i can respect wanting the game to end with possum springs in flames. gregg and angus want nothing more than to leave as soon as they possibly can, it's heavily implied that your homeless buddy kills himself when the city council makes it clear they don't want him in their town, everyone is just in general kind of miserable

He was killed by the cult, they make that pretty clear.

Cats have to be taught to do that iirc. It's a thing they do in the wild to prevent predators from being able to find their droppings, they won't do it if they aren't taught how to.

The dirty old gamer came 'round valve HQ
To demand some new games to which he could view.

"Show me the games, the dirty, the lewd!
I want to see that girl in the nude!"

Gaben complied, though meek, and demurred,
"My goodness, my gracious, how awful absurd!"

"To think my small platform be filled with lewd games,
For perverts! My word! And shared all the same!"

"The breasts, oh, the asses!" The gamer exclaimed,
"My dick is erect, Lord Gaben be praised!"

I do prefer dynamic characters to static ones.

His relationship with Rinoa is 100% abusive toxic poo poo though. Its exactly the kind of example you DON'T want to set for teenagers.


I have no problem with the ellipses as it is, I'm used to that kinda poo poo in anime.

But stuff like Irvine going like "Hey Squall, Rinoa is gonna die!" and Squall is like "lol she's dumb"

That's... not good.

Yeah their relationship is legitimately awful and it's one of the few bad things about the game.

I would like to know more about this toxic Squall x Rinoa business

I haven't played the game in forever so I may be wrong but there's a real sudden shift in disc 3 where squall falls in love with Riona after she's been taken over by ulticima, even though up until that point he's just been a belligerent dick. It's a very odd shift that happens like 2/3 of the way through the story and it isn't really built up at all iirc.

It just needed to be built up more in the lead-up, I think.

The other thing that's bad about the game is the ending

Don't forget the fact that Irving didn't forget, he just didn't mention it because he didn't think it was important

This actually makes his inability to shoot her make sense, but also calls into question why he didn't tell Squall this in the tower.

So Bane is meant to be like, a joke villain right? I’ve never seen the third one but I can’t imagine that voice is meant to be used in any serious capacity

Bane is one of Batman's most dangerous and competent villains. Tom Hardy just does a voice because of the mask.

I think someone should make a game where you play as an NPC that's slowly gaining independence.

Like, you you slowly have to figure out how to do things other than your programmed routine, learn how to say things other than your canned responses, cope with the reality that all of your friends and families are automatons and the only other sentient creatures are off fighting existential evils.

doki doki literature club's big meta gimmick isn't exactly even unique among vns, though its popularity might've contributed to the existing example of the same gimmick getting translated into english

I mean I've played Irisu Syndrome and Kimi to Kanojo to Kanojo no Koi, both games which tackle the same poo poo in similar ways (I'd argue that Kimi does it betterthan DDLC) but I really enjoyed the writing in DDLC enough to rank it as one of my favorites from last year.
