Breath of Fire 4 is like a textbook example of this.
Especially Yuna and his hardon for causing extreme pain and suffering to cute girls.

Stella Glow is super happy go lucky till like chapter 8, then shit hits the fan. Only goes down from there till the final climax.

I knew something was wrong when you got to the Hex zone and it was treated like the aftermath of Hiroshima.

Is it? I dropped it at the wind witch chapter because even if I eat chinese cartoons for breackfast this game was too anime even for me. I kinda liked the part you go inside the water witch brain. Does it get better?

>>331519532
Wait, what? It becomes pure suffering? I stopped reading at the dark knight fight. Sure the humans being full law-brainwashed is kinda bad, but it gets worse?

It should have been ten nukes.

We get to see Helck's past. It consists entirely of suffering.

There is also development between Helck's old and new friends with a slight glimmer of hope for humanity. It also ends in suffering.

>>331519951
The game is not very hard, but i found it to be refreshing. Its a combination of a SRPG and Persona 4 at its core, but is rather anime in its dialog. Also the twist at chapter 8 and the rest of the game that follows is fairly fun, if a bit cliche and bleak.

I liked it, but your mileage may vary.

Oh man, keep reading, you don't even know.
