Gave the game another try after the update and I'm actually enjoying it now. Gotten to the 2nd map and there are a ton of enemies fighting everywhere now. They really did increase the amount of NPCs you see around the map.
Wanted something moody/dark to play during October and this has scratched that itch.
Only played solo but I'd rate it as a 6.5/10 now. The original version would be like a 5/10 to me.
