If you’re a big fan of number-crunching action-RPGs and/or if you enjoy the challenge of creative inventory management, then God of Weapons is the game for you, or at least your Steam wishlist.
This polygonal isometric actioner is all about the weapons, as the godly name implies, but this new expansion instead brings an emphasis on new characters and gameplay mechanics.
The three new characters are the Treasure Hunter (who gets their own new socket mechanic to take advantage of all that loot), the Necromancer (and their new summon system, perfect for raising the dead), and the Plague Doctor (he just smells real bad).
On top of the new fresh-faced trio there’s a new favor system and an Infinity Mode to keep players going long into the night. Throw in a few new enemies and bosses, and of course some new weapons, and you’ve got Eternal Nightmare, the new DLC for God of Weapons.
