I like to think that Anka and Rico lived to be very accomplished and very old women. And when their time came, they passed warm in their beds, with loved ones around them, and two very special gentlemen waiting for them on the other side.
Three if you count Pixis. I count Pixis.
Gustav is the last to go and everyone is there on the other side, waiting for him. :-)
admittedly, it’s henriette who suggests that alphonse ending up having to kill his father was A Good Thing Actually but it still pisses me off that the writers are trying to suggest that this was somehow all gustav’s grand design that shows that he really was a good parent, see!
I’m a sucker for emotionally charged, artistic indie games with a deep story… But I was not prepared for Spiritfarer.
I said goodbye to Alice two nights ago, and I swear I felt my soul shatter. How can a fictional elderly hedgehog lady drive me to the kind of tears that physically hurt? It’s still making me tear up to think about 48 hours later.
I know it sounds really dumb, but I’m gonna need to heal a bit before I finish this game.
Sending Summer away after having her help with the garden then having her absent suplexed my soul straight out of my buddy and left me a withered wreck for about 3 days. I hear you.
Gwen definitely made me tear up, but Snake Mom was the first one to get me ugly crying. Did you get to read about Summer in life and how she met her wife? I swear this whole game is just one dropkick to the heart after another…
But I know I have to finish it eventually. Ugh…
That game is SO GOOD but the hurt is real. Atul? I’m broken. Gustav? Tears.
I think tonight may be the night I try again tbh. Poor Astrid, Atul, and Gustav have been waiting pretty patiently for me to finish mourning Alice and I’d be a crappy Spiritfarer if I didn’t finish the job.
Thankfully I just finished washing my crying hoodie the other day.
