hyperskate65 04/18/23 4:45:11 PM #5:	The first like four or five chapters are always heavy heavy. The rest of the game is just mildly heavy until the finale which is heavy heavy again. As others said, Y7 is a little heavier than others. 10/10 games tho. --- his comparison suggests we're closet african americans.
