Why is the trope "Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane" listed here? Wernicke, the one who proposed and created the damn thing,explains what is the Walrider crystal clear, and it's clearly mundane. Are you guys seriously thinking the statements of insane and borderline dement people who know next to nothing about the Walrider suggesting that it's a "god" is enough to warrant this trope? This is made clear in the game itself, when Father Martin promises to resurrect after his death in the name of the Walrider. He doesn't. So i'm removing this section, because it's made clear it's a mundane thing.

The two entries under Fan Disservice and Faux Affably Evil, describing the twins, engage in fanciful speculation that the twin characters might intend to sexually assault the protagonist, speculation unsubstantiated by the text. They're also a little too similar, unintentionally surely, to Gay Panic (the characters are naked, they surely must want to rape my player avatar!) due to the hyperbolic nature of the assertion. Revise, consider deletion.

Agreed on that point. There's never any indication that they intend to rape the main character. That's the Groom's job.

Why doesn't this page have a "Headscratchers" section yet? I'm sure a good chunk of us have questions we want to get out there about this game.

Prolly because nobody made one so far.
