this one really hurts to shelve. I really enjoyed what I played but I have so many mental hurdles keeping me from finishing this. I would love to be the guy that plays through Void Stranger multiple times and does all the different paths but I can’t. I get super anxious thinking about this process when I know I have a bunch of other video games I want to play and a bunch of other non video game things I want to devote my time to. As I think about the rest of my life and where I’m currently, I can feel that available time pool draining right in front of me. While the esoteric nature of this game is appealing, I know that I would resort to using a guide and that makes me feel a horrible mixture of impatient and flat out dumb. I ran into a similar scenario with Outer Wilds, where I really enjoyed it to a point, but that point was a brick wall where I had to confront who I am and what I’m worth. Even making the decision to shelve this was a small confrontation between myself and those feelings, and I feel like a wounded loser in this fight.

and why did the devs make her BUSTY?????
