- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
Started playing today. The Disco Elysium influence is front and center, so far mainly in the internal monologue/skill check system and in how political it gets. World building so far is interesting, but I suspect it won't quite match DE's impact for to the high fantasy setting. Although I say that after about 90 minutes with the game, so I could be completely wrong.
But most importantly, I'm having a good time, and I see the story sucking me in for the whole ride.
Edit: swipe keyboard typos...
I'm really excited to play it. I'm going through Planet of Lana 2 right now, and this one's next on my list. Good to hear it's a lot like DE in a fantasy setting.
