Gravity Rush Remastered
The bus that time forgot

Just a good song: https://youtu.be/3zEeJ2X0uFg

I remember I bought my Vita (#teamVita) for Gravity Rush! I played thru the game and loved it despite the awful gyro controls. I think my true appreciation of the game came from the excellent PS4 remaster. I platinumed it this time and got to experience the beauty of this world at every corner.

To set up the game some Kat fell from I guess the heavens with no real memory of who she was. She ends up finding this cat that lets her control gravity, from here she helps the town which is being tormented by gravity storms and acts as kind of a super hero. She does odd jobs, has a short military career but overall mostly is the towns hero.

At one point she follows a trail that leads her to going down off the floating city farther than anyone has gone. She keeps going and as she does the game slowly starts zooming out and getting quieter and quieter. Eventually you fall so far you fall thru a giant tree. This segment literally is around 20-30 mins of just going down and down to drive home how far down you are going. Then Raven attacks, see raven is a brunette gravity shifter who shows up to attack you at various parts of your storyline and you fend her off, this time though Kat loses and falls thru the tree.

Kat wakes up in a strange cage in a stranger tree city filled with children. You eventually learn that these are a group of missing kids. Throughout the game you heard rumors and whispers about a bus full of children that fell off the edge of the world but when that happened is unclear. Kat eventually saves them with the help of Raven, they fix an ark and gravity shift it back to the town.

One of the boys Zaza is still very sad because of his lost sister Sachya who fell off the world and died. Well Raven reveals to Kat she is Sachya and then drops this bomb "Hmph. No one up there cares about these kids. Even if you found a way to get back to the city, everyone you knew would be long gone!"

It isn't clear at first until they arrive back in the main city and a year has passed despite Kat only being gone a single day. Yes the school bus had fell off the world ages ago, because in this crazy world time flows differently. Time flows normally in the city, it slows to a crawl the lower you go, and the higher you go it goes faster (An older man you can find at some point tells you about going to the kingdom above for decades but when he returns no one believes him as hes been gone a single day)

This moment opens up the Gravity Rush lore in a huge way and really begins the final arc flipping what you know about the world on its head. Its started so strangely out of nowhere as well that it completely trips the player up, gets you involved in a whole different story and then finally starts tearing down the curtain on some of this worlds mysteries.
