Just beat the first playthrough, and I have to say this game was totally up to my expectations
Just beat the first playthrough, and I have to say this game was totally up to my expectations. -Combat was different and tactical, yet enjoyable -Art Style was beautiful, especially on the cut-scenes -Story kept me glued to the screen -I took about 6 hours going through the first playthrough, that is with some time spend on the challenges -Totally looking forward to the Recursive Mode 2nd playthough Update After Recursive mode playthrough and 100% Achievements -Combat still hasn't gotten old, I love how you can drastically change up how you play by just swaping some skills around -Art is still spot on -Enjoyed the story the second time even more, helped me notice little things I didn't pick up the first time -Limters were a cool concept -The later challenges were perfectly hard without being unfair -This game was totally worth $20 -Definate buy if this game is on sale!! Couldn't have asked for more. I totally recommend Transistor! Thanks Supergiant for making a fantastic game.

I'm older than the rest of you yahoos
I'm older than the rest of you yahoos. Real life gets ... real. Games don't catch you like they did as a kid. Other worries vie for control of your mind even as you try to get away from them; after they're dealt with the mental fatigue often prevents you from getting immersed in a game (or anything) like you did in yesteryear. For a year or so I've been eye-ing Transistor, trying to discern its worth. It looked so flashy and neat, but experience has taught me that most such games nowadays have invested far too much in glitz and not enough in depth. They're shallow and vapid, something you regret wasting your time on after an hour. False promises and empty husks. A time waster at best. Transistor cut through all the old-age baggage and cobwebs-- all the accumulated life-experience that a younger me would just call cynicism-- and hit me in my gut. Maybe my heart. It sucked me in, keeping me up until 3 AM on workdays. There is genuine ART in this game. I'm thoroughly impressed, and wish I had bought it before. Thank you, Supergiant Games.

Ever just sit back and watch the clouds?
Ever just sit back and watch the clouds? Just relaxing and watching them go by not a care in the world? So simple and beautiful and as a bonus the clouds can become whatever you imagine. That’s the best way to describe Transistor simple, beautiful, and filled to the brim with imagination. +Pros
