Summary

Reviews Cult of the Lamb as combat-light: two attack buttons, limited weapons, no blocking/ parrying, repetitive hack-and-slash, predictable bosses. Its cult base-building, follower management, quests, technology tree, and resource collection create an initially addictive but increasingly grindy progression loop. He rates it 4.2/10, expects enjoyment to last only a weekend or couple weeks, and recommends waiting for DLC.

Insight

Continues the post-Elden Ring pattern of rejecting games whose depth and challenge feel insufficient.
