C Team - Pantry

Seek a way out!


dearie me, this game is not playing

Akane and Carlos find their way out of the pantry, unknowingly using Junpei's dismembered body as a clue. we then discover D team is dead too, somehow, despite my vote choices. but that doesn't even really matter. a distraught Akane attacks me with a chainsaw. nice to see her show genuine, unambiguous affection for Junpei, though this wasn't quite the ideal manner.

anyway, the game makes me decide who I think killed Junpei, so I can "remove them". Carlos is weird. it doesn't like my answers of Zero, Eric, Sigma ("the dead cannot kill anyone") or Gab ("how could a dog do it?"). I answer both Akane and Carlos in turn, resulting in Carlos killing either Akane or himself in a fairly gory fashion. weirdly, the latter results in an instant game over, while the Akane death path allows me to hypothetically continue on - a curious development considering who should be the most important characters here.

anyway, lots to chew on here:

- why did my unambiguous vote choices lead to what seems like several possible outcomes? is the game treating each vote in a vacuum, and giving me every possibility based on that? that would explain D team being dead in the C path, since I did vote for them. this seems like a mildly baffling plot design choice, but okay.
- assuming it's Zero's plan somehow, why on earth did Junpei get chopped up for following the rules of the game? I was kind of joking about the Saw movies comparison earlier, but this definitely has a hint of the later movie traps, which are deliberately unfair. Sigma and Akane have a lot to answer for, but at least their games broadly followed the rules (bracelet hijinx aside). I'm getting the distinct feeling that Zero isn't on the side of good this time.
- on a lighter note, d'awww Akane. if she wasn't such a total Macchiavellian sociopath, I think her and Junpei could have been very happy together.

that might do for tonight! any suggestions about where to go next, or should I just jump around as I fancy?
