems harder and harder to find co-op multiplayer games that aren't PvP "co-op" and BAM here's one. Not an MMO, but at least something I can play with a few friends.

    MMOs, Diablo-likes, looters, and Musuo games are just about the only co op multiplayer games left to us these days.


    And they all have one thing in common - the grind loop.

    indentured corporate slavery, so Amazon clearly hasn't been broken up in the future...

    It's on my Steam wishlist. I may also subscribe back to Game Pass at some point and try it out when it comes to PC. I've been following this one from a distance for a while now. It looks interesting and is so refreshing to see a more classic style ARPG that isn't fantasy based.
    Even traditional high fantasy ARPGs would be refreshing. Anything that isn't grimdark fantasy specifically would be refreshing.

    Right but does that include the PC Gamepass on Day 1?

    That's the problem, without PVP or something competitive this type of games (Looter shooters, A RPG, hack and slash) mostly die.
    Some examples
    Godfall
    Outriders
    Wolcen
    Marvel's Avengers

    Still alive game
    Destiny
    The Division
    POE (PVP is dead but at least it has something competitive)

    For single player or Co-op to play it and forget it in 2 months is fine. Nothing more
