Sea of Stars | A retro-inspired turn-based RPG
seaofstarsgame.co
Sea of Stars is an upcoming turn-based RPG for PC and console. A prequel story set in The Messenger’s universe, it tells the story of two Children of the Solstice who will combine the powers of the sun and moon to perform Eclipse Magic, the only force capable of fending off the monstrous creations of the evil alchemist known as The Fleshmancer.

I read about this game months ago, when it was released I was very glad to see that it was on PS Plus from Day 1. Since I am already subscribed to PS Plus, I have downloaded it and playing it right now. I really like the game up until now.

I will probably try the studio’s other games like The Messenger when I’m done!

    Yeahh, that’s what I was worried about.

    It annoys me because I’m writing my own story, agonizing over excess word count and trimming every scene I can, but I still feel like they’re all additive and value - even if not to the core plot, to some very valuable theme.

    Then I play a JRPG and there’s just a random scene where two characters go play hide and go seek for pure padding.

      The medium matters. And context does too. This is a videogame. I have to play through your content. You are writing what I assume is a book or comic.

      I’m Sos case, those first 5 hours are useless. Does it help to know where the main protagonists came from? Sure. It adds to the story. But if I have to play through that and none of that ends up being relevant to the story, then it was filler content.

      I saw a comment where they compared this game to chrono trigger, saying how in 5 hours toy had traveled back and forth through time twice, rescued a princess, got in a trial for kidnapping and added 5 characters to your party.
