My god this was fucking terrible. Gamers have absolutely no standards.
nips can't fiction
>>25367253I have it, never read it, but I like PE.
>>25369463the game is so much better than the book it's not even funny. scarier, cooler characters, no shitty chapters dedicated to boring one-dimensional 14 year old girl
>>25367253>WINNER>Thing, Japan>Award
>>25369471The game is crazy and I'm shocked it never got attacked by the 90s moral police. It ends with a government paid nuclear abortion. I wish I were exaggerating. And the villain conceives the fetus using artificial insemination.
>>25371000It's a JRPG. They were flying under the rather back in the 90s (at least in the west.) Too niche for the crazy evangelicals.
>>25371000i dont understand why it would be, it's rated M and it's not that out of the ordinary for a sci-fi story, just for sci-fi vidya
>takes a quarter of the book to explain mitochondria in boring monotone lecture style>takes another quarter of the book to explain a kidney transplant>"me need coom. gimme coom."I just saved you half of a book, /lit/. Just don't bother reading the book. You don't need to know it at all to explain anything in the video games.
>>25371274this. it's also not even scary at all, there's two sections in the whole book that have the inkling of horror and they both feel like some prologue set up
Is the part where the monster milks one of the male characters dry because it needs his semen specifically as hot as it sounds?
>>25367253I try to tell anons the story in the game is atrocious. I could not take a single plot point or character seriously. They just don't get it man.
>>25371938But Aya is really fucking hot.
>>25371890nah, the way it's depicted is that he only fully realizes what occurred moments after the deed is finished
>>25371938the deepest thing they've ever encountered is a spielberg movie or pink floyd lyrics, no wonder
>>25371938I feel like this for all the Kojima sack riders. Man is a completely rip off merchant and hack but he gets glazed by retards who have never read a single book since high school.
>>25372964i saw his panel interview with refn and it was the most hollow, pretentious thing i've thing in a while
The description of this book always came across like the shittier Ring books.Also Gamers didn't read that bullshit.
>>25373725They mostly didn't but I've seen some jewtuber "essayists" that like to pretend this book is cutting-edge or whatever
>>25371274it sounds like one of those andy weir i heckin love heckin science plots
>>25371890>as hot as it soundsNot really. The hottest part is the sex change monster.
>>25371000Japanese games, and especially JRPGs don't get nearly as much media attention, like >>25371039said.Fuck, Persona 3 had regular imagery of teens shooting themselves in the head and no outlet gave a fuck.
