Thanks for posting this @TurinTur. This looks like exactly what I need to finally get over the initial bounce off factor I experienced when I first tried Sunless Sea.
I really liked the atmosphere, the writing, the production quality…pretty much everything except the initial difficulty factor. I mean, I understand that part of the game is failure, and starting again with your “descendant” or whatever…but maybe I just sucked at it, because my initial take was that it was kind of brutal, and I don’t have time for that.
