  • Since Legault took power in 2018, I’ve come to remember him for:

    • Thinking the been on face coverings and religious symbols hasn’t gone far enough
    • Blaming nurses, not employers, for patients’ issues rising from the nurses’ strike
    • Bill 96, which has let them require all businesses have French signage (replaced at their own cost), prohibition of already-existing English government resources, and limits the number of students in English speaking schools
    • Limiting funding to English-speaking universities in Montreal
    • Limiting immigration in an attempt to make sure that a limited amount of non-French speakers move in
    • Forming a committee literally named “The Committee of Sages” in order to determine protections and rights for trans people, which also has no trans people, or any LGBTQ+ people
    • Advocating for removal of an anti-Palestinian protest camped out on a university’s grounds

    And now for fucking with strike protections. When the one good thing I can think to say is “He didn’t fuck up the COVID response,” that’s a pretty bad track record.

    It kind of felt like the game was trying to tackle language as a barrier to entry in the same way that Tunic did, but ultimately failed to properly teach. The first language is learnable, but most of the others had extremely frustrating attempts to get the last few words. It fortunately tells you when the word is correct in your pocket dictionary, but if you haven’t encountered the item it references yet, you have to assign it what you think it is, rely on it, and figure out what exactly is wrong.

    I get that it’s a puzzle game, but there’s supposed to be a moment of “Oh, that’s how it works” euphoria when you finish a puzzle, not a consistent “Seriously? I got it this wrong again?” and an encouragement for random trial and error due to frustration. It’s cool that there’s different languages, based on different existing language structures, but it felt like the execution of unraveling it fell flat.
