Happy #screenshotsaturday!!

Today's screenshot of The Victor i
Initiative is of a place I can't say much about due to spoilers.. What I will say is that this place IS in the initial early access launch.. even if it doesn't seem like it.

It's weird, it feels tough at times but you always seem to push through it regardless. A few encounters have taken multiple sessions, but nothing's ever made me want to quit entirely.

Thank you so much!
