Let’s Play Tharsis – Entry 4 – I Get So Emotional, Baby

Mmmmmm…Tasty…

Welcome back to this final entry looking at Tharsis, my friends! In this entry, I realize this really isn’t a game for me. It’s too emotionally draining, too anxiety-making, too panic-causing. This is less having to do with the game than with some weird, emotional, irrational anxious empathy I seem to have around games like this and FTL. I get too…connected to my crewmates that sending them to their death — which, c’mon, I always do — just fills me with stress, anxiety and a teensy bit of panic. This is a solid game that I know a lot of people love. It just really, super isn’t for me.
