    You will play Fear&Hunger and feel true horror, you will play the lisa series and the masterfully fan made side stories and it’ll change you forever . You will play off and find sense in it’s nonsense.

      You WILL play Eastward! For the first 30 minutes at least, and I’ll be totally understanding if you decide its not your cup of tea.

      Warning: all of those games contain stuff that can fuck you up if you’re not expecting them, so check trigger warnings as required. That said, I’d also add OMORI and Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass to the list - IMO they are much better than OFF as both games and stories while playing with similar themes.

          Personally it’s more the story for me. Not only it deals with some heavy themes, it’s such a constant descent of things getting worse and worse and worse, full of pretty much arbitrary misery, that at some point I just don’t feel motivated to keep going.

          For what is worth I can agree that calling it the Painful RPG is on point.

          I can handle turn-based RPGs, even difficult ones. I do like OFF a whole lot. It’s surreal setting and mysterious quest was much more compelling for me.
