You might hope, when getting a spiritual successor to the beloved role-playing game Planescape: Torment, that it would have many, many words. You would be correct.
Although thereās still no final release date for Torment: Tides of Numenera, the Planescape successor that was Kickstarted back in March of 2013, the game did enter Early Access last week.
