It’s definitely quite possible that I read too much into it. At the start of the game, I read that sign that says, “This memorial dedicated to those who perished on the climb” and it kinda hits cause I draw parallels to all the girls we lost along the way. Also, I see the mountain as an allegory to the difficult mountain we all climb that is our transitions.
Either way, my puppy wife dissuades me every time I want to play it. Probably cause she’d want to watch and she’s not very capable of dealing with such emotions.
the memorial makes me cry:( yeah i also read the game as broadly an allegory for transitioning and overcoming all the hurdles that come with it, persevering despite it all.
Y’know, I don’t think we’re ever truly done transitioning. We really just reach a point where we are happy with ourselves. When we can look in the mirror in the morning and see nothing special.
I agree with you I remember seeing the dev of Celeste transitioning some time after and I thought “yeah that makes sense.” I dunno why, Celeste is just a trans game
