    Cultic: Interlude is a free self-contained single episode DLC for Cultic, which takes place before the upcoming Cultic Chapter 2 and sees you playing as a different character. If you missed my video of Cultic Chapter 1, I've linked it at the end of the video if you'd like to check it out. :)

      I don't know what is the major malfunction of modern generation of gamers but it looks like they would eat up anything. That's the price of gaming becoming too mainstream i guess. AAA games can't provide anything other than variety of souless trash. Indie games are hit and miss but at least there is a choice and from time to time we have successful passion projects like Cultic.

      ​​@@NumbDigger22yea and what sucks most is a lot of these Triple AAA games basically have a monopoly over entire genres. If you want good fps multiplayer your only option is COD, and it's been dog shit for years. You want a multiplayer Arcade racing game you only have NFS which has also been shit. It's like the only viable options are horrible

    Honestly I kinda love how this Interlude chapter puts you into the perspective of another character, kind of reminds me of the half life expanisons like Opposing Forces, Blue Shift and Decay. Hope this character becomes a recurring player character or at least survives the end of the chapter.
