I think one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever cried at is the my dinner w andre episode of community lmfaoo. I’ve never even liked that show either so maybe I’m just a crazy emotional bitch

this is good :-) I like this :-) feeling like this as someone who gave up their original career path in the arts many years ago now at this point :-) the game def might be seen as romanticizing the artistic path which I think can be dangerous but I don’t think it pats itself on the back too much at least I was able to look over that

(also I finally got a laptop so that I could play weird obscure stuff like this and rpg maker games so if anyone has any good recs a cheap laptop can handle pls comment them)

Conflicted with this one. Talking about the industry is great, but this game just throw some stuff that every person related to the industry, whether it's players, game makers, etc... could say. It can even feel like an ode to manichaeism, the dialog being mostly like "AAA bad, indie good", which is true but with a lot more nuance.

The use of the Simpsons is a fun touch, since the show is known for making social commentary. But seeing a remake of the movie A Dinner With André with the Simpsons, talking about Bobby Kotick feels... off ?

Overall the game is still enjoyable, mostly because of the "3 choices" that feels impactful. The tension of trying to take good choices while our friend is talking about really serious topics is quite fun. At the end of the day, I think you should try it, it's short, pretty fun, but lacks the bite and the deepness needed for this kind of topic.
