@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games such a great game!

@matt@mstdn.games

I've tried to get into the sequel on several occasions, but somehow it feels like it misses that spark that made the original so incredible...

Then again, I wouldn't even know how to even start to attempt to replicate it.

@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games is that Catalyst? I never played it. One of the reasons the first game was so good is that the story was written by Rihanna Pratchett.

It’s difficult replicating that “lightning in a bottle” effect on a truly unique game like this.

@matt@mstdn.games that’s the one.
One of the issues was that it focused more on combat.
But overall, it just felt a bit off.
Still a really good game though. But yeah. Not the same.
