Backlog Resolution: Septerra Core Part 3
0Warning: this episode contains screen flashes to simulate lightning which might be an issue for photosensitive viewers.
After a bit of statue restoration work and exploring the local catacombs, Maya and her team manage to just barely show up too late to warn the Holy Guard of their impending doom. It doesn't speak well for their leader Bowman that she then proceeds to absolutely demolish the bounty hunter that killed him twice over.
Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator is a console style role playing game released in 1999 by Valkyrie Studios and Monolith Productions. Developed in the late 90s and likely inspired by games like Chrono Trigger and the Final Fantasy series, the game tells the story of Maya as she works with her allies to save the clockwork world of Septerra. With game systems that will be second nature for many JRPG fans and the option for full mouse control, Septerra Core brought the experience of console RPGs to the PC at a time when that wasn't so common as it is today. It might not be an all-time great, but it's certainly interesting and worth a look.
