What game or scene in a game took you the longest time before you understood the meaning behind it? (alien.top)

When I was young and had a super nintendo I loved playing Super Mario RPG.

I'm playing the remake and I'm at the scene after defeating Valentina. Mallow goes into the castle and Mario was left standing outside.

Back then I didn't know why Mario pulled out an umbrella and it rained. I just realised after 20 years of playing the original that Mario knew it was going to rain because whenever Mallow cries it rains; Mario knew that Mallow would get all emotional when meeting his parents for the first time.

Blew my mind.

Even if they're not the focus. A trans person just existing in any media is "pushing an agenda", it's crazy. It's the same with POC and any other non-straight person. A gay couple in a movie? AGENDA! A black woman playing a mermaid? AGENDA! The fact is, popular media has shunned and focused on straight white people for so long, any diversion (even if it's based on reality) is a fucking agenda to these people.
