I...Kinda don't like how the new aspects work? (possible spoilers?)

[Zelda]

So this *may* because it's Early Access and things aren't in their place yet. I like the new aspect upgrade system in terms of upgrading the weapons. HOWEVER, I really dislike how I have a list of all the aspects ready to craft immediately. I liked how in Hades I that the aspects slowly showed themselves to you the more you played and even had some dialogue or lore about them. Currently, as is, they feel...empty and it gives no excitement of what may come next. Again, this may have to do with Early Access so I hope it changes.

I'm gonna take a ride on your topic because I was about to make one regarding the aspects as well:

What made me really disappointed with weapons aspects this time is that the only changes are their special abilities/bonuses.

On Hades, each weapon aspect was almost a totally new weapon on itself.
The attacks and specials were different from aspect to aspect.
Which gave you a true sense of "what's going to be like now? How's it going to play?"

I sincerely hope that this is just a place holder and in the future each weapon aspect will also change the way they play.

I haven't actually unlocked any because i don't have the materials but if this is true then that also saddens me immensely also. Getting new weapons and new forms for the weapons was one of my favourite parts about Hades I.

I really don't believe this is all the aspects we will get. Each weapon in Hades had four aspects--Zagreus, two immediately unlocked aspects, and the hidden aspect that required a waking phrase. You'll notice that each weapon we have now has an aspect of Melinoe and two immediately unlocked aspects. That's three, not four. It seems highly likely that a hidden aspect for each, with a more varied playstyle (like Guan Yu, Arthur, etc.) is waiting for us.

(Light Spoiler) || There are more aspects once you craft the first 4 weapons. I thought I had finished them all and after I did, a 5th one popped up. There are more. ||

That's really good to hear
