I think this might be the first time I hear someone didn't like A Short Hike and holy shit, I wish all criticism in general was as kind as yours! (Except for criticism of things that spread harmful messages, obvs, but that's a whole different thing) I think you get it 100%, I love this game with all my heart and it's definitely because of the escapism. My reflexes are pretty bad and I like to turn off my brain sometimes, so the complete absence of negative consequences is really relaxing to me (in between torturing myself on The Binding of Isaac lmao). My sense of direction sucks, so trying to understand where specific spots are is the difficulty for me I guess lol I can absolutely see why someone wouldn't like it, though, and your points were completely fair - as demonstrated by me listing all the things you said ahah I think my favourite cosy games will always be the Animal Crossing series, specifically Wild Word, New Leaf and New Horizons (even though it was a disappointment in many ways, I love decorating and interior design so I still played a ton of it lmao). Unpacking as well, and recently I played Minami Lane and it was lovely, though short! Looking forwards to watching more of your stuff, not only was this a well written argument with good delivery but the editing was really good, I've always thought it seems really hard to properly choose which parts of a game to use for specific segments of a script and this was very well done. *except for criticism of things that spread harmful messages, obvs
Thank you so much for the lovely comment! I used to go to conferences as part of my job and I met such passionate and kind individuals so I believe in being very careful with what you say if you're not a fan, so I'm glad that came across. I'm glad it's a game you love with all your heart as everyone needs a game like that for sure. (Binding of Isaac is defo a step in the opposite direction haha). Animal Crossing, big yes, Wild World was one of my favourites. I'm also shocked I've never heard of Minami game, that art style is amazing. Thanks again for the awesome comment and I hope to see you again in the future. Have a great day! :)
@@PlayThroughTime. it definitely comes across! (And yeah, Binding of Isaac is (sometimes) torture but it's fun, very well done torture ahah) Wild World has such a magic to it, I'm sure a lot of that is because I played it when I was a kid but it's still so good. Minami Lane is very new, I believe! My pleasure, I will be for sure!
