Thankfully, once you start understanding what the game expects and find your way, it becomes much more interesting. It has unclear directions of what you are supposed to do and how to do it. Initial impressions on the game were worrying with one of the worst opening sections I’ve played through in a long time. Stygian is at its absolute best when it lets its RPG elements come through. Or if you have higher investigative abilities, you can find a loose brick. Although, if you are more into science, you can mix chemicals to erode the lock. For example, early on in the bank of Arkham there’s a safe behind a section of the wall that you can break down with strength and a heavy weapon. The actions that you can perform are impacted in your current stats. The lower your sanity, the more your character will act up, leading to odd behaviour such as dialogue options shifting. Of course sanity is a major theme here and it’s a resource that is as essential as your health. Stygian encourages you to role play as your character, focusing on their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses. I highly recommend going for a custom character for the best experience here, though those new to RPGs might prefer a preset character. Everything from your character’s main class, to beliefs, and individual attributes can be tweaked to make your perfect character. However, those looking for a much deeper RPG experience should look into the excellent character creator, where you get to fine tune the character you play as. When you start the game you get a choice of using a pre-designed character with stats and abilities pre-mapped out. The content we produce is obviously not free of use should you want to upload our videos on your own website or YouTube channel.Stygian doesn’t try to avoid the more controversial aspect of Lovecraft’s work. We now also produce HDR videos, which can only be enjoyed by those who own compatible televisions. At a time when Youtube's subpar video compression has become the norm for most people on the Internet, we refuse to give up quality without a fight.
