Speed Dates

More than a game.

Awkward questions with wild answers that oftentimes don't actually correspond to whatever Murat (the protagonist) actually says. One girl asked if I like talking to people on the internet in a forum or dictionary (machine translation might be wrong here?) and when I said "no", Murat just suddenly started talking about the excess of misinformation and how people shouldn't be allowed to use the internet unless they pass a test. What the hell? You cannot skip scenes. Some dates are incredibly boring, others are short but don't give you much to work with, and then there's some that are just outright uncomfortable.

You have to read the subtitles FAST though. Not many options you can pick but still fun for stream.
