What seems like a very simple, flash-in-the-pan management game is ultimately none of that at all.
Needy Streamer Overload is a game that doesn't pull any punches as it explores the myriad ways that the internet unnoticeably changes our brains and thought patterns, and that unflinching devotion to honesty, even in the face of extremely dark, disturbing content matter, is what it makes hit so hard. None of it is for shock value, sheer meanness, or the pursuit of edge aesthetic, though. It's simply what's required for the game's message, and game's message is devastatingly poignant.
NSO is distressingly genuine, with the mirror it holds up to society and ourselves casting a wide enough net that you're bound to see seeds of you or someone you know in something that happens to Ame. And, well...that sucks. And it's hard not to feel like I need to do something for myself because of that.
