Not enough to have an in-depth perspective on it. Even though, to my memory, that final boss theme is legendary.

I can't wait to see what you make. The Hollow Knight soundtrack goes hard as hell. You got good taste.

What's your favorite genre to write

Just the standard word count for a multi-choice experience. When it drops, I will be there no matter what.

You can try a more muted RPG. The saga series is on Steam, and the older games like Romancing Saga Three and Saga Frontier might have that feel you are looking for. However, if you're looking for something more niche and horror experience, you might want to look at emulation or RPG-maker horror

Actually thinking a bit more about the like, voice or vibe of an RPG and it made me remember this quote regarding Etrian Odyssey that also applies to Dragon Quest and other similar games, where they offload character writing directly to the player's imagination using game design as a tool.

the fog mound series is fun but if your looking for a complex read i can't help you there unless your into visual novels

Same here, hoping to find other people who want to reach out and want to be reached.

I, too, like "protopunk." Great game writing is incredible
