yuletide | 2022 Yuletide Promo Post

Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!

Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!

Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

NEW: We've made a register! There is now a searchable Google spreadsheet index of the canons promoted on this post. Go ahead and add yours or any you see that are missing! We hope this helps connect people up with canons of interest to them.

This is at your discretion and is not expected to be comprehensive

Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):

- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

Title: Code Vein

Media: Video Game

Approx length: HowLongToBeat says about 50 hours, and my initial playthrough was about that length too.

Where to find it: It's available for the Playstation 4, XBox One, and Steam.

What is it, in summary?: Code Vein is a post-apocalyptic action RPG, and a rather difficult one at that, and while it takes place in the same universe as the God Eater series, you don't need to be familiar with God Eater to enjoy Code Vein. You play as an amnesic protagonist who bands with other revenants - humans who died and were revived as immortal vampiric beings - to battle the monstrous Lost and find a way to survive in a dying world.

The gameplay is difficult and the action bloody and frenetic, and there's a high emphasis on exploration. You can also have a companion join you during exploration, and each companion has their own strength and weaknesses depending on your playstyle. My personal favorite companion is Io, because I have a thing for mysterious white-haired anime girls; like the protagonist, she remembers little of her past and strives to learn more about the purpose of her existence. As mentioned above, being a Souls-like game, it's a rather difficult game, and there is a demo available if you want to get a feel for the difficulty yourself.
