splend and I are BACK ON OUR BULLSHIT despite being in different countries! \o/ The Quarry was 75% off over xmas, we both theoretically have laptops that can run it, let's go gamers.

Gotta say, I find the multiplayer REALLY WEIRD on this one. I was expecting it to be like The Dark Pictures Anthology, where everyone picks some characters and we just switch control as the story progresses. Instead, it's one person gets to play, and everyone else only gets to vote on decisions. Which is weird. Especially as QTEs seem to be votes as well. (Sorry Laura for the whacks to the head you took before we figured that out.) Like, I'm okay with it! It means that we have time to argue discuss our decisions, which is always good. It's just feels like a weird step backwards.

Anyway, spoilers through the prologue! tl;dr shockingly the game based on summer camp horror movies has literally no characters that make good decisions, news at ten. And I'm kinda looking at the characters going "rionaleonhart ships SOME OF YOU, it's going to be the messiest disaster pair, and I'm so excited to read the fic."
