Aegis does have one overriding directive though: obey whatever the queen commands.

For some reason you’re protecting her, and for some reason you can also speak and sense, along with having a bit of free will. You play as Aegis, a dancer automat (steampunk robot), in the queen’s court. We’ll get there in a moment, but let’s start from the beginning. Could I possibly connect with this one given my low enthusiasm for Soulslikes? When trying out Steelrising in a closed test, I was somewhat taken aback to find out it was a Soulslike game, punishing your missteps and rewarding your patient observations. The team has yet again outdone themselves in finding an original setting and premise, but I was surprised by my first experience with the game. Now we come to the latest game from Spiders, Steelrising. Sure, there was plenty of what the kids call “euro-jank” to it, and some of the repetition (especially the same throne room in each leader location) could get old, but it was fun to play with a riveting narrative and environment. The reason it grabbed me? A captivating and original setting, taking a colonial world and injecting some intriguing fantasy and astonishing creatures into it. That was one of my most underrated titles in 2019, and it’s still one I can go back to after the PS5 upgrade. While it took a moment for them to do so, developer Spiders finally captured my attention when they released Greedfall.
