I give it credit for atmosphere and presentation, but the story itself is pretty simple.

Haven't played, can't vote. But thanks for the reminder that I need to play this one.

Gotta say though... love seeing MGS1 and MGS2 ending up within 0.01 of each.

There are things it could have done better or given more focus but they don't hold the game back too much, or stop Monika from being one of my favorite gaming characters.

Nominate The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

8/10

Ingeniously deceptive, wonderfully written characters chock full of detail and small traits that make each individual stand out, and impactful psychological moments that still stick with me long after my two playthroughs were over, deftly balancing engaging character romance & drama with some of the most shocking moments of horror in gaming, and a good sign here is that either side of the story can work on its own and be just as compelling as the other. The pacing is palpable; the constant piano loop creates an illusion of time that makes individual days seem like they last forever, as you feel stuck behind crushing anxiety and dread, one from being in an all-girls club as the only boy, and then later as these characters increasingly become more fragile and begin revealing their hidden depths to you. Everything to do with Sayori is especially well-executed, even on a first playthrough you get this idea that something isn't right with here, and I feel like that's relatable from a real-life perspective as even the closest of friends & family can hide depression behind a seeming guise of cheerfulness and normalcy.

I would say some negatives are some scenes being included strictly for shock value and not much else, often less than impactful player choice, and being able to cheat the game too easily despite its best efforts to combat that although with this last point you do have to go out of your way to do so so it does not factor heavily into my score.

The shock factor is the only thing going for this game. The characters are so unlikable and unrelatable. Monika is also one of the worst characters in fiction and her fanbase never fails to induce cringe.
