    I haven’t played the 2nd but I remember the first feeling like eight separate short stories that just so happened to include party mechanics and level grinding.

    “I only work alone.”

    “Join up with this group of 7 random people?”

    “Okay!”

    I’m kind of confused, both games currently support the current platform and were not broken. Is it typical for them to add games to the preservation program like this? I thought it was for games that no longer work on modern systems, or idk preservation. It’s a good thing to be sure, but my reaction is just “what?”.

      Was thinking the same thing. Been looking for some stuff to load on the Deck for downtime at work. Never got around to these before.

        I was excited for the first one, played about 65% of it & it became a chore so I quit. Never played the second, figured it was more of the same.

      It’s not really my kind of gameplay but i got it for the visuals alone and the game does look really good. I love the 3D cardboard world artstyle.
