2 months agoYeah, but it’s evergreen. Loads of people haven’t played it or finished it, or were even born when it came out, and might be learning about it just now.
For me the gameplay was kinda meh and actually frustrating at times, but the way it tells the story was so nice and so perfectly fit the mechanics, that made it worth it. So I guess think twice about a “fun fact” with no spoiler tag that gives away something so important for enjoying the game.
Interesting how Washington, DC used to be within the Southern accent territory, but this has died out to mostly older speakers.
The anecdote that really hits this home for me is that in 2006 they updated the voice on the metro which said “Doors closing, please stand clear of the doors.” The old voice had a southern accent but the new voice did not.
