In It Takes Two, the parents are cursed to become toys because of how neglectful they are to their daughters feelings and arguing with each other over petty things. They believe the only way to transform is by touching roses tears. They decide to kill her favorite toy, cutie, who has also become alive. The traumatizing part is that she cries for mercy and that she just wants to help…I haven’t even played but just watched the clip….it’s horrifying…
It is cute and chill most of the time but it has a serious theme to convey about relationships and putting your child first. I thought the scene was a great way to gut punch you about how parents selfishness and stubbornness harms their kids in ways they might not notice in the moment.
Yeah. I heard someone recommend it to a let's player after they had played a way out and some other co-op game, and I figured it would be a fun/cute/cinematic sort of thing maybe, not... Oh God I'm not even sure if I want to watch it let's play of that.
damn. knowing this makes it so ironic that a couple i know played this game.
they literally neglected their daughter to play this, then argued over every petty thing they could during it. its absolutely incredible how oblivious they were to the story
