So, I've figured out the gist of things to a bare minimum. I've been reincarnated by a god type thingy, and they've given me a videogame like system. How generous..
Although! There is one oddity here and that is the fact...that there is no XP! No level or XP counter. Maybe I need a skill or talent to see it? It wouldn't make sense for there not to be one. Anyways! For now how about we look to see if these points are spendable..erm..How do I spend them you ask? STARE VERY HARD!
I kid, but it's similar to doing that. I have to stare AND think. Ugh. But anyways, I'm offloading all 10 Stat points into strength, I'll definitely be needing it..
Next up is skills...lets look at the skill shop!
Blip!
[Skill Store]

Hey, putting aside those first four things, what the fuck is with the last one. Question marks? That's new, although technically everything is new. I...I shouldn't buy anything now, I might fuck things up royally. Instead lets leave this cave.
I stood up. No, not really actually, I can't stand up fully. I have to half crouch in order to really move around, but regardless I start golluming my way towards the light down the cave tunnel, and what do you know? Its a forest! Of course.
Well, it feels different from an actual forest, the ground is pretty clear and doesn't really have leaves or twigs on it. It mostly has just rocks, branches or small bits of shrubbery. Is this an artists interpretation of a forest or something?
Well, without anything else to do I start walking forward in a directly straight line. Don't wanna just wander aimlessly you know! Pick a direct and stick to it, walking in circles and non linear directions gets you lost quicker than anything.
Small update, it feels like I've been walking for hours and nothing has changed much. The sun hasn't even moved and I feel like I've walked 10 miles!
"KYYYAK!" A shrill screech let out and to the left of me, about 35 feet away I see 3 little green skinned fellas with bald heads, pointed ears, long noses and loincloths. Goblins.
