VOLITION - I have bad news for you.
YOU - What?
VOLITION - You know these guys?
LOGIC - Who, me?
DRAMA - Yes, you. He's talking about you, you boring stiff.
VOLITION - You too.
DRAMA - Me? What did I do? I'm merely a master thespian...
VOLITION - These guys are compromised. She's got them singing along to her tune. The little bleeps and bloops you trust for info -- you can't trust them anymore.
YOU - Oh my god.
VOLITION - Believe it.
YOU - Which ones exactly are affected?
VOLITION - There's no way of knowing. At the moment I'm afraid it's best to assume...
VOLITION - ...*all* of them.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - Bullshit, man, I ain't *compromised*.
VOLITION - *Especially* that guy. That guy's the most compromzised one in here.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - No fucking way, man, I just want a drag of that sweet Menthol ziggie.
VOLITION - Really? Quick, tell me what's under her jumpsuit?
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - GLORY. TRUTH. SOFTNESS. PROTECT HER. SHE WANTS YOU.
VOLITION - I take it back. He's got it pretty bad, but this *next guy's* on another level entirely...
SUGGESTION - She likes you. The Crownhead is a boring condom. He's jealous. This is human nature.
i fucking love this UGH 🫶
Men are fixated on greed, on desire, and on the acquisition not of experiences or pleasure but the ability to aquire. People are fixated on wealth. Man is reduced to the desire for desire. Wanting is all that matters. Not loving, not being, not having, but wanting. We are killers for desire. Even sport would be preferable. This is the grand sickness, the eternal sickness of this land - it is, man unleashed.
literally what the hell was he thinking
Hi! My name is Tsukasa Strongestprimatehighschooler, and I’m building a new stone world! Unlike stinky Senku, who wants to “revive all of humanity“ and “not kill people for being over 35“, I’m only picking the best and most useful people for my utopia, such as:
The mass-murdering moderator of r/semenretention!
The only pacifist in the JMSDF!
A random gymnast!
A random Swiftie!
A pick-up artist I saw on TV once!
And the winner of the Police Brutality Olympics!
I’m a very smart man and can totally build an utopia!
disco elysium, despite having a male protag and deuteragonist, raised the fucking bar for female characters for me. im picky now. if your game doesnt have complex, interesting, and plot-important women in it, its shit. full offense, fuck you
women are the soul and beating fucking heart of disco elysium. klaasje, patron saint of womens wrongs and problematic bisexuals? joyce, whos one of the most helpful and polite characters in the game towards you and yet understands that her success depends on the suffering of others, but plays in the systems game anyway?? dora, who isnt even dead and yet haunts the narrative start to finish??? ruby, the butch Real One who risks her neck for someone she barely knows yet cant help but feel so much compassion for that it dooms her by the narrative???? elizabeth? soona? cindy? neha? cunoesse? lilienne? The Pigs? paledriver? alice? phillis? im just naming them all at this point, theyre all bangers
Kim Kitsuragi is a fascinating character because there's not that much fun or interesting or compelling about him. And yet somehow over the course of playing Disco Elysium the game rewires your fucking brain around him. He's the middest man you've ever seen in both appearance and personality but at some point he says something kind to you or something critical of you and you feel like you just got hit by a truck and you need his approval like you need oxygen and like how tf did this happen. what are you
This man showed up, drew naked women, had sex, destroyed marriages, took a shit in the middle of a pub, cross-dressed, flirted with men, made out with Arthur Morgan and then left the country. Fair enough actually.
🔝🔝🔝
either treat abigail, molly, mary, with respect or die looking down the barrel of my gun
i'm being one hundred percent serious when i say i'm tired of people disregarding and disrespecting them to uplift their queer ships. it's bad and it needs to stop.
like i just read a jovier post where they have john cheat on abigail?what the fuck man.
his love for her is unwavering and he is incredibly committed to abigail, he's so devoted to her, working so hard to create a life for the three of them. john is willing to lay down his life to protect his family, and he does so, rescuing them is his whole motive for seeking redemption in the first game. he would never disrespect abigail like that, he's learned and grown, he's no longer the shithead deadbeat dad when jack was young, he loves her.
arthur still so clearly loves mary, his love remaining steadfast and unwavering even years after their broken engagement, it's so obvious on his face when he looks at her. his heart still yearns for her that when she calls, he comes, even if he's a little miffed at the start, he still goes. honestly, i believe if arthur didn't have other commitments in the gang, he would have run away with her when she asked him.
and while molly and dutch's relationship is tumultuous and dutch absolutely does not deserve her, molly is so important to dutch's character and the story as a whole. molly's loyalty to dutch highlights dutch's charisma and the ways dutch inspires loyalty throughout the gang. her existence also depicts the internal conflicts dutch has and the moral uncertainty of dutch's actions. her presence within the gang and relationship with dutch represents the internal strife and conflicts within the gang, highlighting the human cost of their choices and the sacrifices that are made in pursuit of a false freedom in the old west.
and let's not even mention the treatment eliza, annabelle, bessie and even susan receive, which is hardly any mention at all.
eliza, annabelle and bessie each play small but significant parts to not just their respective partners, but to the story as a whole.
eliza shapes arthu’rs past and motivations. her tragic death, along with their son, isaac, has a large impact on arthur and his present relationships, such as abigail and jack. their memory serves as a driving force of arthurs path to redemption.
annabelles fate fuels dutch's vendetta against colm and the o'driscolls, and adds personal stakes to the gang as a reminder of the consequences of their life as an outlaw.
and bessie, oh bessie, not only does she add depth to hosea and represents hosea's wishes for a more peaceful life, but hosea loves her so much that when coming to terms with his inevitable death, whether by gunshot or sickness, the mere chance of reuniting with bessie brings him so much comfort, despite the fact that he fears that bessie lives above, while hosea will be traveling down below.
susan is a very controversial character due to her treatment of the women in the gang and her murdering molly, who did not betray the gang, both of which i do not condone, but it is impossible to deny her importance to the story. not only was, from what we know, dutch's first woman, coming before annabelle and molly, she also served an important role in the gang, acting as an authority figure, maintaining order and discipline within the gang where tensions often rise. she serves as an emotional anchor, which is incredibly important when death is constantly looming over you and adds so much depth and complexity to the story of rdr2.
when you ignore and disregard these characters you are undermining the depth and the richness of the story, each of these characters are important to the story. if you wish to truly appreciate the storytelling of rdr2, it is important to recognize and respect each of these characters.
