...and that's how sad the feeling gets after I'm done with it. Just finished RAINCODE and it was a great game - I'm already missing it lmao.
Won't say more cause y'know - spoilers 'n all that - but damn. That ending got to me a bit. Not as much as Chapter 4, but still - it hit. Twist was - if I'm honest - the best in the Spike Chunsoft catalogue if I'm honest. Every note just hit.
I'll feel better soon, probably tomorrow when I wake up and play some more LISA The Painful. But damn, right now I'm feelin' melancholic.
this is basically the feeling I always get when the good moment subsides, actually.
when vacations end... when an event ends... when a chapter in your life closes... it's the same feeling - a sort of mourning for the times that are now in the past while facing what comes ahead.
it's never fun when times end, but there's always the next fun time - and the one after that. and when thinking of it that way, the sadness is just a reminder of the fun I had. I won't look back and feel sad - I'll look back and feel happy that I went through it all - like with the Yakuza games.
of course it still sucks, but if things were sunshine all the time then we'd never fully appreciate the good times, right? the tears are what make the smiles wonderful.
im being overdramatic - can't help it, I'm way too emotional to rope myself back in. can't help but talk and embellish, but I really do think that what I'm saying holds worth to it.
feeling sad because you completed a genuinely fun experience... that's the best kind of sadness, no?
