The state of the game and especially Dwilight reminds me of the setting in almost any post-apocalyptic game. The Souls series in particular springs to mind as we see the decay of human society and the rampancy of monsters and undead throughout the lands. Sometimes this game actually embodies the feeling of isolation and loneliness really well.
Are you playing again? Losing you was lame. Come back and bring a whole bunch of trouble makers with you.
