It's enjoyable but that element definitely annoyed me. It's happened other media forms, so I shouldn't be surprised

It's quite annoying because everyone's so used to non-Western cultures being used for mysticism and allure around a White character, many don't see the issue with it.

Oh and the civilization was enslaved...

On the surface the game is enjoyable, but how the narrative deals with culture left a lot to be desired, and could be seen as quite tone deaf

It's giving someone always wanted to tied to an "exotic" culture without actually being from the culture

A random White woman from England, no cultural ties the island,
has an illness/power that is tied to an a civilization that existed 1000s years ago on an island 74 miles east of Tahiti. No explanation. But she uses phrases like "people like me" and
"I'm going back home" so is she Polynesian

"She is our daughter"? Alright.

It feels like the Polynesian culture is just there to make the game "interesting" but I'm going to circle back once I finish, in case there's an explanation at the end

Was lovely meeting you

Thank you!
