I havent logged in this app for literal months but I’ve recently been playing Tears of Themis and I needed somewhere to rant and scream at the void without a 100 character limitations in my way sjjsjs
So I’ve been playing one of the older ToT events, A Love Poem to Skadi (a very good event btw!) and there’s just one thing that the game mentions that I can’t for the life of me get out of my head, and it’s the fact that Artem Wing somehow knows Akkadian.
Okay so walk with me here, when you go in the mansion to explore, each character has their own set of expertise and knowledge that can help you find clues, and for the most part those expertise make sense! Vyn is a doctor so he knows about doctor things, Luke is a detective so he knows detective things, Marius is an artist so he knows artist things, and Artem is a lawyer so he knows…. Akkadian?? It’s just so random and out of the blue because it’s never explained why he knows that (or at least not that I know of),, other than “I study the Code of Hammurabi so that’s why I know Akkadian” and it’s like sir why were you studying the Code of Hammurabi 😭😭
like I know the real reason for that is because of plot convenience and they needed a character that spoke another language to decipher the clues (plus unlike all the other characters they couldn’t center the clues around his job profession because mc is also a lawyer and it wouldn’t make sense for mc to rely on artem in regards to a law related clue because she’s a really good lawyer) and all the other characters quotas were already filled so they threw that skillset onto Artem (along with the fact that Artem having random hobbies that are never mentioned past the first introduction is kind of his shtick and a running gag in the game but I digress-) but that’s not nearly as fun as saying Artem is a secret history nerd, who has a vast knowledge of world history because he spent so much of his free time during his youth reading and studying about other cultures and histories, now is it?
ANYWAYS that’s all to say, artem the historian agenda pass it on!
