Not surprised, but very sad to see them go.

 

My friend just told me about passar battaglia [from Italian, "to dodge the fight"]. The former rule that a pawn could evade capture by an opposing pawn by its initial two-square advance, in contrast to the en passant rule. Passar battaglia remained the practice in several parts of Europe long after en passant was introduced, and it was not completely abandoned until 1880 when Italy adopted the en passant rule.

What sort of backwards ass rule is this?

Oh yeah, I'm not saying it's objectively bad. I have chronic migraines and trying to play it would make them worse, so it literally made my head hurt.

If only the art style didn't make my head hurt

Off the top of my head, Hades, Outer Wilds, most Halos, Zelda of course, Alan Wake. I'm sure I'm forgetting something, oh well

I think I have to agree with you. The music on that last run was sooo good. I don't know if I've ever been more excited in a game before; my heart must've been doing 140bpm
