[leech] the gradual worldbuilding is damaging my brain
Quinn Angstrom
at the start I got the sense that it was just sort of like
Quinn Angstrom
steampunkish 19th century with psychic brain parasites
Quinn Angstrom
but the narrator keeps just mentioning things casually
Quinn Angstrom
people fishing up old rusted electronics from rivers as 'treasures'
Quinn Angstrom
clouds of mosquitoes so thick they blot out the sun
Quinn Angstrom
the majority of humanity living in underground cities
Quinn Angstrom
there's a fucked-up moon
Quinn Angstrom
there's a meteor season each year
Quinn Angstrom
it seems to be post-multi-apocalyptic
Quinn Angstrom
like there have been a number of small apocalypses over time
Quinn Angstrom
and the world keeps just re-adapting
dragon time
Yeah,
dragon time
There is such strata of What The Fuck Is Wrong With This Place
dragon time
The narrator knows all this shit so they're not infodumping with aim to inform the audience they are just occasionally like
dragon time
"This reminds me of the time some guy came in after he got stabbed by the kniferain. Some people always think they can handle the kniferain"
Quinn Angstrom
I'm still struggling with figuring out what Wheatrock is
Quinn Angstrom
not sure if it's a plant or a rock
Quinn Angstrom
or both
Wild Child
that's a fun way to worldbuild
Bloodededeborne
Sounds intriguing... 
pastel ranma
Ooh yeah I'm curious
pastel ranma
The world reminds me, only slightly but it's still there, of Fallen London
BattroidBattery
yeah I used disco elysium as an example but I love this stuff
BattroidBattery
where you don't get any infodumps, at least not right away, people just mention stuff that sounds wild
Quinn Angstrom
Nier 1 had some great moments of this
Quinn Angstrom
the casual mention of how the planet doesn't turn anymore so it's always daytime
BattroidBattery
haven't played it but that sounds like something that would be extremely true of nier
