Sophia is stronger than me, I could never make a joke like this

Demily: (reading game screen as Alta) "Uh, hang on. Are you the same guy I just talked to?"

Sophia: No, I'm Griffin McElroy. (reading game screen as the customer) "You are mistaken. You and I have not spoken."

Demily: You can't just be walkin' up on people and calling them Griffin McElroy, Sophia.

Sophia: Okay.

Demily: That's a slur.

Sophia: What- What should I call- What should I call 'em, then? Me from ten years ago?

(Demily works to keep herself from laughing)

Demily: If I laugh, I go to hell.

"Hades is about escaping hell but he doesn't even escape hell" I mean, are you 100% sure that's the actual story here? I feel like it's more about fixing broken and estranged relationships. You get Patroclus and Achilles back together. You get Orpheus and Euridice back together. Both romances start not as you first meeting each other, but as two broken relationships. Theseus has reached out to the man he killed and apparently made amends, to the point that they are now friends (if not lovers). I think it ending with "and then you get your parents back together, and then you get your dad's family back together" is, in fact, completely tonally consistent, even if the story starts with Zagreus going "fuck this shit I'm out."

Now, to be clear, "I don't like or want a story about fixing your shitty family" and/or "I don't think Hades does enough to deserve reconciliation with Zagreus" is a valid response! But uhhh if you look at the game where every single other side story is about fixing broken relationships (often of people who've run away from each other, including the protagonist trying to run away from his dad and his two exes) and go "this is a story about escaping hell, why doesn't he escape hell????" then you may have missed a trick here

[strawberry-crocodile]

no story has EVER before started with a protagonist whose stated goals run counter to the ultimate themes and messaging of the story before

[strawberry-crocodile]

"the story is cordoned off in a corner and not during gameplay" your romance options are one of the bosses and a random event room. the olympians youre trying to connect with are constantly giving powerups tied to their personality and domain. when you initiate contact with someone they give you a passive buff, and when you reach a tutning point in certain relationships they give you a super attack. the final boss of every run is your shitty dad.

it feels like your complaint is "games shoupd never pause the action for dialogue" and like. thats a fine preferance but no?

[strawberry-crocodile]

"Why is this game making me watch a long cutscene about how bad Zagreus is at filing, I wanna be playing a fun game right now! This is a failure of game design." Actually I think the game just gave you the experience of trying to do work and school with ADHD better than any comic or article I've ever seen

Wanderstop puts me in a strange state of mind. I feel tense. antsy. I could be spending this time doing anything else, I could be working towards something, accomplishing goals, making progress. instead I'm... sitting there. listening to the wind. watching the leaves move around... it's... relaxing? but... why do I feel so tense when I relax?... why is relaxing so uncomfortable?... how do you relax, anyway?

Ugh. A work is challenging me and making me think about things I feel uncomfortable about... but I will grow stronger from this trial... But the work is explicitly about how focusing on that all the time is a bad thing! Ugh!

Fuck you get this shit out of my brain

Due to the limiting of medical supplies, the break down of Gaza's health system, and Israel's repeated closings of the crossings, many ill and disabled Palestinians are struggling to maintain their health.

Hamza's family is currently fighting the effects of malnutrition and chronic illness due to limited food and a lack of medical care. Food and medicine are both extremely expensive in the strip, and any amount of sharing or donation will help! Thank you!
