    Apparently "MATEJ" is pronounced "MATEY" and not "MATEJUULAR" or "MATEJSAMUNE"

    Felvidek’s art style reminds me of those papers or assignments they would print out in elementary schools and because of the printer and ink they would end up looking like that. Not that the game looks bad I find it quite interesting and charming but it just reminds me of that sort of thing where the pictures on papers look off with school printers

    Wait, they got a job at Warhorse? While a remarkable accomplishment (who doesn't want steady work and pay), it's a touch bittersweet. It's clear as day Jozef has quite the creative bone, and the thought of him just working on little more than implementation is a little heartbreaking. Here's hoping they get a chance to direct their own game with a budget and team!

    Correction: Felvidek isnt a region in souther slovakia. It is what hungarian nationalists call the whole of slovakia, since it was a part of hungary for 1000 years. Would be like americans calling canada the 51st state (kind of)

    Weird, I'm playing a game that sounds a lot like this one in its structure right now. It's called The Bookwalker: Thief of Tales. It's about a world where writers travel inside books to write them. So you'll be traveling into 6-7 different stories, that give the game an anthology type of feel. It also is about two characters, with a mix of comedy and drama that works. Though there's more drama than comedy, not an even mix. It's more or less a point in click adventure game, but it also has a very small amount of combat that cleary is not the focus.
    That's a weird coincidence. I'd recommend it, it surprised me. It'll be in Gamepass until the 15ht of June, as it's leaving soon. It's 15 dollars otherwise.

    I think you're giving the combat too much credit. Once you use up your tools a lot of the fights devolve into just slapping the enemy with basic attacks until you chew through their HP, especially in the early game. The lack of in-combat MP recovery is novel, but in practice just means jogging back to a shrine for a full restore in between fights. There are only a couple areas where you're forced to do multiple battles without an opportunity to refresh.
    Everything else you said is spot on. Kickass game.
