So I've picked Digital Devil Saga up again after a couple years' hiatus. I was on the last level and I did a poor job of raising my characters so I got frustrated and stopped. And there were other reasons too but I won't get into that. Point being, I loved Gale. I loved Gale very much... maybe it was the fact that we got to watch his personality emerge, maybe because he was the outcast of the group by no fault of his own, maybe it was because he struggled with the anomaly of not comprehending things when his purpose in life was to study and strategically understand his environment therefore raising questions about who he was and why he was not experiencing the same changes in emotion and motivation as his teammates. I can identify a lot with him sometimes.
Digital Devil Saga. It's sexy. Its stylized. It has cannibalism. I suggest RPG fans play it. It's good enough to tear me away from Balthier long enough to try and finish the final level.
Edit
Hah, who'd have thought the majority of the comments on this pic would be about Steve Blum ^^ But I have seen the error of my ways. I'm sorry Steve, I do love you as Gale. I promise to no longer badmouth you as long as you promise to keep sneaking into my favorite games and taking me by surprise.
pps.... play Psychonauts
And...He's totally thinking of Jenna.
