ok so i’ve been replaying one of the games in the heart’s medicine series (specifically the second game) because i realized i had only watched playthroughs of it and then immediately thought “eh why not play it myself i have time to anyway”
this game series isn’t that popular so there’s a pretty good chance that this post will go nowhere and no one will know what i’m talking about
but guys. the way that this game does foreshadowing KILLS ME INTERNALLY. (/lh) i need to give yall some examples of this because on one hand haha funny and on the other hand wow why is this game so dark when it’s basically diner dash meets greys anatomy. the two funniest examples:
daniel (one of the main characters) is talking to allison, the protagonist, very early on in the game about the hospital renovation efforts and lets alison pick the color for the new wing even though the colors he’s debating between are basically the same. allison is a bit hesitant here for obvious reasons (important renovations and also daniel’s basically in charge of everything in the hospital at this point) and then in response daniel just happens to say “besides, what’s the worst that could happen?”
after he says that, the game immediately cuts to a snapshot of an ambulance falling off of a cliff with several main characters inside it INCLUDING BOTH HIM AND ALLISON.
and then like five levels later (so like probably a month-ish in time passes) daniel talks to allison again and tells her that the renovation process is getting really frustrating and he’s really stressed out about it. alison tries to be nice and comfort him about this the best she can (she can’t really help all that much here because she’s still an intern and doesn’t really deal with much besides her internship) and then towards the end of that conversation daniel just happens to say “at least things can’t get any worse, right?”
wrong!! the game proceeds to then show THE SAME AMBULANCE FALLING OFF A CLIFF CUTSCENE.
i’m just convinced that daniel needs to shut his mouth before more bad stuff happens cause of him lmao and this game’s foreshadowing is both great and wack
