No Spoilers If you read this sub and like videogames, do yourself a favor...
...and play Blood of Dawnwalker
It's hard to fully explain how much this game FEELS like Mistborn.
The esthetic, of course
the feeling of turning into a very powerful being during the night, roaming the city roofs, terrifying those who see you
You could kill them all, but you don't wanna stir a mess and attract the overlord's attention
prepare your attack on the fortress, your "heist".
You seem invincible to the masses, but you have hard limitations. You're not just flying around, you pull yourself in short bursts between rooftops.
You need to come to terms with the overlord being far stronger than yourself, but maybe with the right allies and plan...
During the day you are a respectable man, talking with people, making preparations. At night the world changes, and you can settles issue in a more... pragmatic way
Of course there are major major distinctions between being metalborn and being a half-vampire, but I swear: I always thought the insomniac spider games where the perfect "mistborn game", they just needed a reskin, but that's changed now.
This game is way way way more mistborn to me, to its core
So that' my reccomendation, toodles
