Jack's immediate reaction to the boyfriend's apartment is just proof that this game is a masterclass in environmental storytelling.

[@aliceramdom.s]

I thought this person was a lesbian or dated a trans guy

[@animeartist888]

Ironically, I really loved the boyfriend's apartment aesthetic. I love the modern look and everything being all color-matchy and such. It was maybe a little too neat and sterile, but I was sad at Jack's instant reaction to it lol. People with different aesthetics and/or different vibes can absolutely work well together, and the being able to move his stuff to fit ours in made me think it might've worked out. I would really love if maybe something like finding a place for the diploma would change the way the story went. But that might be asking too much from a game like this haha

[@Jockdog]

I felt SO vindicated after seeing his reaction to that part. I had a viscerally awful reaction to it -- right down to feeling sick shoving the diploma under the bed -- and he says it perfectly: Someone who loves you will make space for you. It makes the sequence for their girlfriend's moving in that much more of a contrast as space is already made, even going so far as to get new (and matching!) bedside tables, closet storage, etc.

[@x_8643]

Unpacking in the boyfriend’s place is so well designed to be more and more frustrating as you go. The fact that the diploma is one of the last things you’ll probably unpack (when you’re already feeling uneasy) and then you HAVE to put it UNDER THE BED…makes you just feel like NOPE IM OUT. well done designers!

[@HannahG_x]

You can also put it above the toilet xD the only place on the wall it will fit

[@CadgerChristmasLightShow]

I was getting frustrated unpacking in the boyfriends house to the point where i gave up making it look nice. I was just trying to cram anything where it could fit. Excellent subtle storytelling, done almost through the players emotions.

[@HoneyxLime]

I hated the boyfriend’s place!! 😭😭😭

[@smallfry3906]

A little detail I absolutely love is the picture of the mc and her ex-boyfriend in the tidy apartment can be put on the fridge no problem. But then in the childhood room if you hang it up on the cork board above the bed before moving it to the cabinet, one of the pins goes straight through his face. That little detail really tells you how angry and hurt she was - I’m gonna guess he cheated on her or something along those lines

[@Godrocks1998]

As someone pointed out, she started out super sporty, rock climbing, etc, but then it all of a sudden stopped and she had a cane and pain meds, insinuating she was probably very injured and had to recover and unable to continue. My guess is that he treated her like crap during her recovery, and yeah, possibly even cheated on her because she couldnt put out, and then dumped her.

[@leeelahglitz47]

To me, it seemed like he was very sporty and athletic, if you look at his gym equipment and the protein powder. I'm guessing the main character started out sporty but hurt herself and ended up needing pain medication and couldn't walk properly throughout her recovery so she turned more towards her art and writing, and the guy was the complete opposite of her, so they broke up.

[@the.dark.side.of.the.moon_]

Or he simply didn’t respect her at all given the fact that he didn’t even let her hang her own diploma on one of the walls. This is just frustrating, dismissing and disrespectful.

[@ChuchiiChoo]

i love that she stole his incense burner from his bedside table (52:00), its such a small thing but his house gave me ocd vibes and if thats true then it will drive him mad looking for it (she unpacks it when she's back home in her bedroom 59:31) its petty revenge and im here for it.

[@Barys41]

I think it was worse, she did not fit in his agenda. "I could barely fit my things there" See how the only place for her diploma or loved things was under the bed or inside the wardrobe. He did not want her in that space since beggining. Look at the difference when she moved in with her GF, that there were new bookshelf, drawers or nightstand for her.@@Godrocks1998

[@kourtneycarroll4081]

The underlying story of the main character getting hurt always gets to me. She has rock climbing gear one time and then the next has back pain medicine and a cane.

[@bisexualdisasterlol]

Okay, now that is a neat detail I didn't pick up on. It's amazing how the developer thought of these things and how they incorporated it in to such a simple game.

[@martyr3435]

but its so cute how she still keeps up with things like yoga!! im pretty sure she has MS, which is something that you take vitamin d tablets for because its a vit d deficiency (she often has the tablets in the bathroom) and my dad has MS and he walks with a stick and has back pains pretty frequently, i love the thought that goes into this game

[@simplyeason]

i assume the apartment at 50:50 is when the character is in a relationship with a guy and the character is queer. maybe signifying that they don’t match because of the style difference and difficulty in finding space.

