This is a rather interesting indie action RPG that unfortunately has been ignored. Most people think it's because it has a generic title. It's unique because of the way it handles its story. You make decisions that impact the story. 20 over endings.


QUOTE
Stories: The Path of Destinies is an action-RPG set in a vibrant fairytale universe filled with floating islands, majestic airships, and colorful magic. Reynardo, ex-pirate and unintentional hero, suddenly becomes the last line of the defense against the mad Emperor and his countless ravens. Can he come up with a plan that won’t blow up in his face, for a change?

In Stories, each choice you make takes Reynardo into a unique narrative. From tongue-in-cheek takes on heroic adventures to dark, Lovecraftian scenes, Stories’ repertoire is as diverse as it is action-packed. But Reynardo’s fateful decisions won’t always come easy: Sometimes retrieving a weapon lost at the beginning of time means sacrificing the life of an old friend. But with so many choices to make, so many potential dire destinies, wouldn't it be great to be able to come back in time, learn from your mistakes and find the one true path?


Key Features:
-Unique choice-based narrative in which players explore many different storylines to find the path to victory
-Fluid and fast-paced combat blending acrobatic swordplay, grab attacks, special abilities, and more
-Charming hand-drawn illustrations and a colorful storybook aesthetic
-A deep skill tree where players can unlock powerful new abilities such as the Hookshot or even Time Mastery
-An arsenal of magic-infused swords that can be crafted and upgraded
-An original soundtrack that changes dynamically with every choice



It's priced at RM31

You can watch my first impressions. Playthough the first few chapters. Yes each chapter is quite fast but the idea is to get your ending and replay to find the best ending.





Don't take my word for it. TotalBiscuit covered the game as well. But he doesn't like the combat which I found to be perfectly all right.

Yeap. I believe it is more popular on the PS4. But cheap on the PC. Like TB said, controller is recommended, but not essential.

This game has gone under the radar of most gamers. Thanks to maybe its super generic title.
