this game looks good.
That's it.

(also there are ofc dudebros whining about it so if you wanna piss off dudebros, here is stg you can support)

mental health 

@grainloom I do like that they're trying to represent psychosis realistically, without stigmatising it. A little disappointed that they don't seem to be consulting people with psychosis though.

I believe the game's released now - any idea if its representation of psychosis holds up?

mental health 

@Krall idk, tbh I'm not sure they don't consult with them as well, like, maybe they did meet with them? It doesn't seem unlikely. And some reviewers on GOG mention that they themselves suffer from some mental problems and liked the game's representation of it.
Tbh having a non sexualized realistic badass female protagonist is already something I'd want to support them for, but it's a really pricey game and I don't have the hardware to play it and I don't watch gameplays.
So, idk. Read reviews?

mental health 

@grainloom Fair enough. I don't have the spare cash to buy it myself - I just simultaneously love and am wary of representations of mental illness in media. :P
