What a lovely and charming game, the main puzzle of figuring out what the words mean is very absorbing.
How's the story?
>>751491852what weg is this?
>>751491957Disappointing since it feels like it's building to something greater than what actually happens.
>>751492059That's a shame. I recall pirating the game to check it out but I dipped pretty early on when you had to follow a kid and the sneaking sections. Really cool concept, though.
>>751491852as a bilingual (japanese) i actually dropped the game because it was too easy and i was bored. It was accurate to learning a real langugage in many ways, i suppose.
>>751491852Been playing some Message from Aliens recently. Is this any similiar?
>>751492253Still worth playing but it could use more worldbuilding and lore because the setting really sparked my imagination.
>>751492636Alright, thanks. I'll see how I feel after I finish Order of the Sinking Star.
It's a slight shame that more effort was put into the construction of the languages than is actually required to decode them. Makes sense for an accessible game, but you don't notice a lot of neat shit if you aren't specifically looking for it.
>>751493656hmmmm
>>751491957Pretty averge and by the book but the journey is enjoyable.Not a hard puzzle game by any means though if that's your thing.
>>751493656We need to drop everything we've built and draw stick guys doing stuff like cavemen.
I liked it a lot but I remember the last level being underwhelming.Poet Desert level was a blast.
>>751493656kino
>>751491852too bad the last level fucking sucks
>>751491957Kill yourself.
>>751495728>>751496213I don't know why every puzzle game tries so hard to pull a metagame/narrative part at the end. Some manages to do it alright (like Blow) but it shouldn't be a requierement.
>>751491852I really liked it, but I played it with my very high IQ friend and he raped all the puzzles instantly the moment he joined my playthrough during the 3rd world. Any time we play puzzle games he does this (although I am good at figuring out schizo bullshit and random small details) but it felt especially painful this time because I'm a linguist so I can't believe he figured out that one of the languages had the verb at the end and I didn't
>>751491852I feel like this & Death Stranding are the most catholic games imaginable.
>>751496907???
>>751497102Are you asking why I think that?
>SENNAAR! DO NOT REDEEM!
>>751491852If I had a dime for every time a game focused on deciphering languages had a completely underwhelming finale based around a science-fiction twist that isn't properly explored or utilised, I'd have two dimes. Not much but it's kind of annoying it happened twice.
>>751491852I was too stupid to play it but it seemed cool from what I played
