Dark Messiah of might and magic. I wish more games had full body awareness and actually MOVED your character’s body parts. ARMA 3 is probably a prime suspect for this as well.

This. This is my favorite comment here.

So excited to fetch-quest and get yelled at by discriminatory elitists in a new coat of paint!

Here’s to game design winning over money. One day a game might release with such priorities in mind. *cough*Pillars of Eternity*cough* One day...

thank you for this. glad to see from the actual BACKER himself.

Absolutely beautiful.
