    I realize this is not the right thread but allow me a mild derail...Redwall enthusiasts that are also gamers...or if you like Woodland creatures at all...this game comes out in two days.




    I've had my eye on this, though I won't get it straight away. It takes very particular things for either farm/life sims in general or survival sims to grab me, but this might have them.


    Also: this exists. And is old enough to often be on sale, I'm fairly sure.

    The epic, high-stakes fantasy I've been reading for has a new book out, and the start has drawn me right in. And once I'm done with Dead Hand Rule, latest in Max Gladstone's Craft series and (I think) the finale of the Craft Wars, I've also got No Life Forsaken in the stack.



    Fished Dead Hand Rule and, uh, yeah, that was a lot. That's a convergence alright.

    I confess I did think when I found out after starting that the trilogy had become four books late on that what would have happened is there was simply too much story for one book so he split it, which is what's happened: this is quite Dust of Dreams/Infinity War/Peace Talks and very much half a story.



    You all should read this series though.


    Anyway, on to No Life Forsaken.

    New Star Wars Visions season is out. First five episodes are all solid, though of the first four I have to say two- the sequels to The Duel and The Ninth Jedi- are clearly made with one eye on the expanded mini-'verses both are getting and two seem to be angling for that treatment themselves. I did enjoy them all though. The Bounty Hunters in particular, because one of the things I enjoy most about this series is creators putting new slants on the design and mythos and that one manages to do that.
    Yuko's Treasure is just a cute little mini-adventure.

    The episode getting the real hype, though, is BLACK, by Shinya Osira and David Production, which is apparently a surrealist headdtrip in the mind of a stormtrooper having a breakdown. I'm going through by listed order and it's last, so I'm building up to it but I'm looking forward to it.

    Finished ORI AND THE BLIND FOREST, which was a stunningly fun game to follow up HOLLOW KNIGHT with...only took about two weeks to finish it to 100%, but man what a lovely and calming ride. Gorgeous game.

    And I needed another Metroidvania game to dive into, and NINE SOLS was on sale so I grabbed it. MUCH more challenging than ORI, but a blast to learn and the story and visuals are amazing. Can't wait to get properly sunk in.

    EDIT: I was gonna grab ICONOCLASTS PG, but the NINE SOLS sale was like half price so it made more sense, I'll go for ICONOCLASTS next.



    Nine Sols has a hell of a story too. I didn't ultimately enjoy it that much because even with excellent difficulty options it just focuses on a type of combat that I don't find as fun. But if you dig the combat it's a good purchase.


    Definitely on the more linear side of the Metroidvania scale but then so is Iconoclasts. It's definitely aiming for that Cave Story tradition.
