Title: Ori and the Blind Forest
Post by: Mew seeker on March 11, 2015, 07:27:43 PM
So today I was login on Steam and saw this game (http://youtu.be/cklw-Yu3moE).
Basically it's a Metroidvania type of game but man, it look gorgeous. Anyone tried it and has opinions to share on it?

Wow...Just wow. Somehow, I'm reminded of Dust: An Elysian Tail's art style just from watching this. Now I'm interested in playing it. =3
And of course, they have to spoil things by showing one of the main characters dying...REVENGANCE MUST BE DEALT!

Just beat it recently (picked it up on a pricing error). It's a very good game, with a much stronger focus on platforming challenges than pretty much any other game of this sort, pretty much every new ability you acquire has that (and speed) in mind. There's a lot of really cool tricks you can pull off, I'm highly looking forward to the upcoming SGDQ 100% run of it happening next week. Oh, and this need not be stated, but it's absolutely gorgeous. A very welcome breath of fresh air form the usual more combat focused approach these games tend to take.
