Dating sims are absolutely played by heterosexual boys. Some of the weirdest, red-pill, alpha-male shit I've seen is from dating sims.

But yeah, usually on PC, I would think.

Uh... maybe?
Trump and Elon don't actually care about the constitution, you know. They pretend that they do because it's patriotic, but it wouldn't stop them from doing anything they're doing.

Elon actually hands these out to people who don't want them because they were unpopular and an easy means of telling chuds apart from... uh, chads? There's a good chance hers is a forced advertisement and not something she's actually paying for.

I have. Sauerkraut was talking about voting reform. Which, I'll point out, still does not require the complete dissolution of the voting system we have.

Yes, of course. Who is talking about throwing the Department of Education out wholesale?

the Department just needs to be fixed so that it can continue to serve its purpose.

All this means is "don't give up." You acknowledge it's not serving its purpose right now, it's serving some other purpose.

I actually quite liked the melancholy of the original track. Walking the rail to Corel is actually one of my favorite parts of the original game. I'm not sure I could really explain why now, but it's right off the heels of something that happens earlier in the plot, and this moment always felt really introspective to me. Something about the party being split into the upper and lower railway lends to that feeling, too.

I still can't parse whether I didn't realize it or the synthwave here retroactively implanted it in my head.

Like it made you think of Dear to the Heart? They're definitely using the same family of notes. I feel like I can hear some connection between the two tracks, but it's so blended up, I don't think any part is really recognizable.

They really ought to be similar, though, because Rebirth's arrangement of Dear to the Heart is actually the theme for Costa del Sol's surrounding area. Mt. Corel directly follows it. I don't think I realized that song was still present in this part of the game until just now. I feel suddenly like it's no longer missing, haha.

Rebirth's soundtrack is such an impressive project.

I don't want to write too many paragraphs, but it really is. So much ear candy. That one, single pizzicato pluck in the middle of Let's Go gets me every time.

So much of this game is new and old at the same time. Even in Remake, I remember being so impressed that the battle system was so evolved and different but still so tightly bound to the spirit of the original's. It was sometimes like nothing had changed even though everything had.

This is my favorite track in this game. It's a song that feels so excited to start traveling, like it's begging you to climb somewhere difficult and high, and then take a long drink of the world below you.

Funny, 'cause I thought it was such a weird choice the first time I heard it.

they’re more worried about grocery store prices than they are about race bigotry

So... wouldn't appealing to their grocery store prices mean something, then?

I don't want any. :(

He's advocating for eliminating the rich.

Which would make for a better world. Which he believes in.
