FiST: Forged in Shadow Torch

Such a stupid and contrived name.

The gameplay is as clumsy as the title. So it FiTS.

Ha ha... Take my updoot 👏

I think all the games that do this are annoying. We're not stupid, we can come up with an acronym for your name. It's silly, I know, but it made me not want to play FTL: faster than light for a long time.

The protagonist fight with a big mecha fist though, I don't think it is that bad of a name?

Yeah but "forged in shadow torch"? Come on.

They wanted to name it fist and went back from there. For that its bad IMO.

Forged in shadows touch

Fight in shallow trenches

Freaks in silly tales

Fart inverse serene toot

Yes, but the breakdown of the FiST acronym was very clumsily thrown together based around that concept.
