The reason I’m so hard on Moonscars is how much potential it has.  It creates a beautiful world, with an interesting primary story.  It has a great game system.

And this is why the flaws stick out more.

The game uses the same resource for magic and healing.  This seems like an attempt to GIT GUD, but forgets that this locks the magic system out of the game.  Because of this you can’t depend on your magic, which means the game boss fights don’t need magic.  And, then you have to ask, why do you even have the magic system?  Well, because the magic system is one of the only things in the game that has permanent progression.  And the game locks it out.

For those that say “GID GUD”, we’re not talking about how hard the game is, but how fun it is.  As I have been able to make roughly steady progress.  This is about fun.  The game is NOT fair, but close, and that close is one of the things what prevents it from reaching greatness.  You can walk through enemies, which is pretty common nowadays.  Your attack walks you forward.  Again, pretty standard.  You can parry with a small parry window.  Again, pretty standard.

But, your attacks can actually walk you just passed an enemy, to the point you can’t parry them.  And parries are essential for fighting some enemies, at least if you want to come out unscathed.  Despite the long sweep of the swords that you siung from behind you, your hitbox is only forward.  Meaning you can also walk yourself passed your ability to hit your enemies.  You can’t turn around short enough to hit them, meaning you have to dodge out of the area and then turn around, and for some enemies, you cannot do this without getting hit.

The first true boss has a knife throw spread, but the space between them matches your dodge.  So, you dodge from one knife and get hit by the next.  And you can’t control dodge distance.  You can’t double jump either.

These are things that the game could have ironed out if they want a proper tough-but-fair game.  Because it’s not fair, you need to heal, and healing requires you to use the same resource you use for magic.

They also build a world, and then keep adding things to the world.

The primary story involves the Sculptor that created seemingly living beings made from clay, along with small amounts of bone dust and ichor.  Among his creations are the Pristines, the greatest of his creations.  Most of his other creations have been corrupted.  And you go about destroying them.  The rest of the mechanics are then fostered on in really obtuse ways.

In contrast to Dark Souls, they explain the Dark Sign in the introduction, and provide a consist framework to build upon.  This is why the Story Breadcrumbs works, as it has a basis that is consistently built upon.  That’s why you can have story built from item descriptions, and offhand comments.

Moonscars is a situation where Less is More.  It could have been about the Prestines clinging to their failing Humanity.  But, it’s called Moonscars, and Moon Hunger, and Moon Moon.  And not the slightest reason why the moon is the focus.  Not the slightest reason why the sun is never spoken of.

Bone dust is your primary pick up, which you use to purchase spells and items. You get Ichor GLANDS, because?.. they wanted another drop?  But, you also regenerate Ichor from attacks.  This is what you use for spells and healing.  Not from defeating enemies?

When you strip all of the obiter, you do have a truly wonderful game beneath it.

11/17/23: Some Switch pre-black Friday Best Buy promos! This morning, I took a peek at their online deals. There, I purchased Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope Cosmic Edition and Crash Bandicoot 4. They were $15 and $20 each. After work, I went to pick them up in store. Obviously, I had to browse their games. There I got, Moonscars and Elderand at $20 each and Omori at $25. There's some more deals too, on other popular games, but these sub $25 games are still decent. Good luck on your own personal hunt for deals.
