pathologic 3 announcement made me return to the classic game and finally play it properly! i think my favorite part of the bachelor's route is when he talks to maria kaina (or whoever's in her body at the time) and they explain that their planned Utopia isn’t even supposed to be a 'perfect' place but instead 'the mystical manifestation of a world inscrutable and inaccessible to men' going back to the original meaning of the word irl and instead of despairing Daniil fervently agrees that this kind of unimaginable leap is worth it, no matter where it actually leads

#pathologic #the bachelor #daniil dankovsky #andrey stamatin #peter stamatin #maria kaina #nina kaina #recent interview with dybowski made me kind of apprehensive #because i love the idea of an emotional state as a fundamental game mechanic for the bachelor but #he was very focused on the idea of following the 'teacher' in Simon and in the process learning everything he was meant to learn #despite never really 'catching' the dead guy in his time loops #i feel that the head of the studio is just projecting again #and in a way that old version of the bachelor made back when he was a student in his twenties #could end up seeming more compelling in the end #but we'll SEE #i am still wildly hopeful and hype #my artwork #ALSO anybody who likes the bachelor and reads those rambling tags #you should totally check out blank monk by chekhov #its short
