A little mix up from what I was playing, I've heard nothing but good about and I mean dice, clocks, and ttrpg inspiration? Signnnn me upp
So far I love it. I'd say I'm around 2 hours in or so, not sure how many cycles exactly. I really love the feel of the game for suure. There's something great about the subtle anxiety of trying to balance quite a few things, but all kind of on your own time with no RUSH. Where do I spend this 6? Should I help this person or do this project? Hmm should I save this money? When should I take the stim? I think it hits its themes really well too, the ideas of balancing connections, debts, work, and your own health.
I've been playing pretty 'recklessly' and just kind of committing to things as they come, or risking it with low dice rather than waiting for extra cycles and such. The game's nature makes playing hard feel fun, and if things go terribly wrong, well figure out how to get out of it I guess.
I think one of my favorite small details so far is when a bounty hunter catches you and if you attempt to reason or beg he just motions to the earplugs he has in. Like damn. I'm not even going to deal with your attempts, I can't hear you, just doing my job.
I'm excited to keep going and I most surely will. I'm not a real replayer of games quickly after beating but already it's got me thinking of what another go might look like and I'm barely into the first.
So if you want a really well made, interesting, and evocative story game then I can't recommend more so far and I'm curious where it'll go.
