Software developer and a novelist

Direct message

Alongside the Buddy Bot, Frost Giant’s implementing game modes to appeal to players who are interested in RTS gameplay, but might not seek out the intensity of 1-on-1 competitive RTS matches. In addition to a story campaign that can be played with three players, Stormgate will have a separate 3-vs-AI mode, custom games, and a competitive 3-vs-3 mode where each team has to defend a single, large base structure.

As the typical RTS enjoyer who only plays singleplayer, this type of paragraphs make me less and less interested in this game.

This is unfortunately typical of visual novels. The line level sentence-to-sentence prose is rarely even adequate, and often what they choose to describe is already shown as an image on the screen. The best ones, I feel, simply omit the prose and have only dialogue, and if they choose to describe an already-visible image, the description ought to tell what isn’t already available as visual information.

At first glance this looks like a heart (the actual organ). Overall I like the ones where you tend to go for warm colors with this kind of gradient.
