Aight, so I just finished the game 100% (and blind) in about 3 or 4 hours I think?? And I gotta say, this was a pretty good game, especially when compared to the previous POPGOES Arcade's. The combat system was pretty neat, though grinding for the BB thing wasn't exactly fun, and the Dead Bonnie fight was fucking infuriating. I breezed through most of the game quite quickly until that.
Also, when I accidentally found the key and later on triggered the thing for the obligatory POPGOES Arcade secret ending (the Blackrabbit quest) I lowkey shat myself. Like I said, this playthrough was completely blind, which not only was a first for me, but I was just sat in here literally terrified in anticipation of some jumpscare (though the one we got ended up being a little underwhelming??? As in, it didn't make me jump. But that's just me being nitpicky I guess). Also the FIND HER quest took me way longer than it should have. I knew it was the well (and I found that OTHER easter egg too) but I just lost sight of it for some reason. I mean it IS 3am here and I was very tired.
One other thing is the theme here of "dying by one other's had and be given a second chance". As soon as this came up, I immediately thought "Bonnie". Because as we know, Fritz kills her, and she ends up coming back as Blackrabbit (and if we're going from the lore mentioned in those extra info things, she got killed by him intentionally?? I have mixed feeelings about that angle).
But nitpicking, rambling and otherwise aside, I enjoyed this a lot. And considering POPGOES has been one of my favourite fan-games, with how much thought has gone into literally everything related to it, I'm really looking forward to POPGOES 2020 when it releases. I wish y'all well.
EDIT: Okay, actually I was wrong. I didn't 100% the game until this morning. Apparently there was ANOTHER secret ending which I missed, but it's done now. But I gotta say, that Popgoes model? Lookin' fiiiine.
