one of my favorite games of all time, and one i dearly wish i could experience for the first time again! i think about this game often and i listen to the soundtrack regularly!

the first time i played it, close to a year ago now, i copied down all information in a physical notebook (even printed out and glued all character portraits into it) and i had such a fantastic time piecing it all together, i don't think i've ever played a game before or since that possessed me to go such lengths to track information (the closest is lucas pope's other game papers please, where i made my own list of passport info). i've replayed the game several times with the personal challenge of not taking any physical notes and 100% relying on the in-game book and that satisfies that replay-itch somewhat but god, what i'd do to not be able to recognize characters' faces anymore, not remember their names and roles on the obra dinn
