The worst part of it all, though? This one particular moment toward the end of the game.

But I still bought it all, specifically knowing that all I could do was destroy it and be paid for the privilege, whore that I am. In fact, there's almost definitely somebody out there who could use that medication more than you do. I'm sure there's some kid out there who needs that toy more than you do. Even if the item in question doesn't have any sort of past attached to it, I'm still ultimately denying other people things that they have more of a right to than I could ever claim. Somebody out there valued this item and attached some personal meaning to it. What is it that I'm burning? Used credit cards, discarded family photos, letters that people have sent you, children's toys, are you starting to see a pattern here, yet? All of these items have a personal history to them. In fact, let's explore that last idea some more. For what? Some fleeting moment of joy I knew couldn't last? That would ultimately deprive somebody else of perhaps even greater joy? Despite a planet so vast.and populated by countless number of people.Why is it that I'm so alone?.Oh, well. Hell, I could've simply shut off the game at any time, and I'd no longer be an active participant in the world's destruction. The game is telling me in unambiguous terms that my actions are destroying the world. Oh, sure, my limited view of the world and the letter's flammability certainly encourage ignorance, but ignorance isn't an excuse. But it's difficult escaping my role in what's going on. Well, not entirely you're not the only one lighting fires to entertain yourself. Turns out the Earth's covered in smog, trapped in eternal winter, and you're to blame for this. Even though you spend most of the game looking at a fireplace that's completely removed from the outside world, Little Inferno's more than happy to send you newsletters to keep you updated on current world affairs. You're essentially trapped in digital samsara, bringing things into this world so that they might die, only for the process to repeat ad infinitum.Īnd then the story context makes things so much worse. Remember that little tidbit about being paid for your "work"? Well, that's the entire experience: you buy things to burn to buy things to burn to buy thing to b-and it goes on like that for a while. Primal joy soon gives way to tedium as you soon realize how repetitive your actions are. Whatever the reason, it isn't going to last. Of course, there are always memories I'd be happy burning away. Starting a fire, as psychotic as it sounds, is the only thing that brings even the smallest, most fleeting glimpse of light and warmth. All you ever really see in this game is cold, unfeeling brick. There's just this primal joy to be had, watching things slowly fade into ash. At first, all of this feels rather gratifying. Hell, you even get paid to burn things, just so you can buy more things to burn. Here's a fireplace have fun burning shit. It all begins with a relatively simple premise. And that's what makes the game so damn good. And for what? To bring a fleeting amount of joy to my pathetic, lonely existence? When I finally saw those credits roll, I felt like an awful person. I spent the entire game depriving other people of their joy and brought the world around me closer to annihilation. I'm honestly saying I feel like shit after finishing Little Inferno. You ever play a video game and feel like a total piece of shit afterward? No, I didn't confuse this game with Spec Ops: The Line (which I really should get around to playing). He is on an EROTIC quest to see if lesbians indeed have the goods. J0 Comments The suave, daring, unrivaled King of Video Games.
