- would I enjoy tunic?
i usually enjoy having to figure things out in games. i really liked portal and portal 2, i still haven't finished half-life but i do enjoy the the run, think, shoot, live philosophy of the game, but I always look things up whenever I play an open world game because I don't want to have to bother with having to figure out how to progress, or even if i do bother trying to figure out on my own, the clues i find will be cryptic and I'll just look up a walkthrough or something of the like. this is most prevalent in elden ring, and I especially don't like how there isn't a quest tracker. I believe that requiring a player to take notes to remember what they need to do on a quest is bad game design, even just letting the player look through past dialog would be extremely helpful. i get that there's a certain appeal to that, but I don't get it at all.
anyways, the point is to say that I enjoy puzzles and figuring things out, but I don't like it when things are so cryptic to the point where I have to look up how to do something because never in a million years would I be able to figure it out, and if i do somehow, I'll have absolutely no idea why it works and wonder how on earth I was supposed to figure it out in the first place. would someone with a mindset like mine enjoy tunic? I haven't looked a single thing up about it since all i've heard about it was to not look things up about it.
