Video Game Analyses

As I’m less conversant in the intricacies of video game mechanics, the focus of these reviews is predominantly the analysis of the narrative framework, character arcs, distinguishable themes, plot significance or interpretation, and visual symbolism that these games employ. I also tend to engage in rather tangential discussions often pertaining to the psychological evaluation of the characters and their underlying mentalities and motivations, in addition to expounding upon the philosophy, accuracy, and tact of these represented elements. Occasionally, I’ll delve into the resonance certain facets of the narrative have with my personal experiences.

So, even though these games might not be particularly well-known, I hope my recorded commentary and thoughts will still provide sufficient intrigue and inspire further conversation about my perspectives on subjects such as familial issues, relationships, love, mental illness, morality, and general life predicaments. I also provide some context and background information on the game as necessary. Spoilers!
