I can be whatever I want here.” While I applaud Japanese developers for dealing with things like gender and sexuality more often and openly in their games, I wish they wouldn’t dance around it as much. Tsukasa Okino is a “male” character that chooses to dress up as (and embody) a woman, flirts openly with a male character, and in the epilogue, when “he” embraces living in a simulation, he makes a comment about switching genders, saying “It’s not just the clothes. I’ve written previously on characters in Japanese games that flirt with trans-ness or gender fluidity, but yet again the developers fail to commit. There is yet another character that deals with gender issues in an annoyingly indirect way. I’m not a huge RTS player, so I was more than happy to set the difficulty to easy and handily hand the enemies their ass time and time again. Look, if you asked me to recount the story I’d probably get lost in my own attempt, but I think the gist of this multi-layered story is get-able. I feel like I was rewarded for that, in a way, because everything became clear in the end. The story was very hard to follow, but at a certain point I gave up trying to untwist the knotted narrative because more twists would inevitably pop up.

The music and voice acting are also stellar, making the game feel as close to a 1980s-isnpired anime as you can get. The water-color inspired character and background art is just gorgeous, and I never lost my sense of awe and appreciation for it as the game went on. Admittedly, much of my love remains centered on the aesthetic. I’ll keep it short, since I’ve already talked a bit about it, but I ended up really loving it and getting the platinum trophy for it. I do have more thoughts on 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim, though, since I’ve finished it. They keep adding new armor components and accessories but, no. I’m still playing Halo Infinite online, but I don’t have much to add other than I am absolutely styling in my cat ears and sparkly purple armor. It seems a fact that time works differently during a pandemic, so I’m not sure if I should say “it’s already April” or “it’s only April,” but I wanted to jot down some thoughts about the games I’ve played recently, regardless, because I feel like Chrono Cross will get a post of its own soon. That was the absolute worst segue anyone’s ever written but I am tired, and I’d like to get back to playing the new Chrono Cross remaster, so let’s just let that one slide.

You know what’s not cold and grey, though? My love of video games. It’s a grey and snowy day… and it’s April.

I first came up with the story idea as a joke: 'What if a Western Dating TV Show was more like a Japanese Battle Royale Game?' I had never expected the idea to go anywhere, but a year later, that same idea has been realized in a game with over 4+ hours full of romance, comedy, and crazy antics! I like to write stories that are strange, but this one was weird even by my standards. Hi, I'm Auden Cho-Wong, the creator of Find Love or Die Trying.
