I remember...Luisfe, I think? LPing this and just quitting out of frustration (or finishing it? I may have quit reading out of boredom, myself). Tedium is difficulty, in its own special way, so I don't know if the statement at the start of the thread is especially accurate.

The overarching theme of this game might as well be "I know I'm supposed to, but I can't take this seriously."

Eridanus certainly has the best theme, at least.

This bullshit is where the game lost me completely. If you keep breaking the rules of the setting, what's the point? The characters aren't good enough to salvage this trainwreck.

Getting mildly invested in a dungeon? Interested to see what the other two bosses are gonna become?

Nope, time to backtrack and meet up with the exaggerated libertarians.

God, this game is dumb.

I completely forgot grus existed

Obviously, I remembered there was a sector starting with G, but I literally remember nothing about it

murder is correct, but since you have a law protag it'd make more sense to brainwash them

also, thanks for doing the worst path first, assuming the alignment holds

This exactly

The pragmatic and intelligent answer is to kill the exceedingly non-loyal force brainwashed by a likely-unaligned former friend, because they're liable to become enemies whether brainwashed or not

But you already have the law alignment so for the sake of not wasting your time, might as well do that one now

I point out that we already have an example of what happens to people affected by the hymn, and they don't exactly seem unhappy with it.

I expected you to understand that what I was saying via pithy quote was that psychologically breaking someone to the point that they're happy is considered a bad thing because "happiness" is not intrinsically good, but I think you're just an idiot

I recall that the general idea of hell involves suffering. I don't see that on display - seems to be quite the opposite.

If there's no one left alive, is anyone suffering?

it's more making GBS threads on the jewish idea of god

It does a really poor job of it, speaking as a jew

That's mostly because I don't think japanese media gets judaism at all
