“At least Spoon likes you.” And maybe that’s the only approval he really needs.Knockoff_Indulgences Fandoms: Fallen Hero Series - Malin Rydén “That’s all we can do, really.” “That’s true.” A flash of a smile, half teasing, half fond. “I guess neither of us is used to getting along.” “We can work on it.” You shrug. Just a stray suspicion, nothing to worry about. Me.” “That’s my line,” he says, the smile now fully soft. “I know what you mean.” You once more fall in step next to him. Old memories.” He rubs his face and continues to walk. “I suppose I am.” Chen frowns as he looks at you, but the frown softens into a smile as you pretend innocence. If there’s a hint of suspicion, you can’t let him get to you. “You’re being weirder than usual,” you say with a laugh. #“You’re being weirder than usual,” I say with a laugh. The most jarring one during conversation with steel when we try to brush him off after noticing his suspicion of our behaviour:
Still not done, and still excited to see what else I have yet to discover!īy the way, what’s the best place to report minor bugs and/or typos? Should I send those to the game’s support email, just post them in a reply to this thread, or something else?

The MC’s incredibly idiosyncratic PoV, and the ways it’s used to hide things in plain sight in the narrative, is one of my favorite parts of Fallen Hero's storytelling, so I was happy to see it on full display here. Most of all, I love all the new insight you can get into the characters, and how it completely recontextualizes some of their behavior-especially if you’ve been viewing them through the lens of our favorite unreliable narrator. (I also had not expected the text to go anywhere near as hard as it does on the whole “ lab-grown undercover agent as autistic metaphor” thing-I’d figured that was just me bringing personal context to my reading!-but I’m not complaining about that either.) Oh, and as someone who played their first MC as questioning their gender, discovering how beautifully that element integrated into the story (if you chose to pursue it) felt almost like a gift to me personally. I love the experience of “interactive fiction as collaborative storytelling”, and Retribution has nailed it so far. Since I’m one of those roleplayer types who develops detailed mental images of my characters and decides everything by “what would they do?”, it’s always kind of a magical experience when my unreasonably-specific headcanon doesn’t bump up against the limitations of the medium. I’m also surprised and delighted by how smoothly each playthrough so far has created a story that, despite my knowing otherwise, feels tailor-made for the specific character I’m playing. I’m on my fourth playthrough (no I don’t have too many MCs, shush) and still tripping over new major reveals and plot developments with each one. I was already impressed by how much playthroughs of Rebirth could vary the sheer amount of branching, optional scenes/reveals, and attention to detail in Retribution is mind-blowing (and leaves me awed and slightly terrified by the idea of building two more games on top). I’ve been playing for the past week and counting and, at risk of sounding hyperbolic, it’s surpassed my wildest expectations. I’ve been avoiding this thread and doing most of my flailing/speculation elsewhere for fear of spoilers ( here, for anyone else who likes popcorning at new players), but since it seems unlikely the game will run out of secrets any time soon, I felt I had to say something to express my appreciation here.
