you have no idea how badly i simp for Crow i swear to god its a crime they don't let you fuck him multiple times

i will never understand the hype this game gets its the most mid thing ive ever played

this game is literally just fun. like, there's no deep story, the story that's there is just cute and has a nice little ending section. the gameplay of the game is just so good and so versatile for speedrunning purposes that its hard not to love this game. so yeah. game really good.

i waited. SO LONG. for this game to come out. i was so fucking excited. the game was amazing in its first half, i loved all the characters, i loved every single thing about it.

the last half of this game might be one of the most soul-crushing experiences i've ever had in a game. there's genuinely nothing good i can say about it.

so let's get into it.

in chapter 4, the main city the player takes residence in during 3/4 is attacked by the MIASMA, however you manage to fight it off. it comes back, and this time, isabel and alva are both injured (but mainly alva)

what follows is the dumbest plot decision in any game i've played. Alva's fate is thrown around so much, changing from "she's injured" to "she's dead" to "she's injured" again. Isabel, because there are apparently NO hospitals or healthcare in one of the FEW REMAINING CITIES decides to take her to THE EDGE OF THE FUCKING CONTINENT JUST TO GET HER BACK TO HEALTH. SPOILER ALERT SHE DIES ON THE WAY THERE.

i would go into the rest of the plot. how daniel and william's plot has the worst ending imaginable, how the Mother is not even slightly fleshed out enough or an interesting concept to begin with, how this game is honestly a fucking disgrace at "representation" when it treats its two lesbian characters so badly that one is left dead and the other is presumed dead (but they didn't care enough to follow up on what happens to her anyway so </3)

but i'm tired. i'm tired of talking about this game. i've explained to so many of my friends why I hate it. why it's the worst game I've ever played. so i don't fucking care to explain it again.

fuck Eastward.

not kidding when i say that the reason my yakuza 4 playthrough took 2 months was because i got depressed one day and randomly started P5S. was a much better game and i cried at the ending bc i would have to go back to Y4

FAVORITE GAME OF ALL TIME. BANGER. FINISHED IT LIKE 6 TIMES AND GOING TO DO A 7TH EVENTUALLY

this is the best touhou game tbh
