idk if its just because im a super emotional & sentimental person , but i really rly rly (many rlys later) enjoyed the use of the plant memory feathers or whatever they were called at the end of the series .. smth soo special about highlighting the power of empathy through a shared collective of anger , grief , despair, wonder , love , joy , etc … T_T .. the way everyone feels that burgeoning desire to want to be better , do better , and cultivate a community of love and peace . _AUGGGH !!!! !!!
idk how to fully describe it in the way that i wish i could , but you know that scene shortly after where a doctor connects w a visibly distressed plant to try and communicate his plan to heal her in whichever way possible , thanking her for all she’s provided and vowing to do what he can so they can begin to coexist .. T__T its just soo sweet .. or people finally seeing vash for who he is and what he represents . having direct insight into his heart and , for the first time ever , wanting the best for him. “i see.. you all know him as well .. that young man , with the gentle smile.” lkterally kill me .please please plea
+ im always thinking about the memory knives saw of the child and mother praying to the plant … the kind reverence ppl generally reserved for them , …

see if I had been doing something with Mask, i would have invested the mystery plotline into being more involved within the neath and the city itself?
like idk, its supposed to be a prequel fl game but the plot felt minimal and nothing like a Fallen London story. Maybe one of the lower rank ES story, but for a full game, on par with skies and seas, you'd expect something grandeur?
I dont know the whole details of this idea im just rambling but why not have the invesitgation tie into more areas ur not supposed to look into and answers your not supposed to know, make it so character development and story can actually happen.
OR if you really want it to be Simple and Human plot, focus more on the survival aspects of the neath and the fall. theres small hints of it there, but it would be far more brutal to actually hammer in on how much you as the character struggled. we here about food issues and people struggling, but none of it ever affects the PC. lean into that plot wise if you wanna keep the game enticing.
idk. just more stakes and more reasons to actually feel invested
the one bit during the parliment ending where things felt intense, and I knew shit was up but the PC didnt was such a strong moment. if only there had been more compelling aspects like that
