F**k your realism

Did the sign not radiate with the light of a supernova, begging for warning’s acknowledgement? Turn back now, as the usual journalistic sovereignty you’ve grown accustomed to has been put away… temporarily. Left behind are fragments of sanity, and the boiled down essence of obsession.

This definitely brings back fond memories of Ada’s Separate Ways mission from Resident Evil 4.
