That is a really disturbing game, but brilliantly made in every sense. Jump scares still suck though. Your commentary was perfect for this, and I absolutely enjoyed this first part. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Oh man, even that end was depressing as hell. I know Norse mythology is pretty drat fatalistic, but there had been something more than that. Brilliant writing though, and the pictures do a great job of selling his story. e: Also it's an "point and click" adventure game that isn't obtuse and doesn't have retarded solutions, so it's already in the 99th percentile of the genre.

Deceitful Penguin posted:You cannot escape your doom. You can only change it. I actually admire the creators for doing it like that, because in the old stories there are no happy endings, only ones where some of the people live. I actually do have that, and I played about a couple hours of it, but it's just frustrating. It has all these weird sequences that make it feel like it's trying really hard to be taken seriously as a game. That frustration came to a head at that one boss fight where you have to reflect the balls back at that god thing to take it down, which I never beat because I gave up. It's a shame because I would be happy with just the great overall aesthetic of the game if I could sit back and experience it like a movie, like I do other exploration/adventure games with minimal interaction.
