I picked up En Garde recently because I absolutely adore the tone, setting and swashbuckling duelist vibe.
It’s a little flat for me, I don’t feel like it has achieved the character fantasy of being a swashbuckler in the mechanics, instead I’m basically kicking boxes into people and stabbing them again and again.

It’s really hard at the beginning
I’m not a fan of the bleakness of souls games but maybe I’d like En Garde better, it looks like a lot of fun
I wouldn’t call it a soulslike really. Beyond being an over the shoulder melee game, it’s more of a classic PS2 era adventure game.
I see Obra Dinn, I upvote. What an amazing game.
I’d call it the best detective game if it wasn’t for the shadow of the doubt
Hypnospace is SOOOOO GOOOOD if you grew up in the 90s on the internet.
Just bought, want to try
