@previous (Cathy !TGirlYJKXM)
Well, you travel by air on something like a roller coaster, that you dangle from by your arm. Its very fast, and you can use it to escape enemies, or shoot people mid air.

Also you have a pretty little helper character thats actually useful. She can find money, and you don't even have to protect her during battles.

One of my favorite things is that you can summon crows, and they'll tear apart your enemies.

I spent $20 on a DLC season pass. It gives you two gun upgrades and gold skins for them, five extra infusion bottles, four new pieces of gear, and later three different pieces of DLC content when it comes out.
