The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!

Today (16th of April) is my birthday! So we’re discussing my favorite game of all time (tied with Outer Wilds): Journey

What aspects do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? What are your favorite experiences in the game? Are there other games that gave you similar feelings? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let’s get the conversation going!

If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

Opening the pause menu will cause the traveler to immediately sit down, according to my sister who played the game religiously for a while, this is the equivalent to “BRB” among people who play a lot.

Each secret you find will add embroidery to the clothing of the traveller, meaning players can tell which one should likely be showing the other around, as well whether someone is a first-timer.

Sticking together is also not that important. The game will match you with a new player if you get separated.

People who play it more than once typically do it to show new players around, that’s where the value of repeat playthroughs comes from.

It was my understanding that the embroidery/pattern changes were based on how many times you had completed the game, but your point stands that it’s easy to tell a first timer

You’re right, I recalled the pattern being more complex and showing the progress towards the white robe, but I’m misremembering. The patter simply show how many times someone has completed the game, up to three times.
