Have you ever fallen in love with a video game character Sup Forums?
Yes, and her name is Mei~
Subaru in .hack//Quarantine
She's actually not really Subaru, but a vagrant AI that contains copies of Subaru's memories and thinks she's Subaru, until she has a moment of clarity during emails with Kite and realizes she isn't a real person
As she tries to focus and understand her situation, Kite just tells her, "don't worry about those things, okay?" and being able to try to calm her down while she was trying not to lose her mind was very sad but also heartwarming to finally be able to interact with one of the VAI's, like Lycoris from the AI Buster novel, except AI Subaru wasn't in the situation where she "had to die" and instead could live by what Morgana said to Tsukasa, "do as you will" and so this Subaru lived in the beautiful World
Her thought process also reminded me of the Replicants from Blade Runner, in her realization that her memories are not her own, and that she has to come to terms with that fact that she is merely a simulacrum of someone else who is still very much alive and returns to The World later
It was even stranger because she was admittedly an AI...in a singleplayer game, which is filled with AI, so in a way she was actually breaking the 4th Wall in a sense when she confirmed what she was, and when Kite spoke to her, I felt as if I was speaking through the 4th Wall, so say the only thing I would have been able to say in that situation, which felt as if I was "crossing reality" so to speak
I used to imagine her just playing inside my PS2 all day and night, by herself, alone, standing around and staring at the small details of textures in dungeons, like a prisoner stares at the stones of his walls, and trying to enjoy her existence in such a beautiful land (the land of Twilight) before she was finally erased
Its probably just remnants of my youthful stupidity, but I still feel sad to this day, imagining her waiting, sleeping in total darkness, The World in total pitch black darkness, just waiting until my PS2 turns on
My waifu of all time.
Only in the first game though
I think she's swell and has good fashion sense.
