A lot of fans who are way way too into it are going to hate the ending because it's highly possible to read it as a commentary on them shown in a poor light.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Entrain Odyssey V: Beynd the Myth comes out in, what, two days? I think the last one I played was 3, it had the airship element. Excited to jump back in. Thinkin' 'bout those maps.

Like, specifically the folks who would've gotten way too into the DR1 LP? Because some of that was a turn off when I finally got around to reading the first game.

At the time the LP was the only way to see the game in English and people went kind of nuts, especially after the LP forum got put behind the paywall.

The thread was a magnet for idiots who would buy an account, make one horrible weeaboo post, and get instantly banned. The greater internet DR community got extremely mad about this.

DR1 LP on SA was purely a great magical ride. :allears:

Just gotta keep walking down that road.
That LP is probably what we have to thank for DR getting localized, it became such a viral thing. The thread had over 14 million views.

Spergs got obsessed with some loving terrible Japanese visual-novel thing that some guy in the LP forum here was playing through and translating at the same time and the thread went from being publicly available to needing a forums account.

i think it's basically phoenix wright but with highschool teens that all want to gently caress each other so it's like candy to the people who like that sort of thing
