Well, most people- especially those who are already fans of the game- probably don't have the same super strict, self imposed rule where they refuse to play a whole genre of games outside the month of October lmao.
Though honestly, horror is more of a tone that VotV carries as opposed to it's base genre. It's a lot more of an "immersive sim" with some horror theming than a straight horror game. So good news, you CAN still enjoy it the rest of the year too!!
?? ..Idol? I don't...know them? At all? I just think the game is really neat...you don't find a lot of openform imsim-adjacent horror games. It's neat, to me. Not really idolizing the team responsible
Regardless! I wasn't being hostile- passive aggressively or otherwise. Mostly just kind of amused, attempting to poke a little humor- not taking this as a serious matter or w/e. Just noting that it seemed silly, to me, and that it doesn't really have to keep you from playing the next build, if you're really that excited about it! Like a 'haha, good news- its *technically* more like this than that, so you totally *could* still play it!' ..not like, a vicious personal attack.. lol oops
I mean, I guess the genre bit wasn't mean to be humorous? That was legitimately supposed to provide some clarification, because I know it's kind of one of those lesser-known 'weirdo' genres that most people don't know or talk about a lot, but it's a genre that I (a weirdo) really enjoy. Sorry that didn't come through, apparently. If I knew it was going to cause this much offense, I wouldnt have bothered lol. Soo My bad, I hope things get better soon!
