I'm a dick, according to the snap judgement that I made not seconds after starting this game. Full truth: I've been very against, not reluctant, to playing this at all, let alone doing a let's play of it. Why? Because I'm scared of clowns and generally hate them on the standard level. Not classic clowning, mind you, but big top annoying, dick-bag lemme get in your personal space and embarrass you while giving you everlasting blackened shit-dreams from the middle-distance of your childhood traumas. Hate em.
That is what we like to call a personal bias or good old fashioned prejudice, which is a something that I am vocally against. Thus I become the hypocrite for refusing to play this game.
I have a friend, Jenny (aka Kimchica), who has raved about this game as a positive (which it is), uplifting (which it is) and high-quality (yup, that too) experience. Even with her word, it took me an age to load Dropsy. I'm so glad I did.
Watch the video. It almost immediately hooks me (save for the opening bit and nightmare sequence which...well, see above for my thoughts on clowns).
At the risk of sounding further preachy: Don't judge folk based on a previous experience. They may, and most likely will, surprise you.
Have the best day you've ever had.
thanks Andrew! glad you're enjoying it! :0)
