(#62)
i used to be a bit of a fence-sitter wrt ps1 vs ps2 tod but then i dragged a friend through playing ps2 tod and
the amount of times i was sheepishly like… yeah this was handled in a really boring way but the ps1 scene is really good… was. embarrassing. i am never reccing ps2 tod ever again other than on gameplay
a certain infamous scene in the middle of the game is the worst example i think bc like. the original scene is fucking raw and it just underlines how leon felt powerless and was lashing out in any way he could;whereas in ps2 i just go. mmmm that character turn around isnt believable
people say ps2 turns him into a tsundere but it doesnt even do that it just... writes him for fanservice without really thinking of a coherent character for him. no coherent character arc, no coherent personality, just fanservice.
