You know something I’ve always been interested in was diving more into Kyler and Kit’s former relationship. Interestingly, and if I’m remembering this correctly, when looking at the game files, this photo you find of K+K around the fireplace is titled “old college photo.” What’s interesting is when looking at former Waverly Academy alumni, Kyler graduated in 1995. I’m curious to know how they met, what their relationship was like, did Kit visit her at Waverly? So many questions. And I love the web that is the ND universe 🌟
**ETA: Casey_nickerson1 on IG pointed out an excellent observation! It is the flower stand from Venice as the couple’s backdrop. Now I must know: did they study abroad together? Vacation together?! I HAVE QUESTIONS!!!!!

Every day I wake up and wish we could explore the entirety of Castle Malloy instead of like a hallway and three rooms

Okay but like the fact that this one image tells so much and is (imo) the saddest thing in the entire game
Like it's the Malloy family tree and they have asterisks over the deceased, and little Fiona added her own parents' stars after they died, and the stars are both messed up bc she was just a kid :(
And then she added her raven as her own child and the raven died...and so did the next one and the next one and the next one and her writing and her stars get messier and messier as time goes on until the last star is just a scribble and the newest raven's name is just lines to show her mental state deteriorating over the years
and like...there are other people on the tree that are alive. Fiona had family and she never saw them again after the accident, and they thought she was dead all that time. And we know Kyler's grandpa is now passed away and Fiona has no idea given that he has no star. Maybe she's been holding on to faint memories of him and hoping to see him again one day. She never knew that he had children, and now his children are dead as well. Who knows what is going on with the other family line, but at least one in her generation had already passed by the time of the accident.
Idk I know this is all obvious stuff but this poster really just hits me because it tells such a sad story :(

Matt: You’re not going to my wedding? Alan: I would but I have a conflict. It conflicts with my enjoyment of life.

Playing DAN and HAU next to each other is a great example of HER placing a game in a foreign country and then having a cast from everywhere else. We don’t see this in CUR, SAW, or CAP and it is also mixed with VEN, ICE, SPY, LIE, and TMB. I understand that in a global society there will be people from all around the world in a given spot but I feel in HAU specifically it is a slap in the face to the Irish to have a British cast. 
Others have spoken about the dismissive attitude towards the very valid concerns the Irish would have with the English. Kyler herself displays a common attitude of the English educated in not knowing of the atrocities the English enacted on the Irish. Donal is a presented as overly hating the English with no perceivable reason - so he seems unreasonable when anyone who knows about Irish history would know he is perfectly within his rights. 
He absolutely would have been an adult during the Troubles, and is at most a single generation removed from Irish independence. We do not know what he did or who he lost, but we know that he watched others be killed over these issues. All of those in the story were alive for the Good Friday agreement - which turns 25 next month. 
Another hit is the near complete lack of Irish in the story. We have some names sure, and Ogham runes, but the Irish language is beautiful and there has been so much work put into preserving it. It survived years of illegality and of people being outright murdered for speaking it. We know HER can integrate language, and they have in so many other games. Irish should be a part of this. (Also all signage should be in Irish and English because while there are two languages Irish should technically receive priority.) 
The Irish Diaspora is huge, mostly because of specific steps that were taken by the English to exterminate Irish language, people, and culture and replace it with their own. Irish potato famine you say? Yeah, we can blame the English for how bad that was. We can blame the English in general for the shift to farming the land rather than being more pasture based. 
Ireland has been essentially at peace for most millennial lives (and typically Ireland tries to stay out of outside wars - which is why the “military type” comment at the end of HAU seemed out of place) but as we have seen this past year a match could still set everything off. My dad, who has competed professionally in fishing, recalls not being able to fish in the waterways growing up because the English prohibited it. One of my grans ran a B&B where she educated English guests on what had been done to the Irish. Irish history is rarely taught properly (that is to say, with the Irish perspective in mind) outside of Ireland, which is a true shame.

Nancy’s Fits
[1] [2] 3 [4]
This is a project where I tried to reconstruct the outifts Nancy wears and/or packs in the various games. To fill in gaps, I made guesses based on Nancy’s style, frequent clothing items and context like weather. I’ve likely missed some stuff, but it’s been fun!
Specific in-game sources for the outfits under the cut 
hairstyle based off logo silhouette unless other style is shown
face, hair color and body type based off logo, cover art, in-game models, images and descriptions
CRY: outfit based on in-game silhouette. mainly guess work
VEN: outfits visible in wardrobe. some items also visible in costume shop. catsuit visible in club and cutscenes
HAU: outfit and hairstyle based off nancy's walking and flying model
RAN: outfit and hairstyle visible on nancy’s walking and climbing model. dry suit visible in cabinet
WAC: outfit based on other characters' outfits (and nancy's preference for button downs)
SAW: t-shirts, sweaters, and pants based off suitcase items. shirt and hairstyle partially visible in blurry photo. guess work on shoes
