Oh god, please don’t make me talk about myself.
There’s a lot going on here that indicates AI, not the least being that for something that’s stylized to be a pencil illustration, the linework and colors are way too consistent. Also note:
Ketamine/Stimulant abuse. Elmo’s probably not doing so hot since he’s realized coups are actual work and not just shitposting thirty tweets and hour.
I tried the stupid drug
God yeah caving is such a bad idea unless it’s already confirmed safe to be in. In addition to the well-publicized risk of getting stuck in a pocket with the blood pooling to your head, you’ve got collapses and cave-ins, wild animals, noxious gasses, lack of air circulation, there are so many reasons not to go into a cave you don’t already know is safe.
So, I agree with the principle of your statement but the point that the discussion around the original post makes is that the writing is largely inextricable from the politicized plot of the middle-aged divorced alcoholic amnesiac cop.
Like, the whole reason you spend the better part of the game reconstructing your ideology around neoliberalism, fascism, communism, or centrism is because the world around you has failed you in such spectacular fashion, as it has literally everyone else in Martinaise, and while I’d agree that the expression of that sentiment shouldn’t just be restricted to a middle-aged cishet white guy, it would be a wasted effort in a game about finding your cat in a village in the alps which is, per the post’s complaints, ostensibly apolitical.
I mean, it is very clearly AI. If you need another thing, the hair covers the ears at different levels in each panel. Real artists don’t do that, because why the fuck would they bother drawing the ears different three times in one comic, AI doesn’t know any better.
