I love seeing more and more indie devs taking inspiration from games like King's Field and Arx Fatalis, because once those games click with you they have a weird fun way of worming into your brain and making you constantly want to recapture the experience of your first time playing again.

Getting to see the first concept sketches of art for the TTRPG I've spent the past few years working on and refining has me LOSING MY MIND.

Getting art made for this longer term RPG project is nice because now I can show people this thing is real instead of expecting anyone I know to read an in-progress document thousands upon thousands of words in length.
