Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a game I expected to like a reasonable amount and now my brain just screams PAINDRE L'AMOUR, PAINDRE LA VIE at random moments of my life. Let me spend an unreasonable amount of time telling you why.

Last Minute Essays is a creative project of mine, made solely because I know people prefer listening to rambling to reading it. And there's a lot of rambling that comes out of my brain which I want to get out into the world somehow.
