Prismatic People: Queer Narratives Beyond Romance

We have seen quite an increase in sincere Queer representation in games in the last few years, where it once used to be absent. However, thi

my favorite moment personally:

WAIT HELP I DIDN'T KNOW YOU ALL GOT AHOLD OF THIS

[nessathewriter]

hey hey hey I’m @riiarichu ummm hello hello

I’m a big fan of endopara so I’d like to ask a few questions if ur still taking them. If not then ignore me until you decide to take them again.

Anywayyy

Did Karis die :( because if Cynte can’t save him I’ll actually cry they need to escape together…

THEYE SO CUTE and Kari’s’ voice actor makes him sound so adorable <333

I’m going to assume you know the VA’s so of you do DO YOU KNOW WHO VOICED KARIS???? I know Giovanni voiced Cynte (and he did a DAMN GOOD JOB OF IT) but I love Kari’s’ voice…

Also since Luce is dead who is he gonna be fighting in edp 3? More importantly is there gonna be a third one? I’m sure you already answered these questions if u did then please paraphrase or link the posts I’m sorry. 😞

LAST QUESTION… do you read fanfiction of the stories you help write?? I think you should, I have a buddy @frill-shark who’s making a super cute and super tragic endopara fic and I think you should check them out…

Sorry about this!!

hihi!! I'll go through these in order:

Did Karis die: that's a really great question..........

Karis's VA: Karis's VA is my good friend Phillipe Bosher! he was also in Baldur's Gate III and Lies of P!

Villain of endo3: that's also a really great question!! I've got some Ideas for sure but we haven't committed in any specific direction yet. I've got my fingers crossed that there will be a third game!

Do I read the fanfiction: not too often because I don't want to get my grubby little hands inside the fan space too much, but I have read some of frill-shark's ruling hypothesis because it's excellently written!!

[nessathewriter]

So I noticed that you’d described what you think Cynte looks like, on that note, what does Karis look like to you?

Karis been compared enough times to Wilson from House that I do kind of picture a younger Robert Sean Leonard sometimes, but overall I don't have as solid of a mental picture of him as Cynte. Karis is probably a little younger than Cynte, lankier, probably bringing an Anton Yelchin type vibe to the table?? honestly all I Know for sure is he has glasses

[riseandshinefolks]

what genre of character is this

[pencil-mint]

Forgot to post these lol

[nessathewriter]

Cynte and Karis remind me of House and Wilson from House MD. Like in my mind before Karis left, their relationship was like House and Wilson’s. did I pick up the wrong vibe? And was there any inspiration? (Sorry if this was worded weird)

okay I kind of feel like I remember posting about this somewhere, like maybe it was bsky or twitter or in the tags of something?? I dunno but House/Wilson wasn't an inspiration in a direct way, but I watched House MD a lot. like a lot. when I was like 7 or 8 years old I told my teacher it was my favorite show and my mom got a call about it LMAO and I did realize very shortly after finishing the Endo2 script that they inadvertently have a House/Wilson vibe.

all this to say, I think you never really forget your first questionable, doomed ship

[nessathewriter]

Hi hi! I hope this isn’t too weird or unwelcome, just wanted to drop in and congratulate you and the rest of the team on the phenomenal work y’all have been doing for the Endoparasitic series! I’m a brand new fan, just finished playing Endoparasitic 2 and now my art degree is in danger because it’s all I can focus on lmfao

Feeling extremely normal about Cynte, and had a blast scrolling through your blog this evening to read about him <3

hihi!! aw thanks!! it means the world to me that folks connect with it in any way <3 we're all very proud of what we've put out there. PLEASE FINISH YOUR ART DEGREE THOUGH LMAO

I published a new little game yesterday!!

hihi!! I know I mostly post about Endoparasitic/Endoparasitic 2 here but if there are any Twin Peaks fans out there, I published a Black Lodge/Red Room themed Twine game yesterday called TEN THINGS I LEARNED IN THE RED ROOM and I really like how it turned out :)

Ten Things I Learned In The Red Room by Nessa Cannon

A short, surreal Twine game

[nessathewriter]

Not a question, I just wanna say: I'm so giddy about the fact that you made Cynthe, the ruthless scientist asshole, have ONE person he really cared about. It makes him go from a pretty compelling character to a "HELL YEAH ARGARGH" character.

Also bonus gay points.

thank you!! tbh giving Cynte a boyfriend was always a huge priority of mine - "ruthless asshole with soft spot for one person" is one of my favorite tropes

[nessathewriter]

Hello Hello! I have no clue if you're answering endoparasitic questions and this is more of a joke question than anything, so if you don't want to answer it then you don't have to; Would Cynte be a big Death Note fan? And if he was, would he like L or Light more?

okay LMAO I actually rewatched the entirety of Death Note right around when I was working on the Endo 2 script during a housesitting gig I had so it was definitely fresh in my brain. I don't know if he'd be a big fan (I don't know if he's really a fan of most things lmao) but I think he'd like L more because Cynte would just loooove to be able to take anyone out based on his perception of justice

[togusso]

They should have chosen me

[nessathewriter]

Endoparasitic question if you're still taking them.

Has Karis always been wheelchair-bound or is that a more recent development? Or is that perhaps another question left intentionally open so that fans can fill in their own reasoning?

I am still taking Endoparasitic questions!! but I can't answer this one quite yet, so sorry!!
