Not Harvest Moon-related (almost at New Year's, almost, almost!), but somehow I feel compelled to post.
Spoilers for Case 3 of the new Ace Attourney Investigations game under the cut! You've been warned. So flee, flee, if you haven't played that far! Not spoilers for the ending of Case 3, but near the beginning.
That
That face
The eyes
Unblinking black voids
I mean
It's just
oh god
PROTO
BADGER
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
Even if it weren't for that scene, I can tell simply by looking that that abomination must be drinking buddies with Uboa on the weekends. That's the kind of costumed mascot character that makes little kids cry! More so than usual!
Seriously, drinking buddies with Uboa. Come on, I couldn't possibly have been the only person to find that Proto Badger unspeakably creepy looking. That horrible, horrible face. Can you imagine if you turned around and saw it sneaking up on you in a dark hallway? It's possible Mr. Edgeworth's list of traumatic things would've expanded past elevators and earthquakes had he chanced to turn his head.
If someone built a Lovecraft Land, he would fit right in. That's what I'm sayin'.
Plus, you know, hitting Mr. Edgeworth is simply not cool unless he's really asking for it.
Now I'm on case 4. Just started, but I'm nearly there! Marathoning has been working nicely so far.
It's strange to juggle between this and Harvest Moon, though. It won't be long before I start constructing elaborate crossover plots in my head. (I can see it now! Mr. Edgeworth winds up in Harmonica Town, and is compelled to solve the mystery of the missing parents! Oh, er, and I suppose someone would have to get killed. How about the Harvest King? Fat lot of help he's been so far.)
