Watched some partial playthroughs. This looks pretty amazing.

Just enjoy the fleeting halcyon days here before it gets ruined by Reddit and Tumblr.

I'm pleased to see they nailed the 12V car batteries can electrocute you trope.

In fairness i think I've done all of those dances before, while smashed at a concert

Yeah this is like everybody's first high school dance.

I had even more abstract moves than that.

I think the cult/supernatural element and maybe the use of anthropomorphic characters might be a useful buffer to keep some of the relevant and real subject matter and themes of the game from hitting too close to home.

Sort of like a reverse "suspension of disbelief". Because without being preachy this game hit some pretty difficult points hard. Especially when you have things like practically a generation of people being discarded and left behind like worthless trash.

Also if you ever had a friend who was seriously poor or just trying to get by under really tough circumstances Lori causes some really high-grade "feels".

I assume that poster thinks it will ruin a game about being an outcast, growing up, fitting in, and figuring out what you're all about to discuss this stuff. Which is silly.

Oh believe me I really hope that I'm completely wrong about some of my prognostications here, because I don't think we've really seen a game quite like NITW before.

I really did not like the last act of the game. Like, at all. What the hell were they thinking... jeez.

anime was right posted:

the murdering of those with families trying to make a decent living via the only methods they are capable in a cruel society in the game Axelust Murderking is just compared to the atrocity that is messing up someone's pots and pans in the evil simulator known only as Night in the Woods.