I've not seen anyone mention it, but it's really touching to see that the MC is disabled in some way - they carry medicine with them from the very beginning, then heating pads for back pains, and the moment they move in to their own place they get a cane that follows them to the new house... not to mention the medicine cabinet that rapidly grows throughout the levels. It makes me feel seen

The contrast between the first roommates and the boyfriend really is stark. You can't move anything in the roommates' apartment, but they made space for you. Meanwhile, you can move everything in the boyfriend's apartment, and you HAVE to to make space for your things. It's absolutely telling about the amount of respect one had over the other.

[@L-tb9kk]

can u explain i dont understand

[@Lokisif34]

@@L-tb9kk So basically the roommate made space for you. They thought about all the things you might bring and made space for those things. Meanwhile your boyfriend doesn't even do that, you have to do it yourself. It's also a good way to show the difference in relationship without directly telling you. The roommate doesn't let you move their stuff around but that's because they are your roommate, your boyfriend(your significant other) obviously has less qualms with you moving their stuff, they just also don't put the most thought into it compared to the roommate.

[@hayden_ann1339]

I think the person the main character lives with in 2010 also lived with them in 2007! You can see when you go to move into the fourth house that there's a bug box on top of one of the characters boxes. But in the third house/ 2007, there are multiple bugs in critter boxes all throughout the house! I think that since there were two other bedrooms in the third house, you can infer that you live with two roommates, one of them is a cosplayer/ design student, and the second (future boyfriend) is an entomologist/ bug enjoyer. I think the symbolism of not being allowed to move any of the furniture in the third house shows that t\they're all just friends that have their boundaries, while the fourth house shows that the entomologist and the main character have a closer connection, thus you're allowed to move pre-existing furniture :}

[@SilberWolf242]

@@hayden_ann1339 I thought the bug is the main characters, not the boyfriends. like they picked up the love for bugs from one of their roommates. Especialyl because there is just the one bug and it doesn't fit anywhere, if it was the boyfriends I would think he'd have space for it.

Mine are in the envelopes they arrived in (never had a graduation ceremony or anything other than high school) and are sitting in some stack of something somewhere. Only ever felt relief as getting it done, never proud of my accomplishment. I never felt they were accomplishments. Also felt scared that school was over because it's the only thing I've ever done decently at in my life. It meant going on to be fired from one job after another and being threated to be kicked out to the streets.

im pretty sure the only thing you missed about the main character is that she started off this really sporty person. shed play soccor, rock climb, etc, but as she got older she started to have too much pain for that. thats why she had a walking stick and so many medications, and the only physical activity she did by the end of the game was yoga.

The way everyone understands the first boyfriend is an asshole just by looking at his house brings a smile to my face

[@animeartist888]

I really liked his apartment ;-; And they did clearly have some common interests- the music instruments, the weights. Plus being able to move his stuff is generally a good sign that the relationship isn't super toxic. If anything, I'd say maybe their financial states were too different cuz that was a very fancy apartment with a view of a busy city, and then our girl moved back in with her parents when it ended, which suggests she didn't have the money for her own apartment. I'd guess it was money disagreements that split them up.

[@VizzyInks]

​@@animeartist888She probably was allowed to move things because he didn't care enough to make space for her himself. When you love someone and they are moving in you try to make everything as comfy as possible. I could feel she was not welcome.

Edit: I now realize that John has worded it correctly but also Jack does not realize his mistake xD (also he didn't realize the pictures of people on the fridge at the SO's place are likely the friends from the first shared space lol) Unless he corrects himself later, the first "SO" was just a shared house during some sort of study - typical after first year or two of college to do stuff like that in the US or just if going out of town to college in some cases it's preferable to a dorm, sometimes even paid for by the university to reserve more space for those who need it. Also that's why you're not allowed to move the stuff at first because you can't move other people's stuff but with an SO you definitely can. Also there's already 3 controllers for the system and there's 3 bedrooms but 2 are inaccessible, in the first location.

