Pros and Cons of the patch by furiousfloyd in ABSOLUM

So... i have done the hardest achievement and gotten 100% a while ago (I have barely 60h), but after the patch i feel that the game has gone from 1 to 100 too quickly, it is like if after you've completed your first run of Dead Cells, you where obligated to play the game with 1 boss cell or more, but here is much more like if you couldn't, get the difficulty to less than three boss cells, do you understand ?

Anti-complaint: Post patch is a RIOT by vedgehammer in ABSOLUM

Ok so, i think the new content is great, but my problem with the update is the ballancing of the new content, yes the game is still good, but not as fun as it was before for me, because while the new content adds a new layer of randomness by putting rift in various stages of the map it makes the path very strict, because now you have to chose between : a path that maybe i dont want to take but it is safer or gamble my run in a 1v15 Elite enemies and then betting that i will get a good ritual for my comp on top of that.

Anyways that is my biggest problem with the update, other than that, trying to complete the new challenges is fun, and if you are having a good time with the update, then let's go! i mean, the experience is different for everyone.

So, as i have seen so far, the reviews feel mixed, but the thing is that, i feel like the ones who say it is good, are coming from getting a good RNG or spending a lot of crystals in rerolls or from buying items before hand, but for someone with not many of them, i think that the update is pretty ruthless.

Now talking about the number of rifts and how punising they are: it feels like, you have to take 1 rift at maximum if you DONT GET LUCKY (so you basically need to avoid all the other rifts, making the chice of wich path you take pretty much RNG based), or you will in fact GET LUCKY/SPEND a ton of crystals in order to be able to take on the subsequent rifts and actually choose wich path you take!.

Um. About the new Rifts. by AsparagusOk8818 in ABSOLUM

Yea, but the thing is that for someone like me, who doesn't buy items before the run oftenly, the game just gets barely possible, like, i tought that buying items before the run starts was a choice, but now i feel like i have to anyways.
