This Game is Sad

Wow, so I just went back through the wizard tower (on my second play through) and BOY does it all make me feel things.

First, you find a note from someone that talks about how Lenore lost her dog and that the bulette you fight down here was her attempt to get another companion. Also asking Bernard for a hug really broke my heart. She put in a program that gives her a hug tells her that she's doing great. That's the most lonely thing I've ever heard.

Also that she has a command that makes them kill whoever said it... What were you going to use that for Lenore? You alright, girl?

There's so many more sad stories from characters who you find dead or never find at all.

Like the moment you're on the beach after the crash, you find a fisherman who has a note from his love who said (paraphrasing) "Meet me at this place tonight and I'll tell you that I love you as many times as you want. I'll say it till we're old and gray." or something like that and he's at your feet, dead.

This is a harsh world our Tav lives in
