This isn’t danmei related but it still baffles me how angry people were at the ending of A Plague Tale: Requiem, calling the game pointless because so many people died for Hugo and I’m like???? Y’all do realize Requiem wasn’t about Hugo, right? It gives you the illusion that it is but it’s clearly about Amicia, her inner turmoil and the horrific trauma she’s been through all while trying to save her baby brother while she’s still a baby herself. It’s about her self-destructive spiral of desperation and the consequences her obsession with saving her brother has on the rest of the world. That was the point. That was the lesson. It was intentional.

Also why are y’all expecting a 16-year-old girl who basically thinks she has nothing to live for aside of her brother to think about saving the same people who are actively trying to terrorize and kill them both and prioritize these people over saving her brother lmfaooo pls be fr

#i have way more articulate thoughts on this im just lazy rn #but APT is one of my fave franchises #and I’ve spoken with the devs and writers one on one about their vision for the game #i just don’t understand how it flew over people’s heads when it was so clearly expressed #like sorry i may not have siblings #but if i was a 16 yr old girl with a baby brother everyone wanted to treat like a lab rat #and steal from me so they can use him for their own selfish power trips #i wouldn’t give a fuck about saving them either lmaooo #she’s not a leader or a politician or a goddamn freedom fighter #she’s a teenage girl with a sling and only 1 person left in her life who hasn’t been slaughtered brutally in front of her #ajdhajhdAJDHAJD #anyway sorry been watching some playthroughs on yt and made myself mad ahahaHAHAHA #apple babble 🍎 #not danmei btw but still fandom so
