I don't know what's coming next, but if we're going to do multiple playthroughs, it might be better to leave the explanation for later. So I'm voting Venus and Neptune.

I don't really understand what happened but I'm looking forward to the rest of the LP.

I think this camp may also be a kind of Professor Xavior's Christian Camp for Gifted Youths.

I was thinking more psychic conversion therapy.

I think Neptune might not actually be fine.

I don't think it's so much a question of sin as it is dysfunction. Venus is incredibly passive, so whatever his devil is, it should play off that somehow.

It's interesting that Jupiter's ending makes it clear that she's sleeping rather than dead, but Venus and Neptune have more ambiguous fates. What are the interpretations?

That review is pretty tone-deaf, but I think it is fair to say that what you get out of this game depends a lot on what perspective you're seeing it from, and that if you're an older straight guy (like me!), you're going to miss out on a lot of the subtext of the game if you're just playing it by yourself. I'm definitely glad that I had the thread to explain what was being implied; if not for all of you, I would've found this mildly entertaining but not really got it at all.

Edit: I, uh, didn't read that far into it. I may have to go back and actually take in the whole thing.
