I've always ridden the line too far in the other direction, and I've been trying to learn how to be a little more selfish lately. It's a difficult thing to get right!

I want to jab NPCs with healing needles over and over, to no reaction, until one randomly poisons them instead and every single shopkeep instantly opens fire on me
I want to slip off a cliff in the hub and permanently lose 12 stats

Okay good, I was worried I was talking your ear off about it 😝
Ok let's see... you specifically looking for Complex Emotions stuff, or nonchronological stories...? I feel like my comics knowledge is pretty limited, but if we're expanding into games or other media, I can summon a list

Tunic and Blue Prince are obvious top picks here, but I think it applies to non puzzle stuff, too
Super Metroid teaching you about secret moves by watching the friendly animals. Snake Eater leaving you to piece together Ocelot's family history. Facts told by shaping the empty space around them

Really loved how often one throwaway line would completely recontextualize an entire other story... my favorite was the old woman who was scared to do anything, including "go all the way up to the attic", only to find out elsewhere the attic is a small room in the basement
It was always in reach...

Ughh. Hope you figure it out soon, errant smoke alarms are stressful even if you're certain it's a false positive :/

what if the two screens were detachable- oh, or even disconnected entirely? and the touch screen was handheld, but the other screen was big and stood on your TV stand, and you could play Nintendoland on it,

Sometimes that's a sign you should change the batteries, but I also once had 2 smoke alarms that would go off randomly
Turned out they'd both been manufactured on the same day, and the fire department suspected they just shared a manufacturing flaw

lmfao I've seen some absolutely wild sudoku variants but a gridless one would REALLY take the cake

this isn't me saying "all games must be on a grid", but if you specifically advertise that you've taken hard numbers OUT of a genre that usually has em, I'm......... reserved
