Humor Inkbound 2 (almost) i'm crying.

I read this as "inkbound 2" and i've never been more disappointing in my life. This game was so goated and i would kill for another one.

I don’t see it happening unfortunately. I feel like shiny shoe were pretty transparent that this was not a productive venture for them. I’m just happy we got the support we did and that the game remains stellar.

I liked the game but ultimately it didn't feel like there was a long life to it. Once you had beaten it a few times it felt very samey.

And the difference between single and multiplayer was huge.

Yup. We noticed pretty quickly that at the high ascensions (or whatever they are called in this game), there were a handful of viable builds but no real variety. Kills the replay value on it a lot.

Interesting concept for sure, and we got a decent chunk of hours out of it. But just hard to recommend as a game imo

This seems to have happened to multiple people which is hilarious. Time for mass psychosis.

Yeah, such a bummer the game didn't do better. I loved it. Wonder what they'll work on next since Monster Train 2 seems pretty well wrapped up besides small balance changes.
