to be serious, i think what bothers me is that even though i guess i understand what you mean by ‘ih’ in contrast to ee or ai, ‘ih’ is never used in the spelling of any word that actually exists. whereas ‘kate’ is perfectly legible because ‘kate’ is a familiar word (i dont see ‘kate’ and think kaw-tee)

I get really triggered by the name ‘immersive sim.’ what the fuck does that mean. what the fuck is it. at least survival horror is only meant to be a shlocky name, these immersive sim bums think they’re on to something. it’s just an RPG. it’s a kind of RPG. it’s an RPG where you go into the vents instead of talking to people.

only an imsim if the first combination lock encountered is opened with 451 with or without trailing 0s otherwise it’s just a sparkling fps-rpg
