The kind of game you daydream about while at school or work because you can’t wait to come home and play some more.

I really enjoyed Absolver and was looking forward to playing that but didn't get around to it until very recently. I did enjoy it, but it ended up making me want to go back to Absolver.

Thanks for sharing this, I actually also have Absolver thanks to PS Plus (same for SIFU) and didn't know they shared game mechanics... Gonna try it, but not right away, for my sanity.

While I enjoyed Sifu, I probably enjoyed Absolver more. I also loved the mechanic of learning moves from fighting people using those moves and was somewhat disappointed they didn't have a similar mechanic in Sifu. Though it likely wouldn't have meshed well with the leveling mechanic.

I did really like the unique aging on death mechanic though. I love seeing unique ideas like that in games.
