In This Episode:

Tender Loving Care

Episode Notes:

Fair warning, this game attempts to deal with topics including PTSD, grief, and mental illness in a manner that comes off as campy, trivializing, and unrealistic. There's also a decent amount of nudity in here, if you wanna just skip to those parts. AND... AND this time we get creepy dolls!

Honestly, this might be the most uncomfortable I've ever been watching a Giant Bomb video. What a weird, freaky and creepy ride.

That said, reading that the actress playing the nurse (Beth Tegarden) died at just 49 made me sad, way to young.

I've watched this three times now from beginning to end and this along with the playthroughs of until dawn, life is strange, contradiction and the metal gears are the best things giant bomb has made. I revisit those too.

I just noticed that this game/movie literally uses music from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde (3rd act prelude) at 33:58. That's actually not a bad choice, given the context of the opera.

That does not make this game any better, though.
