So, this is probably old news at this point, but all this talk of Nintendo has reminded me - I found out recently that the original Clock Tower is being rereleased as a port for Nintendo Switch, and I was delighted. I'm a huge fan of horror and it's a game I've been obsessed with for years.
So, there I was, watching the trailer, getting all hype - female project lead, fuck yeah! - and then... Oh no... Oh no... Oh nooooooo!!!

The funniest part is that I am clearly not alone in my horrendous twansphobia, because it's the most replayed part of the video, presumably from people reacting similarly to me and wanting to laugh at the freak. Get-A-Load-Of-This-Guy Cam.
In a way, it's really frustrating, though. This was supposed to be about the Clock Tower rerelease, but now, because of this greasy-haired, snaggletoothed, unwashed looking chink pervert in a dress, everybody's talking about trannies.
I'm here talking to
you about it. It completely undermines the purpose of the trailer.
It's so baffling to me that they decided to put this freak in, front and centre. It's like having a serious business pitch delivered by a clown in full regalia. It doesn't matter how professional he is, or how good your product looks, or how slick your pitch is, because everybody's looking at his rainbow wig and silly shoes.
Also, and maybe this is just me, but trannies? Fuck off out of horror. Especially Clock Tower. Clock Tower is about a vulnerable woman stalked by deranged maniacs with delusions about reality. It's not a fear you will ever understand - because you
are deranged maniacs with delusions about reality.
