#letstalkabout #killer7 #suda51
Making good on a promise due, Noah Campbell, a blob without allegiances except to those of the almighty editing software, ventures into the wicked world of Goichi Suda's seminal work: killer7. Ranked 8th on his top ten games list, between number seven's Danganronpa 2 and number nine's Monster Hunter: World, witness as our host delivers a video with all the trappings. A full-length feature surely filled with mindscrew, insipid thoughts and asides, and many, many cuts. killer7 is groundbreaking but...uh....what the hell happens in it? Well my dear viewer......there might be an answer for that.
