Corpse Run 1,060: Honesty
This is literally dialogue from the game…
…I have no joke for this. There are huge exposition dumps that feature all these names and terms that make absolutely zero sense so it was kind of nice that a character finally came out and told me that nothing means anything and that I should never bother straining my mind trying to understand it.
Thank you, *checks notes*, Marluxia. Marluxia… sure whatever, Marluxia… who cares.
KH3 is somewhat self-aware in that the characters themselves start taking the piss and calling out how utterly convoluted the plot and lore has become.
While a little bit of self awareness isn’t a bad thing, it doesn’t make a game good either. One of the things that was slowly driving me insane playing NieR Replicant last month was how often the characters would make jokes about how bad the gameplay/questing was.
Being aware that elements of your product are bad doesn’t absolve the product of being bad. Square being self aware in this case means that they know they have a poor product but instead of doing anything about it they are just throwing their hands up and saying “screw it, whatever”.
Like, the joke is cute initially, but it wears thin pretty quick.
The funniest part about your description is that Marluxia isn’t even his real name.
reminds me of that Prozd video
