Will display this: It was all just a dream
The puzzle elements in Chapter 2 were a real highlight for me. I loved how nearly all of the traps were telegraphed in some way if you took the time to look around the temple. It made my exploration of the space feel justified, and rewarded. It also gave me a lot of mileage out of investing in my Int score. That entire section was very polished, and super engaging.
Also, I don’t think I’ve ever been happier to fail a dice roll than the Faith roll in Chapter 3. If any new players are looking for advice on a dump stat, I’ve found that having a low Faith score has only made the whole experience more fun overall.
I played an earlier version of this chapter some time ago, so vaguely remembered the plot while I played it, but it was still good the second time around.
I found some evidence of hidden ink in the journal but couldn’t find any way to use that. I expected directing the light into that room might let me hold it up to it and read it, but that didn’t seem possible.
The start of chapter 2 didn’t seem to take into account if you (major spoiler) killed the imposter in ambush, or presumably were ambushed by it, which made the dialogue at the start seem a little out of place.
The start of the first chapter also seemed a little too heavy on retelling parts of the prologue instead of just covering the time gap.
