farawaytimes's review of Fire Emblem | Backloggd
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade's always had an air of mystique for me. I tried it several times as a teenager, but I never made it past chapter 15ish. I was entranced by the unique-to-me strategy RPG ...

the japanese script is definitely funnier and more dynamic, but putting forth mental effort to read infinite variations of "I'm going to battle you" and "oh no I lost" starts to feel like a joke I'm playing on myself

this week's rpg experiment "The Master's House" - centers the beloved rpg trope of "boss that talks to you while you fight" - you can play in your browser (mobile-friendly) (windows dl available) - made in 12 or 15 hours - it is possible to get the definitive ending tunditur-unda.itch.io/rpg35
game screenshot. battle view. the player faces a young woman standing in the forest on a rainy night. the dialogue box reads: "i'm not the helpless little girl i was when you found me. it's time for you to accept that."

stuff i think would make a cool feature: overviews of obscure rpg devs' oeuvres, condensed interviews with community figures, deep reads on especially unusual games, spotlights on scenes, jams, microgenres, design analysis (im biased). if you got a different idea, pitch it to us! we're curious!

i'm still digging issue 2 out of limbo but dark world remains open for submissions for issues 3 and beyond. we're especially in need of 500-word features, so if you're itching to sound off about an rpg-related topic, we're itching to platform you
