C&P'D FROM MY STEAM POST:
I really, really, REALLY want this game, save for one thing standing in my way...
This has ALL the boxes that I require in a must-have game that are ticked, save for perma-death, as it's the one gameplay mechanic that I despise.
Unlike most people with the gambler's itch, I DESPISE wasted effort… As putting in your best effort for nothing is infuriating for those who aren't into gambling, as that is essentially what this gameplay mechanic is custom-made for.
Sure, it's a great adrenaline rush if you're in your twenties, there is no denying that, hence its popularity. But if you're in your 40s onwards, you don't have time to be wasting in a game where you have to begin all over again thousands of times due to an unforeseen death trap, or it's like!
That's the thing about this mechanic, as it's a gameplay mechanic with constant repetition for those with a gambler's itch, it's how and why it's so popular. So for those who do not have the gambler's itch, it's a complete waste of time…
Had this game included perma-death as a separate mode for those with the gambler's itch, I would snag this game right now **if it was available…
It's frustratingly dismaying, as this game is everything that I crave!
