so the moral of the story is to never let your AIs be horny on main




...I think. That’s about where I stopped trying to pay attention and let the knife-yowls and neon bears just kind of wash over me

I mean on a technical level, it is? But everything else is just so... half-assed.

Incompetence is one thing, but now this has gone into active contempt for the player. What the gently caress is this game.

EDIT: Holy crap, they got Kari freakin' Wahlgren for only 3 lines? Everything about this game is a waste.

Why would you not record slightly more voice lines if you are going to be repeating them every half a minute gently caress sake

Found an interesting article about the developer of this game. Kind of explains how we go this mess.

Well that sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole in reading about game development chaos.

You'd think after dying so much he'd just eventually give up, but I guess Baldur thought it was better to rein in Hel than serve in Valhalla.

Jokatgulm is tedium.
Jokatgulm is pain.
Jokatgulm is suffering.

I still have no idea who we were supposed to like and root for. Baldur is an unsympathetic rear end in a top hat, the rest of the Aesir are backstabbing shitheads and Loki is Loki. Honestly Hel seems like the most sympathetic one since she actually wasn't the one to break the agreement and has some human flaws with the vanity thing, also her design would have been pretty cool if it wasn't so drat sexualized.

And in the end there, Thor at least was honest about what was up. He didn't make excuses, he admitted to what they did, said Baldur was worth it, and they would do it again. Sure, they kept it a secret from him, but not out of maliciousness. If the rest of the game showed that degree of effort put into it, it might have actually been... better?

You giving me the cold shoulder? How cruel.

I was kinda hoping something would come out of all the human soldiers looking like Baldur to me, but of course I was being Too Hopeful.

I’m glad for your sake this game wasn’t longer because wow, what a bland slog.

Extremely grim and evil.
Did a single story scene in this game have a soundtrack?

I was gonna make a joke and link the death theme saying it's the only track you need to hear, but I can't find it on youtube and all the videos specifically of dying were made with a camcorder.
