  1. Against all expectations, we actually solved the Sphinx’s riddle.

    Our reward? Being told to find an emerald, and I haven’t the faintest idea where to find one 🤷‍♀️

  3. The trail leads inside the Pillar of Jor. First, however, there’s a Sphinx with a (second) riddle.

    I haven’t the faintest idea what the answer is—or how I’m supposed to find it.

  5. Good news: We finally found our missing star witness.

    Bad news: he saw an invisible, smoking man enter the apparently impenetrable Pillar of Jor.

    So naturally, we’re going in after him. 🔔

    Oh, and please don't mind the Eldritch Horror.

  12. The exploded tea shop has given up its clues, but its owner has vanished. The mysterious person in yellow led us into the City Below—only to leave us with a hat.

    Time to see if we can make sense of any of this. 🤠

  14. We were supposed to be investigating a tea shop. Instead, I tried squeezing through a pipe and got us trapped in the City Below.

    Snell, loyal goblin friend that he is, followed me. ☺️

  16. Commencé Esoteric Ebb et comme dans Disco Elysium je suis mort dans les premières minutes, digéré par un cube

  17. Going live with Esoteric Ebb! 🔔

    It’s my first playthrough, I’m a cleric, and apparently my six ability scores all have opinions. This can only end sensibly.

  19. Esoteric Ebb fonde le meccaniche di Disco Elysium con l'impalcatura di D&D. In questo GDR politico, vestiremo i panni di un chierico incaricato di indagare sulle intenzioni di voto nella città di Norvik. Un’opera focalizzata sul peso delle scelte ideologiche. #EsotericEbb #IndieGame

  20. I bought around 5 games with the steam sale going on. Lot of "freedom of choice" type games. One had been on my wishlist for years and was 90%.

    First time hearing about Esoteric Ebb, but really enjoying it. I had to do a save roll so I didn't make a stupid joke to an NPC. I also got into a staring contest with a Kobold.

  21. Just saw the credits roll on #EsotericEbb and what a wonderful game that was! Ngl, a beautiful dialogue right at the end also caused some tears in my eyes ("what was the prayer").

    I can really nothing but recommend playing it if you enjoy RPGs *without* constant fighting and instead a ton of talking with amazing characters, plus an interesting world.

  24. J'en ai pas parlé beaucoup mais je dirai jamais assez tout le bien que je pense de Esoteric Ebb.
    Je peux aussi dire beaucoup de bien de Scriptorium (par les dev de Inkulinati) qui permet de faire des memes dessiné bien plus vite et de façon plus satisfaisante qu'en dessinant réellement et de façon bien plus vertueuse qu'en demandant à tchatgépété

  25. Bon vrai fini #esotericEbb (jeu vidéo disxo elysum like), c'était cool, encore plus jdr que disco elysum.

    Faudra que je refasse quand il sortira en français car y a beaucoup de texte et en anglais j'étais tenter de.passer souvent. Et j'ai débloqué que 50% des succès donc je pense que j'ai pas mal à découvrir encore.

  26. Nel panorama videoludico, quattro sviluppatori solitari sfidano i budget faraonici. Con design sperimentale, creano progetti che superano le mega-produzioni per coesione meccanica, ignorando le scuse logistiche.

  27. A Glimpse Into the Vault: Esoteric Ebb

    Video games owe a lot to tabletop roleplaying games, with mechanics, terminology, and tropes all being borrowed during the 1980s and 1990s. For obvious reasons, though, the two media drifted, and even video games calling themselves roleplaying games have little to do with their forbears, given both the capabilities of digital games in terms of graphics and gameplay as well as their limitations in terms of breadth and story. All this to say, when I see a claim that a video game is able to capture some of the feel of a good tabletop session, I perk up. This was the case with Esoteric Ebb. Esoteric Ebb is not the first video game I’ve seen making this claim; we covered Wildermyth a ways back, and I appreciated the way that game tried to incorporate emergent storytelling and feel more like a sandbox than other games in the tactical RPG genre. Esoteric Ebb is perhaps not as different as Wildermyth; it’s built strongly around the mechanics and tropes of another (admittedly very good) video game. However, its writing and the understanding of the TTRPG medium that that writing demonstrates still end up making Esoteric Ebb, in my view at least, a must-play. […]

  28. So, in other news, I played Esoteric Ebb over the last week or so.
    I thought it was good, but not as good as Disco Elysium, which I'm on record as thinking is the best (computer) RPG ever made. This is relevant because Esoteric Ebb is very open about being influenced by the latter, and by the most philosophical of the late-90s/early2000s D&D video games, Planescape: Torment - broadly, it's approximately D&D 5e mechanics and a homebrew setting with metacommentary on D&D tropes (some of which as well worn as the fact that Enchantment is the most overtly evil school of magic, some of which becomes a bit overly postmodern for me), with DE's "your attributes speak to you", "you can internalise thoughts for bonuses", "politics is everywhere" and general approach to time passing and interactions.
    Interestingly, the lone dev does *not* do 5e combat straight - it's a sort of fusion of DE's one combat encounter ("make choices in the same mode as everything else, but with higher stakes") and D&D initiative order and to-hit mechanics. What I find a little irritating about reviews of EE is how they call this innovative, when it's not even innovative for *tabletop* RPGs - there's plenty of systems which don't do D&D's turn-based mechanical approach to combat (including games where combat can be a single die roll, just like anything else, if it's not particularly important to the flow of the game).
    And, I guess, broadly, this might also be why I'm generally not as incredibly enthusiastic about EE as reviewers seem to be - it's well-written, there's parts that are even quite effecting (but nothing as good as the best of DE)... but the fantasy-kitchen sink setting and the general "D&D wackiness" of it really detracts from the focus that made DE a truly excellent game.

  30. Ich hab Esoteric Ebb gerade durchgespielt. Tolles Spiel mit tollen Twists! Viel zu lesen und nachzudenken.

    Definitiv wert mehrere Runs zu machen. Beim Ersten hab ich mich einfach treiben lassen und auch nicht alle Quests gelöst.

    Snell ist einfach der beste Buddy!

    Wer sowas wie Disco Elysium, oder auch Planescape Torment mag, sollte sich das definitiv anschauen! Hoffe da kommen noch mehr Spiele, wie im letzten Dialog angedeutet.

  33. I never thought I'd get that Disco Elysium vibe again, but then I started playing Esoteric Ebb.

    I am so happy.
