I wonder if the urine armor might be a graphical glitch - like it isn't loading the texture properly or something. I've known other games to go, e.g., bright pink for such a reason.

This game doesn't seem totally awful and some of the ideas seem like they'd be an improvement over Betrayal if competently implemented (though they mostly seem actively sabotaged by other elements of the design), but...man, there sure seems to be a lot less narrative and damned if I am retaining almost any of what's there. I definitely see why it's not nearly as well regarded.

Re narrative, like...one of the things that really struck me about Betrayal was that there was tons of text about all sorts of stuff in the game, be that item descriptions, party interactions, preludes to combats, all sorts of miscellaneous interactions in inns and random houses and such. In Antara, too, it was just kinda dumb a lot of the time. Return...maybe it's the move to voice acting, but it feels like there's almost none of that and what's there is mostly directly involved with the very basic main plot being told and the occasional minor sidequest.
