I wonder how much it's changed. It's kind of mind blowing to me that this got a standalone release. I played the mod and it was so so. For a mod.

Although I'm not the biggest fan of the base game, I might check this one out the next time I feel the urge to play an action-y type game.

Unless they changed it a whole lot, you would be disappointed then. It was a murder mystery sort of thing where you ran back and forth between characters and talked to them. Very little fighting or action of any sort.

To be clear, I don't think that makes it bad. But you said you'd try it when you want an action game, so I wanted to let you know that unless they changed it a lot, it ain't that.
They say it's a detective sort of game, the absence of combat doesn't bother me. It looks interesting to explore, and I like the idea they tried to accurately reproduce the ancient Rome's architectural style. It's a bit surreal with the artificial lighting though, but it can easily be ignored.
But I saw in the gameplay that there were big pointers like in AC games (at least to Diane's shrine). So I hope these can be turned off, and that this game is not holding the player's hand all the time. We'll have to see when it's released. Perhaps it's just an occasional, QoL feature.
They should probably know that gold would be less robust than those plants, when climbing the rocks

This looks dreadfully boring to me. Rewinding time to speak to the same NPCs again and again just doesn't appeal to me at all.
For me, there has to be something compelling to take the place of combat in games without it. I'm not seeing that here. It should appeal to fans of adventure games though.
