god I wish laymen would shut the fuck up complaining about ryukishi ‘milking higurashi’ when what’s actually happening is that there’s just a new addition to wtc as an overarching series

that being said it’s almost time to get really high on wtc again even if it’s pretty dead in the water. I want to write something semi-coherent about hotarubi because I love it dearly even if it’s pretty objectively awful

interesting how people did not care when that person was implying I, someone who was a victim of real-life incest, was a deranged sexual fetishist for proposing identity-swapping/twin theories (which ultimately ended up being 100% on the right track),

unstable and violent woman from shuten looks unbearably attractive (pretty sure she’s the subject of the latest preview) so it only figures that her segment of the game seems like it’s going to suck real bad lmao

always sad when there's a ship that absolutely tickles your narrative + aesthetic sensibilities (from what you can gleam) but it requires playing like 250 hours of gachaslop before you can even get to it

I like that a bunch of people play the game series where a big thesis is 'don't judge someone by who they are on the surface; everyone is fighting their own battles and you won't understand what they've been through unless you take the time to get to know them' just to ignore the ..

honestly feels worse than it does with akane because one of akane’s major character traits is that she deals with stress by focusing on her survival needs and tuning out anything requiring introspection. it’s unsatisfying, but there’s at least a narrative justification for it

I don't know why I'm posting about the tsukumos when I came away thinking they were more or less just okay because they were extremely prevalent while simultaneously being underutilised. outside of route 0 they have the SDR2 akane problem where they're just kind of threatening you with a story

SUPERHOT VR had its whole story patched out. I thought about it slightly too long and fell into rabbit hole. It doesn't make sense, it's bad that it happened, and it prompts a whole bunch of naval-gazing about Art.

The fanservice is the only redeemable part of DR3 by the way.

⚙️ cogwheel (moved) @necrotictouch.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

tbqh he should have just been content with making a kinetic novel if the story structure wouldn’t fit with the prior structure of the games before it + standard novels don’t sell well enough to justify that format. scorching hot take but I think he underestimates just how good his writing truly is

people pulling this out as like a serious critique is so funny to me because the game goes well out of its way to establish only one person could have possibly been the saboteur iirc. you didn't outsmart the 'dumb' story, you just met its expectations 😭

always kind of funny when you can tell the artist is actually kind of heavily terminally online and took the time to listen and address a lot of the genuinely bad faith critiques they receive for being Cringe in their later works. I find it weirdly pleasant to engage with and untangle

going back to 999 is giving me some really mixed feelings because it’s forcing me to acknowledge that some of ucks’s most infuriating writing habits were there from the very beginning. VLR will have probably aged worse on account of me souring on some of his patterns though

people are treating the cult route as if it’s about the power trip alone rather than really getting into the route an extension/exploration of the entitlement he feels towards nozomi. the end justifies the means because I’m doing it for her sake. so she can remember she loves me
