I’ve been sitting here sick, playing What Remains of Edith Finch.

I’m obsessed with this game right now.

@Classified It’s more melancholy than anything.

@Straylight Not gory/horrory?
Straylight · 31-35, F
@Classified Not at all. Though it is about how several different people died, it’s not graphic or horror themed. It walks a line between wonder and sadness which is fitting because I think the overall theme is that we have to accept that the bad times are what give the good ones meaning.

@Straylight So it's more of a story / emotional thing.
Straylight · 31-35, F
@Classified Yeah, that sounds like it. You explore Edith’s childhood home finding journals and articles about each family member that leads to flashbacks and an associated mini game about each that person and how they died. Some versions are the exact circumstances but others are more fantastical and are like tall tales told by the family.

@Straylight That's quite sad. Especially when enough people die to make a game out of it.
