pov: you are a nosy anthropologist
im a cultural anthropologist, and i can’t tell you how much this game reminded me of working in the field. running around like an idiot, getting lost, trying to figure out what’s going on, misunderstanding what people are trying to tell you, etc. etc.
but like the field, you slowly gain confidence; understanding more and more. you still make blunders but each time it’s easier to find your footing. you also begin to note the different values and customs each group has, which comes in handy for translation later. anyways, there’s a lot to love about this game but the overall experience really struck me. i could honestly do another play through where i just take notes on the various cultural differences.
