I like souls-likes, but the talk of taxes in the story makes me scared that it's libertarian cringe.
Also how does it run on Switch?
The tax officer is called a "Loan shark" and he's a plastic shark toy.
According to WhyEssEff it actually satirizes libertarians a la Bioshock. I haven't played it but I trust her so idk, play it!
Neat!
@WhyEssEff@hexbear.net cause you've played this, mind giving me your overall opinion? Good game or no?
It's really great. My personal favorite game of 2024 thus far, narrowly beating out Balatro
The politics of the game are all-but-explicitly socialist. I don't want to spoil anything or even any of the little bits because I was genuinely caught off-guard in a good way and don't want to deny that to others so you're just going to have to trust me here?
Switch performance is jank–no two ways about it. It's definitely unoptimized. They seem to have fixed the game-breaking/softlocking glitches on it (as I am currently making a friend couch-play it for my entertainment), but you are going to notice lag, I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
I don't think it's libertarian at all, the message seems very environmentalist

and the final boss is an annoying libertarian finance bro
Heard nothing but good things, thanks for reminding me to play this
I played it all, definitely not libertarian cringe. I really enjoyed the story, although it's not Marxist Theory: The Soulslike or anything.
It... doesn't run great on Switch. Crashed multiple times, glitched in a frustrating way during one of the first boss fights, just felt kinda janky at points, had to restart it when it slowed down too much to play. But if that doesn't sound like it'd bother you too much, definitely go for it. I enjoyed it a lot once I embraced the jank.
Didn’t one of us work on this? I swear I remember reading that a couple of weeks ago.
I was going to torrent this because I have negative money but then decided against it when someone said they worked on it.
A user was doing a bit where they said they did VA/design etc. for different media but didn't want to reveal for risk of doxxing
I've played the first 30 minutes or so and it seems fine. Gonna get back into it after i finish hellblade 2 and plague tale 2. and elden ring.
