I’ve been playing Astral Chain, the latest Platinum Games/Nintendo joint. You play as a nineteen-year-old anime cop (wearing hot pants if female, thanks Japan) who has control over otherworldly creatures called Legions. Only people attuned to this alternate dimension can see them. It’s a good way of getting around having the NPCs freak out whenever you’re using one. But one of your Legions is a mountable wolf. Riding my invisible good boy isn’t exactly inconspicuous, but I guess the people in the year 2078 have bigger issues than seemingly floating cops.
