I Speel My Dreenk Posted December 1, 2012 While I haven't played it yet, Miasmata looks like something that could be right up some folks' alleys (lookin' at you, ja2ke). Here's a GIantBomb quick look. It looks to have decent atmosphere, but more importantly a map that you hold in your hands and in-world wristwatch, compass and notebook . You also map the game area manually by triangulating your current position based off of visible discovered landmarks, can stumble and fall when running downhill, and partake in a seemingly in-depth experimental botanical crafting system. ALSO, you can dual-wield a knife and... a bouquet of flowers. I plan on getting this when I have some more time on my hands, but I'm curious if anyone thinks it's as good as it seems.

shammack Posted December 1, 2012 I played a little bit of this today. I had a hard time getting it into a playable state... had to turn all the graphics settings way down or else I got a bunch of weird visual glitches and terrible frame rate. But once I did that, it seemed pretty charming. All I've really done so far is craft a few medicines and run around and get lost, and I'm not really sure what else there is to it (I hear there's a creature of some sort, but I haven't encountered it yet), but the exploration part is pretty satisfying. I really like the map system, and the world seems pretty large and detailed. It definitely has that sort of slightly clunky, "made by two dudes" feeling to it, but if you don't mind that, it's got some interesting ideas. I'm looking forward to playing more of it.
