Adam Beckett Posted September 20, 2016 Oh, no! Now, I have to finish the game, before I can listen to this.I loved the first Banner Saga.The writing in this game is just exquisite! It holds up against my favorite, long dead, Fantasy writers (E.R. Eddison, Tolkien...). If a game makes you read the entries on the map with delight, you know, they are doing something right. An 'adult' world, without the usual cliches. The balance between dialog, travel and fighting has a nice 'flow' to it. And yes, the art ... the devs deserved every prize they received for their game. It is also amazing, what a few dedicated developers can accomplish together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
