Hey everyone. Hope all of your weekends have been refreshing and relaxing. This week I've been at it with some Stronghold Crusader remastered and Balatro. Hope you all have a good week!

I mean it's so good I'm just wondering how it manages to do that despite there just being so little in the way of gameplay

I played some of the Resident Evil remakes recently (spooky season) and gameplay-wise it basically reminds me of 2, which is the one I liked the most by far anyway. But then you have much richer storytelling, really confident deep worldbuillding, and just an amazing presentation all layered on top. It's definitely a game and story that's well honed to my vibes though (meta Stephen King stuff, Twin Peaks, XFiles, folk horror etc)
