It’s been on my ‘one of those days’ list for years now, and with Resonance out, they ran a $6 Steam sale for the original which put it in the impulse buy category. Fast forward a week and I’m out of town for work with some hotel time to kill so hooked my Steamdeck up to the TV and gave it a go and wow… I see what the hype is about.
Any non spoiler tips, tricks, or things I should be on the lookout for?


I don’t consider what I’m about to say a spoiler, but some people might.

There is a part of this game that is going to knock your socks off. It raised my bar for how good a section of a game could be. It’s up there with the intro to Ocarina of Time, sneaking into the second building in Into the Radius where things finally started to click but I was still scared shitless, and the lake scene in FFX, carved into my soul.
Once you’ve gotten to that part, let me know because I just like going back and forth about how incredible it is. If you get through a part of the game and wonder if you’ve gotten there, you haven’t gotten there yet. When you get there, you won’t wonder.
No spoiler but when Ahti gives you headphones, put some real headphones on.
