Chapter 1: Make Dark Fantasy Great Again (1)
It lulls players into a false sense of security with a peaceful atmosphere. Then it kills them.
All of them. Heroines or not, it doesn’t matter.
Another Tale—a notoriously dark fantasy game.
Naturally, I never played it myself. Killing heroines is taboo in our industry. We’re told not to touch, write, or even think about such things.
I was more of a spectator, watching from afar as the first wave of gamers obliviously blew themselves up and the reckless followers prepared to meet the same fate.
For a while, Another Tale was popular in that way.
YouTube Shorts channels featured videos titled [Reactions of Players to the Ultimate Backstabbing Game], edited compilations of posts from Another Tale forum users.
Famous streamers uploaded videos of themselves playing Another Tale and writhing in agony.
Instead of playing the game directly, others enjoyed the core of the game through YouTube, the forum, and wiki pages.
I participated in the trend the same way. Which, in other words, means I don’t know much about Another Tale. I barely remember anything about it.
I probably wouldn’t even recognize the main character if I saw them. Unless I saw the scene where they die, that might jog my memory.
