Do you think adding more details to the game's story after around halfway in would help improve the article's quality? Superjustinbros. (talk) 03:35, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

One thing I don't like about most Wikipedia articles is that they're full of spoilers without any warnings. If we can avoid the spoilers, then sure. Wikipedian192 (talk) 05:46, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dubious plot summary

"While he later meets, romances, and marries her; she thinks he doesn't really love her because he forgot their first encounter, and is slowly driven insane. This eventually leads, indirectly, to her death …" This is very much at odds with my understanding of the story, which is that she knows he loves her but, affected by her life-long pervasive developmental disorder, tries to remind him of their first meeting via origami rabbits. Her death resulted from her refusal of treatment for her later fatal illness, as she wanted their money to instead fund the completion of a house built next to their 'adopted' lighthouse, Anya. — Harlequin (talk) 00:56, 8 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is entirely correct, as innumerable details within the game suggest (the fact that she cut her hair to the length it was during that first meeting, the fact that all the white rabbits symbolize the stars/lighthouses and the dual-colored one represents the constellation they made up, her insistence in asking him "what else", as if trying to trigger his memories, etc.). And therefore, I'm going to change the summary right now.

There are a ton of GameSpot refs on this article right now. They're not listed as a generally reliable source—ideally those links will be replaced with something more notable. czar · · 00:18, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
