dawg, i gotta say, i love how ieytd3 has done more to acknowledge the telekinesis stuff!! obviously in the past it’s kinda been glossed over bc it’s like a required game mechanic (and an excellent game mechanic at that) but i love how it’s now gotten more in game plot attention!
i think it’s genius how they chose to introduce kinesium (idk if i’m spelling that right kfjsjfjjg) as like a multi-purpose material. i think it’s great to see it mostly used for powering the robots at first, and it’s just sorta mentioned ‘oh yeah, this is also the thing in your brain chip’ bc it doesn’t make it feel quite so weird that the telekinesis hasn’t really been mentioned in depth before. they keep it real casual and it fits how it’s been treated in the past.
then later when you get to see more of the explosions and chain reaction stuff it’s like ‘OH, i’ve got that stuff in my brain’ and it adds a really cool personal level to everything bc you’re working to save the world obvi, but also you personally will like, get your brain exploded if you don’t stop this scheme, ya know?
then, as just the icing on the cake, we’ve got that ending scene with the triple-telekinesis!! i thought that was really cool and just like the drama of it all!! with having to like really pull on the thingies!! and the purple strain stuff!! and prism and the handler’s reactions!! i think it’s all really cool! i really really hope we continue to get more stuff with the telekinesis in the future because i think it’s really interesting from a world holding perspective, a character perspective, and just a storytelling perspective! yeah!!
