Yes, you read that last sentence correctly: a game written by Gen Urobuchi in the year of our lord 2025 actually left me feeling happy and hopeful with its wholesome vibes. I could be reading too much into this, but it's possible that many of the developers' feelings were personified in their main character, Stamp. This is an old, semi-cynical junk digger who carries himself with a sort of “I'm getting too old for this” type of energy. However, he's far from cynical, he's just been around the block a lot and tells it like it is. I like him as a protagonist because he has a very seasoned wit about him, and the way that he communicates things to the player via his desire to reminisce about the world is surprisingly organic. The game very much feels like you are playing through the lens of an older, seasoned veteran. There's always something new to discover, whether it's from your environment or from the next generation.


He sounds very much like Shang Bu Huan, so I guess that's the kind of protagonist Urobuchi's come to gravitate to, as a solution to his famous desire to "write stories that can warm people's hearts."
