This little guy is absolutely bonkers and it was fascinating. Intense, extremely strong in his beliefs, so loyal it borders on the ridiculous.
We were like 5 messages deep before we started absolutely walling each other to death. These were hands down the longest messages I wrote or received in the entire game.
I'm just gonna give you a taste of his thoughts on the game, putting aside our pretty fun talks about computer science and the nature of integrity and sleep and piracy.
"The coolest person should win" is definitely a new school of Survivor thought. Should we perhaps fund research into it?
Just, like, oh my gosh. This dude was ready to die for anyone he decided he liked and gave out that amount of liking like candy based on, I don't know, some sort of speech analysis? I don't think I've ever encountered someone on here who was so utterly dedicated to friendship. I mean real life friendship I could understand this but man that's not what we're talking about here. Just... wow! So MUCH!
It's just incredible to me that this is how someone could expect this game to go. "Yes, anyone who goes against me or my friends should be completely cut off (how will we get to the end doing this? it's a mystery!) and when we all get to the end together, my friends and I will hold a tribunal to decide who is the coolest and the rest of us will merrily fall on our swords!" I just, what??
How do you have this strong an opinion about someone you just met! Holy shit! I love the casual inclusion of a caveat. "This person is EVIL TO THE CORE and you should DESTROY THEM IMMEDIATELY but I could be wrong" is such a hardcore statement.
I can't say I was that surprised to learn that he apparently went completely insane when separated from said friends. But, like, thanks for making the game more interesting and hitting me with some truly scorching takes. Amazing.

Looks like you got hit pretty hard there. With my team I managed to get some a really solid friend that I can trust as far as you can in survivor and we coordinated pretty well. I dislike lies and betrayals for the most part, believing that the cooler of a person you are the more you deserve to win. I am brand new to this game though, so I might be a bit naive when it comes to it. HOWEVER, honesty really is the best way to go I found. It's how I met a new friend here, and how I plan to meet more!"The coolest person should win" is definitely a new school of Survivor thought. Should we perhaps fund research into it?

For now I'll hold off on referring to them by name, but if I get a good sense of you and the opportunity arises, I'll let be sure to let ya know! They're a great fellow that doesn't like conflicts much. Betrayals of a friend I hope to do full out front if possible, where it turns into a battle of influence and charisma over deceit. If I were to lose that I wouldn't mind much. It is true that friends change over time and you need to be sure they're still your friends after being exposed to others, and so your advice is solid and well-appreciated. I will be sure to judge impartially and critically so as not to ruin the chance of others who deserve to survive. Finding people you can call friends comes through sheer luck, especially in this game, so it's understandable. Eventually you'll find people you find pretty cool and then get the chance to learn more about them. I'll hold no grudge against you if you choose to protect one you can call a true friend, for that is a noble act deserving respect. If it does come to that I can at most ask of you to consider talking about it to me first, as I have no regrets in putting my life on the line to help someone I respect.

Getting betrayed absolutely sucks, no matter when or where it happens. If you expect it to some degree whatever, but to be betrayed by a friend is one of the lowest things that can happen. It completely violates what a friendship is about, and at the same time undermines the one being betrayed in almost every way. They're essentially saying your friendship was worth less than whatever gain they got, and to call that a friendship is to spit on its name. Personally offended for sure, from what I've gathered you're not a person that deserves betrayal in any sense of the word, and for someone to go against that deserves either a big tell-off + rant and a subsequent social ignoring, or in the case of this game death. I have never played this game before but I have analyzed it well, and I have promised to be true to myself the entire way. You seem like a fantastic person judging solely on your experience and the way you speak (not the pirate language, literally you don't seem to have any bad ulterior motives from what I can read and are quite the honest person), and I want you to do the best you possibly can.It's just incredible to me that this is how someone could expect this game to go.

Revali is probably pretty cool given that one of my old members likes him, but Kass is evil to the core so do watch out for him and make sure to go for the throat given the opportunity (based on what I've heard + what I've gauged based on his messages, could be wrong, however that's my current intuition on him).How do you have this strong an opinion about someone you just met!
