First Impressions: Bastion

Another pickup during the Steam holiday sale and also another role playing game. This one though is a much more traditional run around with a sword and stab monsters type of game. It does have one really interesting feature though, it's narrated, constantly as you're playing, not just in cutscenes. As you play the things you do are described by the narrator and it's really interesting how many circumstances they've accounted for. I was first surprised by it when I first discovered that some of the scenery was destructible if you smashed it with your hammer. I ended up going around the room smashing things and then the narrator said "The kid just rages for a while". I've not played much yet but I look forward to exploring this one some more.
