I just got done playing Hyperlight Drifter. I really did enjoy playing it but the story still confuses me even after beating it.
What is the story of this game? From what I can muster, you play as a drifter basically trying to finish whatever was started eons ago. However... just what is a "drifter" and why you in particular?
The one thing I dislike about these indie games sometimes is that they never flesh out the finer details of their story!
Help me understand. Who is the drifter you play as and who exactly is the "pink drifter"?
and what is the thing you fight at the end and why?
The Drifter is dying from an illness caused by a black amorphous monstrosity, and it's trying to take over the world. It killed multiple titan beasts and threatens to kill everyone. The pink drifter is someone you were a rival with I guess? anyway when you kill the final boss you get cured of your sickness, but you kinda die anyway because of some kind of death sequence that collapses the cave, and you were in bad shape as it is. But you do save the world.
