To the moon. I don't know what it is that made me like it. But it really gets to me and just makes me cry. It is the most powerful game I have ever played.
As I went through this incredibly affecting and stunningly powerful tale of love, loss, and redemption I found myself near to tears several times. The whole "It seems I'm doing something heartless for a rather long time, but I'm really not!" cliche near the end. That whole scene to me was just a pending punchline. It gave me a greater agency, and a sense that I was truly having an effect on the world. During the game, cause I'd had a story too, it did , open the storybook that leverages the cultural language of video games to weave a unique and affecting tapestry storybook.
It was one of those moments when I realize, yet again, that these aren't just games but they can get down to my core as a person every bit as much as a movie, music, novel etc. It is something that makes me pause.
I teared up a bit when I finished the game.
