Comment on Here's why Inscryption is a good game

I only played through the first stage of the game before putting it aside. Thanks for reminding me that I ought to pick it up again and continue.
(Nitpick: Unique doesn’t have degrees. A thing can be very, very unusual, or it can be unique if nothing else like it exists.)
All I can say is you’re missing out… I can see that it’s a type of game that may not be for everybody, but it is honestly probably the most unusual game I have ever played in my life and I’m enjoying it a lot.
It just made me pick a file from my hard drive, made me a card based on it, and then told me if I let that card die, it’s going to delete that file. This game is nuts man.
As I understand it all of daniel mullins’ games have layers like inscryption, to put it mildly. I’d check them out when you finish inscryption if you’ve enjoyed it
lol… I had a feeling it would take some drastic turns. That’s great. No more spoilers, please. I do intend to get back to it.
In case you’re not familiar with it, Doki Doki Literature Club has some surprises, too. I enjoyed it even though visual novels are usually not my jam.
Yeah. That one was on my list to play but I haven’t checked it out yet, I have heard similar things about it.

Americans often incorrectly ascribe degrees to “unique.” At this point it’s so baked into all of their dialects that it’s hard for me to keep calling it wrong.

TIL.
www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/unique definition 3 includes examples like “very unique” and “fairly unique.” So it’s incorrect only if you assume that American usage is wrong and British usage is right, I guess. According to the Cambridge Dictionary I think you are right about how it’s used in British English.
