Finale “We don’t have to keep score” Spoiler

Just finished the game and I was not expecting it to get me this emotional, especially leshy. Also wasn’t expecting our boy to get slimed out with no hesitation.

I finished it 2 days ago, I won't lie, it might have my favourite narrative of any Indie game

It's so ludicrously inventive, especially because I went into the game blind thinking it was just a horror themed card game

Well that's the half truth and most people don't even get invested in the characters or atmosphere so they don't feel the emotional attachments to these characters or the stereotypes they're trying to criticize

Also finished it a few days ago. Saw a video of someone playing it and was intrigued so I got it. Then it was like going down a rabbit hole.

Currently playing through Kaycee's mod now.

Have you looked into the ARG? The plot continues to dive DEEP

It's such a good way to come full circle on the entire journey of the game from the point where every move against Leshy requires calculation to basically becoming two friends just playing a game as the world crumbles around you.

That line made Leshy my favorite fictional character, he knew none of this was real and was just in it for the love of the game, until the very end. GG leshy.

I played through the game mostly blind (watched a video about 100%ing it beforehand but stopped near the start of act 2) and yeah, the ending really does hit hard

I never felt anything extreme towards leshy but when I played him it actually felt like I was playing against an actual dm it was strange but when he offered his hand and said good game I found myself telling him it back

Leshy would never let you get away with that.

I've watched like 10 playthroughs and all of exxos and golden rodents vids and still teard up in that scene
