πŸ—ΊοΈ Embark on an epic journey to Oregon with the official successor to the iconic classic.

Legit successor? interesting.

edit: after watching... I'm not sure. The original was lightning in a bottle: right time, right game, right place. This has parts of it, for sure, but I don't think the original can be made again. There are a buuuunch of new mechanics. Could be good or bad. Need more detail.

To me the graphics are turn off for me, just judging by trailer you have very old style Graphics which are cool so like your town and your party is a rimworld style Graphics which I'm on board with and then you go out on the trail and suddenly you have full-on shadered water and an actual detailed scenery background, but your party is still in that old style graphics? I'm really hoping they ironed that out before launch because it looks absolutely horrible
