I have heard about the "virtual garden" idea from some time, but it never occurred to me how to implement it. One day I was watching a video that I rewatch from time to time because it makes me very happy, when it occurred to me, I could create a garden to keep all those little things that make me very happy.
So, welcome, to my Happy garden.
In my opinion, one of the best trailers and the one that best captures the essence of Persona 3. Even today, watching it gives me goosebumps.
Persona 3 is one of my favorite games, and when they announced they were getting a remake, I had my doubts. However, seeing this trailer made me realize that the team fully understood what the game was about.
“Death is not a hunter unbeknownst to its prey, one is always aware that it lies in wait. Though life is merely a journey to the grave, it must not be undertaken without hope. Only then will a traveler’s story live on, treasured by those who bid him farewell. (...)"
Fragment of the End Poem in Persona 3.
Does it know that we love it? That the universe is kind?
Sometimes, through the noise of its thoughts, it hears the universe, yes.
But there are times it is sad, in the long dream. It creates worlds that have no summer, and it shivers under a black sun, and it takes its sad creation for reality.
To cure it of sorrow would destroy it. The sorrow is part of its own private task. We cannot interfere
The poem about the end is one of those rare things I like to revisit a couple of times a year. It's a very profound and existentialist piece, but one that (especially after finishing Minecraft) resonates deeply and makes you feel happy to be alive.
