First person, tb dungeon crawler.

There is somewhat a focus on use of environment, you can drop book shelves on enemies or push them in pits. Demo already available

Starsector-like game except it has non-ship parts too?


Has mixed reviews but the recent ones are mostly good, main complaint seems to be it's confusing.

It looks decent. Pretty sure they are the three protagonists on the artwork.

Sounds like they are mimicking old-Fire Emblems in this too.

The physically strong female protagonist is such a joke. You would think even devs would be tired of it now but they're not.

Yeah so many games have the looks just right but the insistance in including women as combatants is always jarring and buzzkill. I mean, one or two Valkyrie types and a few sorceresses or witch-types can be ok if the balance is kept really low compared to the rest of the characters. What do you think?

Edit: maybe not the best thread to discuss this, but I was thinking that most games and media in general would benefit that the dialogue between women (if any is needed for plot purposes) be described and summarized instead of watched/written.

Completely agree. You can have female characters that make sense (like the roles you suggested), but to always be placing them in physical strength roles ruins it. It's also more interesting if a character has certain limitations they have to overcome.

That's not how it works. These are religious and, more importantly, untested beliefs. They will never get tired of them, until (for instance) they're getting shanked by a ****** and a stronk wombyn cop hems and haws and ends up getting shanked alongside them. And maybe not even then.

Source: I have religious beliefs.

The most recent Mercenaries game is coming to Steam in a couple of weeks. They are bare-boned FFT clones, but I like them. I would only recommend this one, Blaze, or Rebirth. The others are ports ofolder games and missing some features of the newer games.

This is out now.

Path of The Abyss is still EA, but according to reviews, there at least 10 hrs of play and a working translation. The portraits look like they can be swapped, as well.
