When did you discover the game and get into the fandom?
I think a few months after it came out so early 2021. I saw a thumbnail on a youtube video about it and a lets player that I liked at the time started playing it! I was, omg omg, I was expecting it to be a murder mystery and I was scared it'd get scary. It's so cutely horrifying.
It caught me off guard really! I was apprehensive at first too. I just jumped in blindly. Then the hyperfixation started I watched like 8 letsplays in a row, got the game for myself, beat it 100% all achievements. Beat all the save files played one with partner, got it on ps5 did the same thing. During that time I also was starting to read fanfictions and look up art and follow more on it. Then I attempted drawing grumps and its all over from there.
and when the DLC came out AUGH played it 3 times after that and did all the mail quests. I also spent SO much time color coordinating all the grumps with matching bugsnax. Spent a lot of time just goofing around.
Its still my hyperfixation.
