a dad has fallen for a dad in lego city. was the wholesome games discourse already in swing when this came out? i feel like it was kind of ahead of the curve and was left to very quietly age like milk. a toothless and hollow experience at its core. this game has absolutely nothing interesting to say and holds a barely restrained contempt for its subject matter and audience at large. i am giving it an extra star out of respect for my enjoyment of it as a completely brainless teenager.

so like, from an objective standpoint i can recognize and respect that this game, especially at the time, was trying to do some really new and interesting things and push video games as a medium for storytelling. unfortunately this cannot hold up in the face of how bad and stupid it is. if i ever see david cage on the street it is on SIGHT

very sweet without being cloying! great atmosphere, solid writing. all the characters were great. really good at creating a sense of wanting to linger. also i liked the fact that them being animals was actually acknowledged in game! i've seen it more commonly be a purely stylistic choice, so it was fun to see it come up in dialogue.
