Okay, first and foremost, the gameplay of this is absolute dogshit. It's mind-numbingly tedious, clunky, offensive at points, it feels like it had no thought put into it. The story and writing on the other hand? One of the best ever, immaculate, nigh perfect, untouchable, in a league of it's own. Every single ounce of creativity went into the writing, the characters, the setting, the feeling of bittersweet goodbyes, all-too-soon farewells. Never has a game made me genuinely care about the fate of a character more than this. Now, I hate the statement "_____ broke me". It exudes a lack of life experience, of soul, of human interaction and love for your fellow man. But when I had first played it, I was legitimately affected by P.F. running out of battery before she could fully say what she wanted. I was unironically ruined for a couple of days and whenever I remembered, I would choke up and fight for my life in order to prevent myself from sobbing in public. The melancholic atmosphere combined with the rich world building and out of the way story telling are masterful. The ending just being as bittersweet and realistic ties everything up perfectly. Incredible.

I see nor hear no evil
Black writings on the wall
Unleashed a million faces
And one by one they fall
Black-hearted evil
Brave-hearted hero
I am all, I am all, I am
I, I, I, I am
Here we go, buddy
Here we go, buddy
Here we go
Here we go, buddy
Here we go
Go ahead and try to see through me
Do it if you dare (dare)
One step forward, two steps back
I'm here (one step forward, two steps back)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
Can you see all of me?
Walk into my mystery
Step inside and hold on for dear life
Do you remember me?
Capture you or set you free
I am all, I am all of me
I am (I am, I'm all of me)
I am (I am, I'm all of me)
I am (I am, I'm all of me)
(Here we go)
I see and feel the evil
My hands will crush 'em all
You think you have the answers
I'll laugh and watch you fall
Black-hearted evil
Brave-hearted hero
I am all, I am all, I am
I, I, I, I am
Here we go, buddy
Here we go, buddy
Here we go
Here we go, buddy
Here we go
Go ahead and try to see through me
Do it if you dare (dare)
One step forward, two steps back
I'm here (one step forward, two steps back)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
Can you see all of me?
Walk into my mystery

Do you remember me?
Capture you or set you free
I am all, I am all of me
(I am, I am all of me)
I am (I am, I'm all of me)
I am (I am, I'm all of me)
I am (I am, I'm all of me)
(Here we go)
I am, I am everyone, everywhere
Anyhow, any way, any will, any day
