Do it, if you like sludgey riffing.

Dark Castle - Surrender to All Life Beyond Form

Female-fronted stoner/sludge doom.

Saw them open for the almighty YOB back in 2011. Stevie Floyd is a badass.

I don’t understand why these Google alternatives don’t lean hard on actually replacing Google’s services.

Myself as an example; if Notesnook had collaboration, I’d switch in a heartbeat.

Thr main use-case for an app like this for me is in things like grocery lists, to-do lists etc, all of which are impossible or annoying to do with Notesnook.

For general offline notes that need to be encrypted there are other solutions I’d rather use. I’d like if I could just use one app for it.

Me and my partner would HAPPILY pay for an app to get out of Google’S clutches.

There’s money on the table, but they ain’t counting it yet.

Why?

I like it, but haven’t played more than a few hours.

The voice acting and (most) character faces feel insanely dated, though. Fantasy just comes off weird in an American accent.

The game runs poorly and doesn’t really look and feel that great considering the processing cost, but that’s just Unreal Engine 5 being shit.

Those are my biggest complaints.

Combat is pretty engaging and I think it’s pretty cool, but it can be kind of health-spongey. Feels like it needs some work to feel better and more fluid.

The story seems okay, although I haven’t gotten far. Kind of generic fantasy akin to Divinity Original Sin 2/Baldur’s Gate 3 or Pillars of Eternity (duh).

Honestly, I like that it’s not just another murder hobo simulator and has a bit more focused story.

It’s a pretty solid 6-7/10, which is fine. Maybe it’ll grow on me, but there’s no chance of it becoming another Cyberpunk 2077.

Hopefully they learned from making this and The Outer Worlds 2 is a lot better than the first one.
