Sometimes that’s what it takes for new players to really feel and understand the consequences of their actions. Combat might not always be the best solution and escaping a battle is always on the table.

Any hype it had was killed by the gated access that required invites. Plus, Facebook didn’t have your racist uncle on it yet. It was still fun.

At least they let me turn my Stadia controller into a regular Bluetooth controller ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I have that problem with any linear RPG/adventure game. They paint the path from start of game to completion with VERY obvious yellow paint. I wanted to like games like Darksiders, but the game felt very “on rails”.

I don’t want every game to be open world, but don’t put breadcrumbs down for me either. Let me figure it out.

Dozens of people still use Tumblr!

Thats the real reward, the resplendent would just be a bonus if you got it.
