So heres the thing about Dredge.
I think its a huge missed opportunity that the main character is the husband and not the wife.
the backstory doesnt come out fully until the end, but when it does, what you learn is this:
some amount of time ago, the player character was married. over the course of the game, you pick up notes from a woman, and at the end you learn that she was your wife.
*was*, because Cthulhu ate her.
you were a fisherman, and obsessed with the ocean, and she was not. you were superstitious, and she was not. And one day, she messed up and did something unlucky, and then she was lost at sea one night when she was on your boat.
it fucks you up so bad that you lose all your memory and end the world trying to save her.
so, obviously you're torn up about her, but also, it kinda didn't have anything to do with you. She fucked up and she got got. whoops! Oh well. It also didn't change very much about you: you're still a superstitious fisherman obsessed with the sea, except you're sad now.
But if you were the wife? If he died instead?
you were happily newlywed, but if you had one issue with your husband, it was that he was too married to the sea. He was too obsessed with fishing. He liked his boat too much, and he had all these sailor superstitions that you don't take seriously.
then one day, you ignore his superstitions. and a horrible eldritch force that you've never even dreamed of KILLS HIM.
your husband is DEAD and it is YOUR FAULT.
and it breaks you. So much that you take his boat, set sail, and spend your life at sea. Just like him. Embroiled in superstition and ocean magic. Just like him. Just like your least favorite parts about him. and you spend the rest of your life trying to undo the horrible thing you did, and only ever manage to end the world.
wouldn't that be so much fun?
#dredge#dredge spoilers#dredge game#i like this game but i do really think this would make the story more compelling#the inciting incident of the game... in the end it just doesnt have a lot to do w the main character and i think thats a missed opportunity#and ok its not like the backstory is that hugely important to the experience. it comes up very little until right at the end#but i think it could be *tastier*#for the void#ngl i first wrote this post like a year ago and every few months i come back and completely rewrite it#so im dusting it off and posting it finally since im clearly not going to stop thinking about it

I love how Dredge just. Gaslights you when you play with high panic. Like oh that rock? No that’s always been there
#what do you mean it just appeared out of the fog#no it didn’t#it’s definitely real see it even damages your boat#(it is in fact not real)#(it will be gone by morning)#dredge#dredge game

#dredge#dredge game#dredge 2023#the fisherman#fanart#it only took me over a year but... finally.... dredge (that's sfw)#jara draws stuff#this game is a perfect mix of chill and spooky-scary for me#not to mention it has old men to sexualize. but that's like a special bonus.

2nd request done!!! Introducing Horror the Ghost local guardian! He loves to watch boats! :D
The requester suggest horror, but I was a bit lost on what to draw tbh until I watch a dredge gameplay. XDD So this is a semi crossover to dredge. :D
I had so much fun in this, since it's been a while I did a creepy vibe art. XD
(This is like my first time added a speedpaint on a post here XD)
