I spent so long on skyblock having no idea there where other islands loved watching series based around this map! This is a good video btw, lots of effort put in! Ly
2:03:48 It actually makes a lot of sense that Atreaus believing himself mortal would make him sick. Mortality is itself a form of sickness, a slow terminal illness. Humans convince themselves of being sick to the point of causing actual symptoms all the time, I mean that's the same reason placebos often have a reported effect. So yeah... I buy this explanation.
Honestly love this game, and half of that is just for Ichiban alone. At the time I had gotten into the Yakuza series, I was working a miserable job at Target that I absolutely hated. Felt really directionless and unsure about where I was gonna go. But this series really helped boost me up. Ichibans character especially helped. I really related to him being obsessed with his favorite game and even his poofy hair. But what really sold me on him was seeing how positive and hopeful he could be in even the absolute worst situations. He truly represents the dragon fish on his back well, being someone who will struggle toward his full potential, but that potential is something that is truly incredible. Makes me feel like I could rise up and become someone past me would be proud to one day grow up to be, just as Ichiban is trying to do. So, for as much as I love the wacky fun the Yakuza series has to offer, I have to say that aspect of it is what truly stuck by for me the most. >:-O
