Nice to see Lords of the Fallen getting some love—Friend’s Pass is a smart way to let players share the experience without commitment. The jump button and combat refinements feel like the devs are finally dialing in that Souls-like feel.

Hexworks really turning things around with this update—Friend’s Pass is a genius move to pull in more players. The combat tweaks and QoL improvements show they’re listening, which is always a win for Souls-like fans. Love seeing devs stick with a game post-launch, especially when the updates are this substantial. That jump button alone might finally get me to dive back in.
