an absolute feast for the senses. one of the most visually stunning games i've ever played and i love the music too.

third time playing this but i was caught off guard with how hard it hit me even with knowing what was coming. not sure if it was just playing this in context of how it can be when being alive in 2024 among other things, if it hits harder with age, or both.

another thing that i hadn't really thought about or considered before is how funny this can be at times in spite of everything else. scattered moments like Susan asking Mitzi if she was emo, the babysitter fakery, and so forth are all great moments of levity given the surroundings.

might make this the time i finally go back to Downfall (and play the original version) and then get around to Lorelai and Burnhouse Lane for the first time, hopefully.
