Completed Inscryption.
For real this time.
Act II is much more sane and enjoyable than Act I. It’s basically Pokemon, and now you have four classes (in Hearthstone terms). If you loose, you can retry immediately, no need to replay the last hour or so. And you can alter your deck as much as you want.
Actually, with the Painter boss, I had to alter it quite a lot. And that’s what I like to do.
Act III is still better than Act I. Nothing is as bad as Act I in terms of gameplay.
You get checkpoints, and you can edit your deck a bit by exchanging cards. Some fourth-wall moments actually made me chuckle: like a boss that asks you to pick your oldest file from your real filesystem, then threatens to delete it.
The ending sequence made me chuckle.
Honestly, I can forgive the horrible first act for how awesome the ending is.
“We don’t need to keep score” and a handshake from your nemesis.
And a glimpse into other Scrybes Worlds and Games.
