After missing out on Until Dawn and House of Ashes (which probably the least terrible out of the 3), I thought I would probably give this game a try. But even from the trailer, The Quarry doesn't seems like a 'funny bad' shlock, but just felt like an awkward teen/YA drama.

it's because they're not realistic. They're just *close* to realistic. Puts you right into the uncanny valley.

It's really visible when Mr. H is standing on the deck, and the shadows on his face are way too harsh. Makes him look like a chipmunk imo

Miles set the good dishes on the table. The white porcelain with the blue detailing glazed over the top ornate flowers and intricate images of old Chinese villages that nobody in his family had ever been to. Good china, his father called it, passed down from his grandmother only to be used on Sundays and special occasions. And though it was Sunday, today was also a special occasion for Miles, because it was the last day of his punit ment. *My suggestion to you, mijo, is that you make sure you get it all out before his class," Miles's mother said, lifting a window and fanning the smoke from the stove out with a hand towel, "Because I swear, if you get suspended again for something like this, it's gonna be you I'm fanning our the window." Miles was suspended for having to pee. Well, for saying he had to pee. After his history teacher, Mr. Chamberlain, Page 2 cald no, Miles begged. And once Mr. Chamberlain wis, again, Miles left. So he was actually suspended for len, line class. Bur here's the thing- Miles didn't really have, pec. And no, he didn't have to do that either. Miles had " rescue someone. At least he thought he did. Truth was, his spider-sem had been on the fritz lately. But Miles couldn't risk t couldn't ignore what he considered his responsibility, "I don't always have time to pee before class, Ma," Mil replied. He rinsed forks and knives in the sink, while kis mother hung the towel on the oven handle. She grabbed, pair of tongs and lifted chunks of chicken breast from the sizzling grease. "Yeah, you used to say that every night, and gues what? You wet the bed more than any boy I've ever seen: "The boy could've set a record," Miles's father chimed in from the couch. He was flipping through Friday's Daily Bugle. He only got the Friday edition; his theory was that if he were to actually read it each day, he'd never leave the house. Creatures everywhere were threatening civilization--and those were just the articles about real. ty TV. "Miles, I swear you were the most bed-wettingest kid in Brooklyn. Matter fact, back then I used to get this trash paper every morning, just so we could line the top of your mattress with it in the evening." Mr. Davis closed the paper, folded it in half. He shook his head. "And then your pissy butt would come waddling into our bedroom in the middle of the night smelling like two-hundred-year-old Page 3 lemonade, talkin' bout, I bad an accident. An accident? I'ma tell you right now, son, be thankful for your mother, because if it were up to me, you would've been lying in the wet spot until it was a dry spot." "Be quiet, Jeff." Miles's mother said, positioning the chicken on a serving plate. "Am I lying, Rio? You were always savin' him." "Because he's my baby." she said, laying a paper towel on the first layer of meat to sop the grease from the glisten- ing skin. "But you not a baby no more. So figure out what you need to do to keep your butt in that seat." Miles had already made up his mind that that wouldn't be a problem. He was going to stay in his seat in Mr. Chamberlain's class and ignore his beehive brain when- ever the bees up there got to buzzing. His spidey-sense had always been his alarm, the thing that let him know when there was danger close, or when someone needed help. But since the beginning of this school year, his junior year at Brooklyn Visions Academy, his spidey-sense seemed to be ... broken. Almost like his powers were wearing off. He'd been dashing out of Chamberlain's class over and over again for fake bathroom breaks, bolting down the hallway and out the door, a gust of wind, only to find . nothing. No monster. No mutant. No madman. Just Brooklyn being Brooklyn, left with a new awkward excuse about what took him so long in the bathroom. Perhaps, for a kid like him, being a Super Hero had an expiration date. And it wasn't worth being punished Page 4 by his folks--it wasn't worth failing a class, or bee, expelled-if be couldn't even guarantee he'd will be all to be Spider-Man by graduation. The buzzer buzzed jost as Miles finished setting the call, for fout. He scooted past his mother, who was scooping yellow rice from a pot into a bowl, and stuck his head ou the open window. -I don't know