@fortayee honestly I think people should do this kind of thing more. explain what you mean obviously for people who aren't familiar but like, we need to stop de-intellectualizing our critical discussions

@seventhform_ and I think the fact that you have to wait so long to check in with Rean and Kevin again can make Act 1 feel longer than it is. I imagine for a lot of people Act 1 would be more enjoyable on a replay, when the anticipation of seeing the other groups again isn't as pressing

@seventhform_ And it stands out because the Rean and Kevin chapters are so much snappier in that regards, so I think Van's chapters end up feeling longer than they actually are. My podcast cohost called it "eating my Vangetables". There's great stuff in there, but the pacing feels uneven imo

@seventhform_ I think the friction a lot of people have in Act I is that you have access to so many districts in Edith right from the start, which mean it takes a really long time to do your rounds in Van's chapters if you're checking in with every NPC. It can make the pacing feel longer.

@fortayee the story of botw isn't good because of the plot outline, it's good because of the execution. but newsflash: all stories succeed or fail based on execution! that's the whole goddamn point of storytelling!

@fortayee these are the kind of people who think reading a wikipedia plot summary is the same experience as reading the book or watching the movie

@fortayee not with catching mechanics but with letting you choose to engage in regular encounters in real time combat or turn based

obviously there are lots of disabled adults who do have legal guardians, but the immediate assumption that becca must have a legal guardian and if it's not her sister, the writers must be forgetting her parents are dead? absolutely foul

i'm sorry is everyone insane? why are we assuming a disabled adult MUST have a legal guardian? the ableism absolutely reeks. becca not being capable of living alone doesn't mean she isn't capable of making decisions. needing care doesn't rob you of capacity.

@fortayee i did enjoy the gameplay more than most musou (the map strategic stuff made it less mindless imo) but yeah the writing is genuinely good and in some ways improves on 3 houses too. (except azure gleam part 2)
