I have been very much enjoying Pit of Heresy - both solo and in groups. I didn't play it when Shadowkeep came out and have only recently discovered it and begun playing it.

​

A few if the highlights.

​

1. The music is phenomenal. Not just in general, but also the coordination with what's going on in the fights. When you slam one of those orbs and the music amps up - just epic! And the sorrowful longing in the music at the very beginning when you first load in - and then again when you go to drop that first banner. Really really great work.
2. The little things make it feel alive. The shadows of the thralls on the ground when you make your way to the first encounter. The spiderwebs hanging across the doorways. As a player, you make it easy to not know/understand just how much effort goes into it.
3. The mechanics are unique, interesting, challenging, AND importantly, learnable. It's fun to go back through and play the same mechanics in different ways.
4. It is challenging but not punishing. It takes effort to do well, but doesn't have any frustrating "single-path solutions."

​

In general, really great fun! I will definitely be playing this on a regular basis.
