I haven't played it (yet, it's in my extensive backlog) and I don't think it's exactly the same, but have you checked out Slay the Princess?

God I hope the game turns out amazing.
I've never actually played through AW1 on Nightmare as I was afraid the challenge would be unfun, but maybe I will in the future based on your testimony. Though I find it increasingly hard to go back and replay games these days with the size of my backlog...
How much of AW2 do you remember? I strongly suggest starting over so you have everything fresh in your forebrain - it's a game that wants you to pay attention to detail. Same reason I advocated for playing only it in the other thread and not both in parallel. Though you seem to have an impressive capacity for keeping track of multiple story-games at once (something I can't even begin to relate to) so your mileage may vary.
Thank fuck, that's definitely one of the game's more detrimental flaws. I hope they also work on varying their quest design more, as well as mixing up the tone of the writing and acting more frequently.
I enjoyed the beautiful locations, solid combat and often great boss fights, but the game in general was too monotone for me to be truly captivated by it. Towards the end I felt worn out by it, having to mentally steel myself to even finish it. I get that the serious samurai trope is what they're going for, but while that might work in a 2-hour movie it becomes incredibly one-note over a 50-hour game. Kenji alone is not enough to break up the flow with some variety. Especially with the gameplay being very repetitive too - so many missions are simple walk-and-talk, ride-horse-and-talk and go-to-spot-kill-mongols.
They all must go. You wouldn't even believe the loss of revenue Nintendo suffers from the mere existence of SNES emulators. Money is being stolen right out of their pockets. Experts say they might never financially recover. ^[citation ^needed]
I'll echo this, and I'll also say that for me personally the story of AW2 kind of demands focus and I myself would not be able to take it in properly if I was splitting attention - particularly splitting it with its predecessor and having to keep track of what happens in each timeline separately.
It's just a bug.
They should honestly just sell their spot to Andretti at this point.
It's been attempted before with other game engines (like DA: O) but maybe this time it'll happen. Though I hate to be a negative Nancy but don't hold your breath with these fan conversions - they're huge undertakings. Skyblivion actually looks like it might happen, but it's exceedingly rare.
I was waiting for the original poster to repost it here, but if they aren't then I will since this photo definitely belongs here.

Gonna have to wait until a legal pro weighs in on this. Sounds like it could potentially be a pretty impactful ruling.
