✦ AI summary

Pesterquest is a visual novel that heavily relies on Homestuck fan service and existing lore, making it inaccessible to newcomers while existing fans are divided on its execution. Those who appreciate the character interactions find value in reconnecting with the cast, but many criticize the writing for being boring, containing plot holes, and mischaracterizing beloved characters with what they see as poor creative choices. Most reviewers suggest this is only for dedicated Homestuck enthusiasts willing to overlook its narrative shortcomings.

This game has you playing as a time traveling gaslighting (NOT) "mailman" with no pants trying to convince a bunch of 13yos that its okay for them to be hanging around. TL;DR you play as super-pedophile. very odd. Cant just be me seeing how odd the choices are.

Pesterquest is a pretty basic visual novel, and honestly, I found it kinda boring. The story is nothing too remarkable, and most of the episodes didn't really leave much of an impression on me. The game also relies heavily on Homestuck lore and references, so if you're not already familiar with the series, a lot of the dialogue probably won't mean much. Not really my thing. Not recommended.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mischaracterization + plotholes. It's essentially a snoozefest of the writers projecting their own awful headcanons onto the characters.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
