Withering Realms

I really really loved Withering Rooms so I've been very excited for this one. I was almost worried that my high expectations would leave me disappointed, but happy to say that wasn't the case! I found the moment to moment gameplay muuuch better than the first, while also expanding on the world, story, and exploration from Rooms that I loved. There's also a lot more unique systems to play around with mechanically. The buildcrafting is quite good in my opinion, and I had a lot of fun developing my character throughout the game. However what I really want to emphasize in this review is that this developer's biggest strength is creating an intriguing world with tons of exploration, secrets, and unique experiences. Idk, it's kind of hard to really explain but this dev just has a way to getting me really interested in their game's world and story that most games don't. I'll probably buy any game this dev makes going forward. If this game looks at all interesting to you, I really recommend it!

Finally. Bloodborne on PC. Thank you Moonless Formless for another banger.

Janky, sometimes frustrating but very far along and just as interesting as the original. First time I booted it up, I somehow spent 4 hours playing it.

The atmosphere and story is cool, and the setting. But really I only played this for more of the setting from the first game. The dev abandoned every unique feature, idea, and mechanic they had in the first game to just make a dark souls rip off but jank. If I wanted to play dark souls, I'd play dark souls since I could enjoy it without the clunkiness and questionably poor balance. That said, doing a playthrough of this game and getting all the ending and finishing most of the book of burdens made me just want to play the first game again, so I started a new playthrough of that and it really is just a better game in every way, I just can't understand abandoning every cool thing you came up with to steal someone else's design, but then do it worse.

As a gamer girl I highly recommend this product for other gamer girls, such as myself, as well as gamer boys.

Mostly impressions from the demo and a few sections and sidequests in town, great experience so far. Despite being early access feels already really polished and content rich. I will update the review later but I'd like to give a positive push to a worthy developer in the meantime
