    Soap bubble floating with book on the ground thing...
    Whenever you were crossing over it, those arcane lines started to form under your feet. I think you have to stand or crouch there right under where the soap bubble appears while facing the book. Like I think you're supposed to spend some time there like 10 seconds or 15 seconds "studying the book".
    If nothing happens once all the lines fill in, try looking around without moving to see if it's highlighting something on the map for you or something.
    And check the map before and after maybe. But it's definitely something you have to do by standing still right in the center of that area.
    Not certain but it's a trope-fitting guess

      I would buy it on epic if it wasn't the same store that peddles and allows NFT shovelware scams and since the game isn't published by epic so it'll be available elsewhere eventually. The Epic store makes Steam look like they have quality standards when all Steam does is ban Crypto and AI generated assets because on Epic you can even find reuploads of stolen open source games made to peddle NFTs.
      It's a shame good games get locked to a storefront that sells scammier videogames than even Steam which used to be controversial for lowering contribution standards.

      Epic pay their dev bills while it's EA, offsetting sales lost (and then some). They get to round out the rough edges without being in the spotlight and then make a big launch for 1.0 on Epic and Steam. I can see why small devs might take that deal.

Is there more story to this or cut scenes? or is this more like Fallout where there IS story but basically you just do you? Also I hope I hope there will be more work on creating an array of enemies not just similar design repeated but upgraded. They should take some more inspiration from OG doom and The Suffering. I think I preferred it at original difficulty they just should give more weapon or magical edges to be made or found. More mechanics to building, upgrading items or magic collection or enhancement almost Last of Us style would be perfect.

    I'm not too sure why it matters if it's on Steam or not for so many people, i have it, and it's really cool. I doubt it would play differently on Steam, I could understand if people didnt want to buy it because it was in early access, that would make sense to me. Some peoples loyalty to Steam amazes me

      It's good to have player choice.

    it does feel allot like remnant 2 if it was a rougelite, not sure if it will while playing it but at least from watching the gameplay thats my vibe.

    You shouldn't use your thumb to take a pulse - just FYI 😊

      As I understand it it's because the thumb has a strong enough pulse that it can give you false reading

    My best way to describe this game is a souls like destiny extraction rouguelike... Overall its a pretty solid game...
