This may be a culture difference... lol
I have NEVER seen a town small enough to not have at the bare minimum a medical center.
I duknow... what if the mc was 18 and Tartaglia 17?
Could work! ^_^
But I do get the point, all things considered.
Plus his obsession with his gf, so, yeah... *sigh*
Really? *raises an eyebrow* Humans are truly strange creatures...
Then again, I'm pretty sure I'm halfway to sociopathy, so I wouldn't know normal if it hit me in the face.
Depends on the game tho.
In Pact With a Witch there's the exact same type choice where they try and force your hand, but if you outmaneuver it, you get a whole different ending. (I think they had some plans to write a separate path there, but haven't gotten around to it, so they made it a summary end of the path instead.)
I can't know if the mouse forcing, when there is -clearly- a choice, means some force is trying to control your mind and you need to break out of it or not. It's very confusing, and I'm very stubborn --especially about avoiding churches.
It IS a pretty cool game mechanism, but certain overly stubborn readers will try to get out of it anyway I fear. lol
I have very strong opinions, and is not very good at wording my feedback nicely I fear.
The sad thing is that I sound a million times nicer than I used to. lol
And speaking as a writer myself I've gotten a lot of feedback, some of it sounding extremely harsh, far worse than me (especially on my older stories that wasn't as well-written as my newer ones), but I always found it helpful, because how can you improve as an artist if you don't know what you're doing wrong or could do better?
Yupp, totally forever 15. Always have been, always will be. ^_^
But my ID will still get me into any bar, so no worries. :p
The problem with my feedback I think, is that I tend to be very direct and honest when I talk.
And my attempts of joking probably don't sound as funny as it does to me.
It's a work in progress, but I'm working on it.
