If you want a bit more depth to the lamb check out the games social media pages - they have a lot of fully voiced clips of lore, shenanigans and shitposts.
I’m also not usually a fan of roguelite games but this one hooked me back in 2022 or whenever it released. Been replaying it recently due to the dlc that was just released and it’s still really enjoyable.
I think it’s partly because of normally in roguelite games when you start out you always lose runs until you unlock enough meta upgrades to become stronger. In this game you have a chance from the very start to finish runs which feels way more satisfying to me.
I think you summed it up perfectly, there’s not an awful lot of grinding (if that’s the right word) to beat a level. I’m sure there’s other roguelikes like that, but this is the first one I had a brush with
Say goodbye to whatever in-game morals you think you have. CotL is wildly addicting in an amusing way.
You’re pretty much right on the money that the lamb is kind of a “blank slate” for a player self-insert. Freedom of choice (for you, not your followers, ofc) is the name of the game.
When I had noticed that I could sacrifice one of my followers in a skill tree, I figured I might have to sacrifice some of my own morals. It does make me tempted to try to keep as many morals as possible though just for the challenge
I really had fun with it though the city building aspect starts to feel too loading bar heavy. I wish they had a more clever way to disguise that aspect of it.
I always assume it’s because i do so much Halo. Which, i mean, i think is a fair opinion for someone to have. I do post a lot of Halo stuff. Though, i knew one guy who wouldn’t give Halo a try, as he saw it as “Mid-Sci-fi slop”, which is… certainly an opinion. Can’t say it’s one i even come close to being able to agree with.
I feel like Halo could be equated to like “early Federation” from Star Trek (I’m not a Trekkie, but I know some things).
Like how humanity discovers FTL space travel and the rest of the galaxy opens up to them and we meet a technologically superior faction of advanced alien races. That’s probably where the similarities end, but it does paint a slightly hopeful light on humanity’s future, even if it is entirely fiction.
What really should bother us here is that the dead area applies to the farms but not the mills, iirc. It causes farms on the right side to be verifiably more efficient because farmers prefer the left side for pathing.
The whole mill perimeter is usable equally despite the way it looks, ironically enough.
Also farms that far away from the mills bothers me. Hate it when the French? campaigns do that.
It’s wild to think that literally every human being who ever lived—all our history, drama, and breakfast plans—is tucked away in that tiny blue sliver disappearing behind the moon. It’s the ultimate "blue marble" moment, but even surge credit card pre approval more lonely.
