In defense of (ending spoilers)

I fully support Maelle's ending, and I have personal experiences to back it up.

Maelle/Alicia is mute, severely burned, missing an eye, suffering from severe emotional trauma, and possibly in somatic pain as well. Her brother is dead. And beyond that, erasing the painting means everything and everyone else she grew to care about will have also died. Yes, she can move on to the real world, but honestly, to what. The somatic pain and issues she deals with in the real world would also be immense.

Speaking from personal experience, losing an eye and the ability to speak alone are terrible. There are more issues with losing an eye than you'd think, and not having the ability to consistently speak is horrible, and I can personally attest to that. Chronic pain can also be torturous, which I and may others know for a fact. And she has to deal with the emotional regards as well.

It's a choice between an arduous life of suffering plus extra loss from the painting, or a life without the bad and with the good.

If she can have time in the painting for her life — which may even be 100+ years — then honestly, it's worth it in my eyes. Yes, it would be very painful for Verso to have to see Maelle slowly die, but it's better than the alternative. Dealing with grief is hard enough on its own, but dealing with *everything* can be impossible, or at the very least, extremely painful for your entire life.

there's no defense for verso ending. it's all vague nonsense
>you're hurting versos soul sliver or something
what does that even mean? you don't even know what you're talking about. you don't know the rules of this world so stop making moral extrapolations of these rules you don't understand.
>she needs to accept her grief and move on. I'VE DECIDED IT FOR HER
you don't know what she needs. she's in pain all day. if she wants to play minecraft all day then let her. it's not like your situation is any more admirable. what's on the agenda today? 4 hours of fortnite followed by 6 hours of shitposting on /v/?

her mom is retarded for commandeering her daughters minecraft server
her dad is retarded for not controlling her mom and thus forcing Alicia to have to consider the decision to delete her childhood playground.
Clea is retarded for helping in destroy her own childhood playground, she might not care about it now but when she's 30 years old sitting in a empty house adorned by funko pops. labubu and other nonsense she will have wished she hung on to something of meaning from her life that she could hang on the walls.
painted verso is retarded because of every single decision he's ever made.

you're obsessing over complete nothingburger shit
if the meinkampf doesn't entertain you it's normal, maybe your preferences just changed
anyway the most fun meinkampf people have is when gambling or using factorio jiheishou modpacks, else there's survival modpacks
the root cause of your anxiety(heavy breathing) is boredom, vanilla minecraft survival is boring if you already know everything there is to know about it, the fact that everything outside an 8 chuck radius does not exist anymore and the game internally is 20 tickrate doesn't help either...

Common brain rot by paying bills and getting a shitty job, a greater societal game of getting ahead and behind. Looks like you lost the game before it even started and can only respond to stressors by moving the lever when the shock comes through, and that sums up the rest of your life. A child punch up a wood block saw infinite potential of fuel, planks and all the way down. You on the other hand is reminded that sheklestein's lever hasn't been pressed and bill hasn't been paid in that passage of time and the shock is coming to your cage.
30 dollar is a lot cheaper than most retards midlife crisis on vehicles of their childhood bedroom poster.

Poor performance is not a poor people problem, it's a poor optimization problem. (I don't know what optimization means, I just see the word being used all the time when a game doesn't hit 60fps at certain resolutions and maximum graphics settings)

They seemed to manage it like the entire era was a comic run.
Every book series followed the same formula as the average marvel comic nowadays, where they made a marketing push for issue/book 1, drove it into the ground and then moved on to another once diminishing returns hit.
It was fucking baffling, because even then they knew that formula didn't work. Last I checked, admittedly a few years ago, none of the high republic books even breached 5 figure sales.

If anything, only Capitalism has a way of controlling pollution and resource usage literally by individuals throwing money at the issue, meanwhile in a communist regime, where the government holds all power, it is impossible to stop.

Small comfy places amidst hostile environments. Like snugly well illuminated save rooms in some dingy godforsaken shitholes, or cozy lodges during snowstorms, or secure item fountain rooms amidst tough-going levels. They’re often accompanied by calming elements like soft music or warm lighting that contrast with the chaos outside, which makes them very comfy.
Sometimes there’s just a room without any particular purpose where the enemies don’t attack you. In real life, I’d just stay in that room and refuse to move forward.

Talked about it before in another thread, but one of the most subtly cynical things is that you can see Colt 6520 10mm pistols in the show, and the only reason that's the case is because some fan years before made it as a mod that made its way into the FO4 Creation Club. Not because they cared about the first games' setting oh so much that they though it should have weapons from those games.

Yeah this is just a classic example of something being shown to the player not actually happening in-game. The soul shattering is just something to indicate the player that they've been defeated, not something that actually happens in-game. I think the confusion stems from the fact that Undertale and Deltarune usually do not have much ludonarrative dissonance, and most things shown on the screen are also really happening in the game's universe, so people think the soul shattering being shown to the player also means the soul shattered in the game's universe.
