Boyfriend Dungeon Review (Swift)
I am. So. Mad.
So I enjoyed a good amount of the gameplay/the idea of a lot of the characters but oof. Where it fails it fails bad.
That ending filled me with a rage I can't quite explain.
Like I'm sorry we just forgave basically Jeffery Dahmer and told him to get therapy because he's sad when he's been kidnapping our friends, cutting bits off of them, and making them into Frankenstein's monster.
He needs to go to jail.
Sure they heal back whatever bits get cut off of them, but he dumped them in freaking dungeons to literally die?? Seven literally lost 2 weeks of his life?? And my 7 sword boyfriends are ok with just telling him to get therapy??
And then to top it all off, Sunder dumps me because 'reasons'.
The roguelike elements were fun, Seven is OP. Jonah is probably the worst weapon gameplay wise bc hes so slow.
Now for my petty squabbles:
1. Valeria managed to be somehow specially curated to be exactly the worst waifu for me. See, I work in museums. She knows fuck all about museums. Liberate art? Put it in public places for all to see? Lady, that's what a museum is!! Otherwise it's in some rich assholes private collection!! And the museum her so different girl version of Birth of Venus is in? Only costs $12 to get into and is free on sundays and to people under 18 and people with certain disabilities (I was so mad I looked it up). They go out of their way to give it away. Museums may have art worth 500 zillion dollars in their collections but that dosent mean they have tha kinda money sitting around. They have to pay their employees and keep the lights on somehow lady.
Spray painting the fucking louvre? A fucking historical ass palace with more security than anything? For srs? Like they are trying to pose her as Banksy or the Guerilla Girls when she dosen't have a reason to do this beyond 'art should be free!' Like girly, if you were trying to tell political messages or something maybe I'd be a little behind you. But no. Making ME spray paint a building I know is probably mostly volunteer employed in a small town like this??
And she has her whole speech about hating perfect art but then her favorite painting is a freaking realism piece like smh girl. Perfection was the goal of the painter.
And then of course, of course, she hates ducks. And bitches about them after inviting me to a freaking date at a park?? I freaking birdwatch, like how was she so wildly specifically made to be everything I hate I have no idea.
NVM her manic pixie dream girl tendencies
or the incestuous 3 way relationship she was in. Thats right. incestuous. She said it as a 3 way, not as a 'they were both dating me' thing. 3 way means all 3 are in a unanimous relationship. Yikes.
2. Issac. Man whines about wealth inequality and wanting to make a difference and invests in freaking grindr for weapons and is surprised when his dad isn't thrilled. You wanna do something about wealth inequality son? Maybe do something like fight the fact that clearly weapons are discriminated against in the workplace going by Jonah. Thats an actually useful cause.
Issac is a petty little whiner baby and would probably be a pretty miserable husband longterm.
3. What is appealing about Jonah he is a unemployed dude spending his time drinking beer on the beach and quitting work the moment its a little rough rather than contacting the apparently nonexistent HR department of that restaurant. Like, I get the teddy bear pacifist dealio- and had they say, had him work for the cat cafe I think he'd have been perfect. But he's unemployed and in his like, late 20s? with no prospects? nty.
4. Sawyer is like that freshman in college you baby and help out but do not date.
5. Why can't I save Sunder from Mandy. I honestly assumed part of his story would be realizing she was gaslight/gatekeep/girlbossing him since she tries to scare everyone away from him and is so controlling to him.
Yea. I'm mad.
