Damn, sucks to hear. Did you play/were you a fan of bastion?

Final to the point of being over Fallout 3 to be able to play Skyrim. Similar games, and I played the living hell out of Fallout 3 so I got bored with the game style and such. Now it has been long enough to have the urge to play Skyrim.

Are you playing this on PS4? I haven't had any of the issues you're describing.

Transistor is amazing, as I hoped. I didn't know that it was a real-time strategy game with turn-based elements, so cool. Love the art direction and music too. Just a gorgeous, well realized, well executed game. Got through to the first boss last night, can't wait to play more.

I started Transistor (PS4) yesterday myself. I never played Bastion, but so far I am enjoying Transistor. I like how you can customize your skill/function layout and have it fit your playstyle. I'm not very far into it, but so far it's pretty fun.

You really should play Bastion when you're done, it's quite good IMO. I thought this would be Bastion 2.0 (which would've been fine) but it's not and it's great!

Agreed with Stark. You should look into Bastion, if you have any interest at all. I think it's a great game. I hear Supergiant brought back The Narrator in some capacity for Transistor, which is awesome; that guy's voice is great.

Bastion is PC/Xbox only right? I don't have a capable PC nor an Xbox, so unless they port it over to Playstation I might be SOL.

Speaking of Transistor, have you done any of the speed trials yet? I finished the first one, but
the second one is giving me fits. Especially since your function load out it pre-set.

The cool thing about the Narrator in this game (well, at least your sword) is that the voice comes through your controller on the PS4. Pretty awesome.

You should get this catnip, it's awesome. Yeah, the narrator guy is back, and he's basically a narrator in this one too, but not quite in the same way, but yeah he's the main voice actor.

Have an iOS device? They ported it there. It's too bad they didn't release it for Vita. That'd be a great place for it.

I have an Android device. I'll check the store and see if it's on there.
