If recoil's going to stream this, you might want to install in the channel the Twitch plugin that the devs made for the game, icy: https://steamcommunity.com/games/269190 ... 5907054815

We are happy to announce that our Twitch extension is available:

https://www.twitch.tv/ext/mcqv9994mfztn ... 0bd3-0.0.1

With this extension you can make your viewers vote for random events that can happen ingame, save your streamer when he is danger and sometime your viewers are also ingame monsters.


Sounds hilarious, though I've no idea how it would work.

Yep I noticed that too and just installed it:

Whoever's around when recoil streams, check it out. Sounds fun, but it also sounds like it could break the game if viewers abuse it. Here's a more detailed description of what it does, taken from the plugin page linked above:

I streamed the first two hours here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/v345293914
YouTube VOD here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbAuebKfnJg

I’ve definitely seen more compelling openers, here it’s a walk through a canyon with dialogue from the main characters giving you bits and pieces of what’s happening to them. No guns blazing, no apocalypse, no giant robots burning down villages. All a bit underwhelming and some bland character designs and some wooden animations don’t help its cause. On the bright side, the music is pretty good and the combat system is more compelling. It definitely isn’t braindead like some other JRPGs and seems to have some legs. I’m a bit hopeful that past the first two hours there will be bigger battles and more complex environments to fight in, though I’m ambivalent about continuing the game.

As for being in Early Access, I haven’t run into any major game-breaking bugs, but several minor issues. I’ve encountered brief moments of slowdown, characters clipping through and getting stuck on things, audio desyncs, the same tutorials popping up several times, quest markers irrelevant to the current quest, and the main character, Daryon, getting cloned in a cutscene. icy did mention in the stream chat that the Twitch plugin wasn’t working and that there may be some major slowdown past the two-hour mark. I went a little over two hours and the game was still running fine, but my stream seemed to be hitting lower FPS.
