The other day I was wondering if it would be less tedious and harder for me to get burnt out reading an LP of the game rather than playing it. I didn't even know this thread existed.

I might jump back into this thread when it hits episode 3 because somewhere in there is where I got burnt out.

The thing with this game is that it's more a deconstruction of classic mystery. It takes the usual setups (locked room, isolated island mansion) and has Beatrice make a joke of them.

But of course a witch turning into butterflies and entering through the keyhole doesn't contradict any of those things :).

This is what I mean by Beatrix making a joke of everything.

Beatrice clearly doesn't give a gently caress anymore, with Battler she deigned to play mind games and try to convince him with at least a bit of effort, but now she's just "Say I'm a witch or I'll make you eat your daughter". For shame, Beatrice.

She just wants subjugation. To Rosa, Maria is the most precious part of her life, so just forcing her to eat Maria would undoubtedly show that Beatrice owns her for good. But with Battler, he's like a drat roach that keeps coming back, which he can only do because of the strength of his beliefs. The only way Beatrice can own him would be to break down all of his beliefs, which is why she needs the "game".
