Wisdom. I was playing Path of Exile last night on the PC and the two cats who sleep in bed with me at night both came to bug me, and I realized it was almost 1:30am and they were telling me to go to bed :3:

Futaba's not autistic and she's also a year younger than the protagonist. And uhh, the latter is definitely not presented as a good thing you're suppose to approve of, but to show just how vile Kamoshida's view of other people are, such as his victims, are. That's not literally Shiho but his twisted mental image of her given form.

EDIT: Also I don't think the protag views Futaba as a little sister, since they literally just met and have no relatiion.

Futaba absolutely reads as autistic to me and the English VA has said she views her as and played her as autistic, I think it's an entirely reasonable enterpretation, although this being Persona I assume she will eventually grow out of being autistic and become a salarywoman/doting wife

I have not finished P5R (I'm in Royal's bonus content) and Futaba absolutely reads as being on the spectrum.

The writing in P5 is hosed and lots of parts in it are skeevy as hell, plus it completely sabotages its own themes constantly. But it's still overwhelmingly the most fun of the persona games to actually play and the aesthetics and music kick rear end. And despite that extremely lovely gag with the two gay dudes, it's waaaaaaay less homophobic than p4

The remake of p3 is gonna be so much better than it though and I can't wait.

And it's dark and there is nobody driving And something has got to give

SMT chat is making me realize that I only ever got the neutral ending of Strange Journey, because I figured I'd get it over with and then get the cool endings, and then I never felt like replaying it

Should probably do penance by... idk, playing more SMT

On the other hand SH2 showed that they still know how to make decent dungeons, which I thought was an art they completely lost at some point after Strange Journey

I believe the SH2 team is mostly made of people from Strange Journey and TMS (I also liked TMS dungeons) I haven’t looked at who’s on the P3 remake team.

It was the combat that I had to tap out of, maybe it gets depth later on, but I kept falling asleep.

P3 is the best of the 3 because it has the least writing; I have a feeling they will manage to bring it to the 4 and 5 levels for the remake.

Yeah that was the one I specifically pointed out being correct (as I assume that's what that was about).

I mean I get why you say that, but the actual plot is that she's just really traumatized from everyone telling her she caused her mother's suicide and not that she's autistic. She just can't handle being around other people as a result. There's a reason why facing her trauma helped her with that.

Anyways, I don't think even an RPG would go so far as to claim that trauma causes autism. I hope. No one tell me if an RPG did. I assume YIIK 2 would have if anyone had ever liked the original.
