Final week I took a little bit of vacation to, you already know, make amends for some housekeeping, have a little bit of a relaxation and, to alter the behavior of a lifetime, play some video video games. I knew immediately what can be first up on my video game playlist: FAR: Altering Tides, the sequel to Okomotive’s fantastically melancholy roadtrip journey, FAR: Lone Sails. Whereas Altering Tides tells a separate story to its predecessor, placing you within the sneakers of a brand new protagonist and swapping its desolate wastelands for a watery seascape, the new, beating core powering the game stays very a lot the identical. With nothing left for you at residence within the wake of an unknown catastrophe, it is time to pack up and head on out for a brand new starting, with solely your hulking nice boat/steamtrain contraption for firm.

In the event you nonetheless have not performed FAR: Altering Tides, I would urge you to cease studying now and are available again later. There are huge spoilers in regards to the game’s ending developing on this article, and I actually do not wish to damage that for you. So, truthful warning, okay? In the event you’re nonetheless right here I am assuming you have performed and completed Altering Tides, as a result of holy moly, is not it simply probably the most excellent factor?
