Hey guys, thanks for giving us an actually kinda cute gay npc that (at least by japanese writing) feels kinda oka-....wait.

Oh no. I see what we're doing.

So for context: the base you're all in is attacked, squads scatter. End up going through a mountain range to regroup with promised reinforcements from home.

player squad finds and successfully attacks a large enemy supply base (multiple trains travel through during the mission) and restock on drastically low supplies.

Arrive at the rendezvous? All the other squads are dead save the lesbian and her crush (and commanding officer)

Well, sort of. The lesbian is mortally wounded, so the player sqaud all get to stand around and watch the touching goodbye.

And then we have like 10 minutes of cutscenes focused on the officer being deeply upset by the loss of her (HEAVILY implied) lover and squad.... and blames the player squad. Who were slowed by the fucking heavy damage to enemy infrastructure along the way. And who would have died in the assault they'd been holding off too.

OH.

AND THEN the fucking reinforcements show up.

The game fridges the lesbian, in a snowy field, blames the player for not being fast enough (you can't change it) and then the people actually at fault show up to welcoming fanfare.

Fuck I like the game but this whole collection of scenes HURT.
