what's your opinion on playing Sunless Skies without having played/knowing much about Fallen London or Sunless Seas? I used to play FL but didn't get very deep into it, and I don't really have time to return to it... but Skies looks like it's SO my aesthetic and I wanna stick my face in it
It feels very VERY welcoming for new players as a standalone game.
It has much less references to fallen London than sunless sea. At first when I played the beta I felt a bit disappointed from this but I started played with the mindset of “this is a game on its own. Only a possible future for fallen London” and it made it mcmuch more enjoyable :D
I’d say go for it! Everything is explained enough that you don’t need the lore background and the references to FL/Ssea are simple enough to get just by knowing a little about them