why you look to see who it is like yo don't already know," Miles's father said, washing ti hands in the sink. He kissed Miles's mother loudly on the check. "Smells good, baby. Matter fact, it smells so good that our son's knucklehead friend could smell it on the other side of Brooklyn." -Be nice. You know he's going through some changes; Miles's mother said. - We going through some changes, too--nickels, dimes, and quarters." Miles's father rubbed his thumb and index fingers together. "I'm just sayin', I love the kid, but we can't really afford another mouth at this table." Miles's mother faced his father, placed her hands on his chest, and sighed. "Love is deed, papi. Not just fine phrases." She planted a peck on his lips. "Yo!" Miles, grossed out by his parents, yelled down to the stoop. "Hold on." On the other side of the room. Miles hit the button that automatically unlocked the front door. Then cracked the one leading into the building, the sound of heavy footfalls climbing the steps. "Yo," Ganke said, almost falling into the apartment. Ganke, a burly Korean kid, was Miles's best friend, Page 5 confidant, and roommate at Brooklyn Visions Academy. He immediately inspected Miles's face, right cheek, left cheek, then whispered, *You okay? I'm surprised your folks didn't kill you," before moving past Miles to greet his parents. "Hey, Mrs. M., Mr. Jeff. What's for din-din?" *I'm not sure, Ganke, but guess who would know? Your parents," Miles's father said. Mrs. Morales slapped her husband on the arm. *Oh, I know what they're having for dinner, Mr. Jeff. I already ate it," Ganke said with a shrug *Um, Ganke, wash your hands and sit down. You know you're always welcome here, even if it's for dinner number two. Tonight we're having chicharrón de pollo. Ganke sent a confused look to Miles's father, who now stood behind a chair at the head of the table. "Fried chicken," he said, his face volleying back and forth between annoyed and sympathetic. "Oh, sweet." "Not like it would've mattered," Miles's father jabbed, sliding out his chair and taking a seat. "Got that right, Mr. Jeff." Miles set the chicken, the rice, and the greens on the table, then took his seat. His mother put big spoons in the rice and greens bowls, and tongs on the chicken plate. Then she sat down as well. "Bless the food, Jeff," Mrs. Morales said. Miles, his father, and Ganke instantly snatched their eager hands back from the bowls and spread them wide to grab hold of Page 6 "Yep, yes, of course. Bow your heads, boys," Mile; father said. "Lord, please help our son, Miles, behave him. self in school. Because if he doesn't, this very well may he the last home-cooked meal he ever has. Amen." "Amen." Miles's mother said seriously. "Amen!" Ganke said. Miles sucked his teeth, shot Ganke a look. Ganke leaned in for the chicken tongs. Sunday dinner at Miles's house was a tradition. Throughout the week Miles was away, staying on cam- pus at the Brooklyn Visions Academy, and on Saturday, well . . . even Miles's parents knew that there wasn't a sixteen-year-old in all of Brooklyn who wanted to spend Saturday evening with his folks. But Sunday was perfect for an carly family meal. A lazy day for everyone. As a matter of fact, besides his mother making him get up for early morning mass, Miles typically had the rest of the day free to loaf around and watch old sci-fi movies with his dad in the afternoon and pray his mother was making his favorite for dinner-pasteles. But this Sunday hadn't been quite as relaxed. Nor had the rest of the weekend. After being suspended Thursday afternoon, Father Jamie down at the church would've just given Miles a few Hail Marys to make penance and sent him on his way. But "Father Jeff" gave him a few Hell Nahs and sent him to his room. It all started Friday, when Miles had been awakened at six in the morning and dragged outside on the stoop by his father. *LOOK* *AT* *REPLY* *FOR* *PAGE* *SEVEN* *+*

Haven't played through all of it, but he does some pretty stupid and/or rude shit. Granted a good amount of it is because his ex is being a bitch but still, no need to fuck everyone else over. SPOILERS Like fucking with the car? Sure go ahead, but getting pissed at Nick because Emma wanted to be spiteful and kiss him on Truth or Dare? Really? Then again it could be that all the characters have moments where they can be rude af, I've had maybe half of them just be assholes for seemingly no reason.

I never realized how awful the conversations sounded, they all sound like aliens from different planets trying to blend in with other aliens who are also trying to mimic human conversation after watching some corny high school horror movie about being stuck in a haunted mansion in the forest.
