Elin, the sequel to popular rogue-ish Elona, has arrived on Early Access only on Steam. The asking price as of today is $19.99US with no sale price. There's a couple of videos showing off some of the features, but the text is Japanese. There is a little showing off of the crafting and decorating system in the game, which is interesting. So, not being able to read the text, for those curious, I can confirm that there are sheep in the sewers, just like in Japan. Very authentic. All in all, it looks like you get a ridiculous amount of stuff to do for that price.

Here's a preview video by SplatterCat since I failed to dig up a trailer proper:

​

  • A sandbox, open-world RPG based on roguelike gameplay.
  • Live your life, survive, craft, build and manage bases and towns, enjoy housing, fishing, theft, music, farming, livestock breeding, childbirth, setting up shops, tourism, and much more.
  • A seamless blend of endless randomly generated content and carefully crafted fixed content faithful to the world setting.
  • A continuously expanding world and gameplay. Updates will continue even after the early access.
  • The prologue to an epic story revolving around humans and the Elea.

I have to say, despite the whole Japanese thing which normally makes me adverse to things because I'm a racist like that, this thing looks pretty damned cool.

Thanks for the head's up, Mortmal! You rock!

He is a little bit too "reddit" for my taste of youtuber, but I do find quite a few games that he covers interesting. So I usually watch just a couple of minutes of his videos to see if the game is good enough and close the video. :lol:

Same. His actual playing can be aggravating and he's constantly losing his train of thought as he talks.
But he does regularly show some games that do seem interesting to me and that I'd likely not have heard of otherwise.
