So I couldn't get this out of my mind after seeing it. I know the comparison is quite specious really, but the imagery and unfurling of a 'message' just made me think of Neutral and Oldman and the Method Tank. This was the only place I could think of to share my strange visual associations...

For context - two individuals went to the highest point of the Empire State Building on 1 July and unveiled a banner about the power of love and one proposed to the other. Then they got arrested (just like Neutral and Oldman?!)

Got nmh1 and 2 LRG, too, just couldn’t fit it into a picture.
For some reason it made me turn my picture into a video 😭😭

i like the old man

I think it’s weird that pre orders aren’t available for a Catherine version. Will it be ported to Catherine later, or will it just not be released? Would be really annoying it got a Bob port but not a Catherine one.

Just some simple stuff, probably do the other meter later

Explaining some of the more controversial ones, cuz it’d take years to write about what I like/dislike about all characters.
I put Mondo there by accident, and didn’t realise until just now. I wasn’t gonna include him in the ranking for spoiler reasons, but I’d put him at s tier.
The average fsr tier is so low because, I don’t think they’re bad characters, but they exist for the sole purpose of relating to a metaphor or an emotion. For example, you spend a chapter being fucked around by a fascist because he views human life as a game, and he wants his kid to have a new game. I like the emotions that the character inflict, mainly anger, but I feel they just lack a lot of depth or complexity.
And for rank D, there’s a lot of 25th ward characters because that’s just the game. Culture-less society without emotion. The only one peole might heavily disagree is Kuro. Idk why, I just never found her to be well written. The tier list didn’t include any RIADM characters. Idk any of the characters in “???” Tier. I assume most are from MS, but I haven’t played it, sadly.

Love the game, love the music but I'm tired of having to go on Youtube and watch ads just to listen to the Soundtrack.
Suda51, please release an official soundtrack!

Played around with the new photo mode and it is so refreshing to replay the game and capture cool combat moments. Only drawback is photo mode can't be used during Bloody Summer attacks, and I wish that some of these filters like Retro and Sketch could be used as a full on gameplay filter instead of only in Photo Mode.

Title, I can somewhat understand both Shiroyabu and Midori being in the computer the whole game as almost like cyberspace enities, and Sumio having changes his name and his appearance for the 100th time. But for these 2, I didn't even realize it was them up until after re-reading their Cameos in TSA and recognizing them as more than just, the two guys who show up at the end of 25th ward.

And I still don't know if there is an actual reason here other than funni. Because if anything, wouldn't the time traveling police officers, be the two most likely to be the most unchanged for a game about time traveling police ?

I do like the idea of it being sort of reflective of the whole punk game dev philosophy grasshopper has, as they have this thing of almost like a motif being under tonally repeated, similar to how we have multiple characters called Travis, Juliet, Ayame, Modo or Garcia(n).

-But I was wondering if there was a deliberate reason for this besides that given this seems like it is them, rather than just a Travis Bell vs Travis Touchdown situation.
