- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

CrossCode has some of the funnest and most satisfying mechanics of all time for me, and seeing that same kind of slick combat and use of powers for exploration seems like they kept everything that made it so fantastic while creating something new that's dripping with style.
Since CrossCode also had one of the most emotionally effective uses of story pacing for me as well (and because I loved Lea's limited access to a full vocabulary and the excitement when Sergey would break his way through the communication system so she can access a new word), I'm very curious what it's going to be like with a protagonist that speaks in full.
