Retail Edition 1/4

I took out the points. It seemed like cheating to reveal the success rate. Also, I have a lot of anger at the gaming industry right now. That comes through a little.

lolol loved this. A great idea and a great fill. I laughed so hard at some parts remembering the dating sim games I've played.
Of course only praising Sherlock verbally would get him aroused enough to jump on John and LOL at this involving Anderson at all

I would definitely like to check

Mormor collector’s edition: More, more, more matchmaking grandmothers than one sniper can handle! lmao

Re: Retail Edition 4/4

[anonymous]

Thank you! I’m really glad you liked it. Anderson brings people together.

The Mormor game would have to have a sniping mini-game. An assassination > chocolate.

LAUGHING. MY. ASS. OFF. Well done!

Why are you upset with the gaming industry, by the way?

Re: Retail Edition 4/4

Thank you

H-i-l-a-r-i-o-u-s! I would play this game over and over again, and I'd definitely buy Umbrella Massacre (those poor ninjas, somebody has to help them). Wonderful, this goes straight into my bookmarks! Bravo!

Re: Retail Edition 4/4

[anonymous]

Thank you! I’m flattered. (Those poor, poor ninjas. They had no idea what they were getting into.)

OP here to say this was the funniest thing I've read all week! XD

All those options were priceless and made me wish this was an actual game I could play so I could try all of those options. You have no idea how badly I wanted to chose the ones that would have me jump on Sherlock... even if it led to the bad ending.

You seem pretty bitter about the gaming industry but that frustration added the humor of this.

Re: Retail Edition 4/4

[anonymous]

Thank you OP, I’m really glad that you liked it! It was a hilarious prompt.

I’m pleased to hear that the frustration ended up adding to the humour. I didn’t actually realise how bitter I must have been until I proofread through it. When I did I hoped that my frustration would come off as inherently ridiculous enough to be funny itself, so I am really, really, really glad that it worked out to be a positive.

I WILL NEVER STOP LAUGHING AND IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT
