this game's always gonna have a special place in my heart for how deeply it spoke to severely depressed and traumatised 12 y/o me, who absolutely needed to hear what it had to say about healing and moving on. if you're thinking of playing tew2, i really can't recommend it enough - the gameplay feels amazing, the art direction is masterful, and the narrative can be a little silly at times but has a lot of genuine, impactful heart. even now i still catch myself quoting it - "blaming yourself for [past events] is like blaming yourself for an earthquake. [...] the most important thing now is that you forgive yourself."
