Oh I love this game so much. When I think "indie game," this is exactly what I want.

The world feels so big outside of the little box you're constrained to, being an impoverished worker who physically and financially CANNOT interact with the promises of adventure that all of the items and NPCs hint at. You pick up these crazy weapons and spells and items, but you can't make any use of them aside from selling them for 2% what they're actually worth, because you're a JANITOR and nothing more, and you never will be, because that's how the system works. Everything feels so much bigger than you, and the first few days you spend in the spaceport just feel so overwhelming from the sheer scale of the world speeding by around you. It's sort of what I imagine being an immigrant to an alien city feels like, where you know how to get by, but everything is still horribly confusing and scary and new, and you don't know if you're doing the best thing because nobody will help you.

The game is a lot more like the Souls series than most of the games that actually try to emulate FromSoft design, it's got a lot to say about cycles and being caught in a sort of devastating curse that forces you to spend all day every day grinding towards a seemingly impossible goal.

(There is one little game-breaking bug if you forget to pick up the ziggurat tablet piece, that's all)

A wonderful game about what it means to be an artist in an age where everything has to be publicized and monetized and catered to an audience, I think about this game a lot when I burn out and wonder if I'm even making art for myself anymore, and if not then for who

It's every other FPS game, except the entire community is a ♥♥♥♥ at a constant pace unless you happen to be an all-star player all the time. Not worth the time when you can just download Warface or some other F2P game to get your shooter kick.
