A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Totally forgot about this game, maybe its about time to finnaly buy it and give it a try ^^
Was thinking the same thing. Been looking for some stuff to load on the Deck for downtime at work. Never got around to these before.
I was excited for the first one, played about 65% of it & it became a chore so I quit. Never played the second, figured it was more of the same.
Second this. What broke it for me was the amount of absolutely pointless fights while traveling. And you travel a lot, as the name suggests.
I get trying to make an old school, grindy RPG, but it just fell flat.
Grimstone from UFO 50 is the game I point to for how to do a retro RPG well. Hell, all of UFO 50 is fantastic, I home there's a sequel.
It's not really my kind of gameplay but i got it for the visuals alone and the game does look really good. I love the 3D cardboard world artstyle.
