now, Susie is a teenager. so of course she is going to make mistakes in trying to give a complete explanation of what "real life" is. but my problem is that people reviewing the game just kept repeating this claim unquestioningly like it was true, and I can't remember a single video where I saw anyone stop and go "...wait, but that technically isn't true, Susie just doesn't know that battles are found in history books and playing cards and console RPGs are loose references to history."
it only really gets worse when there is a historian character in the game who essentially tells Susie that she can change history just by not believing everybody else's narratives, and everybody just repeats that uncritically too.
