i think the characters and story are a definite high spot. the game is saying something about pollution and capitalism and how the two enable each other. it’s a little hammy but i really respect the devs for going for it.
but… the game feels really janky to play. it doesn’t have the tightness of the fromsoft souls games. it feels like a souls game was shoehorned into the default unity physics with no finesse.
this is a smartass answer but if no video game is catching your attention, don’t play a video game. do anything else. pick up a new hobby or revisit an old one.
that was extremely poorly communicated
