You’re acting like they’re objective plot holes when they’re not.MC who is a teenager, makes the train trip twice in the very short span of the game. Josy who has a job and savings and is a teenager could surely make the trip.
This is exactly what I'm talking about, these pathetic quibbles to quash any criticism of the game are so damn cringy.
As I've said before like the game as much as you want. But if you had any candor you would have to candidly admit that there are substantial flaws in the plot of this game.
Your argument works both ways, people should stop defending it without any thought and you need to stop picking at plot points and acting like they’re objectively bad.
Maybe the “distance” wasn’t necessarily one of actual physical separation but Maya/Josy doing exactly what they’re doing this episode again. They’re metres from one another at the moment and not speaking or seeing each other. They went “long distance” and shit broke down because Maya’s response to stress is to turtle up in the dark and not put any effort into the relationship and Josy just leaves her to it.
It’s established in the plot that’s how they react. Just because it isn’t explicitly stated it doesn’t make it a “pathetic quibble” designed to “quash” any grandiloquent criticism of the game.
Story has flaws. Not even close to perfect (if that even exists in literature). But you’re just the other side of the same coin as the people you’re calling cringey.
