Or maybe the indie direct is the rumored direct for thursday?Weird it just popped up. The devs weren't allowed to confirm it so maybe an indie direct got canned
Story of a college dropout coming back to her hometown and finding out everything has changed. It's a story about the struggles of young adulthood and what it's like to reconnect with friends who have moved on from you. There are some elements of conspiracy that crop up too, but really the highlight are the interactions between the main group of characters. Gameplay consists mainly of just talking to people (and the occasional mini-game), so you really get what you give with this one, it's up to you to go and seek out the conversations worth having with the townsfolk. You also day to day make different choices of how to spend your time, so you can't see everything. I haven't done multiple playthroughs but I intend to revisit it at some point. It's so earnest and it's a really incredible time, I just finished it on Xbox at the beginning of the year and liked it way more than I was expecting.
It really nails everything it's trying to do. It's just super light on gameplay, but that certainly didn't detract from my experience at all.
It was 60 on PC.
Yeah I gotta ask...6.2GB, really?
It's not all about the graphics, but still... wow
imo, if you don't wanna be all "you can't compare two open world games because slight differences in design* about it, it is definitely in the same wheelhouse. Personally I much prefer Night in the Woods. The writing is seriously great.Yeah, I'm curious about this as well. The text bubbles in the trailer were reminiscent of it. I really enjoyed that game on Switch over the Holidays. If this is similar, I'll pick it up.
Insta buy for me. I was planning on buying it and now I can play on the go.
Ohhh I've heard good things about this game. Yet another reason to get a big micro-SD card lol.
Neat, sounds good. I'll definitely pick this up then.imo, if you don't wanna be all "you can't compare two open world games because slight differences in design* about it, it is definitely in the same wheelhouse. Personally I much prefer Night in the Woods. The writing is seriously great.
Outside of dialogue its mostly platform based exploration and a ton of goofy one-off minigamesI know it's a story-driven game but how is the game part?
I don't care a lot about stories in videogames. Only TLOU and FFVII really interested me.

Maybe not for you then? Gameplay is very light. Most of the game control I guess could be described as 2D platforming but you're really just walking around the town and occasionally jumping on roofs and whatnot, but that's all in the name of exploration and not for any sort of benefit other than to find a hidden story bit. Your character is also in a band so you sometimes play a short rhythm game along to their songs, and you trigger a bunch of other random mini games by hanging out with your friends and exploring, they're funny and novel but Mario Odyssey this is not. This is a game for people who are okay with just doing a lot of reading, people who can get fulfillment out of character development where they won't get it through satisfying mechanics.I know it's a story-driven game but how is the game part?
