One thing I really dislike about Hi-Fi Rush. Chai killing seemingly sapient robots, and occasionally other humans, is pretty dissonant with the overall tone, but the dissonance seems to be part of the joke. Like the game is going “This would be kinda fucked up if you took it seriously, but nothing in this game should be taken seriously, so we’ll discreetly but repeatedly gesture at how unfunny it is, because the gesture itself is funny.” And that’s entirely too far up its own ass. It reminds me of that “Undertale Prime” post, and it demonstrates why Undertale is a dozen times better than “Undertale Prime” would have been.
(Mind you, I still dislike Undertale, but that’s me talking. I dislike almost anything postmodern that isn’t Princess Tutu.)
