I read it at work and tried to resist crying like a baby, but when I got home, I let it all out.
Hopefully this is the right forum to post this..

It was really good, though. Except that you kind of remember what the 'Mom' thing was for in the game in the first place. But still, the concept stands.
Thank you Elriel! :D

The "autoMom" feature did sort of put a dent in the story, at first, but even if it was only that, the weight of the revelation that their mother was probably still thinking of them even during gametime remains. And if this were the case, you might thank AC for including that feature and helping this one person along emotionally.
It's just something that no other game can do, ya know?

It DID make me a bit saddened, however. I'm not heartless! D:

This comic is rather personal to me as I'm in a familar situation as the author. I introduced my mother into Animal Crossing about a year ago and she loves it so much. She hasn't missed a day of playing it since then and has done everything to do and still keeps playing. And she even send me presents too. I'm so glad that my mother isn't suffering like the mother in the comic...but still...

Oh my, that comic made me cry. That was extremely touching and it has a very good message. AC is a cute game and this was a wonderful way that the two of them connected with one another.
Thanks Elriel for the wonderful Edgey siggy and the beautiful Phoenix/Edgeworth avy!

How dare you say that, you stupid heartless cow. Do you get the feeling one gets when a loved one has died! You disgust me, and I hope you rot in hell.
THE DOG ONE WAS SO SAD! I only saw the first few seconds and I had to click off, it's so sad...

Please! No internet-fights! Flame-wars are the kind of things people make half-baked jokes about.

Save it for the debate threads.
Back on topic, and saving the world from another waste of time:
I was a little surprised. Not many things like that happen in reality, but if it was true, then it is a bit of a sad story.
Think of it like this: the family is joking with this wheelchair-bound mother about her Animal Crossing obsession while the whole time she is playing to give her son gifts (on the game, of course). Then she dies, the son finds out what she was up to, and just like that, there is no way to thank her or let her know how he feels. She is gone, now and forever, all that remains of her is memories (and a corpse, but I am trying to be dramatic here, so shush!).
I remember a quote from a song I heard once (or a game, maybe both
). It says:"People die of disease and accident. Death comes suddenly and there is no notion of good or bad. It leaves not a dramatic feeling but great emptiness. When you lose someone you love very much, you feel this big empty space and think, 'If I had known this was coming, I would have done things differently!'."CLICK QUOTE FOR LINK TO SONG
Regardless of if it was a real story, or a clever piece of fiction, my point is it made me think. As long as something gets you thinking, then it has done it's job.
