Just started playing Hyper Light Drifter. The intro has me hooked.

Don't read any guides or hints until you get really stuck. There are always several options, if you hit a wall, go somewhere else. Have fun!

Oh yeah, the game's just awesome. The premise of it is also quite significant because the lead designer of HLD is suffering from a very severe heart disease, so the game feels like a highly emphatic personal experience

That's a really beautiful trailer. However I don't understand what is happening in most of it :D

I was ready for this to be an awesome narrative RPG. And then, it drops and its just an awesome game with no narrative, so you have to make it up as you go along.

The trailer is like the rest of the game. There is no explanation, no narration.

Late comment, I know, but the game actually does have narration, just very well hidden. The game world has its own alphabet and there are a bunch of monoliths and other things that you can find and decypher that explain what's happening.
