So I'm playing Underrail. Got it on the day of release, but have not finished yet (pesky work, family etc getting in the way , plus a broken perk caused an unfortunate restart, plus I like to take games I enjoy slow).
This game makes me genuinely happy. I don't know what it is, but I haven't had such a genuinely great time with a new release for a very long time.
My question to the codex is why? What makes the incline feel so steep? Why did wl2 and poe feel meh (not a criticism or an attempt to troll, just a personal feeling, your mileage may very well vary). What puts this one so far ahead?
I mean the writing isn't particularly earthshattering. Some of the mechanics are antiquated to a fault (though stealth and traps are imho genius this time around). The visual style is solid but not all that unique.
So why does this game make me (and many codexers, so it seems) so happy?
