02:04:00 Devastator: he seems to really like i.t
02:12:14 Devastator: backstabbing is cool.

02:50:28 MJ: I'm just doig the usual of studying all the time
03:01:18 MJ: I choose this life of my own volition, so I can't complain too much.
03:17:06 Egan: this VN gives me feelings
03:17:17 Egan: unspeakable eldritch feels :p
03:37:15 Devastator: so what's it about?
03:38:30 MJ: My test or slay the princess?
03:40:14 MJ: Test is on Kidneys and Lungs
03:40:32 MJ: Don't smoke is the main thing I've learned
03:40:50 Devastator: takes this many years before you get to that point?
03:41:04 MJ: It's more just relenteslly reinforced.
03:41:20 MJ: Smokeing makes worse outcomes for essentailly any biological system you'd care to name
03:42:12 MJ: But the lung cancers and COPD are where you really see the horrors
03:42:35 MJ: Just slowly suffocate on your own CO2
03:42:37 Devastator: except hospital profits and reducing end-of-life care.
03:43:17 Devastator: (because you die sooner.)
03:43:42 MJ: I suppose that is one way of viewing it.
03:48:30 Egan: slay the princess is about slaying the princess
03:49:51 Devastator: where's the eldritch part come in?
03:49:57 Devastator: is it the yellow princess?
03:55:09 Egan: it doesn't take place in a normal world. nothing is normal.
04:10:16 Egan: welp, I reached an ending. ish
04:10:29 Egan: feel like I've been awakened to the eldritch truth now
04:10:41 Devastator: so did you kill the princess?
04:11:03 Egan: that was a loop within a loop within a loop
04:12:26 Egan: each chapter is a story which loops into the next chapter which is the same story but changed, and after a few chapters you reach a more final conclusion but THAT also loops and builds up a meta-ending, and that ending gave me a binary choice so I rebelled against the binary choice and was given a third option
04:12:38 Egan: want to know what that third option is its START ALL OVER
04:12:56 MJ: That sounds like it can be solved by more slaying
04:13:16 MJ: have you tried stabbing really really hard?
04:13:25 Egan: so now I'm here at the start of chapter 1 of loop 1 of game 2
04:13:39 Egan: that was one of the ending options
04:13:51 Egan: I chose the ending option which wasn't an ending
04:15:06 MJ: Maybe it changes if you go back to the place you were before when you made the choice?
04:16:36 Egan: yeah I haven't seen if it's going to turn stuff around on me yet
04:17:18 Egan: I'm just mentally exhausted from the high quantity of eldritch bullshit :p
04:17:55 Egan: their other game is also eldritch horror but like set in a real-ish place
04:18:02 Egan: different genre of horror
04:18:15 Egan: this is a blank canvas on which anything can happen
04:18:29 MJ: I saw that game that's like that one managa surrealist horror guy is also uot
04:19:41 Egan: World of Horror is like ito's stuff with a bit more of direct lovecraft stuff
04:20:03 Egan: and is surprisingly possible to actually save the world? :p
04:20:26 Egan: depends on the difficulty I suppose though
04:33:20 Devastator: A VN with difficulty levels?
04:34:38 Egan: world is horror isn't a VN, it's an adventure roguelite
04:35:04 Egan: both are predominantly black and white art style though
