That was the ending I got, and I couldn't have been happier since I didn't like either of them, though Katherine was less grating on my nerves. The Maniac Pixie Dream Girl thing Catherine had going on just made me roll my eyes. She reminded me of Lilah from Dexter.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree. I get that there are cultural differences between what is 'sexy' in Japan and what is 'sexy' in the West...but geeeeez Catherine was a grating, juvenile moron. I kept getting skeeved out because she was so...childish and cutesy. She reminded me more of a 12 year old girl than an adult woman, let alone a supposedly hundreds-of-years-old succubus.

[micromyni.livejournal.com]

She reminded me of this (http://thepunchlineismachismo.com/archives/755). "That is a full-grown woman pulling off pigtails. Her crazy is off the charts."

[murderershair.livejournal.com]

I don't know about holding him back, but both women made me so profoundly anxious that the only ending that seemed really happy to me was the neutral one. So I guess I agree.

[childings.livejournal.com]

I would like a genderswapped version of this game so bad.
Except I think people would be more likely to say that Catherine date raped Vincent if the genders were reversed.

[murderershair.livejournal.com]

Catherine genderswapped would be super interesting! Male!Catherine would probably be the Edward Cullen/Eric from True Blood type, though I have a harder time thinking of what Male!Katherine would be- a really anxious kind of "nerd" type, maybe?
Aren't people saying that Catherine raped Vincent in the game as it is, though? At least, I saw people saying that.

Aren't people saying that Catherine raped Vincent in the game as it is, though? At least, I saw people saying that.

I haven't really been lurking in the fandom or reading anything online about this game, but they should be! IDK I have been watching my husband play this game and that scene certainly looked like date rape to me, at the very least the consent wasn't altogether clear to me since he was so drunk, and he afterward he seemed less like someone who regretted a decision he'd made and more like someone who wasn't aware he had even made a decision regarding sex to begin with, so yeah

[murderershair.livejournal.com]

I'm not in the fandom either, but the two playthroughs I watched both had the gamers react with horror when Vincent woke up with Catherine- one of them definitely said "Hey, I didn't choose this!", and my one RL friend who owns the game texted me saying "Well, Vincent just got raped". To be fair, all of these people were playing to get Katherine or neutral, so maybe the people who were playing to get Catherine from the start felt differently.

[cloud-riven.livejournal.com]

I guess I agree about it being the best ending. Mostly because I found it very hard to like any of the main characters, Vincent especially, so anything relating to them getting away from eachother to be less annoying could only be a plus.

[lisiche.livejournal.com]

I loved that ending the most. Go to space, Vincent! Live all of our dreams!

Maybe one day I can go to space too.

ME TOO OMG
Why is our civilization so primitive

[(Anonymous)]

oh man a nephenee icon

[(Anonymous)]

God I hate this game. Why I ended up paying 60 bucks for this I don't know why.

[(Anonymous)]

He became the king of hell in Catherine's ending. Like hell (ha) she was holding him back.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, neither of the girls were made to seem particularly desirable at all, and this was the one that seemed the most triumphant. Even the one where he decides to risk all the money and still fails to get into space, I think, is far superior to the others, because he's still finally putting himself out there and trying to make things on his own instead of hiding behind relationships. Vincent really was a pathetic sort of guy, and needed to find a way to be confident and happy without dragging down any girl he was with, either.

[box-life.livejournal.com]

I felt like all of the endings were the correct ending. It really depended on the desires of the player.

[neoyi.livejournal.com]

I like the fact that the game does give you three different endings, including a neutral. Though I do wish some of the questions you answer altered some of the scenes based on how you choose 'em.

That said, I ended up choosing Katherine, but I think that's because I may be a lot like her if I had a boyfriend. I'm not sure if I should be happy or terrified.

[ariseishirou.livejournal.com]

I disliked how his choices weren't really set up as Woman A and Woman B, but rather Stereotypical Ball and Chain A and Manic Pixie Dream Girl A. Though frankly, given how often we see the later in the media these days, I went for the former.


Though I am slightly confused as to where the arguments are supposed to have occurred over which he should choose. I am in Atlus fandom, and I've never seen one. Over what, exactly? They're two Straw Women, they have nothing to say about how a man might interact with an actual woman in a relationship.

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

...I didn't even know there was a neutral ending. I totally would have gone for it had I known! I went for Catherine because I thought she was more interesting (and the ending was ridiculous and awesome) but the neutral ending... yeah, definitely more desirable.

[inuyatta.livejournal.com]

Honestly? I didn't think he was good enough for either of the girls. His constant inability to just speak up frustrated me to no end.
