Salt and Sanctuary

this is like if a developer team made a game guys its revolutionary

I don't think S&S quite lives up to the standard of a 'must play' title, but its not far from it either. Players will be met with a satisfying reimagining of a souls-like in a 2D space. There are some pretty nice quirks specific to this title like the mini base-builder element at every sanctuary but there are a whole mess of systems that I know I under-utilised because of poor communication in-game between the devs and the players; Whenever I unlocked a new brand, for example, I would always have to google how to actually use it. I was able to brute force my way through with a buffing, 2h, rolling character but I know there is a world of depth available for someone willing to sit and plan out their skill tree, learn the covenants, grind for maxxed gear; they'd just also have to be willing to wade through a bunch of community guides first and that's where this game falls short for me.
