this is almost certainly a troll, but it still caused me physical pain, so it deserves to be shared
also, kotaro uchikoshi seems pretty cool. the thread links to some of his good tweets

It’s a very difficult game to explain thematically. There’s a lot of different readings of it, but primarily the main villain is a deeply misogynistic mentally unstable person while the main characters are in some way victims of abuse or mental issues themselves as well, and the ultimate lesson I think the game is trying to instill is a positive one. HOWEVER the game still has a very bizarre relation with portraying abuse and it’s definitely possible to read its “good” ending as being deeply ironic and is in fact pushing a nihilistic and misogynistic worldview, and frankly Im not too unsure if that reading. Either way, it is genuinely a fascinating read as somebody who doesn’t read VNs a lot, but it genuinely hard to stomach and it’s really hard to decipher what’s supposed to be ironic, what’s just there to sell, and how genuine it’s trying to be. KILLER sounds track either way. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bZWd_7Ud-Lc
what vns have you read?
A good chunk of fate and Higurashi which I need to get back to, Cartagra which I only read so I can start Kara no Shojo, Fata no Morgana, and Subahibi.
higurashi is good, and i assume you've already been told to read umineko after it. ryukishi07 is really fantastic at dealing with abuse, among other things
umineko also has a killer ost
