Opinion: this dlc needed a bit more time to cook. Minor non-story related content spoilers below.
Everyone I've talked to has noticed the distinct lack of *stuff* in every region. No items, no unlockables, no new arenas or challenges, nothing. The only things to do are see the new creatures and enjoy the sights and vague story. It is, at its core, a stripped down region randomizer.
The thing that makes randomizers fun, though, is that it's meant to be an unfair and gimmicky way of experiencing places you've already been to. Most people have not been to any of these places! And in each region, there is near NOTHING to do while you wander. There is a vague goal that you aren't even sure is in the region you're in and an insane amount of danger around every corner to punish any wrong turns. Most of these dangers, by the way, are things never before seen nor understood, meaning players are already set to lose lots of progress for reasons beyond their power.
Rainworld, is an unfair game. We praise its difficulty and challenging enemies. But the true joy doesn't come from being unfairly punished, but in learning the abilities needed to overcome that unfairness and triumph over them. You can fly using nothing but the power of wiggles if you really wanted to.
Watcher is the pure essence of the unfun part of rainworld, really. YES I agree I missed the base game loop and love the return to form, that being "wandering without any greater purpose". But man, you gotta give the players something. Being stuck in endless loops for hours on end, being rewarded by nothing but death and loss of your abilities that could've been used to help escape your situation... all for ANOTHER dead end... can we not find a reward there? Must it be a karma flower or rift to a place I've already been, every single time?
Tl;dr I think the gameplay loop leaves something to be desired, and the distinct lack of any kind of story checkpoints beyond the main progression is eroding my patience.

I found a very old video I'd worked on that I thought I lost. Enjoy a little hollowknight animatic from 2021, in collaboration (very loosely, they sent me an image for reference) with valdotpng ^^

Replaying pmd (modded, obviously) and man. I love the tonal dissonance between the art and gameplay in this series, lol

It's super late, but I wanted to do a quick "art vs artist" / summary of 2024 :] mostly long form animation and slugcat sketches this year, but I snuck in a few good ones.

#cale henituse#the trash of the count's family#raon miru#Tcf#Art#Comic#I'm gonna be real I had too much fun with this#Also they look like foxes more than cats because I... Wanted them to. Yeah I don't have an excuse#I mean just look at how big they are in the bottom panel lmfao. Them honkers#Anyways I'm using a new technique to make art and it's shockingly fun#3d models baybe. Who knew they were so useful#Anyways I had to really struggle not to scrap the whole thing and redraw Cale to look more dynamic#Alas. I'll get good at using models eventually#Only rlly need em for the hoomans tho. Their faces are so... lumpy... it's hard to grasp#On the note of tcf. You should read it. Yeah you. The one who's reading this.#Did you like rainworlds story? Do you dislike how romance dominates everything? Do you like going crazy? Then you're probably like me.#There's a graphic novel (manhwa) if you're not into actual reading (the manhwa is actually insanely good and it's so deserved)#(like I'm convinced it started as a passion project. The artist goes so hard for no reason)#I'll probably illustrate some moments from the story if the mood hits me. This is gonna be my second read#(it's 2 million words it takes like at least a hundred hours to read it all) so I'm having fun discovering all the foreshadowing I missed#Actually let's see. Oh yeah. Lmao I've been reading for 28 hours and I'm 20% of the way through part 1#Idk how accurate that number is but I'm not a slow reader 😂#The Infinite Book™.#trash of the count's family#lout of the count’s family#lcf

I love swinging and bobbing things, they're so fun. Propeller was terrible tho 😂 I ended up using the wrong perspective and timing techniques, but I'm kinda over it so WWYD. Time taken: 5 hours. 2 of those hours were just the propeller I stg