[@ladlevi]

I was laughing so hard at Jack not quiteeee processing that the fifth level was moving in the main character's new girlfriend, even though you move in a new wardrobe of dresses, skirts, bras, and panties, as well as a box of tampons- but then upon encountering her shampoo and conditioner he says "oh, seems like men's hair products!" Unpacking is such a creative game- moving house is always a personal time in your life. You have to pack everything important to you into boxes, and one by one spend time with each little portion of your life- it just makes so much sense for the basis of a storytelling video game, and it's flawlessly executed here. I love piecing together the little things about this person- how she's from New Zealand, she's an artist, has a childhood interest in fantasy that turns into a passion for D&D, loves her stuffed animals, likes collecting things, that she's Jewish- and, specifically, appears to connect more with her faith later in the game, when she starts displaying her Menorah and a Hamsa!- even the random nod to her having done a form of martial arts at some point as a kid- it feels so HOMEY! You really get to know this woman, in so many stages of her life :] I loved how her girlfriend's hobby for gardening was expressed!! For the first four levels, our girl never has any kind of plants, but once the girlfriend moves in, they're in every room- a gorgeous visual nod to how having a partner, and especially living with them, changes every single aspect of your life, in small, almost unnoticeable ways :] Especially in contrast to her ex, who didn't really seem to have a place for any of our girl's stuff- nodding to an emotional unavailability, that isn't present in our girl when she's the one moving her partner in. There's such a stark contrast between the feel of the two relationships- its crazy the sense of warmth we get from the second one, versus the coldness, and slightly suppressed feel we get from the first, without ever meeting either partner. Much more personal, but I LOVED seeing her subtle progression as an artist!! She went from having from a simple kid's arts and crafts collection, to the classic multi shade colour pencil tin you get when your parents realise you actually will use five different shades of green, to having multiple packs of copic markers, which any intermediate artist knows is equivalent to pulling on your big boy pants, a screenless tablet to hook up to a desk top (you ALWAYS get one before you get a proper drawing tablet, because buying a proper one is SUCH a huge commitment, and what if you suck at digital art??? and you just give it up and now you've bought a 700 dollar piece of technology that you'll NEVER use- the horror! The screenless version, or an non-specialised tablet is that safe bridge to cross first- so much less expensive), and a stand for the tablet/sketchbooks (proper posture, woohoo!!), and then eventually, she has a proper tablet with a set up- so. Real!!! Like the game creator totally lived it :] I liked the hint to her being a children's illustrator- there's something really sweet about her going back to what made her love to draw in the first place. I loved seeing her slowly collect more and more sketchbooks- again, so real to the artist lifestyle, you just can't bring yourself to throw the old ones away 😞 Also I CACKLED when Jack unpacked the CLASSIC posable wooden figure drawing tool- my mom got me one when she realised I was more serious about studying art, and I like to imagine it was similar for our girl :] Overall, my favourite detail was the wear and tear on the stuffed animals becoming more pronounced until she gets her own apartment and patches the pig up, and then gets it properly cleaned/repaired to pass on to her baby :>> so, so cute. Such a perfect throughline and full circle moment for the story

[@danielwoods3896]

@@angellava1337 That seems like a childish and frankly untrue view on compatibility...

[@reydragonclaw1128]

@@Blip_OwO I meant in a storytelling sense- I know that realistically many people who are very compatible have "clashing" aesthetics. My best friend has a very cutesy vibe and her favorite colors are purpley shades while I have a darker aesthetic and my favorite colors are red and black. Although, I would also like to note there is a difference between clashing and complementary. You can have different aesthetics that go well, but when they clash it's more of a "we don't have much common ground or anything to talk about because we like different things." Clarification: On paper, aesthetics don't sound like an issue (and in real life they mostly aren't), but what I was talking about was less about the literal sense and more about the metaphorical sense. It's like picking up on a bad vibe. They just don't go together. Something about the colors, the way things are organized, and the space left for the MC is a vital storytelling element.

Him putting the shoes in the drawers instead of the clothes was an odd choice to say the least. Also him almost figuring out she got a girlfriend and just not getting there took me out.

im guessing there wasnt enough space to go on the wood thing, so putting them in the deep drawers makes since to me

@@abominablesnowman646 exactly... to me - what Jack did - It's like putting shoes in a shoe rack, kinda like mini closet.

@@abominablesnowman646 but he could have put the clothes in the plastic drawers and used the wooden shelves as a shoe rack.

@@abominablesnowman646 no ive played thevgame the wood shelves are shoe racks and fit all the shoes except the girlfriends boots but there a gap the exact size of her bootsnext to it. The drawrs are for the shirts and bottoms you dont hang up

"If he loved you, he would make space!" - words to live by.

1:03:12. Damn. Sean's excitement at having his own office space had me unexpectedly crying my eyes out. I played this game last year from a 1 bedroom rented flat, but two months ago I exchanged contracts and moved into my own 3 bedroom flat - with my own office space. Been feeling rather overwhelmed and underachieving this last week and to hear that really brought it all back to me. Thank you
