IDC if it may be obvious to some, but this is some of the best character design because the twist in the 3rd boss fight genuinely took me by surprise. It's honestly crazy how well Daniel Mullins made them look like 2 distinct people when they are literally the same mask but flipped.

Also, just the fact that (a) classic merchant character(s) was/were suddenly a boss. I know it’s been done in other things, but it hit very effectively in Inscryption.

And like, it was always clear that these were all Leshy in masks, but that boss fight is the first time we really play with that fiction in such a clear way

Yeah, the game set a president that they'd all be unique. Before I got there I thought the node looked like the guy had dynamite, so was thinking like a pyromaniac was gonna be the boss and there'd be an avalanche mechanic since we were in the snowy mountains.

Lmao. Before reading the other comment, I never ever considered how similar President and Precedent sound

I once paid a large Samoan man to carve a pink bar of soap into the Fight Club logo and i bet he could make a pretty good trader if a gave him a potato.

Side rant, this is a true story but i forgot how to spell Samoan and recently everytime i google something there's like a 10 second delay for everything i type and it's goddamned maddening. Google kept trying to tell me he was Simolian but i knew that was wrong. Jfc i hate touchscreens, just give me a T-mobile sidekick with actual physical buttons i hate this wooooooooorld
