Ash of Gods: Redemption

Even better than Banner Saga

I've recently got Banner Saga trilogy on sale and was so much impressed by it that I searched for similar games, and found this one... I couldn't believe there is another game, which was exactly what I was looking for. I read some reviews and expected a decent game, but instead found a real gem! In my opinion Ash of Gods exceeds Banner Saga in many aspects. The art is fantastic. The music which is composed by the same person who composed Witcher soundtrack is even better. The game world with strong Asian inspirations is interesting and in normal circumstances I would say beautiful, though because of the story events it turned into similarly hopeless place like the world of Banner Saga. You follow the story from perspective of three different characters, and every of them give quite unique experience. Choices matter and there are many implications of decisions you make, sometimes even long term ones. Of course some implications are harsh, sometimes even too much. Usually you don't expect that choosing one line of dialogue may sentence your party to death several hours later. Though truth to be told, this game is not only about good endings, and story might be told on multiple ways and this a good thing.
