Completely OFF Topic

It's been a while since I wanted to write about this game, so I figured: better late than never.

OFF is an Indie RPG with lots of surreal characters, enemies and environments.
The game was initially created in French by Mortis Ghost and Unproductive Fun Time and was translated after being well-received by the French gaming community.
You as the player are acknowledged as a puppeteer controlling the main character, "The Batter" and the characters often break the fourth wall by talking to you or referring to other aspects of the game itself.

The Batter

A random path in one of the Zones

Basically, your job is to help The Batter with carrying out his self-proclaimed task. What is his task? Purifying the world.

The Judge

"The Judge" (an intelligent and interesting cat) gives you advice and introduces you to a few new concepts.

A battle with a spectre

Throughout the game, you battle spectres and traverse through different zones, seeing the "Elsens" that live there and learning about the guardians of each zone.

It's difficult to talk about the game without spoiling it, so I won't say much about the storyline. I definitely recommend this game to any RPG lover and anyone that likes a good game that leaves you mind-blown.

My favourite character? Without a doubt:

Zacharie.
Creepy? Yes.
Amusing? A little.
He introduces himself as the random sales merchant that often occurs in practically every RPG.

The  music by "Alias Conrad Coldwood" also made the game for me. The battle theme is actually my current ringtone.

Did I turn into a screaming little fangirl after playing this game? Of course I did.
I thought it was awesome. I already played it twice properly.
I actually hope that if I ever manage to finish any of my RPG ideas, they will be as good as this game or at least near the benchmark.

Anyway, just a random dedicated blog post from a fan of the game.
If anyone is interested in downloading it, make sure you find v2.0 (or newer, in case it's been updated since this post)
I think this is the link I used: http://www.2shared.com/file/q5LfIihi/Off_translation_V_20.html
If that doesn't work, I'm sure download links are easy to find as it's a free game.

Anyway, thanks for listening to my rambling. Hope this little post makes the game even more popular.
Enjoy!
Thanks to all the people who worked on the game. I'm really glad I found it.
