this part of Thirsty Suitors meant a lot to me ❤️
thirsty suitors is one of those titles that the gamer gate ghouls would've made up to joke amongst themselves about how woke video games are getting nowadays, because they're pandering to xyz demographic.
but I haven't seen anybody with negative shit to say so far, which is surprising considering that everything about seems like it was engineered in a lab to piss them off...
queer, trans & nonbinary characters of color?
check
fat characters who are depicted as desireable and aren't made into comic relief?
check
a narrative that doesn't center white cis male experiences and gaze?
check
some food with seasoning???
check
a "battle" system that doesn't emphasize violent resolutions to conflicts?
check
femme & female characters who aren't sexualized to absurd degrees?
check
and theres probably more I'm missing because even the smallest departure from the formula these dorks are so accustomed to is enough to make them piss themselves in fury.
its kinda hard to put myself in the shoes of people like that because everything about this game was delightful and is exactly what i think has been missing in the industry for so long.
it would be one thing if the execution was more sloppy and not very thoughtfully made but it wasn't. nothing felt arbitrarily put in to accumulate woke points. if it were, i think it would've been pretty obvious and also not as well recieved.
and besides, in what dimension would it make sense that the creators of this game would choose to purposely make something that is so unlike all of the top selling titles if they just wanted to release a shitty cashgrab?
if all they wanted was to make money with a game that had guaranteed mainstream appeal, it doesn't make sense that they'd risk it with one where both of the main characters fail the paper bag test and they're both gay as hell. that doesnt exactly sound like a cash cow considering our political climate lately...or in the last 6000 years.
and don't get me wrong it isn't a perfect game and I'm confident the creators DID want it to be successful. i only wish certain animations were a bit more fluid and dynamic, specifically some of the facial expressions and model movements although i suspect this might have been a stylistic choice rather than an oversight.
it was also pretty short ,which isn't necessarily bad but significanly reduces the replay value from my perspective. i also wish the maps were sliiiightly bigger and that there was more to do in general. the minigames and such were fine mechanically, but after a while they got fairly repetative and not rewarding enough to keep doing after a certain point of play.
by and large though, everything else was pretty satisfying. though not quite open world, it definitely felt as though we have a great deal of autonomy in our exploration of the different areas of the map. i would've loved to see more interactable people and objects or even more special costumes and drip.
regardless i had a great time, even though some of the cooking challenges were so hard they'll haunt my nightmares.

Game Review: Thirsty Suitors (Xbox Series X)
Thirsty Suitors is an attention-grabbing game, one that bedazzles with its colourful fantasy elements, but sticks in the mind because of its themes and depth. It’s wacky, it’s weird, and it’s a lot of fun. Most of the time.

Review: Thirsty Suitors
Thirsty Suitors, from @outerloop, has well-crafted RPG mechanics and satisfying combat, but its gleefully wild and colorful style and superb dialogue and characters are truly its biggest strength. It’s the type of game where you find yourself tempted to try every activity possible, either to see a loving ode to South Asian cultures, a well-written character moment or both.
