The theme of the characters in Night in the Woods is that they're young adults who haven't grow up yet. The main character is the worst, just totally annoying and unlikable. I played it a few months ago, and I enjoyed the character interactions with the perspective that they're immature kids who think they know more than they do and also think they're way funnier than they really are. I'm not calling it a masterpiece, but I see people (in general, not just this game) fall into thinking that characters are poorly written because they're unrelatable.However, because it’s made by soydevs, the central characters are Life is Strange levels of insufferable at times, so your mileage may vary on how unintentionally funny you may perceive the dialogue.
I don’t disagree and I personally don’t mind the dialogue myself, but I can see a lot of people turned off by it. I think Mae’s a great POV character and she has a proper character arc and everything, but if you really don’t like quirky alt chick characters then the game loses a lot of its appeal seeing as how it’s largely dialogue-driven.The theme of the characters in Night in the Woods is that they're young adults who haven't grow up yet.

Also I realize I'm saying that while donning the form of Alex Yiik, but to be clear, Alex is not a good character falsely maligned because the audience doesn't "get" him. He just sucks.
based on previous game streams jersh would probably spend the whole game attempting to kill her so it could be comedic in a way...I don’t disagree and I personally don’t mind the dialogue myself, but I can see a lot of people turned off by it.

My picksHas someone compiled a “Best of MATI”, yet? I know we have the archives, but a good thing to do for the Gumroad people and others might be to compile what @Null thinks are the best and what the fans think are the best.
If you can link to archives or whatever it would be okay content because some streams you have done have been golden. I’d include streams with other people as honorable mentions, I.E. Rekieta streams that you join or the Four Horseman (you as Famine/ The BLACKED Rider) stream talking about He-Who-Cannot-Be-Named-In-November.
I'll add to this with some of my favorites which weren't posted:My picks

I'd love for Josh to play YIIK. There's a big update coming soon (tm) which is hopefully going to make the combat less of a slog. (Dick and Vito are also getting added to the game lol)Also I realize I'm saying that while donning the form of Alex Yiik, but to be clear, Alex is not a good character falsely maligned because the audience doesn't "get" him. He just sucks.
His conversations with people over the phone are always great:a good thing to do for the Gumroad people and others might be to compile what @Null thinks are the best and what the fans think are the best.
Anything with the Dear Leader laughing with such pure joy is a second.Final Solutions, LLC
The Scary Logos Wiki has a moment like that, when he checks out the 'Wikis owned by racist tag' on it and it's just Kiwi FarmsAnything with the Dear Leader laughing with such pure joy is a second.
Looking forward to the Chantaaallllh marriage coverage.
