This latest chapter marks a stark break in the present action. As I have written TLL, I have had a nagging feeling. My whole goal is to recreate a FromSoftware title in book form. Here's what I know about FromSoftware titles: - They tell you a lot about their worlds. - They don't organize that information for you whatsoever. - They are masters of making a small world feel gigantic. - They really allow for different builds to be viable. - Your NPC companions have as mysterious of Backgrounds as you do. What I know about writing stories: - I cannot rely on excellent fighting mechanics to entertain during stretches of world-building narrative. - Books can't offer multiple save files, allowing the audience to experience the full breadth of mechanics. - Books can have many protagonists. What I know about The Last Lowlander: - We are just getting started. - I have payoffs planned for all this build-up. - You're going to love them! Best, Dylan Davis
