did you finish Night in the Woods? what do you think of it?
i really really liked it!!!!!!!!!
it’s such a gorgeous game, and i loved the idea of friendship routes as the focus as a change from romantic ones (i loved bea’s route and still need to play through gregg’s).
i still mostly do not understand the dream sequences but i liked them a lot in conjunction with the dreaminess of longest night and lost constellation (I RECOMMEND BOTH SUPPLEMENTAL GAMES)
it’s so hard to believe this game was not developed during the election cycle lmao.
i was really fascinated by the idea of doing a “deal with the devil” and sacrificing other people to keep a dying middle-america mining town alive. it reminds me of all of those thinkpieces about the election being legitimately the dying gasps of a lost way of life, and the game was really…tender and sensitive in its approach to the real people caught up in that (especially those who don’t immediately turn to human sacrifice)
the hole in the center of everything is a T E R R I F Y I N G idea and it works so well in this context, as does god being this giant otherworldly creature who doesn’t understand why people keep talking to it
ALSO I LOVE LABOR UNION TOOTH, PLEASE READ ALL THE ARTICLES IN THE LIBRARY
