Talk:Shin Megami Tensei: If... Incident/@comment-7706473-20130410044218

I'm giving you a digitalis obscura for choosing a fantastic and hidden gem (first Megaten game with protag swapping, yes!, one that is far from loved enough. Nevertheless, despitegood writing and pacing, I think this needs a bit work. It may just be my relative tolerance for 'the sprites were different' but I wasn't too scared from this; that being said, I did like the narrator being fairly non-plussed at the end; and as always, it's good when no ridiculous unexplained things happens - at least without prior explanation.

Some part of me thinks that if any game did have horrible eldritch consequences it'd be Megaten, though. But that aside, I liked the 'moral' of the story, more then it's potential as a pasta. That isn't to say the pasta was bad - quite the opposite! - but you had a good twist on the whole 'game does something scary' formula.

But speaking personally, is death really inevitable? Isn't the primordial Chaos of life stronger, more roiling, more undefatiguable than any pre-ordained fate..? ;)
