that final conversation with her during the epilogue mean to imply that she might be Mae's grandmother?

So I'm going to be on break for two weeks in one week and I figured I'd pick up this game and play it during the holiday. If I plug 2-3 hours a day at it would I have time to finish it? Also, how tedious is the re-play when trying to unlock all the content? I'm not necessarily completionist, but I like what I've seen of the writing so I figure I'd want to try out all the given storylines, but I know that sort of stuff can often be a slog to get through.

My first play-through ran about ten hours and that was with me being pretty thorough. Should be plenty for you

Also this game is written explicitly as a modern Gothic piece and sudden abrupt endings with no real resolution is sort of one of Gothic's things.

If anyone likes Regular Car Reviews he actually liked Night in the Woods so much he did a literary analysis of it.

For me the kicker is the music, which he composed and I listened to consistently since playing the game, which I now no longer have any desire to listen to.

I'm not the sort to tell people what they should or shouldn't consume. I think there's room for appreciating something for what it is while still being cognizant that one of the people involved is a deplorable human being. I think I can still go back to NitW and play it again. But personally, I don't think I can listen to the music in the same way ever again. Unlike the rest of the game, that was mainly a product of Holowka himself.

So any suggestions towards similar sounding stuff people could point me towards and recommend would be appreciated.

i'm going to guess most of those replies are from folks who haven't played the game and have been mobilized by some angry gamer trash site

Nailed it. Bad faith trolls show up in every other topic I don't see why this would be any different.

Want to point out that none of these guys had posted in this thread before this. They always do this.

It's too bad they turned down the TV/movie deals. This "game" inasmuch as it is a "game" would work much better as either a one-shot TV show (12 30 min episodes could cover the story with minimal fat-cutting and let Mae be friends with Bea and Gregg.

A movie would be a lot fat-cutting but could still be solid.

Given the minimal and often incongruous "game" elements to the "game" it feels like that is what it should have been anyway.

in case anyone missed this the first time around:

it would make for a great series for teenagers / young adults
