So I just played the Pristine Cut and I wanna ramble
Spoilers under cut especially for Prison3r...
Ugh I love Prison3r (aka the Cage) I think she's my favourite princess I think mainly because the actions I took as TLQ was the closest to what I would've done if I was actually put in that position and also because she really reminds me of myself.
Also I played this route with the variation of Broken along for the ride LOL uh and he's not really annoying in this route (...Skeptic on the other hand) and his empathy for the Cage and his comments about resonating with her was just beautifully poignant in a way to me.
Also kinda funny and touching that we left the urh "cabin" with her head in our hands as her body pulled us up to the exit LOL
I've always loved the prisoner a lot in the original game maybe because her guardedness and kinda sucky communication skills reminds me a lot of myself. I want to trust others but I always put a guard up but also I suck at communicating (because of trust issues) and get angry at myself and others when I fail at communicating my need for help and they don't get it.
The Cage just breaking down and giving up felt just like me when I felt like nobody would get it - it sucked, it felt like nothing mattered, that I was doomed to have no control over life and I just gave up and started to detach myself from everything. Nobody understood and I failed at doing something as simple as asking for help and I was angry at both myself and the world.
Unfortunately I didn't start with her as my first princess in the run I did so I'm not sure what she's like yet if I meet her in the heart but I'll probably try that next.
Anyways love love the new content - Sp3ctre is also amazing but I think I'll leave it here for now.
