That’s all the info the player is given to start the game, but it takes just the first few minutes to get up to speed.

The Kid must find his way to the Bastion. The Kid is alone, save for the voice of The Stranger. Instead, I’ll give just a few simple bullet points. I’m not going to do that here, because to do so undermines the discovery and narrative flow of the game that the designers worked so hard to create. This is the point in the review where, typically, I would guide the reader through the first few minutes of the game and give a quick breakdown of the plot. The end result was a game that was wholly satisfying, even if the entire experience was less than eight hours long. For me, Bastion is a revelation: a game with deceptively simple gameplay, designed with style in mind, from the environments to the game world to this title’s signature narration. And though Bastion is an action RPG in a style that cribs liberally from The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past, my main enjoyment of the game came not from hammering enemies, but from the haphazard and charming world that sprung to life beneath The Kid’s footfalls. With each movement, the world of Caeldonia grows and builds around The Kid. The player’s avatar (an unnamed, white-haired boy simply referred to as “The Kid”) gets up and moves around, and the world forms up around him and under his feet. If you’re a Bastion main, let us know below how you’re holding up? Are you feeling well, do you have someone close you can talk to? Stay safe, buddy.Bastion begins the way more games should begin: with the player uncertain of the world he or she has just stepped into. Sure, you could use this opportunity to learn some new characters, but that sounds like work to be honest and who has time for that? Look, all sarcasm and joking aside, with little to no word on when Bastion will be coming back, you’ve got to feel for those one-tricks who just wanna bust out their turret and go ham in quick matches. my brain is trying to keep my alive but my body gave up by now. Others have turned to journaling to express their desperation like Enforcer_XD: “Day 5.

Won't be reinstalling even if/when he's added back.” Indeed, for all the genuine hardship Overwatch 2 players have had to undergo, such as an awful battle pass and phone verification system, it must suck to have your beloved main character removed.

Some bravely believe they can live a life without Bastion, in spite of their life leading them to become commenters on the Bastion subreddit. Maybe it's time to swap out your tank treads for Kunai? Watch the Kiriko animated short here! Five days isn’t even really that long a stretch, but such is the connection between certain Bastion buds on the internet, striking out at others like Sickboy on his epic heroin comedown in Trainspotting. “Should it really take 5+ days to fix an ultimate?” writes r/BastionMains user HyperBastiorean, lashing out at Blizzard for taking so long to fix their favourite hero. The character, a lovable robot who could turn into a rocket-spewing killing machine with their ultimate ability, was ripped from the game due to an easy-to-do and super overpowered bug, leaving the Bastion mains in a kind of depressive limbo. Bastion mains are currently suffering some deep, dark sadness as a result of their best boy being removed from Overwatch 2.
