Great game, but the difficulty is incredibly high. Some kind of "come back" mechanic should be in place, early bad runs just gets worse as times progress. Also shouldn't monsters be cleared between each map event ? It feels odd that there is no breathing room in a run.
Yes being captured and fucked over if you don't have brad pisses me off tried for 4 hours still haven't beaten the first stage the lack of control over things is crazy the only ppl to beat it got lucky with the rng monster control is out of hand since they hurt stamina and Sr and lack of items to recover thise
