Crossing fingers that this one isn't delayed. I'm too curious to see what it's like.
Something tells me Obsidian will do everything they can to make sure this gets released on time. I don't see this game faring well against the competition it would face if it got pushed into 2023.

Hard pass as the graphics and setting don't interest me. :disappointed:

Day one for me. Graph style feels "fresh" and I am very interested in the time and setting. Although, I am sure the game will be different than I imagine it.

I thought you were a history fan? Though it's a very particular setting to be fair.
From interviews it's more of an adventure game then an RPG, and the chosen graphic style doesn't help. If it was more like Kingdom Come then I wouldn't be complaining.

This is just an indie passion project made on a small budget.

Understandable. :)

Yes, the style is special and minimalist. I hope it's possible to make it write the text faster, I wasn't convinced by this particular "animation" and I think it would quickly be annoying.

It is described as a narrative-adventure on the GamePass page, which isn't my cup of tea for a video game; even though the setting is appealing. I'll probably just read The Name of the Rose again.
