Played through all of this multiple times and never saw starting slow then going faster as an issue. That is just realism.

Not sure who started this ridiculous train of thought, probably on my ignored list at present but I know that Mot is just playing devil's advocate here so I thought I'd join the boisterous banter to inject a bit of a reality check... Have a great day my friends, motseer and Dimitri57 and the rest of our motley crew here too... RFFR brothers...

Adventure ever on, Phat:cool:(y)

Should I give you some "recommendations" where "I need to play it again" is a sacrifice?:whistle::sneaky:

Considering the amount of peoples that are still traumatized by it even today, I admit that I'm glad I didn't tried yet.
Especially considering my mental state right now, maybe in the future I will try, but certainly not now. :)

It really isn't that traumatizing in all fairness. Or that great if a VN either all things considered.

Well, of all the people I read writing about it described it as a bad experience, of course i'm only reporting what they wrote, so my post need to be taken with a grain of salt ( big, always).
Anyway I don't intend to try it now, like I said I'm not in the right mind set for trying nothing more sad than Pac-Man so...
Maybe one day I will give it a try. :)

Dylan, we meet each other in many threads, believe me, the game in question is very good with quite memorable characters and a nice story. The end, as you may be aware, is something you will never forget. Is it nice? No. But it is unforgettable.
I consider it a ritual of passage into a mature appreciation of AVN's. LoF is excruciatingly painful, and should NOT be played if you are in a sensitive stage in your life. AL, should be played when you are in a strong stage in your life. Both are important and unforgettable.

Pay attention, your stage in life is what will determine how you'll be affected.

Peace :)

I was at a really bad stage in my life when I played LoF. To me it helped pull me back from the abyss I was staring into. The theme of LoF was something I was all too familiar with as a paramedic.

LoF made me cry for 3 straight hours like I probably only cried 3 or 4 times in my life. It really hits fucking hard.

True, and yes I completely agree with you both LoF and AL are games that I'm not ready to play as of right now, I need games that can relax me nothing more nothing less, I really couldn't afford anything else.
I stopped looking the NCIS and CSI series, and they are pretty tame in comparison imho, just to give you an idea of my state of mind so....
Thank you so much for you words of advice and for your kindness, I'm very happy to be part of this community because you're all helping me tremendously in this moment of my life, and this has no price for me it's amazing both for my heart and my mind. :)

I would heavily disagree with the notion that Acting Lessons would be "important" to everyone who's mentally stable enough to handle it. I'm not here to lambast anyone's opinion on a game, that's not my point, but similarly it's certainly not objectively great for everyone that isn't sensitive. You find it important to you, that's great. I find it a colossal waste of time that engages in the worst form of schock-baiting, with all the equivalent finesse that jump scares have in horror stories.

The only reason I'm saying this is because no one should feel like that's a title that they have to try, or that they just weren't mentally prepared for it if the "twist" was something they didn't enjoy. If anything, stories with cheap "twists" like that are more universally despised than they are praised, no matter the media. So it's much more accurate to consider it a niche interest than something for everyone.

I know nothing about LoF but if it's anything like AL then I know to stay away.

Again, not here to rain on anyone's parade. But it's an injustice to those who haven't played it to make them think AL is anything like a must-try.

We got you, man! I guess I hadn't realized you haven't been around as much until all this talk of mental stress. I hope you are doing better and I'm glad to see you here. DM me any time you need to unload, dude. I promise I'll read it and respond. Sometimes it helps to be able to just rant, ya know? Jus' Sayin':cool:
