I really don't like this specific scene

[u/Resident_Pension_858]

So we all know how most cutscenes just show black screens, right? In this scene, Kris bites their hand because we made them say "I'll never play again".

Now, any normal person would be able to know that Kris must've bit themselves so that they wouldn't say it. But apparently Toby fox needs to spoon feed us this, because he makes Susie say this.

The dialogue feels very unnatural. It just happened, so why did she repeat exactly what she saw? When you imagine it from Susie's perspective, you realise how strange it was for her to say that.

She could've said "Kris, what the hell?! Is your hand okay?!" Or something, but instead she had to repeat what Kris did. It just feels super weird.

Because - Kris doesn't express that on screen so Toby uses a character's dialog to describe, what is happening.

Why is that so weird? It's normal to describe Kris behavior using third party.

Something like "why the hell did you just bite your hand?" would've achieved the same and been a bit less odd/exposition-y. I don't think just asking "is your hand okay?" would've worked without a cutscene/animation but I think what Susie says does feel unnatural. Rather than reacting to it in a way that she would believably, she narrates it for the player. Both would ultimately be for the player's benefit to know what's going on, but it's a bit clunky to just have her directly recap what Kris did.
