    Let’s hide some nebulous lore in item descriptions so youtubers can sell their head cannon as “the story”

    Don’t you know, every item comes with a little laminated card to give you some mostly-irrelevant quote!

      Hey those quotes are like catnip to a generation who grew up playing JRPGs that could go 10 hours in between meeting any speaking character!

      I love building my own worlds, and sometimes I catch myself building head canon around unexplained or poorly explained aspects of games I play, but sometimes I get the sneaking suspicion the fans put way more thought and effort into their fanon than the devs did to the official canon.
